Only in Dreams is a song penned by Rivers Cuomo for Weezer's The Blue Album in 1994. At nearly eight minutes it is currently the longest song by Weezer, including unreleased material.

When asked in 2006 what guitar solo he is the most proud of/likes the most, he answered "I'd have to go with "Only in Dreams" and (Make Believe track) "Haunt You Every Day" for sheer length. Epic, epic, epic. So few people play these kinds of solos anymore." [1]

Rock band Ash has covered the song.
