Aerosmith performed "Dream On".

Anything you thought you knew forever shock you?


I've heard that song so many times but assumed it was a one-hit wonder band (a thousand apologies to Lixy!!!). Never noticed Tyler's distinctive wail.

Now, of course, I hear the song every day and the announcer always says, "That was 'Dream On' by Aerosmith" whereas I had heard the song a zillion times but no band was announced by the DJ. It was never discussed. It was just a song I know.

To hear it was such a well-known band performing it floored me.

Anyone else just learn a well-known fact recently?

Some girls don't.

Steph, "Dream On" was almost Aerosmith's one hit...I remember it came out in '72 or '73 (couldn't get enough of it at the time), & then we heard very little from Steven & the boys until the Toys in the Attic album in late '74-early '75...just another example of someone who almost slipped thru the cracks except for some old-fashioned hard work & determination...

BTW, my #1 son (now in his early 20's) was also flabbergasted to learn that "Dream On" was an Aerosmith hit...if ya listen carefully, you can tell that Tyler's voice not quite as ragged in the beginning...before all the sex&drugs&rock&roll...

Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, & beat you with experience.

That's funny! Someone told me that song was from Toys in the Attic.

LOL @ your son not knowing it either.
