All I can think about when I hear this song is the loved... lost. 😓😿💔 Pets, people, friends, family, relationships, jobs, hopes, dreams. A truly epic song. 👍✅ Thank you Alex.
Caught Alex at The Croxton on Thursday night as part of the Black the Sun 20th Anniversary tour. Alex’s voice and songs are timeless, they forever symbolise my youth! The man is a national treasure!!
Epic tune, still play this and Lucky Star often at gigs. Saw Alex at `98 Livid festival and then met him at The Great Northern Hotel in Byron when the projector didn`t work on his 1st album tour, my bro and I sang Beatles songs with him afterwards on the balcony upstairs. Great, humble guy, great songwriter. I`d love him to tour this 1st album!!
I listen to this song since I’m 6 years old, I remember listening to it in the car with my parents, and until today, I’m 14 y/o I still listen to it. It gives me such a nostalgic feeling and I love this sensation, this is definitely one of my all time faves, I wish it was more recognized.
I remember colour grading this a long time ago at FSM.. 16mm never looked so good, Mark Pugh! And Chris Bentley, not sure what you are doing now, but one of the best music video directors of the past 20 years and a top bloke!
The size of the crush I had on Rose Byrne in the movie "Two Hands" was more than my little thrift shop shirt wearing heart could handle at that time. As to why he didnt do alot of large scale tours. Alot of his better songs are sung with quite a whispy falsetto that can sound a bit weak live. I loved him as a songwriter and at the end of the day, screw large scale gigs. Music is all about honesty and an intimate familiarity that leads to a connection between the artist and the listener. Large scale stadium tours are about as intimate as an airport runway. Have to say tho, Watching Angels mend was the last really great album hes made.
It seems like a whole other life, buying this album, and watching him play at Homebake before he was very well known. Not even sure why I thought about this song today. Glad I did though. Feeling nostalgic.
This album reminds me of 20 years ago when I got married & running around the week leading up to the wedding organising everything. This was on repeat constantly in my car & I never changed it.
Black the sun Oh no, look at what we done Go away, oh no, won't you please stay? And dream of me, I wish you Would dream of me And dream of me, I hope you Will dream of me Words we speak, pictures are the Only things I keep. Rinse my mind I'm sure it will join me in time And dream of me, I wish you Would dream of me And dream of me, I hope you Will dream of me Up on your feet, around the bend Searching, I hope it never ends Walking your lonely street again Where tide meets the shore Woah woaaaah On a silent road And dream of me, I wish you would Black the sun And dream of me, I wish you would Black the sun And dream of me, I wish you would Black the sun And dream of me, I wish you would Black the sun The sun
He really is a fantastic artist, and deserved way more attention than he got. Still remember seeing this on Rage years and years ago. Kind of typified a lot of the Aussie music around in 1998; great stuff.
Alex Lloyd is amazing live. I saw him play Thebarton Theatre years ago with just his acoustic guitar and he was phenomenal. His voice filled the stadium, A truly great musician :-)
I moved from Australia to live in the USA, listening to Alex Lloyd's music 🎶 helps me with my Aussie homesickness 😊
this was the soundtrack of my late 90s, year 12 at high school, cracking album.
2019)
One of the most under rated Aussie talents. Bloody brilliant.
Just thinking exactly the same thing my brother
Totally agree.
He got Number 1 in triple J's hottest 100 in 2001 - pretty sure there were a generation that appriciated him and voted so.
Under rated worldwide talents. He’s incredible and I wish I could get him to the US…
Alex Lloyd has to be one of the best songwriters/singers in Australia but doesn't get the credit he deserves.
This whole album is amazing. Some incredible work… Alex is brilliant.
Underrated musician, beautiful song!!???

Too Right man's a bloody legend

Sultry and smouldering actually. I keep it on my favourite playlist. Understated .Potent.

2021. Living in lockdown again in Melbourne. Still love your music Alex ❤️
I absolutely thrashed this Album 19 years ago the week leading up to my wedding! Still So Good :-)

Such a beautiful song. Such a beautiful guy.
Only one comment for an all-time awesome song from one of Australia's best song writers and singers??? Love Alex Lloyd :)

Agree wholeheartedly on every point. Rose Byrne in Two Hands was the benchmark unto which ever girl was compared for many years
Pure Aussie talent Alex made it before the internet was big .
Help make these artist's big again play a song a day 😎
Denmark 's Crown Prince and Crown Princess love this.
remember this track from him supporting neil finn in 1998 in Nottingham on the try whistling this tour great track
Seen him perform most of this album with just a guitar and a beat machine. Awesome singer
Blasting this song, 2am, driving my Ford Telstar throughout Melbourne at 20yrs old after dropping ecstasy. Hard days but the most memorable.

Oh no, look at what we done
Go away, oh no, won't you please stay?
And dream of me, I wish you
Would dream of me
And dream of me, I hope you
Will dream of me
Words we speak, pictures are the
Only things I keep. Rinse my mind
I'm sure it will join me in time
And dream of me, I wish you
Would dream of me
And dream of me, I hope you
Will dream of me
Up on your feet, around the bend
Searching, I hope it never ends
Walking your lonely street again
Where tide meets the shore
Woah woaaaah
On a silent road
And dream of me, I wish you would
Black the sun
And dream of me, I wish you would
Black the sun
And dream of me, I wish you would
Black the sun
And dream of me, I wish you would
Black the sun
The sun
This song should have been huge.
I went overseas for a year. This was first song I heard when came back.
He really is a fantastic artist, and deserved way more attention than he got. Still remember seeing this on Rage years and years ago. Kind of typified a lot of the Aussie music around in 1998; great stuff.
saw him perform this on tour supporting neil finns try whistling this. great tune
Just an awesome Aussie artist.
Love his older stuff - "Lucky Star" too!
and still do a decade later
Alex Lloyd is amazing live. I saw him play Thebarton Theatre years ago with just his acoustic guitar and he was phenomenal. His voice filled the stadium, A truly great musician :-)

You need to slow this back down like the original that I brought on tape in northampton in early 2000’s
Take me back

Brilliant as ever!
Hadn't seen this video clip for ages, and just noticed Rose Byrne (Damages, Troy, Knowing, etc) is in it.
