THE SONG:

“Everybody Wants to Rule the World” is a song by English rock band Tears for Fears from their second studio album “Songs From the Big Chair”. It was written by Roland Orzabal, Ian Stanley and Chris Hughes. The song was a "last-minute" addition during recording sessions of “Songs From the Big Chair”. The decision to include the song in the album came after Orzabal played two chords on his acoustic guitar for Hughes. Along with “Shout”, “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” is one of Tears for Fears' signature songs. “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” was the first #1 hit for Tears for Fears. “Shout” went to #1 two months later. Because “Shout” was the group’s first single everywhere but the USA, Tears for Fears thought it should also be their first release in the USA, but the label insisted “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” was better suited for their US Debut. The song has been covered extensively since its release, most notably by New Zealand singer Lorde for the soundtrack to the movie adaptation of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire  Link to OfficialVideo
