Name: You Could Be Part Of My Dreams
Duration: P00H02M43S
Description: Written after seeing Duke Special perform live at Thekla, Bristol. The chorus melody came to me in a dream where I was Van Morrison singing it as a duet with Linda Ronstadt. The last song recorded for the album. Added as an after-thought, in fact. Received a lot of airplay in Cheshire where it was championed by DJ Steve Garnett. Not a hit.

lyrics

Write a song and make the changes clear
Make a vow and sign your name right here
Improbable most times
But possible sometimes
You could be part of my dreams

Write a poem and make the endings rhyme
Make a pledge and mix your soul with mine
Improbable most times
But possible sometimes
You could be part of my dreams

I could be happy with our love shining around
Let it shine
Write a thousand times
‘You are on my mind’

Write a book and give the plot a twist
Put my name right to the top of your list
Improbable most times
But possible sometimes
You could be part of my dreams

Write a joke and make the punch line good
Take a walk and carve our names in wood
Improbable most times
But possible sometimes
You could be part of my dreams

Blake recommends:

North Circular
by Bevis Frond

Being a singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/home recorder myself, and largely inspired by The Frond, I appreciate the amount of talent that has gone into creating this amazing work of art. Genius! Blake

Sometimes In The Morning
by Simon Wells

Gorgeous album full of charm and wit, wonderful imagery, observations on provincial British life, characters brought to life with the skill of a novelist and nods to the ghosts of a visionary Albion. Blake

CHOOCHTOWN
by HAMELL ON TRIAL

Choochtown is possibly the greatest, most creative album by one person I've ever heard. It's like a Raymond Chandler whodunnit which is in turns funny, romantic, violent, scary & uplifting. Gotta get! Blake
