Dream Lover Lyrics

Cover art for Dream Lover lyrics by Big Star

such a beautiful, twisted song. in someone else's hands it would simply be a pretty ballad, but alex twists it into something much stranger and more disturbing. i love the way he drawls "play it for me, guitarist", letting lee baker improvise a great, ragged solo. and then there's that wordless grunting that almost turns into screaming...the whole "third" album still sounds ahead of its time, or removed from time altogether.
