I've always been a big fan of Tears for Fears, this song especially, but it's one of those that's so familiar you listen without really hearing. Today it came on while I was driving and I felt like it was 1989 and I was hearing it for the first time all over again. Do you know what it's about? Have you ever paid attention to the lyrics?? Well if you haven't...please do now...

Oh it gets better. He has his own captivating youtube channel!!!! It's video after video of just him in his backyard showing off his opulent mane in various styles. Rupunzel does get creative with his location choices at one point and moves inside for some hair posing on the couch. An absolute dream, this one.
Keep an eye out for this girl. Her name is Lykke Li and she's from Sweden, which is pretty much where the best music seems to come from these days. She's one of those myspace musician success stories and her album is called "Little Bit."
You know...I'm actually not mad at Lady GaGa. As far as I've heard she hasn't said anything that annoying to the press (yet). She can actually sing, I covet her fake Donatella Versace hair, and speaking as an adult it's nice to have a current pop artist that's not 15.
Here's a little twist on a song you've heard 3 billion times..
ps.. Pokerface is the jam.
***04/09 UPDATE: I'm standing behind this post! I'm still not mad at Lady GaGa and I don't care what you think. BUT... I'm adding this video to help back me up. I'm telling you... The girl's got skills...
