Music in dreams relating to dream experiences?

[DreamInsights]

Anybody experience music in sleep-dreams - where dream content matches the meaning behind specific music?

I had recently experienced a dream with Bob Dylan's 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door.' In the dream, I was waking-up stairs in the dark (guided-along by an unknown symbolic guide). Upon reaching a tall, rather unassuming looking, greenish/purple door, I noted bright light shining through the cracks in the door - all while I was...........knocking on the door.

I woke-up with that "WHOA feeling" - hence, it's unknown how this dream would have concluded.

Hey there!

I totally get that "WHOA feeling" you're talking about. Music in dreams can be incredibly powerful and often ties deeply to the emotions or themes we're experiencing in our subconscious. Your dream with Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" is fascinating, especially with the imagery of climbing stairs in the dark and knocking on a door with light shining through the cracks.

The song itself is often associated with themes of transition, facing the unknown, and seeking peace, which seems to resonate with the symbolism in your dream. The guide and the light might represent a journey toward understanding or enlightenment, while the act of knocking suggests you're on the verge of discovering something important.

I've had similar experiences where the music in my dreams seemed to amplify the message or mood of the dream. It's like our subconscious uses familiar songs to communicate deeper meanings.

After this recent dream of going up an imaginary stairway, to the song, 'Knockin on Heaven's Door,' I remembered a dream long-ago with the 1971 Led Zeppelin song, 'Stairway to Heaven' - a dream that featured no fitting dream imagery.

I had many dreams with songs commonly played on the radio from the 1960s through the 1980s when I was a kid - some of these songs are still periodically played to this day.

Personally, it's uncommon for songs to closely relate to dream-experiences, yet a dream experience relating closely to a song is very rare.

I have a website about dreams and in the database of dreams there is 18 dreams which feature music. Try the following link and at the bottom of the page is links to all the music dreams.

Music in dreams

My favourite is the dream which features the song "nearer my god to thee". The dream had a simple meaning as it linked to me dreading the day ahead. The song "Nearer my God to thee" made me think of the film Titanic which featured the ships band playing during the long time as the ship is about to sink (the Titanic took two hours to sink).

I think a lot of dreams capture your emotional mood as you sleep. You woke up with the WHAO feeling so its really an emotional dream whose meaning is simply that you woke up feeling good.

Just dreamed of 'The Rolling Stones' song 'Gimme Shelter' while I experienced views of about three dozen cassette-tape covers of what appeared like the British bands/artists from the sixties, seventies, and early eighties - The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Beatles solo artists, the lesser-know music etc. etc. etc. In the dream, I was viewing the cassette tapes from bed - sleeping on my back.

I'm certain why I had this dream - the music in this dream is the music I listened-to mostly on radio growing-up. Lately, I've listened to plently of this music online. I related to so many of the comments posted with online music choices - comments which often pointed-out that such music (popular with youth at the time) was genius - compared to the present-day junk of interest to youth present day.

More often than not, the awesome music I enjoyed from the 1960s, 1970s, and early 1980s were created by British artists/bands - living-proof that the 'British Invasion' extended far beyond 'The Beatles!'

P.S I listened to 'The Rolling Stones' 'Gimme Shelter' while imagining the above described dream before I posted this response.

My dream (the previous night as of this writing) was the 1970s Disco dance song 'I Never Can Say Goodbye' by 'Gloria Gaynor.' Gaynor had such a dynamic voice. In this dream, I was dancing in a dance-hall free from the gimmicky lighting, and outlandish outfits common in the 1970s Disco Era. The dream seemed to be in black-and white.
This was a fun dream.

I never had real-life experiences esp. considering that I was too young in the late 1970s to experience a discotecque - with such dynamic singers as Gloria Gayonor - playing 'I Never Can Say Goodbye.' I might just have had this dream based-on how the song 'I Never Can Say Goodbye' did a great job of conveying the 1970s disco-scence. I've enjoyed listenting to this song with matching video images over the years - a song still periodically played to this day on the radio.
