Some of the poppiest pop that ever popped. But I was young when this came out so it's okay if I maybe listened to it a little bit.

I've zeroed in on the dreams part of this thread for some reason.

Funny story, I always thought this song was Hall & Oates. Well Dan Hartman wrote it for them, but they had just released a record so weren't able to record it at the time. So Dan went ahead and did it himself. It just sounds like Hall & Oates.

 

[nwhoopfan]

But hey Hall & Oates do have a song about dreams.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Okay here's a song about night time.

I guess the 80s hair metal bands had plenty of songs about night time. Probably because they slept most of the day. This is not an official video, it's cobbled together bits and pieces from other videos from them.
