Dreamer (Livin' Joy song)

"Dreamer" is a song by Italian house group Livin' Joy, written and recorded by Janice Robinson and produced by brothers Paolo and Gianni Visnadi. Originally released in August 1994, it was re-released in 1995 by MCA Records and topped the UK Singles Chart at the number one spot that May, ending 1995 as the UK's 40th-biggest-selling single of 1995. In the United States, it went to number-one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. It was a sleeper hit on pop radio, but finally managed to peak at number 72 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 75 on the Cash Box Top 100. Upon its release, "Dreamer" was acclaimed by music critics, many of whom praised Robinson's vocals on the song. Two different music videos were produced for the song; in 1994 and 1995.

When the group was unable to reach a deal with Robinson for a follow-up single she was replaced by American singer Tameko Star. Star recorded a version of "Dreamer" for the Livin' Joy album Don't Stop Movin' (1996), and the original recording by Robinson was included as a hidden track. In 2005, Robinson released her own version of "Dreamer" as a solo artist, reaching number five in the US Dance chart. In 2018, Robinson auditioned for the fifteenth series of The X Factor, singing "Dreamer" as her performance song 24 years after its original release in 1994. MTV Dance ranked "Dreamer" number 15 in their list of "The 100 Biggest 90's Dance Anthems of All Time" in November 2011.
