This great classic song titled "In the Nick of Time" was performed by the legendary Patti LaBelle, and was taken from the classic comedy film "Brewster's Millions" (starring Richard Pryor and John Candy) released in 1985!
In this video, you can hear three versions of the song: Original, instrumental, and acapella (vocals only)!
Trivia:
The Back to the Future Connection: Huey Lewis wrote the song while he was working on tunes for a major 1985 movie. When director Robert Zemeckis asked Lewis for a song, Lewis offered "In the Nick of Time," but it was ultimately used for Brewster's Millions instead. Lewis replaced it by writing his massive hit "Back in Time"!

Original Movie Version:
0:00
Vocal/Acapella:
2:11
This unreleased version of the song is the one heard in the film, which starts off vocally/acapella and then the music is added in!
I left the music without the sound effects originally heard in this scene!
The album version is complete without the acapella version at the beginning!
The second version of this same scene is the complete vocal/acapella version without music!
About the scene:
In the film,Tanya sings this song as shes performing chores for her family. Cat R. Waul overhears her and becomes captivated by her voice, bringing her to his saloon to be a singer. This song is part of Tanyas trademark!
Trivia:
Dreams to Dream is a song by James Horner and Will Jennings, based on a short instrumental piece from An American Tail (which can be heard in the Orphan Alley scene), appearing in the 1991 animated film An American Tail: Fievel Goes West.
There are three versions of the song in the film, one with Cathy Cavadini performing Tanyas version, one being Linda Ronstadt performing the finale version and one being Sarah Lasko performing her own version, which includes extra lyrics.
Released as a single on MCA in late 1991, the song climbed to #13 on Billboards Adult Contemporary chart but did not cross over to the Hot 100. The music video features Ronstadt performing the song intercut with clips from Fievel Goes West.
The composition was nominated in 1992 for a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture!
Lyrics for the Tanyas version(Performed by Cathy Cavadini):
[Verse 1]
Dreams to dream
In the dark of the night
When the world goes wrong
I can still make it right
I can see so far in my dreams
Ill follow my dreams until they come true
[Verse 2]
Come with me
You will see what I mean
Theres a world inside
No one else ever sees
You will go so far in my dreams
Somewhere in my dreams
Your dreams will come true
[Verse 3]
There is a star
Waiting to guide us
Shining inside us
When we close our eyes
[Verse 4]
Dont let go
If you stay close to me
In my dreams tonight
You will see what I see
Dreams to dreams
As near as can be
Inside you and me
Will always come true...!

This 80s song is little known and only peaked at number 6 on the Australian Kent Music Report in 1985!
In my opinion its a great song, well written with the beautiful voice performed by Tina Cross, that could have been a worldwide hit!

Lyrics:

Understand me and let me be
Too-oo young, dont you think
To-oo promise anything
Too-oo young, dont you know
Understand me and let me go
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ay, Im too young for promises
I know, I know, you got to prove your proud
Cause youre like that
I know, I know, you make me speak in tones
Cause you are like that
Chan-anges of seasons, I havent lived through-ough
Tell what you want and have free-ee-eedom
So what do I do-oo
