To be honest, I hadn't heard of Priscilla Ahn until just a week ago. This was actually the song that got me hooked. Apparently it's been used in a few TV shows, namely Grey's Anatomy. I don't watch Grey's Anatomy but for those who do, here is the singer behind the song.
There's a fine line between angelic and wimpy. Priscilla Ahn manages to resonate beautifully and powerfully at the same time. Though her instrumentation is nowhere near original, she excels with her vocal talent and songwriting skills. Dream evokes memories of innocent, childish happiness, and Ahn masterfully uses her voice to reflect the nostalgic attitude. Even the melody is longing and wishful. Perhaps the impressive thing about Priscilla is her ability to arouse emotion in her music. Something that is so lacking in today's music.
Equally impressive, if not more so, is the live version which can be found here.
