Default You Can Sleep While I Dream
I think this song is special and really great song! It has really powerfull lyrics! Whats your opinion?


It's a small list for the optimist who believes that he can fly
In a long line full of pessimists to stop him every time he tries
Some people see things as they are and ask,"why?"
I dream things that never were, I take my shot and say, "why not?"

I really like it, it's got a great message and some really good lyrics. Think it would have done pretty well on Crush

Love this one.
The chorus is really catchy and the verses carry a really great message.

Hmm, It's OK. Not a big one for me really.

It's pretty cool. Not awesome, but decent. The real box set gem from the Crush era is Rich Man Living In A Poor Man's House, though.

I love that song.
It's my favourite box set song besides Open all night and Garageland.

Interesting song. Like many others on the boxset, there seems to be LOADS of potential on this one that ends up falling flat. Lyrics are cool, but the song just never picks up enough steam.

I love this song.
The intro's very funky, great lyrics.
One of my favs of the boxset.
