Yes! This song is better than anything from his last album. I loved Morning Phase, its beautiful - but not necessarily radio material...still, it's great to have the fun Beck back

I can't get into this in comparison to Blue Moon and the other songs off of Morning Phase. Beck is good, and this is better than most out there.

Am I the only one who's slightly disappointed by this? This is good, but it's not what I expected (thought this would sound like something from Morning Phase) That said, I hope all the best for him.

I'm supposing Morning Phase is to Sea Change what this one will be to Guero. And while Morning Phase was great it's also refreshing to have more upbeat Beck music. I was kinda hoping he'd go all-out with the samples again, though sadly that wouldn't be possible in this climate where even the smallest samples can get someone sued.

Yeah it kind of sucks that I'm way behind in some extent to Alternative (I only know Loser and Morning Phase prior to this, never listened to Mellow Gold, Sea Change, etc.)

Very similar albums in style, Sea Change is a bit more mournful while Morning Phase is more reflective. Beck spans many genres, it's pretty difficult to find someone who hates every single one of his projects.

Listening to Loser now and going to listen to my CD copy of Odelay. Feeling nostalgic.

I honestly haven't heard much Beck previously to this, either. The only ones I can name off the top of my head are Loser, Where It's At, Girl, and E-Pro.

Great songs mentioned, "Jackass" is one of my favorites, Hell Yes, Girl, and I forget the other song on that album...so smooth.

I've never really been a Beck fan. That "Morning Phase" album wasn't something I could sit and listen to. I guess "Loser" and "Devil's Haircut" are ok. "Girl" was probobly my fav from him, untill now. "Dreams" is Beck like I've never heard him before. I'll take Upbeat Beck over Mournful Beck any day.

Here's some stats. If Beck manages to pull a #1 with Dreams this year, he will be the only artist to have two gaps of 10 years or more between consecutive #1s (Loser and E-Pro = 11 years and about 2 months). Also, it will be the fifth time in the chart's history that there has been a 10+ year gap between an artist's consecutive #1s:
Jane's Addiction: 12 years, 10 months between Stop! and Just Because Bush: 12 years between The Chemicals Between Us and The Sound of Winter Beck: 11 years, 2 months between Loser and E-Pro Modest Mouse: 10 years, 9 months between Float On and Lampshades on Fire (If Dreams goes #1 this year, that will be two 10+ year gaps in 2015)
Maybe I'm being optimistic, but I really think Dreams has a chance to hit #1. It's a great song and Beck has been exposed to a larger audience with his Grammy win. If its chart performance so far is any indication, this should have no trouble going at least to Top 10.

Ha, that'd be a cool feat! Very nice. Also, I must've heard that second Jane's Addiction song a few times but it left zero impression on me.

i predict this will get to #14 in the next 2 days, but then it will be notch-by-notch as it slowly ascends to the top...but eventually i think this can make it to #1 (between this & Elle King anyway & i think this has a better chance than she does)
