German singer/rapper Cro has released "Dream," an English version of his song "Traum," which topped the charts in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland last year.

The English version is just plain bad! Go for the original German issue, instead.

NO WAY!! So last year when this was on the charts, I thought by myself: 'Why wouldn't he make an English version of it. It could be a worldwide smash!', and now he did it. It's not bad, but I totally prefer the German version over this. And somehow I can't really understand Germans talking English.

Under Cool New Music via AllAccess.
I've just listened to this (not on the YouTube audio embed in the OP because it's blocked in my country ) on AllAccess and this is really good. Hope this could do something to be honest.

One of my friends introduced me to "Traum" a few months ago, and I loved it instantly! I guess I'm used to listening to the original German version so the English sounds a bit weird to me, but I'm glad this is crossing over to the US and hope it can become a hit!

I haven't heard "Traum" brb... I do really like this though.
I like it better in English lol. Musically they don't really sound different to me, and I've always had a hard time enjoying songs that are in a language I can't understand.

This is so much worse that the German version which sounds extremely catchy. "Traum" is still one of my favorite non-English songs ever.

This isn't bad! It kind of reminds me of a Flo Rida/Pitbull track, but in the best way.
