CRAn interesting fact is that the song was a last-minute addition to the Songs from the Big Chair album. Roland Orzabal originally thought the track was “too simple” and almost scrapped it. It was also originally titled “Everybody Wants to Go to War,” reflecting the Cold War tensions of 1985.
By pivoting to “Rule The World,” Tears For Fears created a universal proverb about ambition, corruption, and the “freedom and the pleasure” we all chase.
The realization that history is a cycle, but the music is the thread that holds it together.
