Behind ‘Dreams’:
“The Sydney I grew up in is a very different Sydney to the one we live in today. Iconic buildings have been knocked down for skyrise apartments and famous music venues destroyed by political legislation. One day you are walking down the street in the sunshine, and the next you’re confined to the four walls of your own bedroom. Johnny Hunter started playing live music during the death of live music in Sydney - wallowing in self pity and declaring the current state of affairs to be insurmountable would result in this band not existing. The same goes for experiencing any modern day hardships - we can’t dwell upon them, we need to run with them in order to progress.” - Frontman, Nick Hutt

Lyrics:
There’s a place where the weather’s ever changing
The city’s steeple is a beacon to its home
The iron gates of heaven open up the doorway to the harbour
And in the paper today there is no ink on the page
Because the writing is on the wall
Up the hill backwards
Speaking in tongues
You are a runaway
With nowhere to run
I don’t ever want to wake up
And realise I’m still dreaming of you
Can you feel the changes?
Changes in the weather
Stuck somewhere in-between the past and the future
And in the paper today there is no ink on the page
Because the writing’s written on the wall
Up the hill backwards
Speaking in tongues
You are a runaway
With nowhere to run
I don’t ever want to wake up
And realise I’m still dreaming of you

First time reactor here, wtf did i just stumble upon.. this song is amazing, it's giving old times but modern at the same time.. great vocal, a cheeky guitar solo.. and just waves of sounds.. i'm a fan if this is what their music sounds like 👍👍👍

Johnny Hunter at UC in 2019 was probably my favourite gig I've been to in years

[@supahsonik]

There I was. Scrolling through TH-cam. Where I thought I came across a Cure song I never heard of… instead I get this gem.

Crossed between Icehouse and The Cure!
The chord progression is reminiscent of Icehouse's Crazy in some sections...
But I can see and hear the unique talent that is Johnny Hunter... Well done! Hooked first listen!
