Only owners of "Honey To The B" know what I'm talkin' about. This is one of the best pop songs ever; it was a shame Billie had management problems so they didn't release "I Dream" as the fifth UK single off the album.
Why? This should've been picked as a single over "Girlfriend," "Honey To The Bee," and even "Because We Want To." It's hard to not like this song; perhaps it treads in ballad territory so it's deemed as more risky to sell.
This should've been the second single in the US instead of the just-okay "Honey To The Bee."
"I Dream" by Billie Piper blows away any Britney song to pieces. Guess that's why they call Britney, "The American Billie."
"Can you feel it, tell me can you feel? Every night I pray, I will find a way...."
Entertainment Weekly, which gave the album "Honey To The B" a "B," said "I Dream" took pop to a higher level.

I LOVEEEEEE this song... whenever I put on the album I always listen to this song lots of times. The arrangement is great, it's a perfect pop ballad.

I do have the album and it is one of my favorite pop albums. But I think the first 3 singles were great choices, I really liked them all. The song you are talking about is alright.

Hey, I don't have the album, but I sure do know what you're talking about! Billie was the first worldwide female "popstar". No one can challenge that. She paved the way for hundreds of young women or teens to be successful in the music industry at that time.
What has happened to her now? Can anyone tell me? I heard that she's married... It's too bad she's still not doing the music thing.

as far as i know, she's getting divorced with chris evans.
She released a 2nd album Walk of Life in 2000, in case you didn't know. I insist that it would've beaten britney down if she promoted it in the US. Though, it was rumoured that she was due to re-release her second album in the US but it never got to that point. She cancelled the recording of Tide is High in 2001 which was supposed to be her 4th and probably last off her 2nd album). After that, she left with chris and got married. Then went on a long honey moon.
Atomic Kitten wouldn't have released Tide is High the next year if billie didn't cancel. What a shame!
But now she's back as an actress! Yay.
