Listen with No Rock: Tears For Fears

Tears For Fears covering Arcade Fire, anybody? Here you go:

The Fears (or "The Fears" as nobody calls them) explained why they've done this:

"Having appreciated artists like Kanye West, Katy Perry, Kimbra, Nas, Gary Jules/Michael Andrews, Adam Lambert & Dizzee Rascal covering & sampling our songs over the past years, we agreed that some reciprocal cross-generational love was in order. We decided to give Arcade Fire a twist of TFF. Enjoy."

You've got to tip your hat to Curt and Roland - only they could over-intellectualise 'doing a cover version'.
