I still can't believe that Dan Hartman and I went to the same high school, John Harris HS, Harrisburg, PA. He also went to the same church that I got married in 1968. Dan and his older brother played in a local group called "The Legends." Eventually, Dan left The Legends band and joined the Edgar Winter Group musical band. Dan was such a talented musical genius, and sadly he departed us far to early in his life. Rest in peace.
That’s so cool! When I think back to the 80’s this is one of the first songs that comes to mind that defines the decade. But maybe I’m biased…I was a kid when it was released & was crazy about it immediately. It was in heavy rotation @ my 2 “happy places” - the local skating rink & pool. As much as I loved every element of the song - lyrics, beat, Dan’s vocals - it holds memories of the happiest times of my life. I think most people feel the same way about that decade & hearing this song probably has the same effect as it does on me…immediately puts a smile on my face & in my heart. 🌞💛. I didn’t realize or had forgotten he wrote another song the DJ’s played heavily @ the skating rink & we kids would go wild, especially because the video screen was lowered when it was played so the music video would show simultaneously….James Brown’s “Living In America” from the Rocky movie. 🇺🇸 I happened to be reading a write up about “I Can Dream..” a year or two ago when I learned Dan had passed away. It honestly knocked the wind out of me, I had no idea. Another extremely gifted artist gone way too soon. So very, very sad.
Fun fact: I was first introduced to this song because of a skit meant to make fun of a tv show on Saturday Night Live. After looking it up and actually listening to the whole thing, needless to say, I quickly became obsessed with it because it's just that freaking amazing.
Gosh, Dan... I'd surely know how to hold you just right... but I can only dream about you. Your singing-songwriting talent, charisma and beauty will always be to fall in love with. 💖🎧
Anis 80 Tempos Bons que não voltam mais! Tenho muitas saudades! Festinhas Americanas que todos levavam suas bebidas e chamavam as amigas para dançar coladinho.
@@jaypike5424 WRONG! Dan Hartman wrote this song for his great buddies HALLS AND OATES, But they declined to record it cause they just got done recording an album, so he decided to keep it and record it.
I'm still looking for a legit live performance. He pulls the mic away at the 130 mark and proves its prerecorded. Theres another performance where he has 2 members with him, one guy is just holding the sax, and Dan does the same thing. Where is an actual live performance of this song?
they didn't use Dan Hartman himself/his group in Streets Of Fire (movie)....where I first heard this song/his voice. Sounds great. Just didnt have THE LOOK. Looked like a "Rick Astley". :)
Hey bugs, this song is for you. The love of my life. One day at a time. You make me think about our great times together. Now & always I will love you forever. no matter what happens. Hope is a good thing. 1-4-3. jwd.
This was taped Sept, 1984. I am playing congas in the video....
I never knew I was getting any of this......thks Linda it is great, really enjoyed hearing the the song again.
lindances how cool! You must have had a blast!
Yes! It was a dream come true! :-)
One of my favorite songs! What a great band and Dan's voice...Wow!
Linda Kay Curtis! How come you never kept on with music? You were great.

do you believe what is said in wiki that he was 'closet gay' i don't believe it
Did you all know he had, A.I.D.S. before he died and or when he got H.I.V.? Did you all know that he was gay before he died?
This song was a bigger success than streets of fire itself
it is crazy.. and yet it is a cult classic..
@@omarrc9628 rediscovering my favorite song from the movie streets of fire
Yes,it was!In fact,i have NOW to discover all the single tracks,apart from the title,which i already knew at the time,saw the trailer.
One of the best songs of all times. Thank you, Dan Hartman🙏🥰
Some songs are timeless, this is one of them. Super talent, gone too soon.
U-bet! RIP --Dan the Man!
One of the greatest hits of all time!
What a voice, especially when he hit that high note at the end of the song , I sure miss this man

Just love this clip so much and seeing Dan perform. One of the best eighties songs.
It still gives me a funny feeling when I hear this song. Dan had an awesome voice ....so talented 👏❤❤❤
Simplesmente um espetáculo, ouvir uma música dessa é tudo de bom
I'm not american, and i was 7 or 8 years old when this song played, but i love it, 80's music is the best💚🎧
RIP Dan, you bring back so many great memories of that era ❤️ and you were such a hunk 😍
what a great cool composition from the early 80's that is actually 1 of my favorites from the 1980's and it is a live performance 🙂🙂❤️

You never heard it on the radio? You must be under 30.

I have been looking for old episodes of This Weeks Music. Do you have the entire episode to post?
Hurricane killed it on this show
I'm hiv poz I'm scared still living strong miss u Dan love u brother 😰😥😪😂
Frerick Varano I hope you'll be ok. These days they have so many new medications for hiv. Stay strong and positive. I wish you the best.
Mike Black that's such a shame. If Dan Would of admitted it he could of taken meds earlier & he could still be here.
God bless u brotha
Stay strong and reach for the stars.
Frederick, I hope that you’re okay.
Don’t keep us in suspense!

sempre belle!!!!
Dan harkman?
Found out that Dan originally wrote this for Hall and Oates, but while they loved it, had to pass on it because they had completed their album.
Bravo meilleures groupes Je.aime.clipe
No autotune 🙏
Dan Hartman was a Whiteboy with Soul same with Huey Lewis of Huey Lewis & the News
i Can Dream about U
Good times!!!
this is the only song I love from dan Hartman
whiteboy was Jammin on this one.. may he RIP ETERNALLY ❤️
Sensacional
I dig it😂
❤🔥💯
why is his name, AND the song misspelled??.....
steve stevens That's what I thought
Probably a tv show in Romania or something :)
I love T.M Stevens!❤
Who's that Lefty Blackman Guitarist of Dan Hartman?
Ronny Drayton
@@greatgooglymoogly he play like jimi hendrix
Bowers ambulance working 24hr shifts 4 times a week in 1984.
Me encanta
The eight wonder of the world. A left handed lead guitarist and a chick who can blow all the spit out of a Saxaphone.
What show was this?
This a live video or lip syncing? He sings the live version is much better
Great but video quality would be vastly improved by deinterlacing the source.
Bravo meilleures Je.aime.clipe
I like the Winston Ford version better...but good luck finding it. It has been pretty much eliminated on line for some reason???
This version is way better more soulful & should of been used for the movie streets of fire
Cuando era galan

Tm stevens on bass
Like when he ran and started singing again.
Love it
free ride blew this song out of the water imo
Dan Harkman? I can only dream?
* Hartman*
Either overdubbed or lip synced... 😒
Dan did not appear to be gay, unlike Freddy Mercury or jobriath, his performance and manly appearance
Act and sing well!
Nao gostei dessa versão com sax!
Did anyone notice the written inaccuracies or errors in the beginning? Lol
Love that song!
