Wikipedia article"'When I Dream of Michelangelo'" is the eighth track on Counting Crows' 2008 album 'Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings' (the second on the more reflective "Sunday Mornings" half of the record). Although it was not released as a single, it was featured as the B-side to "1492" on a free downloadable "digital 45" that preceded the release of the album. In December 2008, it would also be serviced to the Adult Alternative (or Triple A) radio format as the third airplay single this era, following up the chart-topping "Come Around". It hit a peak of #7 on the chart on the 27th of March, 2009. The track shares a lyric from the band's earlier single "Angels of the Silences", from which the song's title originates: "I dream of Michelangelo when Im lying in my bed".
