who sang hey now the dream is over
Don't Dream It's Over "Don't Dream It's Over" is a song by the Australian rock band Crowded House, recorded for their 1986 self-titled debut studio album.[5] The song was written by band member Neil Finn, and released in October 1986[2] as the fourth single from the album.
I Dreamed a Dream The song is a lament, sung by the anguished Fantine, who has just been fired from her job at the factory and thrown onto the streets. She thinks back to happier days and wonders at all that has gone wrong in her life. The song is typically played in the key of E-flat major with the final chorus in F major, though the pitch is shifted up a bit for high-toned TVs,[2] and it has also become a jazz standard.
