I Can't Live A Dream
"I Can't Live a Dream" is a 1976 single by The Osmonds as the first track on their ''Brainstorm'' LP.. It was written by Arnold Capitanelli and first recorded by Frankie Valli in 1975 on his solo album ''Closeup''. After The Osmonds charted a top-40 hit and easy listening chart-topper in 1975 with another Valli cover, "The Proud One," the quintet recorded "I Can't Live a Dream" as a follow-up. It was the lead single of two released from the album, and was the only one to chart. As was the case with most of the Osmonds' mid-1970s singles, only Merrill Osmond (by this point sporting a short-lived mustache to help distinguish himself from his brothers) sang lead vocals. The song reached number 46 in the U.S. and number 50 in Canada. It was a marginally better performer on the Easy Listening charts, peaking at number 38 in the U.S. and number 35 in Canada. In the United Kingdom, "I Can't Live a Dream" reached number 37. "I Can't Live a Dream" would be the final top-100 pop hit in a ...

The Osmond Brothers
The Osmonds were an American family music group who reached the height of their fame in the early to mid-1970s. The group had its best-known configurations as a quartet (billed the Osmond Brothers) and a quintet (the Osmonds). The group has consisted of siblings who are all members of a family of musicians from Ogden, Utah, and have been in the public eye since the 1960s. The Osmond Brothers began as a barbershop quartet consisting of brothers Alan, Wayne, Merrill and Jay. They were later joined by younger siblings Donny and Jimmy, both of whom enjoyed success as solo artists. With the addition of Donny, the group became known as the Osmonds; performing both as teen idols and as a rock band, their peak lasted from 1971 to 1975. Their only sister Marie, who rarely sang with her brothers at that time, launched a successful career in 1973, both as a solo artist and as Donny's duet partner. By 1976, the band was no longer producing hit singles; that year, they transitioned in ...
