Why it's here

"Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" is the 1983 single that broke Eurythmics into the mainstream and became their signature hit, and Annie Lennox publicly marked its 40th anniversary on January 4, 2023. [1] The song remains in active live circulation because Eurythmics co-founder Dave Stewart launched a North American touring run built around the Sweet Dreams album's 40th anniversary, performing the band's hits without Annie Lennox.

In culture

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.

Every date here is the date the source chart covers, never the date we fetched it. Sources publish on different lags: the Spotify mirror runs about two days behind, TurnTable publishes weekly. One recording, one history: this table also counts the rows sources published under 3 other handles of this record (remasters, official videos).

Worldwide feeds · not markets

A source's own worldwide chart. These are feeds, not places, so they are kept out of the market count above.

City pickups

City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
