Dreams is a 2004 Tamil Malayalam romantic film directed by Kasthuri Raja and produced by Saraswathi Srikanth. The film featured Raja's son Dhanush in the lead role with Diya and Parul Yadav playing other pivotal roles. The film opened to negative reviews and became a failure at the box office.
The project was launched shortly after the success of Thulluvadho Ilamai in 2002, but as Dhanush's Kaadhal Kondein became a large success, Dreams was stalled temporarily as Dhanush's dates became blocked. The film ran into a legal tussle with the makers of his other film, Sullan, with the producers adamant that Dreams was released first although to no avail. The film's delay meant that Dhanush shot ten straight days for the project to complete it, while the delay also had resulted in failings in continuity. By the time of the release, the producer Srikanth and director Kastoori Raja were still engaged in a legal tussle.
"Dreams" is a song written by singer Stevie Nicks, for the group Fleetwood Mac's 1977 album, Rumours. It is the only U.S. No. 1 hit for the group where it sold over a million copies, and remains one of their best known songs.
The members of Fleetwood Mac were experiencing emotional upheavals while recording Rumours. Drummer Mick Fleetwood was going through a divorce. Bassist John McVie was separating from his wife, keyboardist Christine McVie. Guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and lead singer Stevie Nicks were ending their eight-year relationship. "We had to go through this elaborate exercise of denial," explained Buckingham to Blender magazine, "keeping our personal feelings in one corner of the room while trying to be professional in the other."
Nicks wrote the song at the Record Plant studio in Sausalito, California, in early 1976. "One day when I wasn't required in the main studio," remembers singer Stevie Nicks to Blender, "I took a Fender Rhodes piano and went into another studio that was said to belong to Sly, of Sly & the Family Stone. It was a black-and-red room, with a sunken pit in the middle where there was a piano, and a big black-velvet bed with Victorian drapes."
Dreams is the nineteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was released in 1986, and in 2005 was the third Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The reissue bonus track was released early 2004 in Hambühren as a limited promo CD Ion.
All tracks composed by Klaus Schulze.
Ideas is a long-running scholarly radio documentary show on CBC Radio One. Co-created by Phyllis Webb and William A. Young, the show premiered in 1965 under the title The Best Ideas You'll Hear Tonight. It is currently hosted by Paul Kennedy and is broadcast between 9:05 and 10:00 P.M. weekday evenings; one episode each week is repeated on Friday afternoons under the title Ideas in the Afternoon.
The show describes itself as a radio program on contemporary thought. The subject matter of the shows varies, but music, philosophy, science, religion, and especially history are common topics. The show has won many plaudits for its quality and depth.
The series is notable for soliciting programming proposals from people who are not professional broadcasters, and having the successful applicants write and host their own documentaries (aided in production by CBC staff producers). Many Ideas programs are multi-part, with two, three, four, or more fifty-five-minute programs devoted to a single topic. Transcripts and audio recordings of many programs are made available, and sold directly by the CBC.
Tell me, how it feels
to look in the old, broken mirror on a new dawn,
and staring at the distance, to see in the splinters:
this man is not you anymore.
Your face is deprived of the light,
in darkness, locked up a hundred times.
You’re slowly disappearing and swallowed by the endless
distance,
I’m reaching out my arms for your emerging hands,
to make you stay!
On the stage of life just an empty chair stands,
the curtain drops, the scene ends…
On the stage of life just an empty chair stands…
I’m calling you to myself to embalm your broken wings,
for you’re the only one, for whom beautiful dreams
waiting.
You’re slowly disappearing and swallowed by the endless
distance,
I’m reaching out my arms for your emerging hands,
to make you stay!
On the stage of life the pressure ends,
the curtain drops, the scene ends…
On the stage of life the pressure ends…
Look at me with your musing eyes from the far distance
raise your soul, this drama is played for you.
You’re slowly disappearing and swallowed by the endless
distance,
I’m reaching out my arms for your emerging hands,
to make you stay!
On the stage of life nobody has play,
the curtain drops, the scene ends…
On the stage of life nobody has play…
I’m looking for my lost face,
to see myself in the splinters once again…
