"Dream of Me (Based on Love's Theme)" is a song by English electronic band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), released as the second single from their ninth studio album, Liberator (1993). The song uses a sample from "Love's Theme", a 1973 instrumental piece recorded by Barry White's Love Unlimited Orchestra. It was remixed by Gregg Jackman for release as a single and reached the top 30 in Belgium, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.

Billboard, in a positive review, wrote: "['Dream of Me'] is a sparkling pop bauble that will have you twirling back in time to your favorite disco memories. The tune itself is pretty and engaging, well-served by Andy McCluskey's warmly familiar voice."
