Have to give credit first to rappers who rock? Oh and all the rock and rollers who came before them and are long dead and didn’t get in. It’s a shame they sleep on pioneering rock bands like Tears for Fears. SMH
It just has to be one of the best songs of all time. “Welcome to your life, there’s no turning back” also has to be one of the best opening lines of all time.
These guys should be the halftime show at the Superbowl. Their appeal is multigenerational, etc. And they have enough recognizable material to do the whole show...
Truly one of the greatest bands of the 80’s. I still go and see them in concert whenever I can since they reunited. Both are so talented and songwriters too. But as long as JayZee has control of the Super Bowl halftime show. We will see nothing but rappers.
Testing your "huge fan" claim... What was their B side to EWTRTW? What album did Roland release under his own name and when? What was the meaning behind the song RATKOS?
@@LatinoTropico Sad that Tomcats was released on 9/11 and was lost in the tragedy. Also, I'm not whom you're asking but I listen to that B side weekly; how could you not love the shipping forecast set to music? Finally for those whom want the reference, RatKoS is an album that is semi-autobiographical and the particular song is pretty much a summary of his life and the album; Roland was born as "Raoul" but his mother changed his name to make it more english and his family on his fathers side is spanish (Spain).
The intro --- whenever I hear it, it takes me back to being 16, rhe happiest months of my life, when I had all my family still alive and how much I was loved by them. It makes me smile and reminds me how lucky I am to have had them.
I loved "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" in high school. Then it makes a comeback and I heard my son singing it. Told me it was one of his favorite songs. Too cool.
So much respect for their talent and signature sound! They helped pave the way for countless “alternative” rock artists! Incredible to see them still loving what they do and performing together!
Unfortunately it has grown old. TFF are not just a one-hit wonder with this song. Did you know this song was actually going to be called Everybody Wants a War? Kid you not. EWTRTW is a commercial radio hit song played to death. Would love just once to hear TFF's Memories Fade on the radio, just once.
For real. I was born in the early 80’s and was way into “grunge” and didn’t like 80’s music as much but this band and song stuck with me. Now I love it all as fond nostalgia. The smell of burnt hair and hair spray was the 80’s 💯
This is my favourite car crank song from 1985. I blast ' Everybody Want To Rule The World' every time it comes on the radio, I sing my brains out. They sound fantastic.
From "The Hurting" to now. Still a powerhouse duo. Both Roland and Curt have sung lead on some iconic tunes over the years. Maybe you don't know this... "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" was originally written as "Everybody Wants to Go to War." It was a smart change in lyrics!
These two just are just awesome! I don't care how many times i hear their songs, watch their videos or see them perform live, i still get the same amazing feeling. From 15 years old to now 55. I will forever love Tears for Fears!❤❤❤
When I saw this I got off my couch and started Jamming I'm saying, "I'm with you Judges"😂. They definately deserve to be in the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame they deserve it.
It was a beautiful summer day in Paros, Greece, in 1985. A fisherman in his boat was skimming across the water, blasting the song "Everybody Wants to Rule the World." Every time I hear this song, it transports me back to that beautiful summer in Greece. Life is good.
Wol, surprise! I love this song, it's one of the most perfect songs in the world. It fills the soul, it's good for the ears and not to mention it's pure nostalgia. Congratulations to The Voice's role in bringing this iconic band Tears for Fears
Saw them a year or two back after the release of "The Tipping Point." They still sound incredible and put on an amazing show. Loved these gents since my childhood.
TFF was my first concert in 1985. Still have the muscle shirt I bought at the show...and still adore them! Roland and Curt's voices sound as good as they ever did! ❤
Seen them 37 times in concerts/events and it is an euphoric experience every time. Feel like you’re floating on air - they are experts in this industry! #MusicHeals (witnessed miracles at their shows…medical ones - this band has power!)
I love this group & this song. What a treat to see them on The Voice. I watch them on my VHS over & over again in the 80’s. Thank you The Voice.👍🏻💗💗💗😍😍😍
They make simply great music,..it´s very nice to see them any time. They remember me at the best times ever. Nowadays I see no one.., witch makes iconic Music, like these guys.
You are the epitome of living your best life doing what you love to do!! Thank you Tears for Fears for sharing your music!! It has positively influenced my young adult live and helped me who I am today!!💜
I LOVE Tears for Fears!!! I am soooo happy that they're still putting out new music. OMG, I did not realize they aren't in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! They, hands down, should be! Let's make it happen! ♥
Yeah they do lol. Here we are turning our back on Mother Nature again and nobody is on their best behavior these days. Good to hear these beautiful songs again! They even got the coaches up and out of their chairs!
They deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Have to give credit first to rappers who rock? Oh and all the rock and rollers who came before them and are long dead and didn’t get in. It’s a shame they sleep on pioneering rock bands like Tears for Fears. SMH
I totally agree. Long overdue
They definitely deserve the Hall Of Fame
Their songs are so well structured and great lyrics
..yes to HOF
I so agree! I have seen them in concert many times. They are amazing
It just has to be one of the best songs of all time.
“Welcome to your life, there’s no turning back” also has to be one of the best opening lines of all time.

Totally agree
I hope Roger G. sees this!
@@raynavarraI won’t watch the halftime show anymore. Unless I could see some decent singers, music etc.
I would LOVE to see them perform at the Superbowl!
The anthem of the 80’s. Love it.
Yes they are great they still make lots of hearts cry with love and joy.
YES!👍 👍👍
Yessss! I remember seeing them in concert in the 80's. I was in jr high.
Magnificent!
Indeed it was.
Oh my goodness!! They still sound so good!!!
Yes, their band does.
Saw them in concert the last two years. So good.
I love Tears For Fears😊
Awesome 80s
Me too. So happy to see them looking and sounding good. 💯
Me too 🥰
Roland and Curt...just WOW!
Been a HUGE fan since the early 80s. Pale Shelter, Change, etc.
Never disappoint.
Testing your "huge fan" claim... What was their B side to EWTRTW? What album did Roland release under his own name and when? What was the meaning behind the song RATKOS?
I love Pale Shelter. And Suffer the Chlldren. :)
@@LatinoTropico Not you trying to be gatekeeper 🙄
Just stop

best song ever!!! Just from the intro I feel like we’re in the 80s all over again ❤
I am with you 100% on that.
@@snk1008me too..
Those teenage years❤❤❤

@@thenightporter thank you for sharing this beautiful thought❤ I wish you all the best❤
40 years later and I'm a kid again looking up at the big screen on the dance floor. Awesome then and awesome now.
I loved "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" in high school. Then it makes a comeback and I heard my son singing it. Told me it was one of his favorite songs. Too cool.
Bom gosto começa pelo país e assim os filhos levam pra sua vida está de parabéns e abraço do Brazil .
Your kid has really good taste!
Circle completed. So cool.
So much respect for their talent and signature sound! They helped pave the way for countless “alternative” rock artists! Incredible to see them still loving what they do and performing together!
Will forever love these dudes. I still listen to this as if it's the first time. It never grows old! 😊

Totally agree with you Lisa… Never ever gets old for me. A magic song with so many memories attached to it.
There’s certain tunes that capture the mood of the era and this tune encapsulates the 80’s.
For real. I was born in the early 80’s and was way into “grunge” and didn’t like 80’s music as much but this band and song stuck with me. Now I love it all as fond nostalgia. The smell of burnt hair and hair spray was the 80’s 💯
Tears For Fears, please go on another world tour and come back to Toronto!!!!
They deserve to be in the Rock n Roll Gall Hall of Fame
AGREED! 💯
This is my favourite car crank song from 1985. I blast ' Everybody Want To Rule The World' every time it comes on the radio, I sing my brains out. They sound fantastic.
Classics are still the best
I gree
@@cesarnascimento Always will be!!
Still rocking the tunes 39 years later, gotta hand it to them, they sound great.😼
This song always takes me back to the 80's. The good times
Still sound great today as they did in the 80s.
Might want to get a hearing test done, lol.
I agree. They sound like they did back then.
tears for fears.... when i was young been listening of their songs...now I'm 53 years old bravo
The best performance last night
Dear The Voice contestants, learn from these legends!
Their voices had not aged. EWTRTW always takes me back to my teens. "Real Genius" (If you know, you know.) 😉
Popcorn🍿!!!
One of my favorite movies from the 80s.
@@rickg8015 Yes! Laser popped!
A girl's gotta have her standards 😆
These men are generational music. Once in a lifetime. Like The Beatles. Generational! Impactful!
These duo are fine wine... respect
Curt and Roland are a fine wine blend ❤
Yes. Best song ever. A classic. Love it. My favorite of all time. ❤🎉
I just saw them live. It was so great. Listened to them my whole life. So happy to see them popular again
From "The Hurting" to now. Still a powerhouse duo. Both Roland and Curt have sung lead on some iconic tunes over the years. Maybe you don't know this... "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" was originally written as "Everybody Wants to Go to War." It was a smart change in lyrics!

Can’t wait to see them! The world needs their music back on radio.
TFF, 80’s, MTV, the very best of times!!!!!!👍👍
Great song! Still holds up today.
If there is one song I could listen for the rest of my life, this is it
It’s time for them to be inducted into the rock & roll hall of fame
This gives me chills, and takes me back to some sweet memories. Loving the new song!!
I really enjoyed listening to them singing that song last night.. They were the good old days.. when there was more love in the world ❤
One of Englands finest exports. A soundtrack to not only my generation, but those that followed. 🎶 Always brilliant. Timeless. 👏👏👍😀
This song was at the top of the charts when I graduated high school!
Love the 80s songs! I was born in 1981. And when i was in high school we call this type of songs the New Wave!
The amazingly epic Carina Round casually doing backup vocals 😍
Don’t forget Lauren Evans, too!🫶
I wore a tears for fears shirt to a puscifer concert. No one got the connection. :(
Carina is very good!
I first saw them live in the 1985 at the gaumont in Southampton and their still going strong and still one of the best bands around 😊😊😊🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
This was the best part of the show! From a time when music was just that great!
Tears for Fears Forever ❤❤❤
Yes! On MY FAVORITE LIST!!
My son's favorite group he played this all the time. For you Christopher 💙
Wow, I grew up in the 80's, and I loved tears for fears. I had theirs albums, loved the songs shout, and everybody wants to rule the world
Im going to see Tears For Fears in a couple of months in Vegas and cannot wait! I'm 40 years old, but have been loving them since I was a teen!
Omg!!!! I soooo love Tears For Fears! ❤❤❤
When I saw this I got off my couch and started Jamming I'm saying, "I'm with you Judges"😂. They definately deserve to be in the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame they deserve it.
One of those songs you’ll always remember and never get tired of. They still sound so very great!!!!❤❤❤❤
They are the greatest artists of all time, beautiful performances, the best band on the planet sensational ❤❤❤❤😊
It was a beautiful summer day in Paros, Greece, in 1985. A fisherman in his boat was skimming across the water, blasting the song "Everybody Wants to Rule the World." Every time I hear this song, it transports me back to that beautiful summer in Greece. Life is good.
Their voices are still amazing!! And love the lyrics to the song :)
Wow what a blast from the past. I love this song and they look so great too. Lot of fun watching tonite. From Canada ❤
they look like a old virgin who should retire
I know! I got to see them in concert in Toronto pre-Covid. And they were the opener for Hall and Oates.
Nice throwback with this performance!
Oh wow.. love this .. nice to see them back on stage ❤❤❤
I could play this all over and over and over again❤❤❤❤
