"Together in Electric Dreams" is a song by the British singer and composer Philip Oakey and Italian composer and producer Giorgio Moroder. It was written by Oakey and Moroder and recorded for the original soundtrack of the film Electric Dreams (1984). It later formed part of the joint album Philip Oakey & Giorgio Moroder (1985). Released as a single in the United Kingdom in September 1984, "Together in Electric Dreams" reached No. 3 in the UK Singles Chart, staying on the chart for 13 weeks. The single also reached the top five in Australia and had moderate chart success in New Zealand and the Netherlands.

The film Electric Dreams was director Steve Barron's first full feature film. Barron's prior work included conceiving and directing a number of innovative music videos during the beginning of the 1980s. His biggest success up to that point had been as director of the music video for the Human League's "Don't You Want Me" in 1981, which helped the single become number one in the United Kingdom and United States.
