Essential Music: “Women In Chains” by Tears for Fears featuring Oleta Adams
This song popped on one of my playlists and it’s one of those songs that makes me pause and reflect on the beauty of it.
Enchantingly soothing vocals, velvety melodies and a hard drum that only Phil Collins could do. “Tears for Fears just wanted me to do that big drum thing from ‘In the Air Tonight‘…” Collins recalled. “We want you to come in here in a big way.”
