In Between Dreams by Jack Johnson
In Between Dreams is an album by Jack Johnson, released in 2005. 5 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 63 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Sitting, Waiting, Wishing”, on 28 lists with a best position of #7.
In Between Dreams, Jack Johnson's third album, came out on Brushfire Records on March 1, 2005, and it's the Hawaii-born songwriter doing what he does best: keeping things easy. Mario Caldato, Jr. produced, and the songs sit in a warm, unhurried folk-rock groove, soft acoustic strumming, loose, easy rhythms and that sleepy, sun-bleached voice.
"Sitting, Waiting, Wishing" and "Good People" had the most bite, "Better Together" and "Banana Pancakes" are cozy as a Sunday morning, and "Breakdown" rounds out a set built for hammocks and long drives. Critics shrugged, but the public didn't: the album climbed to number two on the Billboard 200 in 2005 and returned to that spot in 2013.
