Free mp3s for all! Cass McCombs ‘Dreams Come True Girl’

For a rather limited time (2 weeks to be exact) we have partnered with the good folk at triple j to give YOU free music! Dreams Come True Girl is the new single from my favourite crooner of cool, Cass McCombs. Haven’t heard it? Shame on you! Get thee educated by dropping by triple j to get yourself a copy for nix! You can even get a preview here by watching the clip, which is a (kinda odd) combination of vintage (see silverscreen legend Karen Black swanning around) and contemporary (indoor skate park!  Woo!).

You might think you don’t know Cass McCombs but maybe you remember this song from the IKEA ad?

That’s the super-sweet Pregant Pause from his debut LP Dropping The Writ which I can highly recommend. Standout tracks include That’s That and my favourite to sing in the morning Crick In My Neck. As Molly would say, do yourself a favour!

Cass McCombs – Dreams Come True Girl video and lyrics by popular demand

I never would have thought to pair wistful, plucky double bass lines with underage skaters, nor lyrics about a dream girl with the homicidal mamma from House of 1000 Corpses – but Cass McCombs has found a way.

Academy Award and Grammy nominated Karen Black features on this utterly charming track Dreams Come True Girl from McCombs’ upcoming album Catacombs. Check it out on HD. It’s… yummy – in a crazy voluptuous cat-lady hanging out in a graffitied bathroom kinda way.

Domino delivers gold yet again.

We’ve had lots of requests for lyrics so now for your karaoke-ing pleasure…

You’re not my dream girl.
You’re not my reality girl.
You’re my dreams come true girl.

All the troubles in my past
That’s just what they are.
And all the delusions that took host and passed
Have only made my immunity strong.

I’ve been blessed.
Your eyes are two moons.
I hope this voyage will not be ending very soon.
Just crying in orbit with these mirrors of perfection.
To die in the arms of your affection.

What land is this?
May I never wake.

(No no no no no no no your dream.)
(Take me dancing tonight.)
(Take me out, it’s Saturday!)
