I'm still kind of shocked at the dream I had this morning. I was supposed to get up at 5 AM and get to work so I could get out early and miss a good deal of the holiday rush traffic. My four alarms went off and my light turned on, but in my half-awake state, I kept hitting the snooze and eventually just turned the alarms off. I drifted back to sleep at around 5:45 and that's when the dream started. I was apparently driving home, to a different home, when some snow made the roads very very unpredictable. I was in a completely unfamiliar location on the roads, and hit a big snow section that was all in the middle and ended up bumping my car in the air like a ramp, and then through a snow-bank into the neighborhood, where it had just turned into night. I parked and in this haze started walking around to figure out where the hell I was. It wasn't that cold but the snow was everywhere, and the neighborhood felt very friendly. The sidewalks were well-lit and the trees still had the late-fall colors on the leaves. As I passed one particular house, someone yelled my name. Three people came out (I can remember their faces to extreme detail) and one asked if I remembered them. Another said "long time no see". Everyone randomly started breaking out into song, which sounded somewhat similar to the Dreams Dreams version I'm working on with lots of people, but a much much different beat. More random people walking around started joining in, and then...well, I woke up. Last I remember, everyone was dancing a little and getting to the second chorus. I check my clock and it was 6:40, and I immediately got up, still half-freaking out at such a clear dream.

Now get this: I checked the OCR boards this morning the moment I got into work, which was almost 9, and one of the remixers on Lucid Dreaming posted about having a very early WIP of his version of Dreams Dreams ready. I won't give anything away about what he's planning, but suffice it to say he also is including some vocals. I haven't checked the WIP yet, but if it sounds anything like what I heard in my dream in terms of familiarity of that new beat, I may just freak myself into a coma.

I guess the scariest thing is that I never have many vivid dreams if dreams at all, let alone being so influenced by things I'm actually doing in real life. It's just...yeah, my brain's mush right now.

Nah, the three main people were all females, around the ages of 20-25. One was white, one was hispanic, and the other was black but light-skin-toned. The other people were just random people, it was very bizarre.

And yes, TRiPPY, you can admit me to the nuthouse with you all. SO STRANGE.

I wonder who they were I've heard that studies show that your brain cannot create faces while dreaming so everybody you see in a dream, no matter how random they seem, you have seen them somewhere (either irl or a picture or something) So interesting, eh?

You were admitted the second you joined the forums.

That's interesting. Do you know why you can't create faces in dreams?

I'm pretty sure those "you cannot create faces in dreams" is along the lines of "you only dream in black and white". A popular point of trivia which is not necessarily true. At least I'm not believing it until I at least read it from an academic source.

Well, there have been several things in my dreams that I've never personally experienced before. Yeah, perhaps I've experienced little pieces of the whole dream moment individually (ability to dream of falling from very high up over a city=real life experiences of adrenaline rush from thrill rides+being up high in Eiffel Tower once), but it's still a new thing. Faces are probably the same way. Features that you've never seen before won't show up in dream people, but different features can be pieced together to make something you've never seen before.
