(1968)"Julia Dream" is the B-side of the Pink Floyd single "It Would Be So Nice". It was later issued on several compilation albums: "The Best of the Pink Floyd", "Relics", and "The Early Singles" disc included in the "Shine On" box set. The song was written and sung by Roger Waters.

The song is characterised by the slow tempo, the airy, ambient Mellotron sounds and lush chorus vocals. The melody of this song is based on the British lullaby, "All The Pretty Little Horses".

For some years people wondered what the final whispered lines in Julia Dream were (in the same way that some people thought that John Lennon said "I've buried Paul" on Strawberry Fields Forever when he actually said "cranberry sauce"). The whispered line in Julia Dream is "save me".Fact|date=August 2008
