This week's #ThursdayFiveList theme, courtesy of @jessica is #StreamsOfDreams. It's been a long while since I've done one of these. Taking a literal approach, five tracks came to mind. In no particular order, here they are:
A Dream - Lou Reed & John Cale - Songs for Drella (1990)This album was a rare joint effort between Reed and Cale after both attended Andy Warhol's memorial service in 1987. https://youtu.be/uSxRN0pNciA
In Dreams - Roy Orbison - In Dreams (1963)A classic Roy Orbison track that will be very familiar to fans of David Lynch's film Blue Velvet. https://youtu.be/-8Jz3VW7rYk
An Occasional Dream - David Bowie - Space Oddity (1969)An early Bowie track that remains a great example of his ability to weave a story through song.https://youtu.be/UMU261WsLlc
City of Dreams - Talking Heads - True Stories (1986)A song of hope, in spite of everything. https://youtu.be/HTZarY-2NQU
Dreams - Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (1977)An amazing track that, like the album itself, was able to rise above it all.https://youtu.be/Y3ywicffOj4
