how your email finds me
There's a room where the light won't find you. Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down. When they do I'll be right behind you. So glad we've almost made it, so sad they had to fade it. Everybody wants to rule the world.
Today is that day!! Make sure you wish Roland a Happy Birthday today! Have the most superb day, RO!!
Duran Duran - Come Undone
------
Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin I've been waiting for you Signed with a home tattoo Happy birthday to you was created for you
Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?
Ah, it'll take a little time Might take a little crime to come undone Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry
Who do you need? Who do you love? When you come undone
Who do you need? Who do you love? When you come undone
Words, playing me deja vu Like a radio tune, I swear I've heard before Chill, is it something real? Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers
Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?
Lost, in a snow filled sky We'll make it alright to come undone Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry
Who do you need? Who do you love? When you come undone
Who do you need? Who do you love? When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)
Who do you need? Who do you love? When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)
Who do you need? Who do you love? (Can't ever keep from falling apart) Who do you love? When you come undone
Happy birthday Roland Orzabal

Psychological analysis of Tears for Fears’s song: “Goodnight Song”:Â
(Requested by @pauls-mccharmly)
It’s the final song of the album, which means it’s the last feeling that Roland is living in the present. In that year. Or part of it. Metaphorically he is on stage (in the video he is seen singing and playing his guitar along with his bandmates). Roland is like in the point of his iceberg. (Like Sigmund Freud’s theory of the “ICEBERG”). Here is talking how time pass by, feeling so weak, so lonely, with eventually no friends to count on. The only one who helped him was gone. And that was a fact that Roland had to accept. He remembers the songs he previously sang along with Curt, such as the albums: “The Hurting”, “Songs From the Big Chair” and “The Seeds of Love”. That no matter what, those songs will remain forever in people’s minds along with his own mind through the years. Roland feels so tired of playing over and over the same stuff. He wants to be different, not to feel pain, sadness, grief and sorrow. Maybe he is just giving up. He also knows that he’s not the same young boy as he was before. That he has changed in every single way. His voice is getting more deeper, more softer, more sad. He is so depressed that his voice is ageing. That all of the sounds are so playing like nothing can happen. This is like a farewell song from Roland. He blames the crowd (which are the press and maybe some other people) for talking nonsenses about him. Maybe they are blaming him for Curt’s departure. He just want some honesty. He wants the people to only think or to hold his good moments and the rest to let go, like dust. I think he’s talking to himself. Like he is telling: “Okay Roland. Get out of your comfortable safe zone and be a real man! Stop crying about the past. Just let it go.” He also thinks that without pain, nothing can change. And he just keeps blaming everyone else of the mistakes he made. But deep inside he feels so lonely. But at the same time, he’s in peace. So, in the video he is just singing for himself, for the sake of his own soul. And at the same time he's smiling, because he knows that eventually all of that pain will fade away.
Roland Orzabal in 1995 is a sexy sassy man.
