{1}In 1976, "Dream Weaver" was a hit single reaching #2 in the U.S. Billboard charts and #1 in the U.S. Cash Box charts. It also hit #1 in Australia, Canada and Europe. The song was the inspiration for the signature theme of A Nightmare on Elm Street and according to Wright, he was inspired to write the song because of literature on Hinduism and India, given to him by George Harrison.
