"Still I Dream of It" is a song by American rock band the Beach Boys that was recorded in early 1977. Written by Brian Wilson, the song was written for Frank Sinatra, but was also intended for Stevie Wonder or Elton John, in case Sinatra would reject it.[1] The band recorded the song for their album Adult/Child, which was never released.
In 1993, the track was released on the box set Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of The Beach Boys. A demo version of Brian Wilson singing the song and accompanying himself on piano was included on Wilson's 1995 solo album I Just Wasn't Made for These Times.
