Sad Sweet Dreamer

"Sad Sweet Dreamer" was a number one single in the UK Singles Chart for one week in October 1974 for Sweet Sensation.

The second single from the British soul group, a soaring soul ballad heavily influenced by the Stylistics (and led by lead vocalist Marcel King's falsetto), "Sad Sweet Dreamer" became their first hit. Written by David Parton and co-produced by Tony Hatch & Parton. The song reached #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 the following spring. It charted similarly in Canada. Both Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent sang on the track to augment Sweet Sensation. Hatch wanted to work with them after they were discovered on New Faces whilst he was on the judging panel.

The song was used in the 2009 UK TV series, Red Riding. It was also featured in the 2013 film Rush.
