Everybody Has a Dream

~ Recording by Billy Joel

Annotation

The album The Stranger ends on this track, but the last two minutes are in fact a reprise of the track The Stranger that appears earlier. The track title is however still "Everybody Has A Dream", no mention of the reprise.

Some track listings break this track into Everybody Has a Dreem (a shorter edit) and The Stranger (reprise) though it is not a distinct track on the CD nor a separate band on vinyl records.
