      Question Music in a dream

      I had this weird experience once. About 2 weeks ago I had a dream where I was in my class at HS, and I was doing my work. About 2 hours before going to sleep I was listening to the album Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd (Amazing album) and it was stuck in my head in the dream. I can still remember hearing the lyrics in my dream head, (The longer you live, the higher you fly ext..). Then when I woke up, it was still stuck in my head, as much as it was in the dream! Has anybody had this happen to them?
      Are you sure you are awake? Do a reality check.

      I regularly hear my favourite music reproduced perfectly note for note in both my lucid and non-lucid dreams. Maybe this is a quirk of my possibly more developed than most musical memory, but it's definitely a rewarding direction to pursue!

      Always, no sometimes think it's me,
      But you know I know when it's a dream
      I think I know I mean a yes
      But it's all wrong
      That is I think I disagree

      So, i am not alone then. I can hear a music in my dream too. It stucks in my head until now but the music
      is one of the worst music i've ever heard. Who knows, if you can lucid dreaming during this kind of event, it helps you compose a music or songs of your own.

      You are definitely not alone man. I've heard some of my favorite songs in my dreams as well. I've even heard music in my dreams that I've never heard before, and that music sounds amazing. It's unlike anything I've ever heard before. Whenever I feel like listening to music in my LDs, I'll get my ipod out and pick a song within the LD and it plays like a soundtrack for my adventures and what not. Try it out man.

      Happens to me all the time, both in dreams and on sleep onset. I will listen to a batch of music during the day and have a certain song or two stuck in my head when going to sleep (which ones in particular are different each time; there doesn't seem to be a set pattern). I often hear the music in my dreams, and it sounds just like it would in real life, maybe even better.

      It's common for me to experience unfamiliar new songs both in dreams and in dreamlets (the random thoughts that occur when I'm on the edge of sleep). I've even encountered original variations of familiar tunes that don't exist in waking life. This is all especially fascinating to me since I have no formal music training and don't really know anything about composing.

      The most impressive experience I encountered was in a lucid dream where I heard a song that, at the time, I had only heard a poor-quality VHS clip of from a TV broadcast. I caused the song to play and was amazed to find the audio fully cleaned up and all voice-overs removed (the latter being something which, to my knowledge, even the most sophisticated software still cannot do with a single monaural source file), even though I had never heard a “clean” copy of the song before.

      I have what everyone else described, but what I also often get is the song right before I wake up so that its stuck in my head all day! If I do not listen to it at some point during the day, it stays put in my brain.

      I feel music is like any kind of real life inspiration in dreams. Like something you visually experience, music is remembered to form part of your dreams later at night. I have had the same thing with food. Its all about those 5 senses you use. All of them are important!

      One Lucid dream I had, I was trying to talk to a Dream Character, and suddenly the loudest Dance/Trance/EDM music started playing so loud that I couldn't hear her. I lost my lucidity when I began dancing to the music. Sigh.

      Same thing here, my brain can reproduce music perfectly or create new stuff that sounds awesome.

      Cool question, I get music very accurately and sometimes even make my own music and sing. Recently I had a dream that I was in an empty subway train and this song started playing:

      The walls passing by in the window were all multicoloured. Very psychedelic.

      Had a dream I was at a Madness concert last night. They played all their hits.

      Some of my most vivid and emotional dreams were due to music taking an omnipresent role in the moment. However, for me it's always a "power-ballad" sort of tune that shows up. Pink Floyd, Elton John, Led Zeppelin, Genesis.....come to think of it only British classic rock

      I've heard, and sung, both existant and non-existant songs in my dreams. Once I heard a snippet, lyrics and all, of a song I had no memory of ever having heard, but I looked it up and it turned out it was a Tina Turner song. It must've stuck in the back of my head at some point, somehow.

      I have never actually heard a song that already existed, but I have created my own music before in a dream. There is one instant that sticks out in my head; I was in my freshman year of high school, and I was taking a music theory class. My teacher gave an assignment where everyone in the class had to write 32 measures of music. In my waking life, I for the life of me couldn't think of anything to write. However, in my dream I was able to create an amazing piece music within seconds. Sadly, when I woke up the next morning, I couldn't remember it to turn it in as my assignment.
