D:Ream are a Northern Irish pop and dance group. They achieved a UK No. 1 hit with "Things Can Only Get Better" in 1994. Eight further top 40 hits followed, including "U R the Best Thing", "Take Me Away" and "Shoot Me with Your Love". Their two 1990s studio albums both reached the UK top five.
The group had a line-up that varied in number but was centred on lead singer and instrumentalist Peter Cunnah. Live and session keyboard player Brian Cox became an academic and science broadcaster on television.
