by Fabian Andre, Wilbur Schwandt and Gus Kahn
“Dream a Little Dream of Me” is a beautiful 1931 love song of timeless value; the music was written by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt while the lyrics were set by Gus Kahn. The first 1931 recordings by Ozzie Nelson, as well as by Wayne King and His Orchestra, with Ernie Birchill in vocals, were followed by more than 60 covers and versions of the song. Musicians are constantly fond of the piece, while the audience never ceases to enjoy it!
In the midst of this plethora of performances it’s a hard but delightful task to choose a favourite: starting with the monumental jazz version of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, to the 50’s timeless classics of Nat King Cole, Doris Day or Dean Martin; heading to the milestone 1968 recording of Mama Cass / The Mamas & The Papas, or the 1969 orchestral arrangement by Henry Mancini, to the 1995 version of The Beautiful South, we reach the 21st century with Michael Bublé or Anne Murray – and we are mentioning but a few.
To come to a conclusion, this is definitely a song highly appraised by the past generations and it seems that it will carry on for years to the next ones. Feel free to enjoy, whisper it as a lullaby, or improvise your own family version with your kids!

Dream a Little Dream of Me Lyrics
Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you”
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Say “Night-ie night” and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Dream a little dream of me
Dream a little dream of me
