Everybody Wants To Rule The World

I would be breaking one of my main goals of this blog if I did not, in quick order, highlight some of my absolute favorite songs of ALL TIME.  This song is right near the top of that list (and has been at the top at different times over the years) ...

Everybody Wants To Rule The World

 ... by Tears For Fears

What is there to not like about this song?!  Unless you hated 80's music (in which case you will HATE this blog), there is nothing bad you can say about this song!  The guitar riffs (and solos) throughout, and strong, rhythmic drum beats keep the song moving and your toes tapping.  The electronic keyboard is used sparingly in the song, but keeps that 80's staple right in the thick of things.  And last but certainly not least, the message is honest, slightly critical of society-at-large, but also intimately personal (if you want it to be).

Love it, love it, love it!  :)
