So, yeah, didn't have one to interrupt this dream. My current one is pretty gentle, though. <BR/><BR/>These tunes were only either copyrighted or skronking free association. Will keep an ear for royalty free dream songs, though, at least until DRM (dream rights management) shuts down my free dream music. <BR/><BR/>Your story reminds me of a favorite story: my friend Jason Tumlinson dreamt one night that he was taught how to play "Paint It, Black" by Ron Wood himself. He woke up, and remembered how it went. So he rushed to grab a guitar ...<BR/><BR/>... and it was completely wrong.ddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01009382323004019335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827327176195253298.post-49431617237720355722009-01-02T14:07:00.000-08:002009-01-02T14:07:00.000-08:00Do you wake up to an alarm clock?

I usually only remember dreams when I wake up naturally, either because I have to pee in the middle of the night or because I've actually slept enough (the latter still not being as often as it should be). Alarm clocks often wake us up in the wrong part of the sleep cycle, inhibiting dream recall. Or so goes my theory.<BR/><BR/>Do you remember any of the tunes from your dreams? If you do, they're royalty-free, so you should record them. I once had a mini tape recorder (which I believe you gave to me) near my bed, and I actually had a dream song that, as far as I can tell, was completely original. I was so psyched, I recorded what I could remember on tape, and later fleshed it out.<BR/><BR/>It has remained one of the most frustrating songs I've ever come up with, because it seemed so promising, and yet I've done nothing with it. I've done nothing with any of my song ideas, but that one really annoys me.<BR/><BR/>I think the Michael Moore dream was due to his telepathic mind control ability. He's probably coming out with a special edition DVD soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
