}} "#9 Dream" is a song written by John Lennon and first issued on his 1974 album ''Walls and Bridges''. It was released as the second single from that album months later, on Apple Records catalogue Apple 1878 in the United States and Apple R6003 in the United Kingdom. It peaked at number 9 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and number 23 on the British singles chart. A video for the song was made in 2003. ==Background== "#9 Dream" came to Lennon in a dream. Lennon has said that the song was just "churned out" with "no inspiration."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.beatlesbible.com/people/john-lennon/songs/9-dream/ )〕 According to May Pang's website, two working titles for the song were "So Long Ago" and "Walls & Bridges". Pang also states that the phrase repeated in the chorus, "Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé", came to Lennon in a dream and has no specific meaning. Pang added that Al Coury of Capitol Records initially protested against the use of the word "pussy" in the chorus, but after Lori Burton, the wife of studio engineer Roy Cicala, suggested that it should be sung as "poussé," as if in a foreign language, the lyrics were kept.〔 The song was notable as a favourite of Lennon's, despite his later claim that the song was a "throwaway."〔 Pang said on the matter, "This was one of John's favourite songs, because it literally came to him in a dream. He woke up and wrote down those words along with the melody. He had no idea what it meant, but he thought it sounded beautiful."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Number 9 Dream」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
