Spider-Noir, which premiered globally on Amazon Prime on May 27, has an incredible soundtrack filled with iconic songs. One of the most memorable in the series is performed by actress Li Jun Li, who sings a cover of “Dream a Little Dream of Me.”
This song, which was originally copyrighted in 1930, was first recorded by Ozzie Nelson. However, it gained the most popularity when it was covered by The Mamas & the Papas in 1968. Over the years, it was also recorded by Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Louis Armstrong, Michael Bublé, and Ella Fitzgerald.
When speaking about the origin of the lyrics with Donald Kahn, the son of lyricist Gus Kahn, he told NPR, "Johnny Mercer, who was one of the really other great lyric writers, used to call my father the tune hog because my dad wrote with everybody and 'Dream a Little Dream' is a sterling example of it. My dad would get tunes from people and my mother would play the tunes for him and he would sit and grumble mostly. He always tried to keep his lyrics simple, but he also said that young men and women do not know how to say 'I love you' to one another so we say it for them in 32 bars.”
“Dream a Little Dream of Me” isn’t the only iconic tune on the Spider-Noir soundtrack. The series is filled with excellent music, thanks to composers Kris Bowers and Michael Dean Parsons.

When speaking about the music in the show, Bowers told Variety, “Showrunner and executive producer Oren Uziel and the team trusted us to shape this world through its music, and we shared an enthusiasm for using clear, memorable melodies to carry character and story. For Michael and me, Spider-Noir was a rare chance to put everything we love about scoring to picture into a single show.”
Parsons added, “Spider-Noir is the kind of musical opportunity a composer dreams about. It gave us the chance to not only write music that is emotional and thematic, but also to freely blend genres and sounds that wouldn’t normally coexist. The more we leaned into these juxtapositions – combining noir and superhero sensibilities, then layering in experimental synthesizers, electric guitars, and other modern textures – the more natural it all felt within this unique world.”
Spider-Noir is a live-action series about Spider-Man that takes place during the Great Depression, starring Nicolas Cage. Li plays Cat Hardy, a nightclub singer. The entire first season is streaming now.
