}}Dream Police is the fourth studio album by American rock band Cheap Trick. It was released in 1979, and was their third release in a row produced by Tom Werman. It is the band's most commercially successful studio album, going to No. 6 on the Billboard 200 chart[6] and being certified platinum within a few months of its release.[7]

Overview

Dream Police shows the band expanding into longer, more complex songs and incorporating orchestration on several tracks. Three videos were produced: "Dream Police", "Way of the World" and "Voices". The album had been completed by early-1979, but its release was pushed back several months due to the surprise success of Cheap Trick at Budokan.

The album's title track became a Top 30 hit for the band. "Voices" was also a hit for the band, reaching No. 32 on the Billboard chart. "Voices" has been used twice in the soundtrack of the American sitcom How I Met Your Mother.

Near the end of "Gonna Raise Hell" the orchestra is citing a snippet from "Heaven Tonight". That song was described by Allmusic critic Tom Maginnis as having an "extended, disco-inflected, slowburn groove".[8]

Variations

In 2010, Cheap Trick re-recorded the title track as "Green Police" for the controversial[9] Green Police advertisement which aired during Super Bowl XLIV for Audi.[10]

Track listing

All songs written by Rick Nielsen, except where noted.

  1. "Dream Police" – 3:49
  2. "Way of the World" (Robin Zander, Nielsen) – 3:39
  3. "The House Is Rockin' (With Domestic Problems)" (Tom Petersson, Nielsen) – 5:12
  4. "Gonna Raise Hell" – 9:20
  5. "I'll Be with You Tonight" (Nielsen, Zander, Bun E. Carlos, Petersson) – 3:52

  7. "Writing on the Wall" – 3:26
  8. "I Know What I Want" – 4:29
  9. "Need Your Love" (Nielsen, Petersson) – 7:39

Bonus tracks (2006 Reissue)

The bonus tracks of the 2006 reissue of Dream Police consisted mainly of rare live versions of songs from the album. "I Know What I Want" is noteworthy for being the b-side to their 1988 single "Don't Be Cruel" and the only non-live track is a demo of the title track without its trademark strings.

  1. "The House Is Rockin' (With Domestic Problems)" (live) – 6:16
  2. "Way of the World" (live) – 3:59
  3. "Dream Police" (No Strings Version) – 3:52
