Sowing the Seeds of Love

encyclopedia result
 

"Sowing the Seeds of Love" is a 1989 song by the British group Tears for Fears. It was released as the first single from their 1989 album The Seeds of Love, and was a worldwide hit, reaching the top five in the UK, Canada (where it was #1), Ireland, Italy, New Zealand and the Netherlands. In the US, it peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100, while topping the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The single also reached the Top 20 in numerous other countries.

Background

The song is a pastiche of The Beatles and was produced in a style reminiscent of their late 1960s output. The song was written in 1987, during the week of the 1987 General Election in the UK, in which Conservative leader Margaret Thatcher won her third term in office. The election prompted Roland Orzabal who comes from a working class background to take an interest in politics and socialism, and at the time of its release, he considered this to be the most overtly political song that Tears For Fears had ever recorded. The song's title was inspired by a radio programme that Orzabal had heard at the time about a man who was putting together a collection of traditional English folk songs. One of the more obscure songs was called "The Seeds of Love" which he had learned about from a gardener called Mr. England (reflected in the lyric "Mr England sowing the seeds of love").
