Hello,

Today the song of the day is made by a band which I can appreciate very much. Their music is very good.
The song is from 1983, and is about the thing dreams are made of…

It are the Eurythmics with Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

What you maybe didn’t know about this song, is that the song was the breakthrough for their success.

Tomorrow another song!
