Blake Lewis and KJ Sawka have always managed to balance audience demand with intimate attention to craft and detail. While they’ve made loads of of crowd-pleasing pop, rock, and electronic music, at the same time they’ve always demonstrated a deep awareness of musical history, along with the timeless qualities of the best recordings. Now, with their first release together as The Private Language, it should come as no surprise that it’s a cover of a certified classic, the 1985 chart topper, ‘Everybody Wants To Rule The World’, by Tears For Fears.
