Reuben And The Dark: Dreaming

Driven by a ringing guitar riff and Reuben Bullock's vigorous vocal style, this cut from the Arms Of A Dream album has a yearning yet optimistic feel. It is accompanied by an eye-catching self-directed video shot in Barcelona.

Reuben And The Dark: Dreaming

By Kerry Doole

Reuben And The Dark - "Dreaming" (Arts & Crafts): The spirited folk-rock outfit led by songwriter/vocalist Reuben Bullock recently released a new album, Arms Of A Dream.


Driven by insistent ringing guitar and Bullock's energetic vocals, focus track "Dreaming" has a yearning yet optimistic feel (sample lyric: "let your mind run wild"), and the eye-catching self-directed video neatly accentuates this.

In a label press release the semi-professional skateboarder, Bulloch explains: "Barcelona is a holy city for skateboarding. It's always been a dream of mine to go to the city and skate, but I never thought music would be the thing to take me there."

50 Cent Talks Debut Novel, Celibacy and Never Getting Married on ‘Late Show’: ‘I’m Not a Happy Hostage’

The rapper also talked about the surprise Dr. Dre drop-in at his 12-year-old son Sire's birthday party.

According to 50 Cent, marriage is good for thee, but not for he. The hip-hop mogul sat down with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday night (Sept. 4) to chop it up about his happily unwedded lifestyle, as well as doubling down on a vow of celibacy he claimed has allowed him to stay super-focused.

“Listen, when you calm down you can focus,” 50 said after Colbert read a recent magazine headline touting the near-billionaire’s sex-free lifestyle. “I’ve been good to me.” Colbert wondered what the money was for then if not to share with the love of his life, with 50 (born Curtin Jackson) explaining, “[Money is] when things start getting complicated, things start getting confusing, ‘cause people come in for different reasons.”
