"Selling Dreams" (formerly "Slangin' Dreams" or "Slanging Dreams"[1]) is an unreleased song written by Rivers Cuomo in collaboration with Jacob Kasher and Matt Squire.
Overview
"Selling Dreams" has never been officially released or heard by fans. The song's existence became known after the title "Slangin' Dreams" was added to the BMI Repertoire (BMI work ID# 19564709). The song's BMI work number suggests that it was written around 2014 (possibly around the same time as "Back to the Shack," also co-written by Kasher). In September of 2023, Rivers Cuomo submitted numerous demos to producer Klas Åhlund for consideration for Weezer's planned twentieth album, which Åhlund narrowed down to thirty, among which was "Slangin' Dreams" (renamed "Selling Dreams" as of early November).
