01/08/14 - NNHS Newsletter - Dream Lover
“I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. |
Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
This Newsletter theme just popped into my mind, and surprisingly it appears we have never used it.
BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Fpd_ggGiDE - Dream Lover - Bobby Darin on the Ed Sullivan Show, 1959
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_Lover:
"Dream Lover" is a song written and recorded by
Bobby Darin on March 5, 1959. It was produced by
Ahmet Ertegun and
Jerry Wexler and engineered by
Tom
Dowd. It is considered a soulful rock song. The song became a
multi-million seller, reaching #2 in US charts and was #1 in UK for
three weeks during July 1959.[1]
It was released as a single on
Atco Records in 1959. In addition to Darin's vocal, the song
features
Neil Sedaka on piano[2].
A picture sleeve was also issued for this record. The song is featured in the movie "Hot Shots!" starring Charlie Sheen. It is played during a scene in which Sheen's character performs several stunts on a motorcycle, trying to impress a girl. Darin's recording is also played, in full, during the end credits. The song was also used in Michael Apted's movie "Stardust" (1974) and Barry Levinson's debut film "Diner" (1982). |
