Tears for Fears is a duo formed in 1981 in Bath, England by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. They've sold over 30 million albums, starting with their first, The Hurting, which went to number one in the UK. But it was their second album, Songs from the Big Chair, that made them international stars. It came out in 1985, and had huge singles like “Shout” and "Head Over Heels.” But their biggest hit is “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” It won Best Single at the BRIT Awards in 1986, and it's been streamed over 2 billion times. So I talked to the two of them about how they, along with their producer Chris Hughes and keyboard player Ian Stanley, made a song that would help define the sound of the 80s.For more, visit songexploder.net/tears-for-fears.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 29ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1977 bhí na Aontachtaí ag iarradh labhair leis na dílsigh chun stop a chur agus aistarraing na hoibrithe ar feadh cúpla lá. I 1994 bhí an banc taisce chun moladh a thabhairt chuig an rialtas go mbeadh an bhainc náisiúnta sa tír ábalta cheannaigh ceannas den acmhainn stát. I 1983 chuir Joseph Boland cheist faoi chruthú fostaíochta de bharr go raibh níos mó ná 105 míle duine sa chontae. I 1994 bhí an t-ospidéal in Inis ar droch liosta ó saineolaí go raibh na daoine ag obair ann buartha fúthú féin níos mó ná an caighdeán den chúram de na daoine san ospidéal. Sin Spandau Ballet le True – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1983. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2001 chuir Rod Stewart cheist chun a móideanna pósta a athnuachan. Dúirt sé go raibh sé ag teastáil de bharr go raibh na ngealltanas a rinne sé níos mó ná 600 bhliain d'aois agus nach raibh siad ag shroich 35 bhliain d'aois. I 2007 shroich The Arctic Monkeys uimhir a haon lena halbam Favourite Worst Nightmare. Bhí siad ar barr na cairteacha ar feadh trí sheachtain. Bhí an t-albam ainmnithe don Mercury Prize an bhliain sin agus bhuaigh siad an t-albam is mó ag The Brit Awards an bhliain tar éis. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Jerry Seinfeld I Meiriceá I 1954 agus rugadh aisteoir Daniel Day-Lewis sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1957 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 29th of April, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1977: the united unionist action council called on the norths loyalist workers for a total stoppage and withdrawal of labour from mid night on monday next. 1994: the trustee savings bank was expected to submit formal proposals to government that the national irish bank should be allowed to buy control of the state asset 1983: the chairman of clare co.council development team mr joseph boland this week called for urgent action and new thinking on job creation in clare in view of the population of nearly 105,000 projected for the country. 1994: ennis general hospital was put very firmly on the sick list by a group of outside experts who have concluded that it is more concerned with staff and their problems than with the improvement of overall standards of patients care. That was Spandau Ballet with True – the biggest song on this day in 1983. Onto music news on this day In 2001 Rod Stewart asked for a change in wedding vows bringing them up to-date and to be treated like a dog licence. Stewart said 'a change is needed because they've been in existence for 600 years when people used to live until they were only 35'. 2007 Arctic Monkeys started a three-week run at No.1 on the UK album chart with their second album Favourite Worst Nightmare. The album was nominated for the 2007 Mercury Prize and won Best British Album at the 2008 Brit Awards. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld was born in 1954 and actor Daniel Day-Lewis was born on this day in the UK in 1957 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Beloved Britpop band Pulp have released their first new music in almost a quarter of a century, the single 'Spike Island'.Their talismanic frontman Jarvis Cocker has always been the band's star turn, with his second-hand 70s style, mesmeric stage presence and biting lyrics.Following some difficult early years in his hometown of Sheffield, Cocker formed the band in 1978, but had to wait over a decade before breaking through on the crest of the Britpop wave in the mid-90s. The band released some of the most memorable and well-loved songs of the era, including 'Common People' and 'Disco 2000'.But his very public bottom-baring protest against Michael Jackson at the 1996 Brit Awards thrust him even more firmly into the public's imagination, and the fame he had craved for so long quickly took a darker turn.Mark Coles speaks to some of the most important people in Jarvis's story, including current and former bandmates Candida Doyle, Nick Banks and Richard Hawley, and his sister Saskia.Presenter: Mark Coles Producer: Ben Cooper Researcher: Chloe Scannapieco Editor: Max Deveson Sound: Gareth Jones Production Coordinator: Maria Ogundele

It's the Dish Easter special and Nick and Angela are joined for dinner by JADE. JADE is a singer/songwriter already making her mark as a solo artist. Born and raised in South Shields, JADE was part of the chart conquering girl group Little Mix, who were formed on The X Factor in 2011. Little Mix went on to release six studio albums and won a BRIT Award for British Group in 2021 before going on hiatus. JADE has since released her debut single Angel of my Dreams, followed up by the single FUFN, the video for which stars our very own Nick Grimshaw.  JADE's had a busy start to 2025 with a massive night at this year's BRIT Awards, where she landed a huge performance and won her first BRIT as a solo artist. Alongside the release of her debut album, JADE is also due to perform at Glastonbury, with Nick and Angela hoping to be on the front row.  She is also a huge fan of roasts. And we mean huge.  Which is lucky because Angela has prepared two recipes by Paul Gamble; Roast lamb with boulangère-style vegetables and Chargrilled green vegetables with wild garlic salsa verde. This is accompanied by El Rayo Olarra Rioja Crianza. The conversation begins with a mojito, a cocktail making its Dish debut.  This episode is the perfect Easter lunch, with JADE bringing her passion for roasts, gravy and potatoes while looking back at her first steps as a solo artist - including that big night at the BRITs.  Side notes;  Sadly the pistachio Easter egg mentioned by Nick was so popular it sold out! But we're confident you will find an equally moreish alternative in store or online.  We are doing a live episode in Sheffield! On Friday 4th July, Dish will be at The Crucible Theatre at Crossed Wires Festival. Nick and Angela will be joined by a special guest for their second ever live show. Tickets are available now at crossedwires.live. You can now watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish We can't all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help.  Send your dilemmas to dish@waitrose.co.uk and she'll try to answer them in a future episode. Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions.

Rising to fame at the age of 20, Kate Nash soon became a staple of the British music scene in the late 2000s. Her first album, Made of Bricks, reached number one in the UK and stayed in the UK charts for more than forty consecutive weeks and she's won a Brit Award. But she's spoken openly about not being able to afford to tour and choosing to subsidise her income by selling images of her body on OnlyFans. Kate's currently in the middle of a UK tour for her latest album, 9 Sad Symphonies, and is playing the O2 Kentish Town Forum on 9 April. She joins Nuala McGovern to discuss her career and the music industry.Sarah Brown and her husband Gordon, the former prime minister set up the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory in 2004, following the death of their daughter Jennifer who was born seven weeks early. For the past decade, the laboratory has been leading vital research into premature birth – including a world-first study following 400 babies, both premature and full-term, from birth to adulthood. Sarah tells Nuala about the research and what they've found about preterm birth. Once the Deed is Done is the fifth novel from the German-British author Rachel Seiffert. It covers the immediate aftermath of the end of WW2 and the fall of Nazi Germany. The book focuses on a group of displaced people – it's estimated that globally there were between 40-60 million people displaced by the war. Rachel describes why she wanted to write about this often forgotten time in history, reflecting on the cruelty inflicted from above and the choices her characters make. BBC2's Saving Lives in Cardiff is back on our screens from tonight. Based in the largest hospital in Wales, University Hospital in Cardiff, the series highlights the weight of difficult, sometimes life and death decisions surgeons make about who to prioritise next. The first episode follows Dr Indu Deglurkar, a cardiac surgeon, one of only 19 women in this role in the UK. She joins Nuala to discuss the pressures and joys of her job.Presented by Nuala McGovern Producer: Louise Corley

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 28ú lá de mí an Mhárta, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1970 bhí daoine ag iarradh millín drúchtíní a aistarraing ó shiopaí I mBaile Átha Cliath nuair a fuair siad amach go raibh slugtox ann go mídhleathach. I 1980 dúradh nach mbeadh luach le druga sa scéim cárta leighis saor in aisce má úsáideann daoine é do thréimhse fada. I 1980 bhí an ráta don cheantar uirbeach in Inis 9 bpunt agus 59 pingin, d'ardaigh sé 87 pingin ón bhliain roimhe. I 1997 ní raibh na daoine a raibh ina chónaí sa chontae sásta de bharr gur rinne an tAire Timpeallachta cinneadh chun fóirdheontas a dhéanamh ar an tsoláthair uisce. Sin the Spice Girls le Who Do You Think You Are – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1997. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1970 tháinig Simon and Garfunkle amach le hamhrán darbh ainm Bridge Over Troubled Water agus shroich sé uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain. I 2018 chuaigh an dara halbam a tháinig amach ó George Ezra chuig uimhir a haon. Bhí sé an t-albam a dhíol den chuid is mó an bhliain sin agus bhí sé ainmnithe do albam den bhliain do na BRIT Awards. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Vince Vaughan I Meiriceá I 1970 agus rugadh amránaí Lady Gaga I Nua Eabhrac ar an lá seo I 1986 agus seo chuid de a amhrán.

Early Life & Musical BeginningsGary Kempwas born in London, where his passion for music and performing arts took shape early. Raised in Islington, he attended Anna Scher's acting school alongside his younger brother Martin Kemp. Though acting was an early focus, music soon became his true calling. Influenced by the glam rock and punk movements of the ‘70s, Kemp sought to create a new sound, ultimately leading to the formation ofSpandau Ballet in 1978.As theprimary songwriter for Spandau Ballet, Gary Kemp was responsible for some of the most iconic hits of the1980s New Romantic era. The band first gained attention in the London club scene, aligning with the movement's stylish aesthetic. Their breakthrough came with"To Cut a Long Story Short", followed by global hits like"True","Gold", and"Through the Barricades." Kemp's songwriting, blendingsoulful melodies, romantic lyricism, and synth-driven soundscapes, defined an era.Spandau Ballet's success was meteoric, earningmulti-platinum sales, Brit Awards, and worldwide tours. However, internal tensions led to their breakup in 1990. A high-profile legal battle followed, as bandmates attempted to claim songwriting royalties, but the court ruled in Kemp's favor as the sole composer.Following Spandau Ballet's split, Gary Kemp transitioned into acting. His most notable role wasplaying Reggie Kray alongside his brother Martin in the acclaimed gangster biopicThe Krays (1990). He also appeared in major films such asThe Bodyguard (1992) with Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston andKilling Zoe (1993).Though acting remained part of his career, Kemp never abandoned music. He continued writing and exploring new creative directions.In 1995, Gary Kemp released his debut solo album,Little Bruises, showcasing a more introspective, acoustic-driven sound. Though it didn't match Spandau Ballet's chart-topping success, it revealed a different side of his artistry.After years of silence on the solo front, Kemp made a powerful return withINSOLO (2021), an ambitious and deeply personal album exploring themes of fame, identity, and self-reflection. Tracks like"Ahead of the Game" and"Too Much" reaffirmed hissongwriting prowess and sophisticated musicianship.In2025, Kemp releasedFinal Destination, his most introspective work yet. The album reflects on hisstruggles with mental health, the impact of the pandemic, and personal loss. Having suffered fromanxiety and depression post-pandemic, Kemp has openly discussed how the experience reshaped his perspective on life, revealing that he now avoids watching the news to protect his well-being.Despite their past conflicts, Spandau Ballet reunited forsuccessful tours in 2009 and 2015, thrilling fans worldwide. However, tensions resurfaced, and lead singerTony Hadley permanently exited in 2017, leaving the band in limbo. While Spandau Ballet's future remains uncertain, Kemp continues tohonor their legacy through hislive performances, storytelling, and collaborations.Beyond performing, Gary Kemp is arespected voice in music history. He co-hosts the popular podcastRockonteurs with Pink Floyd's Guy Pratt, where they interview rock and pop legends, discussing the untold stories of the music industry. His deep knowledge and engaging storytelling make him an authority in British pop culture.FromSpandau Ballet's chart-topping success to hisacting career, solo albums, and podcasting ventures, Gary Kemp remains a truemusic icon. His ability toevolve, adapt, and create timeless music has solidified his legacy as one of Britain's most influential songwriters. WithFinal Destination, Kemp proves that hiscreative journey is far from over.#garykemp #SpandauBallet #80sMusic#NewRomantic #BritishPop #Rockonteurs#TrueSpandauBallet #GoldSpandauBallet#SynthPop #80sIcons #MusicLegends#ClassicHits #PopRock #MusicPodcast #BehindTheMusic

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/Analytic In this segment, Analytic Dreamz examines Central Cee's latest track, "5 Star (Aitch Diss)," released as a direct response to the 2023 BRIT Awards where Aitch was awarded over Central Cee. Born in Ladbroke Grove, Central Cee, or Oakley Neil H T Caesar-Su, has made a name with his blend of UK drill, hip-hop, and grime, reaching critical acclaim with projects like "Wild West" and "23." This diss track has stirred the UK rap scene, highlighting themes of authenticity and competition. Following its release, Aitch hit back with "A Guy Called?" on January 24, 2025, escalating the feud by questioning Central Cee's writing and motives. Central Cee's response was notably succinct, replying with just "fair enough" and laughing emojis on Instagram, leaving fans anticipating further exchanges. The track peaked in the lower Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart, with a noticeable streaming surge on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, though it didn't make waves on the Billboard charts. Its music video quickly accumulated views on YouTube, and social media platforms buzzed with debates over the lyrical content and implications for UK rap culture. While physical sales were limited, the digital engagement was robust, reflecting current music consumption trends. Analytic Dreamz also discusses the potential impact of this feud on both artists' careers, especially with the upcoming 2025 BRIT Awards where Central Cee is nominated again, possibly reigniting their rivalry. This segment offers an in-depth look at how this single track has not only added to the narrative of UK rap beef but also shaped the discourse around loyalty, authenticity, and the competitive spirit in contemporary music.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Robbie Williams is a hugely popular singer and songwriter. He set a record by winning 18 Brit Awards and has two Grammy nominations to his name. Williams has churned out six of the top 100 best-selling albums in British history, amassed an audience of 375,000 fans over three nights performing at Knebworth, setting a record that's yet to be surpassed, and has sold 85 million album worldwide. The list of achievements and accolades goes on and on, but he insists, “I didn't derive any joy from all the success that I had.” However, at 50, things have changed. “I am experiencing joy and I'm experiencing happiness. I'm also experiencing gratitude, a great deal of gratitude where I didn't have gratitude before. So, these are my golden years.”Williams has been enjoying a different kind of spotlight since August 2024. That's when his film, Better Man, premiered at the 51st Telluride Film Festival before moving on to the Toronto International Film Festival, Fantastic Fest, and more. Based on Williams' true rise, fall and resurgence, Better Man chronicles his journey from finding fame as a teenager with the boy band Take That, to parting ways with the group and mounting a solo career. While Williams did find great success on that path, it was one that also came with a significant number of struggles that, as Williams himself lists, included, “childhood trauma, fame too early, mental illness, addiction, [and] rehab.” Better Man shows how he powered through those challenges as Williams sees himself, as a “performing monkey.”With Better Man gearing up to celebrate its nationwide release on January 10th, Williams took the time to join me for a Collider Forces conversation to revisit the early days of his music career, explain how his definition of having “it” has evolved over the years, discuss why he trusted Gracey with his story, and so much more.
