"The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of" is the third single from Carly Simon's 1987 album Coming Around Again. The song was written by Simon and produced by John Boylan.[1][2] Simon performed the song at her iconic 1987 concert Live From Martha's Vineyard.

The song is one of Simon's biggest latter period AC hits, and as a result is included on multiple compilations of her work, which include 1995's 3-disc box set Clouds in My Coffee, the UK import The Very Best of Carly Simon: Nobody Does It Better, the 2-disc retrospective Anthology, 2004's single disc Reflections: Carly Simon's Greatest Hits, and 2014's Playlist: The Very Best of Carly Simon.

No official music video was made for this song, though a video was created and directed during a VHS recording of the Martha's Vineyard concert in mid-1988.

Charts

The song peaked at #8 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, where it lasted for seventeen weeks.[3] The song also charted in Ireland, peaking at #28.[4]
