}} "These Dreams of You" is a song written by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison and featured on his 1970 album ''Moondance''. This song was also included on Morrison's 1974 live album, ''It's Too Late to Stop Now''. "The inspiration of "These Dreams of You", it seems, was a dream about an assassination attempt on Ray Charles, who then 'got up to do his best'. The words are introspective and obscure, but the musical structure and assured playing give the piece its necessary coherence."〔Collis, Inarticulate Speech of the Heart. p120〕 Van Morrison describes it as:〔Hinton. Celtic Crossroads. p.109〕 The result of a dream I had about Ray Charles being shot down. That started off the whole song. The line 'you paid your dues in Canada', I don't really know where that comes from, I just have a romantic image of going to Canada and that's about it. The song is basically about dreams. Brian Hinton goes on to say: "Nightmares more like, with Van's lover telling lies, walking out, ignoring his cries, throwing him out, and slapping him on the face; odd behavior for an angel. Van's voice sounds almost strangled on the final chorus."〔Hinton, Celtic Crossroads. p.110〕 ==Appearance on other albums== *A live version was included in the 1974 double live album ''It's Too Late to Stop Now''. 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「These Dreams of You」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
