DREAM DreamFrom: kazy99@ivnet.com
CommentsWe saw the movie "Boiling Point" with the soundtrack by Danny May Orchestra and he played Dream and many more songs by Johnny Mercer. We would love to have this sound track but are unable to find it. Could you help us. Also we would be satisfied with another artist singing this song. (Dream, that is). thank you for your help. kay and ken From: jimhtucson@aol.com

CommentsI direct a barbershop chorus, and we're working on an arrangement of "Dream". I'd like to be able to give the guys a little background on the song. Was it actually written for the movie "Daddy Long Legs", or was it written previously and used in the movie? Who did the original recording, and when? Would appreciate any information or someone steering me to where the information is located. Thanks.
The song DREAM, was written by Johnny Mercer in 1944/45. It was the theme song on his daily radio show, THE JOHNNY MERCER MUSIC SHOP. originally recorded by THE PIED PIPERS. It was subsequently used in Daddy Long Legs.

CommentsJohnny Mercer wrote the lyric and music to DREAM in 1944. It was written as a Pop arrangement and the group "The Pied Pipers" made it famous. It was the theme song on Johnny's radio show, Johnny Mercer's Music Shop, and sung at the completion of each show by the Pied Pipers. The show was broadcast in the States but in addition the Armed Forces Radio Stations transcribed it, minus commercials, and the dicks were sent abroad to the servicemen and women. Its subsequent use in shows, movies, was incidental. Also a big hit for Frank Sinatra. If you look at these sections I think that they will be of interest: http://www.johnnymercer.com/dream/dream.htm From: kent brick CommentsIs this play being performed anywhere now (Spring-summer 2000)?

CommentsDoes anyone know was there a CD made of the Broadway show DREAM? Is it still available for purchase and if so where might we find it. We were fortunate to see the production and would like the music from it.

Get in touch with that sundown fellow, As he tiptoes across the sand. He's got a million kinds of stardust, Pick your fav'rite brand,and: Dream when you're feelin' blue, Dream, that's the thing to do. Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air, You'll find your share Of memories there. So dream when the day is thru, Dream and they might come true, Things never are as bad as they seem, So dream,dream,dream.
This was the theme song of his show - Johnny Mercer's Music Shop..as well as the Broadway play in 1997.
