Thread: Songs You've Heard in Dreams

Has anyone heard full songs during sleep paralysis. I heard a Metallica song and another song I don't remember. But its amazing how the mind remembers the lyrics even though I don't.

This one time, I dreamt I was playing an entirely self-made piano peice. I used to do basic piano lessons, but no way close to the level in the dream. It was so amazing, but I knew I wouldn't be able to remeber what I was playing, just the high I experienced.

I didn't remember dreams ever until I joint DV and after I joined my first 8 dreams all had songs going during the dream, metallica enter sandman and then some avenged Sevenfold

I wonder if we can discover why some people have dreams with music more often than others. I listen to music all the time and make music but I still don't have music in my dreams often. I hear voices and sometimes music when I lie down though.
I somewhat agree with the person who said that the music can communicate the message of the dream. I think the meaning would be contained in the main lyrics that you remember though.

I accidentally altered my dreams lyrics. It was actually the word "do" twice. There was no curse word. I like it more that way.

The last dream I had with music contained Everything Will Be Alright by The Killers.
It's not as good as Albion but it's what I dreamed.

I can't remember ever hearing music in my dreams until a few weeks ago. Now however I've had 8 dreams with songs in. For example I had one dream where two guys made up new lyrics to piano man by Billy Joel and another where I sang you raise me up together with Robbie Williams in front of a huge audience. It's not really the kind of music I normally listen to, but I still woke up from both dreams feeling very happy.

I once had a dream where I was in a park and playing White Wedding by Billy Idol on guitar. And unlike in real life, my guitar playing here didn't suck xD

Boom boom pow by the black eyed peas.

Just last night I remember listening to 'born to be wild' for about 20 seconds, when just at the point where the refrain was about to kick in some asshole turned it off. Man was I pissed!

I only hear whale breathing while I was wandering around the beach.

If interested in some investigation, perhaps mention things from the nights/days before dreams in which you hear music. If you usually hear music, mention what might be the reason for why you're dreams didn't contain music one night.
You could even write down all the details of that day/night somewhere.

I'll do it next time I have a dream with music. Unfortunately, I didn't write down that last dream with music because it was so brief.

I can honestly say I've never heard music in a dream. I've heard sound mutliple times, but never actually music. Which I find wierd, as music is an incredibly large part of my life. That's something I'd like to do in a dream, compose music. Interesting thought

Whenever I hear a song in my dream, it's always messed up. Like, once it was the song "Bad Romance" (Lady Gaga) to the tune of "Fly on the Wall" (Miley Cyrus ) with the chorus of a few different songs mixed together in the chorus with the word "overflow" thrown in random places sung by Cadia.

Confused? So was I... quite an interesting combination.

Maybe music pleases a psychological need and we get our fill while we're awake. Maybe we even get overload.

I did hear music from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest once.

Paul McCartney heard "Yesterday" in a dream.

He was convinced it was an old song until he looked for it and couldn't find it.

Pretty amazing.

I heard the song "HillBilly Man" being played on a banjo by a random DC

Holy shit. Just last night i had a dream that I was starting to take Ritalin for ADD, which has been misconceived throughout my whole span of school. I love that song now.

A dream I once had was about the moon crashing to earth from zelda majoras mask, the final hours theme except it was a remixed version of the song it sounded like a orchestrated song. etc. Epic song wish i could hear it again.

I was applying for jobs since I'm an adult and, as it got late, I found this late night dance club for kids hidden in an alley. At first I didn't recognize anyone and got ridiculed for doing a dance move so I left with a stolen pillow. Then I came back and I realized a bunch of friends from a high school class were there. I heard this song playing although the guitar had extra effects on it. The Shins "A Comet Appears"

I've had a couple of songs appear in my dreams! Prove It by Television was once just playing as a soundtrack to one. Jimi Hendrix's Valleys of Neptune was in my dream, where a girl I liked was singing it to me, and I was singing along. I don't know the lyrics so well to the song, but she was singing it perfectly, but I only filled in the words I knew. That must mean that my subconscious picks up and remembers a song very well, whereas my concious self was struggling with it. Then I was playing Young Man Blues by The Who on guitar in another dream.

I'm pretty sure there was another one but its all I can think of right now.

The other night, I heard a piece of background music from an online game I play very clearly in one of my dreams. (DJ entry here)

Most of the music in my dreams are invented by my subconscious.

But last night, I clearly heard RV356 as I fell asleep in a dream.
