LYRICS FROM "WHY DREAM"
Why dream about the future?
The sun is shining upon a world full of fear.
Please don't hesitate,
Before it is too late.
We dream about the future,
Where we'll be moving and choosing our own destiny.   more

ALBUM REVIEW

album cover for Focus, In and Out of Focus We all have the power to change the future, and it starts with dreaming about a world different—better—than the one we presently live in. That was Focus's message in 1970 on "Why Dream." The rest of the album explores a variety of themes, some fanciful, some serious. The song "Black Beauty" is a majesty blend of progressive rock and classic romanticism; "Happy Nightmare" is a trippy journey through the downside of halucination; and "Sugar Island" takes another kind of trip, this time to Caribbean-flavored rock/pop. In and Out of Focus also introduces "House Of The King ," which would become one of Focus's best-loved tunes. Overall, the album is nice melodic progressive rock throughout and is one of the group's best albums.
