I am looking for a song title. Unfortunately, I can only remember a
few lyrics from this song, please help.

I heard this song back in 1994. It was on a CD I owned and I believe
it was made around this time as well. This song was quite popular in
1994 in many nightclubs in North America and Europe, and it would
most likely be classified in the techno/euro category, although it
could
also be industrial or jungle. The chorus of this song are the words
"The American Dream comes to those who...". Those are the words that
are uttered throughout the song. I remember there being a deep male
voice uttering these words and then a high pitches female voice
(possible in french) saying other things in the background. I believe
this song was NOT a single, and was instead part of an album produced
by the same singers/band/group here is heavy base in the background
throughout. I think the singers/band/group behind this song was be in
whole or in part European, but I am not certain. Does anyone know the
name of this song or the group that sings it?. The song may actually
be called "The American Dream", but no search for it online produced
any results for me. This song came out in 1994 and is not new.

Any ideas as to the title of this song or the group behind it?.

I think you are referring to a song by 'LA Style' called 'James Brown is
Dead' recorded in 1992. This song features a sample of a speech by
Richard Nixon, who said 'The American Dream does not come to those who
fall asleep'.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Brown_Is_Dead (this article doesn't
mention the quote - but it is apparently in there.)

Reviews here do mention the quote:

P-Dub: Steel Pulse has nothing to do with this.

Have you tried shazam or soundcloud to find the title?
