Hopefully it will gain some more airplay/sales and break into the top 100. Gravity didn't seem to perform too well on the chart. Personally I think Belief or Vultures would be successful singles, most accessible on the album in my opinion.

Dreaming is totally worth it.
But maybe it would be better to put that in Random Thread than to create new one. |

That is fantastic! I still would never have dreamed of that song as a single, but I guess I was wrong. I think Slow Dancing could have been even bigger, but
it's great to know that Dreaming made it to #1.

Great song - I am happy to hear that it is doing well in the charts.
I think I read somewhere that it's Mr. Mayer Sr.'s fave track on Continuum, or something like that....... It is getting heavy airtime out here where I am, so that's encouraging.
So hurry up and get here..
You'll be so good for me.. |

EDIT: Okay, reading the first post again. You are correct Laila. For some reason I thought I already heard it had been at #11, but I guess that was also referring to the Bubbling Under chart also.So yeah, I guess this really was an unnecessary new topic.

I hate that song. It's soft rock vagina-toting-dude bullshit. The rest of the album is great, though.

I agree that it can be done well, and it usually is by John Mayer. But "Dreaming..." is just too hokey for me.
" Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hands?" C'mon, that's grade A bullcrap. Marcia! |

Dreaming could sound outstandingly. Listen to Dreaming from 11-06-07 Star Lounge. This is the most amazing version I have ever heard. And lyrics... Well,
everyone interprets them differently. But you can't misinterpret the music

Wow, Elata, you're right! I forgot about that version. It's so stripped down, raw and lovely! Here's the link, if anyone wants to hear it again: http://johnmayer.yuku.com/topic/382/t/John-Mayer-in-the-Star-Lounge.html?page=4

Oh Snaap has to be putting us on.
That line, although it is the best, is the LEAST "vagina totin" part of the song. What lushy romantic girl wants to hear that?

My mind is actually blown that so many of you think that that's the best line it that song. I'm not trying to rile anybody up, I'm just stating my
opinion.Who the fuck would even contemplate falling asleep with roses in their hands? I adore John Mayer, absolutely, but I can't even express to you in
words how much I despise "Dreaming With A Broken Heart".

I'm sorry, but I don't believe you truly hate that song. I'm going to need proof.

Exactly. We all have to find our own meaning. For me, its not a song of romance. It actually reminds me of how I feel about my Grandma. She's not dead
or anything, but I don't see her as often as I'd like and I imagine this song would capture how I'd feel if she passed away. Morbid, huh?
