fun facts

"Everybody Wants to Rule The World" almost wasn't recorded. Tears For Fears didn't like the song and thought no one would like the beat

Buck Dharma said about "Don't Fear The Reaper": "It’s not about suicide, it’s about accepting death rather than bringing it about yourself, I felt that I had just achieved some kind of resonance with the psychology of people when I came up with that, I was actually kind of appalled when I first realized that some people were seeing it as an advertisement for suicide or something that was not my intention at all. It is, like, not to be afraid of it (as opposed to actively bring it about). It’s basically a love song where the love transcends the actual physical existence of the partners"

"Omg Taylor Swift is such an incredible lyricist!" Nothing she has ever written has had more impact than any given line from Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult.

we need a season 2 of dead boy detectives to, if nothing else, get Don't Fear the Reaper on the soundtrack. its a need, not a want.
