Listen: “Dreams” – Jade Bird
Even on the windiest days, the weather can surprise us with unexpected changes, steering us towards new directions we are destined to explore.
Based in Los Angeles, Jade Bird conveys clarity through evolving love dynamics in her single “Dreams,” as she soars into a fresh horizon, asserting her independence through heartbreak, sorrow, and a newfound self-reliance reflected in her songwriting on her third album, Who Wants To Talk About Love, released on July 18 via Glassnote Records.
Who Wants to Talk About Love – Jade Bird
Every moment of our lives involves choices about how we navigate change and face challenges related to heartbreak. Jade Bird offers a steadfast sound and harmonious resonance through her strong vocals. The song benefits from the production of Grammy-winning Greg Kurstin, emphasizing her authentic folk-infused Americana style with each acoustic note. Enhanced by impactful strumming, her performance leaves a strong impression, inviting listeners into a new awareness with every steady beat.
There’s nothing good and nothing fun
about trying to love someone
Who can’t seem to do anything but stand and fight
Is this what dreams are made of?
Driving on a beautiful day while you’re falling apart
Is this what dreams are made of
Being so in love, you can only break their heart
As listeners cruise on a sunny day with windows down, their hearts open, and eyes focused ahead, there’s a redeeming quality in the song's tone, even amidst its heavier moments. Jade describes her “Dreams” as a “very dark song.” She recalls seeing a billboard on her way to the studio after a tough breakdown. Having gone to bed at 5 am and reading “this is what dreams are made of,” she felt an ironic contrast with the LA sun. The song expresses feeling too fractured to be with the one you love, pushing them away due to generational habits and (what she prefers not to call) trauma.

She generates a new breeze in “Dreams” to clarify, uplift, and empower the spirit.
