Well I knew the day would come when I would finally set my eyes On a man who knows the meanin' of lovin' compromise The moment that I saw you and you looked at me that way The sparks had started flyin', couldn't drag myself away I knew you were the one for me, I knew that we'd be true In my wildest dreams, in my wildest dreams In my wildest dreams, honey, God created ... You ignite in me a fire and I'm simmerin' inside With confidence and self-esteem and love I cannot hide My wildest dreams are images of where I wanna be In your wildest dreams, darlin', do you dream of me? yeah yeah yeah Well I know just where I'm goin' and you're right here by my side We've got a lot of life to live, you're a man who knows his mind Strong and so articulate, and you look so good to me When you hold me in your arms my emotions set me free I have never felt so focused on the things I wanna do In my wildest dreams, in my wildest dreams In my wildest dreams, honey, God created you, © 2003 Bronwyn Edwards Cryer (ASCAP) *Return to top of page*
	THE STORY This was my first attempt at writing a viable R&B tune. Inspired by a relationship that bore my musical passion to fruition, I reworked it with my producer, Maurice Jones Jr., and made some changes to our original version recorded by my band "Once." The result is a much more driving groove with the lady they are calling "Seattle's newest diva," Josephine Howell, taking the lead vocal away. Michael Matthews plays a great tenor saxophone solo, and my horn section, Justin Cottrell (tenor sax), Tony Grasso (trumpet) and Cliff Colon (baritone sax) created the "organized chaos" that I wanted in the outro. These guys sound like a bunch of cats jamming in an alley and we couldn't bear to fade it, it was such a great sound. Josephine and her friend Phyllis Talley added four-part backups to complete the song. "Wildest" was a wild ride in the studio. I loved every minute of it! For Seattleites who'd like to hear more of Josephine Howell, you can see her perform at McGowans Restaurant on Sunday evenings between 7 and 11 pm. Joined by keyboardist Paul Richardson and Michael Matthews on sax, the band plays a variety of R&B, funk, and jazz/blues. McGowans Restaurant & Lounge is located at 317 Main Ave South, Renton WA 98055.
