Empire of the Sun - "Walking on a Dream"

[Juan Carlos]

Empire of the Sun's 2008 single "Walking On a Dream" is currently under Cool New Music on the Hot AC format, following its sync in the 2016 Honda Civic ad dubbed as The Dreamer, which you could watch here.

[Juan Carlos]

From Headline Planet:

Thanks to its inclusion in Honda's 'The Dreamer' campaign, Empire Of The Sun's "Walking On A Dream" is enjoying a second life.

That second life includes an ascent at hot adult contemporary radio.

Spun 143 times during the January 24-30 tracking week, "Dream" ranks as the Mediabase Hot AC panel's #52 song. It was outside the Top 100 last week.

The track is at #52 on the Hot AC's Sunday published update.

Great! This should've been a smash so I hope it's a hit this time around, as random as that could be
