    Yeah, I've always liked Little Dreamer a lot. Was one of my favourites when I first got the album, long ago.

      And I agree, it definitely shows off Dave's singing. His overall delivery is great, and his phrasing, timing, tone, and mood are top notch. He really shines on it (it's a good one to shove in the face of "he can't sing at all"-type goofs).

        I used to love grooving out on the main chorus riff and verse guitar part when I was a beginning guitarist.

                    There is something in that song that we all can find to relate too.

                      Songs like "Little Dreamer" showed us as kids who listened to them a bit of the heavier side to adult life then parents cared to caution us of: in like contrast, could Hagar write a tune like this?

                      Fact is he didn't. Nor does he even write from reality.. I even doubt he's been Up For Breakfast in the last 2 decades!

                      Lyricist of this song was a genious and kudos for Dave's inflections on it.. I can't even recall who wrote it. Grate choice.

                        I never paid attention to that, very true. While classic vh wrote about things that really happend or they felt, van hagar just made the bullshit up, very good point

                            What do you mean? Dave and VH wrote it.
