Dream Along with Me was born in 1955,
when Perry asked some songwriters he knew to come up with a theme for his
TV show. 'I thought about what Perry Como meant to me,
and to his fans,'
Carl Sigman recalls, 'and I tried to capture him in a song.
When he told me he had selected 'Dream Along with Me' I was thrilled.' The
best part of this recording is that you finally get to hear the complete
song, not just the few bars that Perry sang before greeting his TV
audience. Among Sigman's other well-known songs are 'Ebb Tide', 'What
Now My Love', 'Civilization ( Bongo Bongo Bongo ), and 'Enjoy
Yourself ( It's Later Than You Think )'
