On the acoustic remix version of her beloved single “Dreamin’,” Vancouver, BC-based pop singer Jessica Chaz mixes soulful R&B with reflective, introspective guitar to create an ultimately hopeful message about the power of dreams and imagination.

What are you hoping for every night
Come on it’s time they say, it’s time to start a real life
But how do they know, what’s in sight, what is right
This ain’t a dream no more, this is my life

Even though the narrator feels discouraged, the song shifts in perspective when Chaz begins to sing, “I’ll keep working every day, oh/ I’ll keep hoping for a break, oh,” paying tribute to the power of faith beyond what’s in view right now.

Originally released in 2018, the original version of “Dreamin’” has racked up 80K views on YouTube. Chaz believes the message is relevant now more than ever, as we grapple with a “new normal” post-pandemic.
