Tears for Fears stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday night to perform “The Girl That I Call Home,” a cut from their recent live album Songs for a Nervous Planet.
With their live band and backing vocalists in tow, Tears for Fears gave a wistful performance of “The Girl That I Call Home.” Roland Orzabal, who wrote the song about his wife, takes the lead through the song’s delicate verses, and is joined in a high harmony by his bandmate Curt Smith in the chorus. Watch the band’s performance below.
