Tonight’s mystery artists wrote a song that was described by Rolling Stone Magazine as a lavish daydream. Can you guess the song or whose daydream it might have been??

I guess according to the author of the tune it was actually Jullian’s daydream, at least to start. Story goes that he brought home a drawing he had made in nursery school of his friends Lucy O’Donnell and told his dad John Lennon the picture was of "Lucy—in the Sky with Diamonds".

 Julian Lennon said, "I don't know why I called it that or why it stood out from all my other drawings, but I obviously had an affection for Lucy at that age. I used to show Dad everything I'd built or painted at school, and this one sparked off the idea.

Later on Rolling Stone magazine described the song as "Lennon's lavish daydreams while music critics said "'Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" was one of the best songs on the Beatles' famous Sgt. Pepper album. There are few other songs that so successfully evoke a dream world, in both the sonic textures and words."

No live performances of tonight's song so here is the Cirque Du Soleil interpretation:
