Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants To Rule The World (IMY2 Cover)

[@williamlarson9091]

Beautiful hell, she has an amazing voice. And the band behind her is amazing. Great job!!!!!!!

[@Stars333Bright]

The clarity of her voice, the beautiful delivery of the musical notes, the timing, its always a joy to hear another song done by IMY2. Picks up my whole day. And by the way, I'm not Stars333Bright. Its Paul Backus... and I love their music. The camera work is also exceptional.

[@roxtar38]

I didn't appreciate this song or Tears for Fears when I was in college. Now that I'm MUCH older and maybe wiser, I do...and this was a fantastic version. A dash of sultry is a good thing.

[@kendoi628]

Same here, thought it just another pop song...too young and immature to appreciate the lyrics. I'm also tuning into the sultry......

[@JohnOlavOttesen]

Well, it was always a great song and this rendition is great

[@cspace1234nz]

...I loved it from the moment it came out back in the early 80s and every time I hear it there are a lot of cool memories come flooding back. It has aged very well.

[@RiceDaddy07]

I was in Art School in the late 90's when I first heard this song. One of my colleagues made a Pinky and Brain video montage with this as the background. I will never forget it.

[@Charliemmafan]

I always liked this song myself!

[@roadking99jokerst60]

I can't add anything new to everyone's praise and appreciation of the lovely lady with her tremendous talent along with the superb musicians behind her. Hoping for a compliation CD.

[@nvillajuan]

One of those songs that make you believe time travel is possible. Amazing cover, really brought me back!

[@richteritwan]

It is extremely rare to capture the mood and spirit of an original, let alone give that original a new flavor that is just as good, if not better. Love it. Absolutely well met.

[@pglick123]

Everything you touch turns to gold!

[@joedaly5710]

First time ever chiming in: you three and your sound engineer absolutely crush every song you touch. I have been listening to your music for over a year now and can only encourage you to keep enjoying your path of creativity and style.

[@IMY2music]

Thank you so much for the support 🥺

[@goodtoGoNow1956]

I am glad you mention the sound engineer. You are right and that is easy to forget.

[@MariaElena51185]

@@IMY2music I agree totally. Pls show the drummer too. I’m blown away by this band 🎉

[@SirPulga]

TFT is one of the greatest 80's bands. Not just for the large amount of Hit's, but for the quality of composition, harmony, lyrics... Orzabal and Curt Smith are very talented artists who made some of the best soundtracks in many people's lives. Great tribute you did guys!

[@hvanmegen]

ahem.. cough-TFF-cough..

I make your words my greetings from Brazil

[@BlanchardEA]

OMG ... being raised in the generation of this song ... fantastic! Well done Annalise! Well done IMY2!

[@captcorajus]

I was in the air force. I was 20 years old, 1985, stationed at Dover Air Force Base De. I remember cruising down Rt 13, going to Ocean City Md, top down on my VW Rabbit, sunglasses, jamming to this song, and not a care in the world. not long after I would meet my wife AT Ocean City. 😀 Great cover!

Beautiful job. You guys were great in Vegas. You guys sounded this good live. I would suggest everyone see and dance to IMY2 live.

[@IMY2music]

Awww thank you!! Glad you were able to experience IMY2 live, it’s our favorite part of this career by far!!

[@mikeceli]

WHEN were they in Vegas! I would have gone had I known,

[@gregallenplumb]

@@mikeceli we were down there for the a convention and one of the sponsors apparently hired them for party at TI.

[@ponderosa3928]

Excellent song selection, wonderful performance. Looking forward to seeing IMY2 live someday!

[@TGriffiths-ve6nw]

Usually covers of songs from my past do not interest me, but you guys have a unique talent to do them all justice and even better. I think a lot of it is that you keep it clean, clear and uncluttered. Quality versus adding just for the sake of it

[@chastoms]

Classic Tears For Fears. Curt Smith should be impressed and proud of you, Annalise. You're gorgeous as ever, and every word is crystal clear. Cal and Mike have nailed the music again!

[@philipbarton6388]

This is the most incredible cover band ever. Know they're younger than plenty of their prolific catalog on KZbin I'm 56 and they hit everything dead on or better, her pipes and their instruments abilities only 3 KZbin channels I subscribe to and they own most my time good on IMY2 and thank you

[@philipbarton6388]

[@jroot1279]

Wow, what a composition. The videography is fantastic.

[@logiciskindness]

Love it! Nice work! Beautiful performance. nice riffing @2:35 Annalise - you seem to always have the perfect emotion for the song. Nailed it again. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world!

[@davidgilpin5200]

Wow... Is there ANYTHING that IMY2 cannot cover? Nope. Cal gets to drag out the classic synth sounds, channeling that old Linn Drum, Oberheim, and DX7 ambience. Michael nails the solos on lead guitar - you do realize how incredibly talented he is, right? And Annalise with that gifted voice. Beautifully shot, well produced. Please tour - and come to Texas or Oklahoma!

[@pinobluevogel6458]

Or Europe.

Thank you so much for the love and support!! Would definitely love to tour in your area in the future! 🖤

Thank 🙏 you. Annalise, Mike and Cal you nailed it again. I grew up listening to the music of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. I visited many concerts. I bought the album "The Hurting" from my saved pocket money. Very well done. What you need are good producers. My tip, please have a knock on Daryl Hall's door! Do you want me to do it? All the best.

Not underated. In the 80s it was a really big song and also today it is high in the charts and used for manny mainstream purposes its beloved by young and old. This song was in my grocery store and a lot of people were singing along.

[@charlesdodimead5658]

@@valhalla7567 I play music and it's been my observation people will sing along and nod their heads and never really see the beauty in a song. I'm glad you appreciate this song, truly and deeply. This song is absolutely brilliant. And I'm afraid we will never ever get music like this again. idk maybe music just hits me differently? By the way can we just take a minute and give credit to IMY2 for absolutely slaying everything they touch.

[@richardpblaikie]

[@bradley8368]

So, I’m in my 60s and I stumbled across your content (I don’t stumble a lot, I’m not that feeble yet), and, to be honest, it was pretty much a matter of really enjoying the cover versions of songs by bands that I never listened to, but liked the songs, and you did a great version of them. Then I found some songs that you covered by artists that I did listen to, and found that I liked them too (some more than the original). Then I heard your original music. I don’t really know how the music industry works today (as opposed to how it was years ago), but how you guys are not superstars is beyond me.

[@nickrobinson8339]

Brilliant cover by everyone involved. Love to see you all cover Space Age Love Song or I Ran by A Flock of Seagulls or Reel around the Fountain by the Smiths.
