Today’s music video of the day comes to us from Tears For Fears and their seventh studio album, The Tipping Point.
This song is a mix of melancholy emotions and hope for a better future. As the video shows it can be easy to feel like you’re drowning in today’s world, with its constant flood of negativity and disturbing imagery. As I sit here typing this post, I still can’t go on twitter without immediately being confronted by a video of a woman being burned alive in a New York subway car. There’s only so much of that ugliness that one can see before it becomes tempting to assume that the human race is defined solely by the worst members of it. The majority of the people that I know, though, are kind, loving, and tolerant. And if they see you drowning, they’ll be the first to reach out and pull you to safety.
In other words, I think we’re going to be okay.
Enjoy!
