sleeping with the beatles

august 6th, 2006

i always have beatle dreams before some big musical milestone in my life. they are usually about john lennon, and in them i am usually intimately linked with him. i remember before 8 arms came out i dreamt he sent me a beautifully wrapped package of baby clothes. then before my first solo album came out, i dreamt i slept with him, and he was REALLY insecure the whole time. i think that was my way of reassuring myself that it was ok to be nervous and insecure about the release of my album, because EVEN john lennon was insecure. so, on the eve of the release of bleeding heart graffiti, my new album, this odd, subconcious tradition was upheld; i dreamt about him last night. this one was way more abstract, and i can't quite remember what happened, just that he was flirting with me, and that i LOVED having his attention. sorry, i know it is really boring for people to talk about their dreams, other than with their therapist, but i just found it so odd when i woke up this morning. and what i really want to know is: why don't i EVER dream about GEORGE????

more soon...
