'Dream' Songs Quiz

Got to thinkin' lately about how many songs there are about 'Dreams' from retro days gone by.

So, like my previous Telephone Song Quiz, I've put together a collection of photographs
and added the song lyrics & lines from 10 different songs that feature the word 'Dream'.

Can you name the artists/bands who sang the following 10 songs 

featuring the word 'Dream' in the title or lyrics?

Got some 60's, 70's, 80's and even a 50's hit in the mix!

Answers at the end .

Telephone Booths & Song Quiz

The public telephone or pay phone - slowly fading away from existence.

Whilst looking through these photographs of pay phones, I thought about how many songs from the 70's and 80's reference the telephone in their lyrics.

So I decided to put the two together!

I have 10 photos of the humble telephone (mostly pay phones) & added song lyric lines.

Each photo has a telephone line reference from a different song.

Can you name the song title and artist just by a line or two?

Some are desperately easy and obvious, and others - maybe not so much.

See how many you can get right! (no Googling!)
