First post here, hi to you all!

Looking for help re: song from the 80s, guess you could call it New Wave, not sure.

Anyway, it's sung by a guy and he sings about someone being "one in a million children". Can't think of his name, driving me nuts!

Any assistance is greatly, greatly apprecited. New Wave Outpost folks rule!

There's a song called "One in a Million" by the Romantics. Probably not it.

Then there's "Whisper to a Scream" by Icicle Works that talks about children but not a million of them.

Don't worry someone from NWO will likely know exactly what you're lo

Hi Geoff: Thanks for posting... unfortunatley, not the song by the Romantics, not Icicle Works.

Part of the refrain repeats the "one in a million children" lines.

The refrain/chorus (I think) goes something like
"dream your dreams/and become one
