Music Video of the Day: Change by Tears For Fears (1983, directed by Clive Richardson)


It’s not really about much. It’s just one of those cheap pop lyrics.

— Roland Orzabal

Today’s song of the day is especially appropriate for me because my WordPress account has been updated and, after five years of using classic editor, I’m just now figuring out how to use block editor. I can tell already that it’s going to take me a while to get the hang of this but I think I’m going to like it eventually. Change can be difficult but it can still be a good thing.

Change was Tears For Fears’s fourth released single and it was their second big hit, after Mad World. It was also their first song to chart in the United States. This video was directed by Clive Richardson, who was also responsible for several early Depeche Mode videos.

Enjoy!
