Thread: Songs You've Heard in Dreams

Thanks for the link, ViewingDreams. I only listened to the first minute so far, but it sounds epic.

I can only remember a couple that I've heard in my dreams.

In one dream, I was on a plane with a few of the characters from the TV series Supernatural, and I think we were flying just above a layer of clouds at sunset so there was gold light filling the cabin. I kept hearing the first minute or so of Severe Medication by Two Steps From Hell.

In another, I was with the characters of another old TV show, and everything was in slow motion and we were dancing and rolling around on a sunny day in a field at the edge of a cliff, with the first couple minutes of To Know My Enemy from The Last Samurai soundtrack playing in the background.

Usually the music in my dreams is original.
Once I had a dream where me and my father were eating and having a conversation when Albion by Babyshambles came on the restaurant's radio.

YouTube - Kingdom Hearts Music - Traverse Town

lol

I once heard someone singing a song with lyrics that went "Give god a dead rat, I bet he'll have sex with it."

Sweet Song by Blur. "It takes time to see what you've done, so I lift my hands up slowly." I heard like twenty seconds of it.

I listened to what I think was a made up song last night. It was amazing tho, it was something metal
that I was showing to a classmate. xD

I had a dream last night that Kim Junsu ran out on stage with a guitar singing a song about cheesecake. It went something like, "the cheesecake will be gone, then there will be another cheesecake."

I sing all the time in my dreams one time I sang dreams to dreams or just hummed it. I also sang another song that I created The Land of Dreams. I'm going to try to sing follow the road next.

first of all have you ever had a song stuck in your head and whatever you do you just cant stop thinking if it or if you saw something nasty like a shock site and keep remembering 2 girls and 1 cup. remember that. one of the first times i tried to wild i kept hearing these really awesome rap songs that were just awesome. i didn't qant to listen to them too hard because i wanted to dream but they were almost perfect

One of the originals I dreamed had lyrics. I only remember the last line, "but if you ever wanna f*** me, you know I'll do you right here and now."
My subconscious needs to work on it's grammar.

The intro to For Your Entertainment by Adam Lambert (was playing it on my dream keyboard)
Careless Whisper by Wham! (A part of the song had different lyrics, one of my friends in the dream said he heard a "bad" word in the song LOL!)
How Will I Know except instead of it being sung by Whitney Houston, it was sung by what sounded like a man.

When I was about 11 years old, I had a dream where I heard a Creedence Clearwater Revival song, and at the end of the song, John Fogerty kept singing "Yeah" over and over, and it turned out to be my dad snoring. I didn't realize that until after I woke up.

oh man, almost every night theres a song playing in my dream,
like
Land down under (men at work) this is the one I remember the best it was some insane flute solo of this... and I mean insanely epic
then theres mostly random techno that my mind makes up
and some elevator music sometimes (like all the time)
and about 90% of the time I get some random song stuck in my head after I wake up every morning (usually not the song that was in the dream the previous night though)

I recently had a dream with a couple songs in it. Maybe this thread got to me.

Aenima by Tool and a song by Selena

Amazing experiences.

Always ambient guitar music. I'll hear instrumental tracks to songs, but always the guitar is dominant. I play guitar, so maybe I associate with it. I've never heard lyrics in songs unless I was playing something intentionally through a music player of some sort. I hear guitar music in the background all the time. I've pointed out "Message in a Bottle" by the Police, a bunch of U2, and LOADS of Explosions in the Sky, guess because those songs fit as ambient music fairly well. No really intense songs at all, and no lyrics. Mainly guitar.

I want to be able to get lyrical inspiration for writing songs from dreams, but I don't think this is a really good sign towards that.

When I was a kid I was really afraid of silence, so I played loud music every night, all night. Anyways, this caused me to constantly have music in my sleep. Also my current alarm plays music to wake me up, which sometimes shows up in my dreams. But I've never had music in my dreams otherwise, I don't think.

I once heard myself playing the black keys on a keyboard.

I'm not sure if I've ever heard music in dreams that I've heard in real life. :/ I once randomly sang with some dude and he played guitar. -__-' It actually sounded pretty good and it had something to do with morning and eagles. Heh, and since it was a dream I had a better singing voice and the guy was pretty good too. :d I've also had a few dreams where I've tried to play piano, but I usually mess up.

With very rare exceptions, every one of my dreams has a song. Usually there is a lyric in the song that communicates the essential message of the dream. Occasionally there are original piano compositions. If there is no song, that too is an essential part of the dream, and hear something deeper in the silence. Sometimes I sing in dreams, and can feel the control over the muscles in my throat and mouth in great detail, though I lack that control when awake.

Here's a song that comes up occasionally, as a regret for having fallen into mortality, or as a warning for people who think they can play around with power with impunity:

YouTube - Black Sabbath - Too Late (with lyrics)

A softer version:

My dreams are usually entirely visual; I rarely even hear dialogue, let alone music. But last year, I heard the Spongebob Squarepants theme song in one of them O.o

I once heard music in a lucid dream--the dream was not visual, but entirely in sound. It was unlike anything I had ever heard before. It was a piano accompanied by guitar, music without rythm, flowing like a stream through time. They complimented each other. It was beautiful.

Another lucid dream, only in sound, a rendition of Rainbow Race, it was perfect.

hahaha i love this cause i had a great one the other day.

I was just about to wake up at the end of my dream the theme song from the boondock saints started playing and I said something to someone talking shit on my personality, "fuck you my true homies(reffering to my good group of friends I left when I moved a few months back) love me even though I am a dick sometimes. It was something to that effect it was much better and bolder sounding in the dream though .

That was a magnificent way to start a beautifully morning.

A couple of nights ago, I dreamed of an alternate version of Franco Zeffirelli's "Romeo and Juliet." The theme song from the original (which I know very well) played very clearly in my dream.

I don't really hear music, but my sister said she heard this song in a dream and it was really creepy. This is one of her favorite songs and she didn't hear it since like a week before the dream
