This video totally encompasses my experience at Reed and why I almost miss it..

Check out the mullets, the monkey reading a book, the Hasidic Jew playing the drums, and the synthesizer solo.

I didn't watch the whole thing b/c I don' want to play it with sound while I am at work but this is the one w/ the Doyle Owl correct? If so where is it?

[medeainpink]

I don't think the Doyle Owl ever made an appearance in a Tears for Fears video....

What video are you talking about?

[anomar]

I have read Reed folklore (maybe in an old student handbook) that there is the doyle owl in a tears for fears video from the 80s. I am not smoking crack when I say that though perhaps the writer was. That's all I know!

[psychobookworm]

I've heard that one, too.

wikipedia seems to think that it did... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doyle_Owl

[rosesinhereyes]

But their source is the Reed admissions "Reed lore" webpage...

[brooklebee]

yeah, but if you google "Doyle Owl Tears for Fears" you get a number of other hits. None of them give the specific video, though.

Clearly, the only thing to do is to watch every Tears for Fears music video and carefully scan for the Doyle Owl...

[medeainpink]

Yeah. None of this makes sense. Why would Tears for Fears steal the Doyle Owl? If someone gave a reason/feasible story then I might be inclined to believe it.
