tears in heaven

Share definition
Eric Clapton was inspired to write this because his son fell out the window from his 52 story apartment building in New York City. The loss of Conor, Eric's only son. As it turned out, this was Eric's best selling album since the Cream days. To this day it has sold more than 7 million copies in US only. Mostly because of the monster hit Tears In Heaven.
Would you know my name, if I saw you in Heaven, would it be the same, if I saw you in Heaven....

Betty: It's funny! But I'm sure he hides the tears of a clown.
Johnny: ...Betty your such a frikin downer.

Tears for Fears

Share definition
A suberb, 'soft' rock/pop/light new-wave group from the 80's. They are responsible for such hits like 'I Believe', 'Shout', and 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World', just to name a few. They're thoughtful, oftentimes introspective lyrics and (usually) talented singing and musical prowess helped set them at least a step above many of the bands in the 80's.
Easily one of the best 80's bands, whom just released a new album called Everybody Loves a Happy Ending.

noun. a delightful beverage to be sipped while cackling evilly or just fun to watch as they stream down the cheeks of the broken wretches you have utterly defeated. These may be gathered after activities such as revealing a bun in the oven is your doing, opening a giant can of whoop-ass or targeting an uncooperative captive's homeworld with planet-destroying lasers from a fully armed and operational battlestation.
