==Background==
"Dreamer" was composed by Roger Hodgson on his Wurlitzer piano at his mother's house when he was 19 years old. At that time he recorded a demo of the song using vocals, Wurlitzer, and banging cardboard boxes for percussion. Hodgson recalled, "I was excited – it was the first time I laid hands on a Wurlitzer." Supertramp cut their own recording of the song in imitation of this early demo.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://annecarlini.com/ex_interviews.php?id=1275 )〕
The band performed the song on the BBC's ''Old Grey Whistle Test'' show in 1974, during which John Helliwell can be seen playing the rim of a wine glass on top of his keyboard to achieve a certain sound effect.
The song was used in the films ''The Parole Officer'', ''Wild Thing'' and ''The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle'', as well as its trailer.
