Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travelled 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

I'm gonna fight 'em all
A Seven Nation Army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back

And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes says

Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up, moving on
Hold your head up, moving on
Keep your head up

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travelled the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Good version with some tasty vocal and instrumental details, but still pales in comparison.

Pretty flat and lifeless compared to the Eurythmics' version. Doesn't do much for me.

I think I like it better than the source material, which is saying something.

Gotta give them a "7," (6 for the mashup,  +1 for naming themselves after a grapefruit.)   I would have upped it another 1 if they had dressed as said fruit for their stage performance.

Doesn't do it for me.  Better covers available.  No driving bass, or any bass at all.

Been a long time since I attended one, but I still recall.   You are correct.

Defintely prefer to hear both the originals back-to-back rather than this.

Thank you Pomplamoose, Radio Paradise, and The Internet for this. 
I can safely say I never would have heard this otherwise.

I saw Nataly Dawn a few years ago in a concert in Birmingham (UK) and she was really good.  I quite like Pomplamoose.

Well I like both tracks this has mashed up - but not sure about the mixture

Don't mind it all, nice and upbeat

I wonder what all the hate for this song is: solid 7 from me

Nice to hear some Pomplamoose

No matter what you might think of this cover.  Jack Conte from this band and Ryan Lerman (Scary Pockets, John Legend, Ben Folds Five) have an excellent YouTube channel called "Dead Wax" which is basically musicians nerding out about music.  Definitely worth a watch if you are a music fan at all.

"They are known for their...covers of popular songs."  I think this mashup is really good!  Seamless transitions, well-carried themes, excellent harmonization, and quite noticeably faithful to the originals.  Hard to beat if you're into that sort of thing.  I didn't know that I was (into that sort of thing), and once again RP gets all the kudos for expanding my musical awareness and appreciation.  8 just 'cause I really want to hear it again!

Doesn't add much originality other than a mash up.

5 rating to start.  My rating being the 8th.
