It seems that where I live that nobody likes Dreamland which I thought was strange because everyone loved A/L/S. Not that they're the same song or anything, but both very capable of radio success, or at least that's what I like to think...

At least people where you live have heard it! Most people here don't seem to know it unless its on the radio, and radio won't start playing it for another month or so.

If they do make a video for Dreamland(and they should!), I think it would be cool if they some how incorporated the "new Saul" from the cover of BB in it.

And I vote for it to not be directed by Weintrob.

Likewise.

No offense to the guy, his style just doesn't mesh well.

All his videos are full of running people. That just wouldn't work with this one.

I imagine OLP performing in a white room, similar to Automatic Flowers but lighter, and this white room gets images of this dreamland drawn onto them throughout the song.

If you could only see it in my head, it would be so much cooler than what it sounds like.

So you mean it will be the video for Life?

Holy shit... That one slipped my mind... Maybe not then. They're too similar.

Yes anyone but Weintrob, sorry but his videos are boring and pretty much uncreative in relation to the band.

I haven't heard it on my radio station yet, but I've noticed Clumsy has been added into rotation on the pop station. You can imagine my extreme delight as I turned on the radio on the way to school and heard it. At least the upcoming show is creating a little bit of something.

I don't wanna seem like a dick here but, does anybody else feel like the best single so far from BB "Dreamland" is getting the shaft with no video or picture? Maybe they are just focusing on the new cd, which I would be happy with if that is the case.

I'd be surprised if it got a video (unless it got big, in which case they would make a video to keep the hype going). Their third singles haven't really gotten love since Happiness. Mafia's video wasn't officially released until 2009, though I hear some group of fans had it long before then ;). Made of Steel didn't have a video. WTFBU only had a video of a live performance.

So is the final word on this single that there will be no video...and I'm still waiting to hear it on the radio.

I've only heard it on the radio once, and haven't seen it on any charts?

I've never even heard a Burn Burn song on the radio! But Dreamland is by far the most non popular. No music sites have really recognized it either.
