Lyrics
Fever dream kids
In midst of TV presidents
You go and train your hands
To hold your head up high
On the path of illusions
You lost your passport in a dolphin
When you went on your vacation
And now there is no vocation
For you back home
Fever
Fever dream kids
In the summer of
Fever
Fever dream kids
Grandparents staying in all day
And playing video games
The gold, the Sun and the sulphur
oh how it rains
We need more nurses
We need more teachers
& shop assistants
In the summer of
Fever
Fever dream kids
In the summer of
Fever
Fever dream kids
Who is gonna tell you what to do?
Who is gonna feed you?
Fever dream kids

Thanks guys, you are the best!! Should we do a live video for "Fever Dream Kids"?
Wow I would love to see/hear a live version of “Fever Dream Kids” for sure! Trust me, by all the comments you see here… WE LOVE YOU Night Tapes!! And I’d particularly love to see you live in concert once you can start touring. Stop by NYC!
I first heard “Fever Dream Kids” while listening to DKFM Shoegaze radio winter 2020 and it has stood out for me ever since. It’s one of those songs that actually had the power to change how I listened to and sought out new music which is rare. The first time that ever happened to me, I was 15 yrs old and heard The Cocteau Twin’s “Pearly Dew Drops Drops” play on the radio for the first time and it changed my taste in music forever. Never heard anything like it then… and since, frankly. CT forever! Your sound is so fresh, otherworldly and strangely beautiful… and I never want it to stop.
Then I just heard “Truly Being Alive” for the first time on the same station weeks ago and I’m still mesmerized by the singular brilliance of this song. A sonic tour de force beautifully written about the struggle, the joy, the pain of being in love and being alive… all in one, the same. A live performance of this song would truly be a gift to the world. On this song Iiris, your high notes remind be of Kate Bush’s classic fluttering falsettos, your crystal clear two-part harmonies remind me of The Cocteau Twin’s Elizabeth Fraser and her mellifluous polyphony, the darkened bass and key cords remind me of Bauhaus and the lyrics hearken to the introspective angst of Galaxie 500. I can hear the influences of Shoegaze, Goth and Electronica throughout. You might say your sound could usher in a new genre of music… so what’s it called? Spacegaze?
But enough gushing… you are my new muse Iiris and I am at your mercy. Please play live whatever you’d like. Your loyal fans are all ears!!
Definitely my favorite song of yours. A live version would be pretty sweet.
Yes!!
A most emphatic and resounding yes fucking yeah.
HELL YEAH
My friend died last week from an overdose and I’ve had this on repeat, it’s helped me through it. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing something so personal! Lots of love and space to be vulnerable.
I’m sorry to hear this. I’m all to familiar with friends dying that way. I’m so grateful to be 3 years sober
You guys are gonna be big, I just know it. Wow.
Why isn't this a massive hit? Such an amazing song! Fantastic stuff
God I love 💘 this song. It feels like Dark Euphoric dream, Escapism though the night.
Began with Drifting 2 hrs ago, listened everything they released and I can't get enough
same......
sometimes you can do the most amazing things on basically no budget.
this is just so good.
I love how this song goes from cute and bedroomy to totally f’in EPIC.
This is such a jam/gem. The video is soooooo vibey!
Without a doubt the best song of the 20s yet
O M G this is❤️🔥
@2:30 something happens in the song that’s indescribable
Found you today because of Spotify and I'm now obsessed and blown away.
The spirit of youth is what leaves with age. Youth not as ignorance or stubbornness, but youth as idealism and sense of purpose. The world isnt lost, too many have the lost the hope of youth.
Youth is lost when you aquire a demanding wife and annoying kids XD
This song is incredible; I’ve been listening to it on repeat. Make sure you play at Great Scott when you visit Boston.
Oh my gatos!!! This song 😱😍!!! And the new EP is so beautiful from start to finish. Thank you so much and keep crushing it!
Like treasure i don't want anyone to discover this golden band.. such a gem!
Once the masses discover obscure beauty it always seems to become less desirable when so many footprints have muddied it up. I couldn't agree more.
Great work, all!
Love you! You make the difference in my life.
Great vid & amazing people!
To me, music of a generation. Your messages hit me so profoundly, as does your freedom, and creative expression. Thank you for making music so incredibly good, chill and soothing at the same time.
Del mejor Shoegaze que he escuchado sin duda 🔥👌🎧
I hate when I lose my passport in a dolphin.
Adore!

Found you within the last couple weeks… and keep listening thru everything you’ve done… otherworldy 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for bringing your sound/that vibe to the world… [and hello from Canada]
Прекрасно,просто растворяешься в этой музыке,в конце напряжённого дня- как бальзам для души,и вся ваша музыка
0:55 anyone see that hole in the wall? 🤣
I want to make this band last forever. How do you that?
Found this on Spotify, it’s so good, I just assumed you guys were massively popular, but that only makes it more special!!
Refreshing expanding sweet and spacey as one likes it
No puedo creer que esta banda no esté sonando en cada lugar al que voy, son maravillosos ¡me encantan! ¡Mucho amor desde México! ❤️❤️❤️
Astounding song that captures the current zeitgeist through a gen Z lens. I am especially curious, at 3:09 Iiris hits two high notes in close succession, the second higher than the first. For those that have an ear for identifying music notes... what are the two high notes she hits flawlessly starting at 3:09??
So beautiful. So haunting. So dreamy. When i first listened to this song i imagined some atmospheric video and this captured it 10 times more beautifully. Feels like i'm under a spell !!
I came here and listened to.
This song reminds me of something indian and it's so good, just can't get enough of it.
Musical gem down here yowee
Just wow...! I love this ethereal bliss!
Your vaccation is your doom refer to foamy
This song is absolutely mesmerizing
Heard this on Radio 1 - Shazammed it - Wow keep up the vibe. Chilled out and the New Order guitar going on compliments the song nicely.

Great song, I love all your work. This one has a classic feel to it, almost like Every Breath You Take by The Police.
I hate to draw comparisons, but I’m getting like Grimes + Mazzy Star + Beach House vibes from this band and it’s beautiful.
Night Tapes has become my favorite band. With the new lp soon they may become my all time favorite. ❤ Love Them.
