As I said to you before. I think this is one of the best songs Raine ever wrote. SO postive and y et has some down parts. In the end it makes you feel good. Whenever I hear this song can't help but smile. Plus always reminds me of Hawaii.. " Sun on my face, head in the clouds" and ' the sky is blue"
I going to send an email to NYC station to see if they will play it.

My local radio sucks, but I emailed a friend who is a DJ in my hometown, and she's gonna try and get it on the air.

In this dreamland, the kids are alright, and the sky is blue!
Good choice, good choice. People will dig this. Mainstream stations will lap this bad boy up.

I'm really liking all the happy and positive people! I might have to go back and re-check the thread but I don't think there has been a negative thing said about releasing this as a single (yet)!

It sucks.
Ok, just kidding. Mostly. It's a good song, generally. But I do think the live version had more energy. The album version was a bit too polished.

Haha, I knew I was setting myself up for that when I was typing it!

A/L/S is a bit better, I think. They are very different songs, though. But to me A/L/S seems more "classic".

Hey I really liked Innocent and Angels/Losing/Sleep
not including the Burn Burn Stuff.
I have to say this is one cd that I love almost every song on it. Last CD I felt that way about was Spiritual Machines

I love A/L/S, but DREAMLAND is right up there with it, two totally different songs.

Okay, A/L/S is better, but besides that Dreamland is the best in years.

No single beats SOT.
I would roll up those lyrics into a fatty a smoke it like a bong hit. Musical and lyrical magic...

I'm picturing you with the psychedelic background and a smoke filled room, sitting in a bean bag chair. It made me laugh.
