There are two groups known as the Beatnix. Both are Beatles cover bands. Read Full Bio ↴There are two groups known as the Beatnix. Both are Beatles cover bands.

1) The Beatnix concept was conceived and assembled in March 1980 by founding member Tony Dean, rhythm guitarist and vocalist (now retired to full-time management) as a live performance entity. This puts it amongst the longest running Beatles Tribute Shows in the world. The Beatnix show includes fully authentic musical instruments similar to those used by The Beatles. These include very rare and valuable guitars by Gretsch, Hofner, Rickenbacker and Gibson, Vox AC30 guitar amplifiers and a Vox AC50 bass amplifier with a T60 bass cabinet. The drums are identical to the ones used by Ringo, a 1960's model Ludwig Black Oyster Pearl kit complete with Zildjian cymbals. This, combined with a range of early period Beatle costumes and the colourful Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band outfits, give you the complete Beatles experience.

2) The Beatnix was the name of a project started by members of the Beatels before that band was formally started. They recorded a well-known collection of Lennon/McCartney songs called It's Four You, which was released at a time when the original Beatles recordings of those songs had never been officially published. Although the front cover and spine of the CD release do not name a band, the Beatnix drum logo occupies a large portion of the back cover. Soon after the release of this album, the actual Beatles recordings were published as part of the Anthology project.

This band continues to tour as the Beatels, and has played internationally since 1996.

I, I saw a girl in my dreams
And so it seems
That I will love her
Oh you, you are that girl
In my dreams
And so it seems
That I will love you

And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do

And I, I, I, I
Oh I'll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you
You, you came just one dream ago
And now I know that I will love you
I knew when you first said hello
That's how I know
That I will love you

And I, I, I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do

And I, I, I, I
Oh I'll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you
You, you came just one dream ago
And now I know that I will love you
Oh I knew when you first said hello

Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do

Oh, like dreamers do

Overall Meaning

In the first verse of The Beatles's song Like Dreamers Do, the singer talks about a girl that he has seen in his dreams and that he "will love her." He sees the girl in the second verse singing "you came just one dream ago and now I know that I will love you." Throughout the song, the singer mentions how he had been waiting for this girl's kiss, and he waited for the bliss "like dreamers do."

The song is a simple love song that speaks to the idea of finding love in dreams and waiting for that love to come true in reality. The repetition of the chorus, "And I, I, I, I, Oh I'll be there, yeah, Waiting for you, you, you, you, you" emphasizes the idea of the singer's unwavering love and determination to wait for the girl of his dreams.

The song is ultimately a declaration of love, sung with confidence that this love is meant to be. The chorus's repetition and the repeated waiting for the girl's kiss amplifies the idea that the singer is truly in love and that he will continue to wait for this love to come to fruition, "like dreamers do."
