@paisleyization Maybe if people weren't doing drugs they might believe that. Anything from the time with brains and dreaming and mind was hallucinogen inspired, esp if it had sitar or backward tape loops (like this song). It was a great time.

Best band name ever.

3 people had nothing to dream last night...

that is a true story

The orgional words were "too much to drink" and they were forced to change it, that's the story at the time.

i had the album, and i was still playing it for my friends in 1976! they were telling me, "no, he's saying too much to drink" , well what do they know. i told them just to go back and eat some more brownies. :D then we put on "rush" 2112.

@awb5050 tony, i was only 10 and wasn't getting high yet. and yet even at that young age, i was getting high on the music of the '60s. wow, remember "gloria" she walked on up to my door, just about midnight, and i said g-l-o-rrrrrr-i. GLORIA ! oh, yah, man that was cool. and then the zombies "tell her no" and the troggs, "wild thing" yes, it's all coming back to me now....

@m1kewithaone it was a change for the better
-
many times i'd get high and play and sing this song a million times--------brings the past present. Love it! Part of me.-Tony!

Yes, those were special years. It was a time of great change, and conflict. And the music of those years is a reflection of what was happening in the world and in society. Too Much to Dream is an unforgettable part of that history.

What a great song this and others like it was!! I was in Jr High back then and songs like this were the "Heartbeat" of the day! There were a number of "pre-psychodelic" songs like this that were untouched by comparison. Groups like the Yardbirds, Them, Electric Prunes, Love (7+7 is) Blues Magoos, Music Machine, Count Five, Amboy Dukes, Status Quo (Matchstick Men), Seeds, Animals (When I was Young) and many more were WAY ahead of their time.
