Everybody Wants To Rule The World - Ted Yoder cover Tears for Fears video free download

August 24, 2016 I went to my backyard to record a quick version of Everybody Wants to Rule the World by Tears for Fears. With storms rolling in, internet not working that well, and only my second time playing the song all the way through, we captures something special. This will be on my upcoming CD spring of 2017.

Critically acclaimed musician Ted Yoder is widely considered “the Bela Fleck of the hammered dulcimer." Ted is a National Hammered Dulcimer champion. He’s released five beloved and critically acclaimed solo albums, and become a master educator of the instrument.

Ted has been profiled in the Kearney Hub, Huffington Post, and on NPR’s All Things Considered show, among many other features, profiles, and reviews in regional and

national tastemaking outlets. On Wednesday, August 24, 2016, Ted became something of a household name when a Facebook Live video of him from his Live From The Orchard series playing Tears For Fears’ “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” went viral. The video rocketed up to 53 million views in four days.

Lyrics:

Welcome to your life there's no turning back

Even while we sleep we will find

You acting on your best behavior

Turn your back on mother nature

Ev'rybody wants to rule the world

It's my own desire, it's my own remorse

Help me to decide, help me make the most

Of freedom and of pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever

Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you

Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down

When they do, I'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it

So sad they had to fade it

Ev'rybody wants to rule the world

I can't stand this indecision

Married with a lack of vision

Everybody wants to rule the world

Say that you'll never, never, never, need it

One headline, why believe it?

Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure

Nothing ever lasts forever

Everybody wants to rule the world
