Harry Styles Covers Tears For Fears' 'Everybody Wants To Rule The World' in BBC Live Lounge
Harry Styles, the popular pop star, recently released his highly anticipated album "Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally." Fans were eager for the album to be more captivating than it turned out to be. Despite this, Styles is currently engaged in a promotional frenzy. He has made appearances at the BRITs, performed a live-streamed show in Manchester on Netflix, and made a cameo on Ryan Gosling's SNL monologue. Additionally, he will be hosting and performing as the musical guest on SNL this weekend. Styles recently covered Tears For Fears' hit song "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" in the BBC Live Lounge.
Styles has a history of showcasing his musical preferences through cover songs in the Live Lounge. Previous covers include tracks by Fleetwood Mac, Wet Leg, Lizzo, and Paul McCartney. In his latest Live Lounge session, Styles tackled Tears For Fears' iconic 1985 track "Everybody Wants To Rule The World," a song that has been featured in numerous soundtracks and media. While Styles' rendition of the song does not introduce any groundbreaking ideas, he delivers a solid performance with added horn elements towards the end. During the Live Lounge session, Styles and his band also performed tracks from "Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally" including "Aperture," "American Girls," "Dance No More," and "Carla's Song."
"Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally" is now available on Erskine/Columbia. Fans can watch Styles' cover of "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" and the original Tears For Fears video. Additionally, they can enjoy other performances by Styles from the Live Lounge session.
