This is another we did. But, our twist on it was to make it a 2 guitar song and and have no keyboards.
I still do an 12 string solo version of it.
My wife and I both have this song in our top 5 favorite songs ever.

... to have music driving it. I evolved but I held onto music as an instrument of political and social change. I've been revisiting the music of my life.

My dreams have background music. I can never recognize it oe remember it, but it's always there.

Everybody wants to rule the world was a song that really spoke to me and for me the song has everything going for it, including great production.

I had trouble with a lot of eighties and nineties music because I tried to stay true to guitar driven rock, but I soon realized that there was an awful lot of great musicians and song writers who could make music that didn't need 11 on their volume controls to make interesting music that stands strong.
