Un Poquito Moss - #319: "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears

from Please No Moss · host Pat and Derek

Tears for Fears' song “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” is a catchy ‘80s anthem that taps into themes of power, control, and the state of the world. With its dreamy synths and surprisingly deep lyrics, it’s a song that’s stuck with listeners for decades. But does it really deserve a spot on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 greatest songs of all time? In this episode, we break down what makes it so memorable—and whether it truly earns that iconic status.Follow Please No Moss on Instagram!Cover Art by Katherine EvansTheme Music: "Tagalong" by Blaise Gratton
