Dreamlover is a song written and produced by American singer Mariah Carey, Dave Hall and Walter Afanasieff, and recorded for Carey's fourth album Music Box (1993). Columbia Records executives brought in Afanasieff to tone the song down, because they felt the original production was too rough and mellow. It is built around a sample of The Emotions' "Blind Alley," written by David Porter, but uses a Hammond organ. Its protagonist pictures an ideal man, her "dream lover". It was released as the first single from Music Box in the third quarter of 1993, and marked the start of a trend of Carey's to use samples as backbones for the lead singles from her studio albums; later examples include "Fantasy" (1995), "Honey" (1997) and "Heartbreaker" (1999). It was nominated for the 1994 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, losing to "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston. It won a BMI Pop Award, as had Carey's every U.S. single other than "I'll Be There". "Dreamlover" has been one of Carey's most popular songs in concert, through 2006 holding a regular slot in all of her tours' setlists, often near the beginning of the show.
