"Big Dreams" Performed by Rosey Carter-The Wildwood Rose

"Big Dreams" (for a little girl), is song #37 from the "PoPaBiLLy MuZic Song Library", (c) 4/13/2002. An original song written by Philip Adams -his late wife, Rosey Carter Adams (The Wildwood Rose of The Carter Family), and the late Bob House. Bob House's contributions to this song incorporate the storyline of a dancer in the lyrics. Bob must have loved writing songs about dancing, because he also wrote Anne Murray's hit song, "Can I Have This Dance". This song was originally inspired during a visit Rosey and Philip made to their friend Tommy Robert's home. Tommy's daughter was then 6 years old. She told Philip and Rosey that when she grew up, she was going to be a big star just like Rosey one day. Philip told her, "You got big dreams little girl!" The minute those words came out of Philip's mouth, he knew he had a great hook for song. Philip chewed on it in his head for a while. Then one day during a songwriting session at Rosey and Philip's house, while Bob House was present in the round, the sweetest inspirational song for little girls was born! Rosey's performance on this recording is felt with a strong emotional dramatic appeal that makes you just want to reach right out your arms and give that little dancing girl with "Big Dreams" a big hug!!! The song's lyric storyline of a dancing little girl demands the gorgeous mellow fluid timbre of the cello backing the images of a delicate floating ballerina. The melody of this song closely resembles a delightful tune one would hear from a wind up music box dancer. This is a very precious tender-hearted song and video reflecting the "Big Dreams" of a little girl, using nostalgia, fairy tale imagery, with hints of maternal love and instincts. Now a days people say, "Go Big or Go Home". So might as well have "Big Dreams"! Especially if you are a little girl!Show more
