- Tears For Fears' classic "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is featured on the soundtrack of pretty much any movie set in the 1980s (and even makes an appearance in The Hunger Games courtesy of a Lorde cover.) And for good reason: the synth-centric tune received extreme attention and accolades in vital outlets like MTV and Billboard when it hit the airwaves. Even though it's been over 30 years since its initial release, we had to get William Kurk in the studio to break it down in our latest episode of #SynthSounds, because everybody wants to...learn this synth part.

the drums sounds like "the way you make me feel " from MJ
He‘s like the Bob Ross of music
galloping horse basslines, synth textures as sunshine/moonlight ... perfect imagery, an insight to how musicians really "see" music
Wow, usually the sound is pretty accurate, here the synth sounds more like a computer game than the original.
Found an old Keyboard Magazine article on some of the sounds for this song. The guitar line was both real guitar, layered with 2 DX7 guitar sounds and a Prophet T8. The synth bass line was PPG bass with DX7
Dude, "The Way You Make Me Feel" by the late Michael Jackson was some absolute justified chop-shop theft, with a bit of Motown soul tho...I can never hear this song without his smashing through.
This guy has the greatest job in the world, and he deserves it.
I miss these synth sounds breakdowns. Please return mr. Kirk.
The Members Only jacket was a nice touch
Gated reverb!!! Thy name is 80s
I believe this dude. He looks like the greatest 80's musician to ever 80's.
im a guitar player, and William Kirk tought me all my favorite sounds were actually synth, now I play drums piano and synths as well as strings. this channel and reverb in general has really helped me become a true musician and to understand what I was hearing and loving about music, and I got my favorite guitar for a steal on Reverb.

I am loving this dude, his haircut, his shirt, and his engineering/keyboard ability! AWESOME feature, we need more from this guy
The fact that you can replicate the original songs this closely is neat in itself. I love videos like this because the original synths these songs were created on are legends. For the time they were very advanced and crazy expensive.
This guy is brilliant, you all are really onto something with this series. 👏🏻
I have said this a 1000 times this song defines that decade. Excellent video on a great song.
😆I just realized you're wearing a classic Members Only jacket from the 80s! NICE TOUCH!!!
I'm a guitar player and know nothing about keyboards or synths - but man I love these videos. This guy really makes me want to learn more about them - as well as the songs he's playing. And a lot of these 80's songs I used to dislike with a passion. I was born in 78, so these were songs I heard as a little kid - and when I got older during the 90's they held such a nostalgic and slightly sad quality about them - so I avoided them. But now I realize how freaking good they are - it's like discovering a whole decade of good music to listen to. And this song in particular is one of my favorites. I still find them a little melancholy though.
Love this series. Please do an episode on TALK TALK! One of the best groups of 80s by far.
