The morning after the Chicago stop of their U.S tour in support of the excellent new The Brutalist Bricks, Ted Leo And The Pharmacists stopped by The A.V. Club to grace us with a cover of Tears For Fears' 1985 smash hit, "Everybody Wants To Rule The World." The bees in the background made their stage debut at the band's album-release show, and one of them was adopted by The A.V. Club.

I love Ted Leo (Shake the Sheets is one of my favorite albums of all-time), and I've always loved Tears for Fears. Namely this song. It's fan-fucking-tastic, and so is this cover. Simply the best I've seen on The A.V. Club. Maybe next to Justin Townes Earle's cover of Atlantic City. Either way, this is just too good not to love with everything in me.
