Sweet Dreams (band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sweet Dreams were a UK vocal group comprising of Carrie Gray, Helen Kray and Bobby McVey. They won the BBC Television's A Song for Europe contest in 1983, with the song "I'm Never Giving it Up". It went on to represent the UK in the 1983 Eurovision Song Contest in Munich, where it was placed sixth. The song reached number 21 in the UK Singles Chart.

Under the name Dreams, the group re-emerged later in the year with a new look and a new sound, but their single "17 Electric" failed to chart.

Bobby McVey went on to become a local radio presenter. Carrie Gray married singer David Grant and became a vocal coach. In this role she appeared in BBC Television's Fame Academy in 2002-2004, and has also participated in BBC Three Eurovision programmes.
