Music Memory: Tears for Fears, "Everybody Wants to Rule the World"
November 16, 2013
Is your music library—like mine—full of memories? Break ups, road trips, vacations, first kisses, people in your life who have come and gone?
Each week, I get at least one great email from a Teenage Kicks listener about a memory that's associated with a particular song. I want to start sharing those memories on air, so this week on Teenage Kicks, I'm launching what I hope will be a regular feature: Music Memory.
Is there a song from the Teenage Kicks era that brings up a specific memory for you? Do you have a great story connected to a song? Share it with me! I might play your song and share your story on-air.

Jake is a writer, musician (he plays drums in local band Pennyroyal) and instructor at McNally Smith College of Music. Here's what he has to say about a track from our band of the week, Tears for Fears:
Share your Music Memory with me here, and tune in to Teenage Kicks every Saturday from 8 to 10 a.m.
