About

Cover of a Blondie song which was the lead single off their 1979 album Eat to the Beat.

While the original is a hard rock banger with furious drums, this version has an almost trip hop vibe, propelled by a lovely vocal duet between Billy Corgan and D'arcy.

Dreaming Lyrics

I'd build a road in gold just to have some

Dreaming, dreaming is free
