I seen his brother at The Cloud
Looking next to Fly
His sticks was pounding on the drums
When I caught his eye
You know, my gosh, he looked at me

And he smiled at me
And he played to me
And I imagined that he spoke to me

Later on I found his friend
I said, "Do you know that guy?"
He said, "Hold, girl, well, sure I do"
And to my surprise
He's been saying, "Who's that girl?"

And he's feeling you
And he thinks you're cute
And he wants to try and talk to you

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me
(Dream to me)
I would have never known
I would have never known

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me

Through the crowd I'd seen a hand
Reaching out to me
I took a chance and took a grab
These hands were soft and sweet
I told him he was beautiful

And he played real sweet
And he smiled at me
And it was so real when he spoke to me

I put his digits in my phone
And I promise I'd call
Ran outside and told my girls
I spoke to drummer boy
I smiled the whole way to the crib

He was feeling me
And he spoke to me
I can't believe he spoke to me

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me
(Dream to me)
I would have never known
I would have never known

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me

Oh, my gosh, can you believe it's true?
Mr. Drummer Boy spoke to me, yes, it's true
Maybe soon, he will call me his girl
And I'll call him my boy, you know
He could play the drums for my shows

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me
(Dream to me)
I said, I'd have never known
I would have never known

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me, yeah

It's like a, a dream to me
I would have never known
I would have never known
It's like a dream to me
A dream, it's like a dream to me

It's like a dream to me
It's like a dream to me
(Dream to me)
I said, I'd have never known
I would have never known

And it's like a dream to me
It's like a dream

    I love this girl's voice and singing style, I just wish she'd sing less corny songs.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
