"Fantasy Is Reality" is a 1977 song recorded by the funk band Parliament.[1] It was the only single released from the album Live: P-Funk Earth Tour. The song was originally recorded during Parliament's period at Invictus Records. Unlike the bulk of Live: P-Funk Earth Tour, "Fantasy Is Reality" was recorded in the studio, as was its B-side, "The Landing (Of the Holy Mothership)".[2]
"Fantasy Is Reality" was cut from the album's 1991 CD reissue, but was included on the Parliament compilation album Tear the Roof Off 1974-1980.[3] A version is also featured as a bonus track on the CD reissue of Osmium. It reached number 54 in the U.S. on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles chart.[4]
The midtempo track has been called a "churchy funk ballad".[1][3]
