[DoriKamu Best] DREAMS COME TRUE’s Masterpieces & Popular Songs

DREAMS COME TRUE is a legendary duo that delivered numerous hit songs from the 1990s through the 2010s and earned nationwide popularity.

Their festive spirit is also a trademark, with massive DREAMS COME TRUE WONDERLAND concerts held once every four years and interactive events like DREAMS COME TRUE DISCO.

From love songs often heard at weddings and uplifting anthems that encouraged people across Japan to playful, fun tracks beloved by younger generations—like “Osaka LOVER”—their range is part of the appeal.

In this article, we’ll spotlight some of DREAMS COME TRUE’s greatest songs!

[DREAMS COME TRUE Best] Classic and Popular Songs by DREAMS COME TRUE (41–50)

24/7DREAMS COME TRUE

DREAMS COME TRUE – “24/7 — TWENTY FOUR SEVEN”
24/7DREAMS COME TRUE

A number with a punchy, attention-grabbing melody right from the start—what you could call a DCT-style hard funk track.

The lyrics feature lots of rhymes, and compared to DREAMS COME TRUE’s many songs that are more “uplifting” or “heartfelt love” oriented, this one stands out as a stylish, cool-type number.

By the way, “24/7” means “24 hours, 7 days a week,” not some ultra-eccentric rhythm of 24 beats in 7 minutes.

This song is included on the 8th album “LOVE UNLIMITED∞” and served as the theme song for a Fuji Television-produced film of the same name.

A music video was made at the time, but it was never commercially released.

With lyrics that liken the singer’s own love to Orihime and Hikoboshi on the night of Tanabata, it’s a recommended track for anyone in a heart-wrenching long-distance relationship.

It’s an arrangement of ETERNITY—the theme song for the film SWAN PRINCESS—and a B-side to the 17th single “Thank You.” However, the lyrics are different.

The words, which beautifully capture the thrill of the moment when unrequited feelings turn into love, are very well written, and the song is quite popular among fans, yet for some reason it’s rarely performed live, making it a rare track.

This was DREAMS COME TRUE’s first maxi single, and neither of the two songs included on this CD appears on any of their original albums—they’re only available on best-of compilations.

It’s a famous track that served as the Japanese theme song for the film “Sleepless in Seattle,” and a different version was also used in a Honda Odyssey commercial.

It’s a gentle ballad you’ll want to listen to at least once during the winter.

The A-side of the single that includes the already-released “Ureshii! Tanoshii! Daisuki!” Times have changed quite a bit, but still, there are people who end up staying out all night and find themselves making up excuses to their parents, aren’t there? The slightly bouncy rhythm creates an upbeat, excited mood.

Their 50th single, released in 2013, served as the theme song for the drama “Emergency Room 24 Hours.” With a mix that brings the toms and the powerful mid-range of the piano to the forefront, it’s an uplifting song—practically a cheer anthem—whose lyrics, “Now ring the bell, summon all your strength,” inspire courage in listeners.

Since there was no official source URL, I used an acoustic arrangement (cover by hitomi).

One of Dreams Come True’s standout breakup songs.

Even while showing a smile to close friends, there’s no way to deal with the turmoil inside.
