Sweet Dreams (are Made of This) Lyrics:
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Hold your head up, keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on, keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on, keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on, keep your head up
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
I travel the world and the seven seas

[@Basiccynic]

[@theothersongs]

Who knows! It was an incredible moment on the night.

[@badellA86]

"I pretended I was normal"... Lol, gotta love Dave ❤

[@celebrityrog]

I've NEVER heard David speak, barely ever sing, so hearing him be cheeky and totally opposite what I thought he would be gives me so much more respect for the group than I ever did before. The breakdown of this song, is just historically music changing.

[@andrewtalcott4032]

Who is the vocalist, needs credit she is amazing!

[@theothersongs]

She is called Rahh - an incredible artist in her own right.

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

damn, goosebumps... the more i listen to this

[@theothersongs]

So good!

[@wib6044]

This is amazing! Love the live music accompanying the story. Great song, great story! Brilliant.

[@sarahrixson2134]

[@beergood83]

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

[@johnmchugh9914]

[@hassleemof]

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

[@theothersongs]

Incredible from Dave!

[@Hotdogger808]

The Roland SH01....what can you say....it is the sound of my generation along with a myriad others including Sequential circuits Prophet, the Roland Jupiter 8 and 808 and the Yamaha DX7, Moog, Juno 60 etc These sounds are all simply sublime! Great Video......lots of gen Xr's would love to see this........

[@PAGcanada]

[@theothersongs]

She's called Rahh - we couldn't agree more!

[@cooper7031]

[@boollyboolly]

Eek. The guitar tech must have been $hitting it!!!

[@808timelord4]

Annie Way

[@sommersprossenalarm4641]

Annie hat im Gegensatz zu dieser ,ebenfalls großartigen!, Sängerin eine unfassbar klare Stimme und Aussprache.

[@leehackett1614]

It’s sad because she’s a good singer but we all want Annie. There’s far too many voice effects she did that weren’t needed

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

👍🏼 Lennox...Hard act to follow Very hard....

[@cristiano2pf3lz]

How I missed Annie's vocals...

[@MrYanngo]

very good version, the vocalist has many "modern" and trendy vocal tics that are a bit irritating quite frankly. May be a generational thing but it seems they all try to sound like that for some reason.

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

It has become very grating over the last two decades.... They practice it by ruining national anthems.... Somewhere somebody got it in their head that your voice only sounds cool doing gymnastics. No thanks. She's far from the worst, but there was an element of it in there. You simply can't deny that.

[@johnking6632]

Sorry but she is murdering the vocals. Who can follow Annie though ❤

[@planetmoon5817]

I am drunk. and so were the beatles. Here we all are. Mr Trump. We Can´t compete. You are . and everything.evovles

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

Hang on I'm going to get my decoder ring.....
