Beautiful moody song, excellent arrangement and vocals, the Beatles and John Lennon have to be mentioned here  Could you put the BIAB information, I could use some of the instruments on my Lennonish song Janne Better late than never: The RTs are: Bass--1827 Gtr strum--676 Drums--Rock Brit vibe 8ths Synth pad--1543 Gtr elec rhythm--680 Gtr high strung Ac--1765 Gtr solo--1168 (I LOVE BRENT) Gtr dreamy--2448 (STILL LOVE BRENT!) I used CLA guitars (Waves on the solo gtr), and Izotope on drums and most other tracks plus mastering. Hope this helps. Take care. Greg

This is by far one of my favorite things from you.
It is also one of my favorite things on the forum.
This is a masterpiece. I see other have mentioned the Beatles. I would narrow it down even further to John Lennon. Not just sounding like John Lennon. I mean channeling John Lennon. Spooky.
Drums are fantastic. Is that you playing the guitar?
Are you going to keep us guessing on the real tracks and production. I wanna know how you did this.
Awesome Greg. Really appreciate such high praise David! You have been a creative storm of wonderful music lately! Take care. Greg

Mr. Johnson:
The spiritual sincerity of your lyrics for "Dream Love" combined with the dreamy, quietly mesmerizing mood of your music sent the song into my heart like a hospital ship searching for lost souls.
Your singing voice fully embraces and projects the guiding, hopeful light shining from your lyrics. "Dream Love" could be a "go-to" song for anyone attempting to "deny the darker voice".
"Dream Love" is memorable, inspiring, and touched with beauty of sound and substance, Mr. Johnson.
LOREN
P.S. Now, I understand why you always close your "User's Forum" posts with the words, "take care"! Thanks so much for those very kind words Loren. They mean a lot to me! Take care. Greg

Excellent guitar solo in the final.

Hello, Greg
Really good melody with the characteristic chord progression!
Also very nice and pleasant vocal.
As Peter said, you really have channeled the Beatles here.
And as Rob said, what a great vocal range you show us here.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks so much Shigeki! Very much appreciate your kind words (and your great music!) Take care. Greg

Very few of us here can post a performance as well crafted as this is. It does have a Beatlesque feel that pulls in the listener and doesn't let go. Just beautiful! Among your very best, Tom

Well, since folks are mentioning who it reminds them of..... For us it’s like John singing a Paul write with a Pet Sounds mystique...or something like that Your tendency toward positivity is always welcome and this certainly does not disappoint with the perfect vocal and arrangement to carry the message. Well done! J&B J&B, your support and kind words are always deeply appreciated!! Who wouldn't be flattered by those comparisons? Take care. Greg

Nice one.
I agree... this is the missing Beatles track from their Sgt Pepper album.
Nice write too.
Everything about this is very good. Thanks Herb! In my book, that's about the greatest compliment a person can get. Really loved your Xmas guitar instrumental! Take care. Greg

WOW Greg!! What a great tune!! As others have mentioned, it's very Beatlesque! Puts me very much in mind of Lennon's "Dear Prudence" , but truly stands on it's own! You have been producing some very good stuff lately and I am much impressed with your skills! Keep on rockin' Take care, Torrey Thanks Torrey! You're right, it does have kind of the Dear Prudence vibe. Love what you've been posting! Take care. Greg

hello Greg Johnson
this is so beatle worthy... nice vocals... so beautiful! That was my immediate vibe too, 70's Harrison or Lennon are just swimming all over this one - Not a shabby company to be in 
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!
