**夢のはなし** and **MY DREAM** are the same release: Japanese and English titles for one CHAI single, not two separate songs.

Released **August 3, 2022** as the theme for [沖田修一](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinichi_Okuda)’s film **さかなのこ** (*Sakana no Ko*; also [*The Fish Tale*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fish_Tale) / *Sakananoko*, 2022; Tokyo Theatres), starring [**Non**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rena_N%C5%8Dnen) (のん; Rena Nounen) as Meebo — the fish-obsessed lead based on ichthyologist Sakana-kun — used over the ending and trailer. [@beformer promoted the film tie-in](https://www.instagram.com/p/CfYCDUmrY8o/) ahead of the **September 1, 2022** theatrical run; on **August 11, 2022** the same account [announced official Spotify Lorem placement](https://www.instagram.com/p/ChIZ7UBPmDx/) for **MY DREAM**, naming Scoobert Doobert on sound production. [Spincoaster](https://spincoaster.com/news/chai-yumenohanashi) credits Walton as サウンド・プロデュース (sound produce); [Bezzy](https://bezzy.jp/2022/08/5092/) (Aug 3, 2022) names California-based Scoobert Doobert on sound produce alongside the [まるごと](/songs/chai-whole/) credit; [Sony Music Japan](https://www.sonymusic.co.jp/artist/chai/info/543666) documents the tie-in and names Walton on sound production, building on [WHOLE](/songs/chai-whole/) (まるごと). [Official MV on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRZsRt_Ajrk), also on [/music/#selected-videos](/music/#selected-videos) and [/with/chai/#videos](/with/chai/#videos).

Non later wrote a [release congratulations comment](https://natalie.mu/music/news/542174) for CHAI’s self-titled album **CHAI** (Sep 22, 2023), alongside Shingo Murakami, Kaho Nakamura, Orono, [**Rivers Cuomo**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_Cuomo), and Sui Ishida — part of the same Japan network around Walton’s CHAI production arc. Cuomo separately added Walton/Woodward’s FEiN satire [**#Grownupz**](/songs/grownupz/) (**FEiN Times Issue #1**) to his public Spotify playlist [**DJ set**](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7ecIc0b9WmaP3soJSyZPB0) on **Feb 27, 2016** (track 3; playlist note: *here's the set I played at Melissa's party*): same title string, different song — but the same off-center indie taste that connects Weezer’s frontman, Non’s *Fish Tale* lead, and CHAI’s comment circle.

Part of the CHAI relationship that escalated from the Sub Pop [Miracle remix](/songs/miracle-scoobert-doobert-remix/) into NHK and film themes, alongside [ラブじゃん（ That's Love）](/songs/chai-thats-love/) and [Chill Takatsu](/songs/chai-chill-takatsu/). See [With CHAI](/with/chai/) for the full arc.
