Sometimes, a band can achieve immortality with a single track, one song that lives on for eternity and which always plugs the listener back into a particular moment in time and for D:Ream, that song is Things Can Only Get Better, which has returned to the charts on no fewer than three occasions (to date): first in 1992, when it reached number 16, then a year later when it spent four weeks at number one, and again in 1997 when it received unlikely new life after a political party decided that its message contained within it a certain euphoria that might just unite the nation. (Their hunch was right: the political party won a landslide victory.)
But, as the band’s forthcoming hits collection, there was always so much more to D:Ream than one classic song. D:Ream: The Best Thing, is a collection of their biggest hits remastered from the original 2” tapes. It also includes unreleased live versions of tracks from their 1995 Shepherds Bush Empire gig, three unreleased demos including the original instrumental version of Things Can Only Get Better, two newly commissioned remixes from Mark Knight and Illyus & Barrientos, and some re-found unreleased remixes from the archive by Sasha, Leftfield, MK, Sure is Pure and Joy.
Proving a popular fit for bookers and audiences all over the UK and internationally and more popular than ever since performing Main Stage at Glastonbury in 2024, D:Ream are huge at festivals across the world – contact us for further details.
