The title.
Or have you ever picked up an mp3 player or ipod and put the headphones in and listen to whatever music is on there?
I wonder.. if your mind makes up its own music? :huh:
Interesting.

Of course you can, why would you think you couldn't? Many well known composers have pulled music from their dreams. I create new music in my dreams quite consistently, and many of my dreams, both lucid and nonlucid have soundtracks.
That's really cool! For some reason, I can't hear much in my (regular) dreams.
Yeah I have had inspiration for a song but haven't created one
Sometimes during SP, I'll hear songs and people talking. A few times I've heard a radio playing in my head, with songs and people talking in between songs about random things that made perfect sense to me at the time.
Best way to do it, get a song stuck in your head during an ld, focus on it, and it should eventually start playing clearer and clearer, I haven't tried this yet though. But I'd bet it'd work if you could focus on it well enough.
What gets me is when I'll be singing the most beautiful song in my dream, then wake up and can't remember hardly any of the words. Too bad I'm not a musician or I might have been able to write the melody, like notes on a music sheet.
I tried to play Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on a piano during a lucid, but irrespective of what keys I pressed, all I heard was Guile's theme from Street Fighter II.
Yes, being right into music I have it a lot in my dreams. On multiple occasions I can recall dreaming about playing in my school band. I wasn't reading the notes of the staff but was playing it from memory and could hear all the other instruments playing their parts perfectly too. In fact, in both dreams it was the same song, Australian Medley. Also I have played a mounted bamboo xylophone, my electric keyboard, a celeste, guitar, strange instruments that don't exist, and played a rock song with my good friend Indy, we were awesome, by the way. The plot for another one of my non-lucids (more common than I'd like) included myself going on a rampage whilst Enya's On My Way Home was playing. The song didn't quite fit the mood of what was happening but it was played perfectly. On many occasions I recall writing songs in a non-lucid but buggered if I can remember the melodies. Yes, our minds are wonderful devices are they not?
I've heard a song blasting out from a nearby radio player in my dream. My friend had a dream where she was composing a song.
Besides, what's not possible in a dream? ;)
I was in a dream (I didn't know it) and I left my house, it was really sunny and bright and then I heard Buzzin' by Mann. It was so loud but at that point in life I was thinking about that song a lot so it didn't register as weird, anyway long story short it was actually an FA.
I don't have music in my dreams, but some people have music in their dreams regularly. Many composer find inspiration in their dreams.
Thomas Yuschak says (in Advanced Lucid Dreaming The Power of Supplements) that he has music in his dreams when he takes specific supplements. He reports having great soundtracks in dreams with nicotine. However nicotine has bad side effects, is highly addictive, and causes long-time desensitisation of acetylcholine receptors (and therefore complicates you LDing in future), so I recommend you to NOT try it.
He also says that he has music in dreams with choline (salt) + galantamine + GPC (glycerophosphocholine) combo, which triggers very long and high-level LDs very effectively and is much safer than Nicotine.
However it is very individual IMO and many will hear music in their dreams by just willing to.
I very regularly have music in my non-lucids and lucids, in fact one of my favourite things in a lucid dream is to 'soundtrack', it's amazing how perfectly my brain plays songs I've heard. Sometimes in my non-lucids I've heard bands I like cover songs by other bands and it sounds pitch perfect.
I just heard one this night :)
I was having a DEILD and as I were falling asleep, I imagined a song being played (i think it was a John Mayer song) it started to get clearer and clearer and by the time i was in the dream, if felt as if it were literally playing in front of me :D
Finished filling out my dream journal from my posts on another site that really wasn't a dream site. I included a dream where I was a woman singing, you should check it out.

That's a really cool dream EarthInferno! I've always had a small goal to hear myself sing in dreams. :)
I wish you well in achieving that. I think that if you listen to a band you really like a whole bunch and can sing their songs it will increase your chances of singing happening in your dreams.
my singing dream was like, ME: "Best dream ever!"
And yes I like the disney movie, Tangled. That's my misquote of Rapunzel: "Best day ever!"
Oh my gosh I just love that movie! :)
Definitely, even some songs that ive never heard before! :rockon:
I've heard music in a few of my dreams; it seems like it's more common in vivid ones though. Sometimes it'll be pop songs I can recognize, sometimes just nonsense that sounds like a familiar song I can't place.
I keep waking up with these songs running through my head, like my sleeping brain was thinking of the song. Now I'm pretty sure I didn't hear the song in my dreams, but when I wake up it is there. I woke up with a the Mission UK song stuck in my head this morning called: All I want is you. Anyone else experience this?

It is totally possible. In fact last night I had a dream where I was listening to Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd and in the part of the last solo y picked up my guitar and started playing it. It sounded exactly the same as it is. But of course, you need to have the songs recorded in your mind hehe.
I know exactly what you mean, EarthInferno! It's like that thing when you park your car interrupting a song that's currently on the radio, and then that specific song is stuck inside your head the rest of the day.
yeah you can :), ive heard music from avatar the legend of aag, ive heard Iron maiden, Judas priest and some some that my mind created that were awesome :D
I have heard music in my dreams and I have even had the songs going on in my head.
When my dreams make music it might be a song I know but it's usually messed up.
I've also heard music from my iPod in my dreams if I fell asleep with it on.
