Dreams is a 2004 Tamil Malayalam romantic film directed by Kasthuri Raja and produced by Saraswathi Srikanth. The film featured Raja's son Dhanush in the lead role with Diya and Parul Yadav playing other pivotal roles. The film opened to negative reviews and became a failure at the box office.
The project was launched shortly after the success of Thulluvadho Ilamai in 2002, but as Dhanush's Kaadhal Kondein became a large success, Dreams was stalled temporarily as Dhanush's dates became blocked. The film ran into a legal tussle with the makers of his other film, Sullan, with the producers adamant that Dreams was released first although to no avail. The film's delay meant that Dhanush shot ten straight days for the project to complete it, while the delay also had resulted in failings in continuity. By the time of the release, the producer Srikanth and director Kastoori Raja were still engaged in a legal tussle.
"Dreams" is a song written by singer Stevie Nicks, for the group Fleetwood Mac's 1977 album, Rumours. It is the only U.S. No. 1 hit for the group where it sold over a million copies, and remains one of their best known songs.
The members of Fleetwood Mac were experiencing emotional upheavals while recording Rumours. Drummer Mick Fleetwood was going through a divorce. Bassist John McVie was separating from his wife, keyboardist Christine McVie. Guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and lead singer Stevie Nicks were ending their eight-year relationship. "We had to go through this elaborate exercise of denial," explained Buckingham to Blender magazine, "keeping our personal feelings in one corner of the room while trying to be professional in the other."
Nicks wrote the song at the Record Plant studio in Sausalito, California, in early 1976. "One day when I wasn't required in the main studio," remembers singer Stevie Nicks to Blender, "I took a Fender Rhodes piano and went into another studio that was said to belong to Sly, of Sly & the Family Stone. It was a black-and-red room, with a sunken pit in the middle where there was a piano, and a big black-velvet bed with Victorian drapes."
Dreams is the nineteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was released in 1986, and in 2005 was the third Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The reissue bonus track was released early 2004 in Hambühren as a limited promo CD Ion.

It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams
Don't wanna know when I'm awake
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams
Don't wanna know when I'm awake
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams
Don't wanna know when I'm awake
Once in my dream
I felt exactly like I was him
And the feeling was strangely familiar
One of those that you can never forget
Even if you're sad in the end
Sinful, daunted, and left alone in disgrace
I know that it wouldn't been my case if I hadn't braced myself for the moment of truth
I woke up and had to choose
Woke up and had to choose
Happily the choice was easy
And my common sense too busy
Trying to figure out where truth begins
I choose not to be afraid to be great
Not to be late to cross any gate
That opens only once in a lifetime
And there's usually no time to think twice
I choose to go three times when no one ever goes at any time
Four times or even more
I want to make sure if I can lift my body above the floor
I know it's not impossible
I choose not to hesitate to go straight
If a friend leads me astray
I'll tell him to go away
There's no other way, innit?
There's no other way
More or less, one big mess
The dream came to end
Got lost
But not without a trace upon my face
I'm aware of who I am
And who I'd rather be
That's it
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams
Don't wanna know when I'm awake
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams
Don't wanna know when I'm awake (wanna know when I'm awake)
As I lay me down to sleep
Cosy underneath the sheets
Glue my pillow to my cheek
Reality becomes a dream
And as crazy as this may seem
All my dreams are in fact reality
Reality
Let you know this ain't no nonsense, see
It happens quite subconsciously
When my mind goes travelling
Pass time unraveling
Taking my emotions back to where
I used to be a few years ago
Remembering a few peers and foes
And the person I was
It gets kind of scary
Yes, because
Reliving some past situations can get kind of painful
Those days full of no inspiration
Looking at the future with great hesitation
And then, suddenly, I awaken
In a cold sweat, thinking 'damn'
Sleep really is the cousin of death
Just like my man Nas said
But I
Don't let it get to my head like Brand Nub
Instead I get out of bed for some canned brew
Afterwards feeling brand new, put on some Badu
And go back to
The land of snooze
Put on some Badu and go back to
The land of snooze
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams (hate dreams)
Don't wanna know when I'm awake (don't wanna know when I'm awake)
It's crazy, dreams amaze me (dreams amaze me)
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams (hate dreams)
Don't wanna know when I'm awake (wanna know when I'm awake)
It's crazy (it's crazy), dreams amaze me (dreams amaze me)
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams (hate dreams)
Wanna know when I'm awake
It's crazy, dreams amaze me
Strange dreams, love dreams
Wanna know when I'm awake
It's crazy, dreams amaze me ([...] dreams [...] amaze me)
Strange dreams, love dreams, hate dreams (please don't go away [...])
(Don't wanna know when I'm awake)
It's crazy, dreams amaze me ([...] all amazing dreams)
