SOWING THE SEEDS OF LOVE

I wish to tell you about the greatest pop song of alltime - Sowing The Seeds Of Love by "Tears For Fears" and what it means to me.

It is a very long song which brought them back into the public eye after a few years out of the pubic eye. It arrived during the acidhouse era and Tears For Fears picked up on the hippy attitude of that time but did it better than the drug taking acidhouse groups such as the Shamen and The Reynolds Girls.

The song reminds me a lot of the Beatles' album Sargeant Peppers' Lonely Hearts Club, but it is much betterer than that ever was.

It is a long song - or an "epic" as they would say. In it, there is a yin and yang.

Let me explain. Kurt Smith sings just the one bit, where his voice is very "feminine" and fey, so he is the yin. Meanwhile, Roland sings the other bits, and he is "masculine", full of passion like a Spanish opera singer or some other sort of Latin lover! His masculinitiy is overwhelming! He sings with such passion that it sounds as if his testicles will explode! Roland is the yang. It is like how an apple and custard tart comprises the tart tasting apple and the smooth tasting custard. That is how yin and yang works!

Please look at the vidio here and you will soon agree with me. Be patient - it is a very long song.
