Thread Name: Writing songs in your sleep
Subject: RE: Writing songs in your sleep
Just read the post by Blew My Mind after having nearly the same experience. Almost exactly, but mine was not a power ballad, however did share the same song structure as one (multiple parts, some repetitive). There was a brief pause, and a second song started, like listening to a CD, and then I "woke up" although I was really awake the whole time. The music seemed to last about 60 to 90 seconds, and always happens inbetween wakefulness and sleep.
The music was the most crystal clear, loud, layered, amazing music I have ever heard. It did have vocals but I do not remember them nor the lyrics. For sure this is a song I have never heard as I listen to lots of music, and would love this band if they actually existed! This has happened the same way about 4 or 5 times in my life, and usually while napping in my bed.
I wish I knew what it means. Also, interesting the few posts I have read mention feeling a sense of extasy, and waking up crying, which is exactly what happened to me. If I could could just remember and reproduce the songs I would be famous! : )
