Your next review in the Tears for Fears discography has to be either Shout , Mad World , or Head Over Heels . Three absolute classics ! You will enjoy all 3 Aileen !!
Yeah, my brother bought this album back in 1985. Songs from the Big Chair was on our record player constantly. I remember thinking: Man this is a great album!
My first record was in 1960 in London and "Advice For The Young At Heart" is one of my Top 10 of all time with the accompanying video showing a Latino Wedding..
One of my favorite ever "tears" moments was seeing them in 1993 (with only orzabel) and Gayle Ann Dorsey on bass The back ground vocals on Woman in Chains was AMAZING SO DAMN MOVING WOW
That's an excellent list. I suppose it would be obligatory to add "Mad World," but if I had to pick just one song from their first album, it would be "Pale Shelter."
If the 80's had an official song, it would be this one. This song just captures the essence of the 80's. Free spirited and fun. I miss those days more and more every single day
I'm a metal head but have never had a problem listening to Tears for Fears. The guitarist is also a great singer. Check out some of their other music to see him take the lead on vocals. He is also a really solid guitar player.
Just here to say I'm a metalhead guitarist who can sing, rap, and even produce beats yet you'll find more 70s and 80s music on my Playlists. One day i could be listening to elvis and the next i could be listening to twista. From the Beatles to frank Sinatra or 311 to killswitch engage. Being diverse no matter how painful (country 😅) the transitions can be will inevitably broaden your musical horizons.
Glad you mentioned it--one of my all time favorites for cool riffs. The one at the end is fire. You should watch the version when they do it live at "The Proms" It's on UA-cam.
People often don't realise how deep and profound their early work was pre this song , this album was a bit of a lighter departure with flavours of that earlier work
"Shout" is the quintessential Tears for Fears song. You can't listen to the group without having that song going on in your head. You need to check it out.
HAHA...I love that movie! I swear, Mitch is played by Sarah Jessica Parker...you can't convince me otherwise, LOL! Once you see it; you can't unsee it 🤣
Curt Smith went viral during the pandemic for posting a duet with his daughter covering the bands hit “Mad World”. It’s beautifully done and it’s cool to see he still very much has it.
I grew up with this wonderful music. The lyric, "There's a room where the light won't find you Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down When they do, I'll be right behind you" rips me apart every time. It reminds me of my late mother's love. So powerful.
This song is an example of the perfect summer song. Whether you're sitting and looking out at a beautiful landscape, hanging out at the river, downtown at a summer parade or cruising on a freeway with the top down of your car. this song is just all of that and then some 🙏
Aileen, 'Tears for Fears' are a band from the U.K. they formed in 1980 and had many hits through the '80s into the '90s and beyond. Songs which I recommend by them are: "Mad World", "Memories Fade", "Change", "Ideas as Opiates", "Pale Shelter", "Watch Me Bleed", "Shout", "Head Over Heels", "Sowing the Seeds of Love", "The Way You Are". There are many more but these are good ones to continue with.
This is my favorite song of theirs. It was used in the soundtrack of many 80s films, including "Real Genius" starring Val Kilmer, where Val had the line "Ice is nice!" Little did he know that a year later he's be playing the "Ice man" in Top Gun and he was anything but nice! As for the gas prices, yeah, it hurts. When I drove my 1999 Ford F-250 off the lot in 1999 I remembered the first fuel up. Diesel cost $1.17 a gallon. 271,000 miles later, it still runs like a dream.
@@Isleofskye Here in northern Arizona, the prices for fuel are as follows for 24 May, 2024: Regular = $3.68 Midgrade = $3.88 Premium = $4.28 Diesel = $3.85 That's price per gallon.
Fun fact, we have a speech therapist to thank for the wonderful voice of the singer, as a kid he had a really serious stutter, and his therapy included singing lessons to learn better control of his diaphragm, this is where he (the singer) discovered that he enjoyed singing and actually sounded pretty darn good, and... he did not stutter during singing. Over the years he got better and better at singing and learned to control his stutter thnx to that, and eventually it gave us this amazing band for the ages with songs that stand the test of time.
@@JS-TexanJeff Yeah there have been a good few great singers with a stutter when speaking normally, several country singers if i recall correctly. Tbh, singing as therapy? sounds like one of those rare occasions when therapy is actually fun hehehe
A few other Tears for Fears Songs to listen to are 'Pale Shelter', 'Mad World', 'Change', 'Shout', 'Woman in Chains', 'The Seeds of Love' and 'The Year of the Knife'
Now you need to go watch Wierd Science and fully embrace the 80s. Follow it up with Farris Bulers Day Off and Goonies. The 80s starter kit. Just add neon colors
Always loved these guys, certainly a distinctive, gorgeous sound. "SHOUT" is a great choice for Round #2. I bought a couple 12" club mixes of theirs on vinyl back in the day that had some really great stuff on them. Great pick for us today, thanks Aileen! :)
Tears for Fears is the epitome of the 1980's music, as much as Madonna or Cyndi Lauper, or the hair bands. Love their music, especially this song and Suffer the Children, my 2 favorites
Great review to an iconic song, an iconic band. Tears For Fears were big back in the 80s. Please check out Shout, Head over Heels, and Sowing The Seeds of Love. Love from the UK!!!
Aileen you hit it on the nose I have been saying it for years I am 56 and 80's is where my heart is. When a new song came on the radio we never heard before we INSTANTLY knew who it was. Tears for Fears Joan Jett, Flock of Seagulls, Simple Minds, David Bowie, Cindy Lauper, Human League, Level 42, Thomas Dolby Depeche Mode witch by the way I would love to see you react to them and on and on In metal we had Quiet Riot, Twisted Sister, Scorpions, Whitesnake. You would have LOVED growing up in that era of music mastery. Thank you for reacting to them. Much Love.
Well stated, the radio….(instantly thought of Rush & Queen) brought us everything, & if I didn’t have it on, I was burning through my cassette case cruisin the strip on the weekends!😎🤘
Thanks Alieen for visiting my favorite era for music the 1980’s. So much great music to choose from. Can you look into bands such as U2, INXS, The Police The Cure and The Talking Heads. Highly appreciate you. Thanks for your energy and great smile.
Such powerful '80s vibes! This one is always good for an encore. Everyone had great hair in the '70s and '80s. Yes, check out the official music video for their hit song HEAD OVER HEELS.
"Head over Heels," "Sowing the Seeds of Love," "Shout"! These guys are the Pink Floyd of 80s and 90s pop music (maybe along with Pet Shop Boys)--very thoughtful lyrics and top-notch musicianship! P.S. Those gas prices are high even for that time. Those were the prices you'd pay if you were driving between L.A. and Las Vegas.
Their song 'Shout' was also covered by Disturbed in 2000. The final track on their 1985 album is called 'Listen', and while it's not a popular choice, I always found it so relaxing, that by the end of the song, I would be effectively immobilized.
A great blend of electronic sounds and traditional instruments, and two incredible singers. And those Eighties haircuts & clothes! Fantastic group with a library of great songs. "Head Over Heels" features in "Donnie Darko" and plays so well with the sequence in the film it's lined up with.
Oh there are soooo many! ‘Woman in Chains’, ‘Sowing the seeds of love’, ‘shout’, killing with kindness’ elemental’, Mad World’, ‘ The tipping point’………
fun fact The year the song came out, it was featured in the ending to the science fiction comedy film Real Genius. In 1986, the song won Best Single at the Brit Awards.
Thank you for this reaction. You're amazing, don't ever stop being you. This song broke out the year I got my drivers license and I drove the entire summer to this song. You could say it was an anthem for the high-school kids of that time, and the 80's youth in general. Semi-random... That guitar work in the second half of the bridge is subtle and nuanced, but completely outstanding. Anyway, again, thank you.
Great song from my childhood, great to see Curt and Roland getting a lot of praise in 2024. They had a number of hit songs, but you should definitely check out "Shout!" next.
Great reaction! Such a smooth and skilled band, still one of my favorites. Head Over Heels and Sowing the Seeds of Love are my other two favorites that you should absolutely listen to.
Fits the themes of the movie and matches the moment so well. My favorite 80s movie, somehow criminally underrated now. An actual countercultural comedy that cares about actual nerds and holds up almost entirely compared to other 80s comedies.
Shout, Sowing the Seeds of Love, Woman in Chains, Mad World. These four very different songs are not only great, they also show you how creative and great these musicians are.
The funny thing is those were the "Side of the road in the middle of no-where" ripoff prices. The price shown here is $1.45 per gallon. The average price for a gallon of gas in 1985 (when this was released) was $0.88 according to eia.gov
Only I’ve ever heard the chorus bit, but never the full song till now! I have to say real quick, you do a lot of that eyebrow thing and it’s so cute how often you do it 🥹❤️When you mention how electric it feels, you were so on point with that!!
Great GREAT band from the UK. Great Music!! They just got back together a couple of years ago after not talking with one another for over ten years. They released a new album called The Tipping Point, a bit dark, but really really good. One of my all time favourite bands.
This was filmed in the Imperial Valley of central Southern California, where the big sand dunes are used for ATV activity. It's really the middle of nowhere. And we were appalled by those gas prices then, it used to be 25 cents a gallon just about 10 years earlier.
Everytime I hear this song, I'm 14 again. Tears for Fears reminds me of so many things... I went to see them live & loved it. Happy to see GenZ enjoying it.
Yeah, this was a monster hit. My elder brother was very into Tears for Fears. I think I get it more with age. It was a type of music that grew out of psychology and post-punk music in Britain - and which, reconfigured, found a big audience in the 1980s.
So so much more to this very underrated English band. Forget the singles,which are great,but concentrate on the album deep cuts. That’s where the gold is.
Every song from the Album “Songs from the Big Chair” is gold. Also check out their other songs like Sowing the Seeds of Love, or Women in Chains. They are amazing
Huge song in the 80s. The video also reflects the vibe of the time, maybe because I was in college at the time living in a beach community in So. Cal, it really brings back so many similar care free memories that was shown.
This was a bit before my time, but it was an era where record labels went out and hunted for musicians and bands. Now the record labels create the musicians and bands. They find one sound that is popular and flood the market with carbon copies until everyone is tired of it. That is by design to make as much money as possible in as short amount of time as possible. It's not about the art anymore.
My mom and oldest cousin favorite band! Grew up with there music and they are awesome! My personal favorites Head of Heels and Sowing the Seeds! both worth to check out!
Everybody knows this track, and the rest of the album it came from (Songs From The Big Chair), but you should check out a few of the tracks of their first album as well, including the title track The Hurting, Mad World, Pale Shelter and of course Change - all brilliant songs in their own right.
one of the biggest hits of the entire decade....Tears For Fears are very good...a lot of great songs...people have mentioned them in the comments already but Shout, Head Over Heels, Sowing the Seeds of Love, Mad World, Pale Shelter, Woman in Chains...if not for the channel you should check them out on your own... :)
![American reacts to Posts That Prove American's Think That Only They Exist [part 2]](/img/n.gif)
Your next review in the Tears for Fears discography has to be either Shout , Mad World , or Head Over Heels . Three absolute classics ! You will enjoy all 3 Aileen !!
definitely shout, in my opinion. so good!
Absolutely, she needs to do all three!
Sowing The Seeds of Love. C'mon.
Head over heels best song and video
@@Shea_Connerty Classic video for sure !
One of the greatest bands of this era. Exceptional artists
Saw them at the odeon around 85 and they were absolutely superb live.
Great band and glad to see they came back with a very strong album recently.
This is one song that brings back so many memories of the 80's. So nostalgic it hurts!
Remember Dennis Miller weekend update on SNL? Also he continued using this as his opener for the Dennis Miller Show into the 90s
Yeah, my brother bought this album back in 1985. Songs from the Big Chair was on our record player constantly. I remember thinking: Man this is a great album!
Definitely brings back memories of the summer of '85!
I feel that. It truly makes one want to go back to that time with the knowledge we have now!
Nostalgia is a beautiful thing ..
I'd go back tomorrow if it were possible 😁🎶👍
I'm now 62 same age as Kurt and Roland
"Welcome to your life, there's no turning back." Has to be one of the greatest opening lines ever.
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life
Tryna make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die’
Guess the song?!
Great lyrics in this song all around
@@MrBillyboyroge bittersweet symphony. But of course.
Also check "Shout" and "Head over heels".
For sure great songs. My personal favorite is "The Working Hour".
and Sowing the Seeds of Love
Shout and mad world to start
My first record was in 1960 in London and "Advice For The Young At Heart" is one of my Top 10 of all time with the accompanying video showing a Latino Wedding..
Mad World
"Head Over Heels", "Sowing the Seeds of Love", "Shout", "Woman in Chains"/ Check 'em.
One of my favorite ever "tears" moments was seeing them in 1993 (with only orzabel) and Gayle Ann Dorsey on bass
The back ground vocals on Woman in Chains was AMAZING
SO DAMN MOVING
WOW
That's an excellent list. I suppose it would be obligatory to add "Mad World," but if I had to pick just one song from their first album, it would be "Pale Shelter."
The band actually has two great singers! This song was sung primarily by Curt. Check out "Head Over Heels" to see Roland front and center.
This brings back memories of when I was in the Marine corps. A bunch of guys sitting around cleaning our M16's. Singing this, the irony just hit me.
been there done that
Same here
Thank you for your service.
A strange time in history to be coming of age. But also some great memories as well.
Me to, I was at Pendleton 43 area at this time. Going through a divorce so its bittersweet for me. great song Allways takes me back.
If the 80's had an official song, it would be this one. This song just captures the essence of the 80's. Free spirited and fun. I miss those days more and more every single day
The 80's encapsulated in one song. You MUST listen to their song "Sowing The Seeds Of Love", complete brilliance.
I'm a metal head but have never had a problem listening to Tears for Fears. The guitarist is also a great singer. Check out some of their other music to see him take the lead on vocals. He is also a really solid guitar player.
Just here to say I'm a metalhead guitarist who can sing, rap, and even produce beats yet you'll find more 70s and 80s music on my Playlists. One day i could be listening to elvis and the next i could be listening to twista. From the Beatles to frank Sinatra or 311 to killswitch engage. Being diverse no matter how painful (country 😅) the transitions can be will inevitably broaden your musical horizons.
The guitar solos in this are woefully overlooked. One of the best songs of the 80's.
🎯🎯
I always love the one at the end of Shout too. Lulled by the new wave sound and you don't expect the sneaky good guitars to come bursting through.
Glad you mentioned it--one of my all time favorites for cool riffs. The one at the end is fire. You should watch the version when they do it live at "The Proms" It's on UA-cam.
One of the rare bands with two legit lead singers
Don't see that too often. Alice In Chains is another band with 2 singers that comes to mind.
@@YeahResident The Cars was another one from the same era - and XTC.
Little River Band...
@@YeahResidentChicago, Supertramp, Styx?
Also Tears for Fears has another Interesting Song "Mad World"😊
And many others too ❤
My favourite lyric: "I can't stand this indecision, married with a lack of vision" really is a timeless statement.
People often don't realise how deep and profound their early work was pre this song , this album was a bit of a lighter departure with flavours of that earlier work
I love “One headline, why believe it” myself. I didn’t really understand how great the lyrics were until well into adulthood.
"Shout" is the quintessential Tears for Fears song. You can't listen to the group without having that song going on in your head. You need to check it out.
Real Genius... this brings back so many memories. If you haven't seen that movie I suggest you watch it. Underrated gem
HAHA...I love that movie! I swear, Mitch is played by Sarah Jessica Parker...you can't convince me otherwise, LOL! Once you see it; you can't unsee it 🤣
Curt Smith went viral during the pandemic for posting a duet with his daughter covering the bands hit “Mad World”. It’s beautifully done and it’s cool to see he still very much has it.
40 years later and it still gives me chills. Missing the 1980's......
I grew up with this wonderful music. The lyric, "There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do, I'll be right behind you" rips me apart every time. It reminds me of my late mother's love. So powerful.
"Shout" is really good too.
I always loved the line "I can't stand this indecision, married with a lack of vision"
This song is an example of the perfect summer song.

Great Story. How much is Gas(petrol in The UK) and Diesel ,now,please and I will tell you The UK prices,currently,as a comparison. :)
@@Isleofskye Here in northern Arizona, the prices for fuel are as follows for 24 May, 2024:
Regular = $3.68
Midgrade = $3.88
Premium = $4.28
Diesel = $3.85
That's price per gallon.
When you consider all prices have doubled or tripled since 1999, gas prices are the same if not cheaper today 🥸
Welcome to 80’s feel good, makes you wanna dance, happy time music, Simpler times. They don’t make it like this anymore.
Every time I hear this song it brings me back to simpler times, check out Shout, Sowing the Seeds &/or Head over Heels. Cheers Fr: Canada
Fun fact, we have a speech therapist to thank for the wonderful voice of the singer, as a kid he had a really serious stutter, and his therapy included singing lessons to learn better control of his diaphragm, this is where he (the singer) discovered that he enjoyed singing and actually sounded pretty darn good, and... he did not stutter during singing.
Over the years he got better and better at singing and learned to control his stutter thnx to that, and eventually it gave us this amazing band for the ages with songs that stand the test of time.
The country singer Mel Tillis was similar....could sing great, but stuttered when he talked. I don't think he ever outgrew the stuttering.
@@JS-TexanJeff Yeah there have been a good few great singers with a stutter when speaking normally, several country singers if i recall correctly.
Tbh, singing as therapy? sounds like one of those rare occasions when therapy is actually fun hehehe
Head over heels should be the next reaction
A few other Tears for Fears Songs to listen to are 'Pale Shelter', 'Mad World', 'Change', 'Shout', 'Woman in Chains', 'The Seeds of Love' and 'The Year of the Knife'
Tears for fears have many hits like shout and woman in chains
Mad World and Shout are a go to for this band.
Now you need to go watch Wierd Science and fully embrace the 80s. Follow it up with Farris Bulers Day Off and Goonies. The 80s starter kit. Just add neon colors
You left out Breakfast Club :)
Always loved these guys, certainly a distinctive, gorgeous sound. "SHOUT" is a great choice for Round #2. I bought a couple 12" club mixes of theirs on vinyl back in the day that had some really great stuff on them. Great pick for us today, thanks Aileen! :)

REAL GENIUS 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
Great review to an iconic song, an iconic band. Tears For Fears were big back in the 80s. Please check out Shout, Head over Heels, and Sowing The Seeds of Love. Love from the UK!!!
I was a teenager in the 80s and boy was it the best decade for everything. Music TV Films Fashion Art just brilliant
Aileen you hit it on the nose I have been saying it for years I am 56 and 80's is where my heart is. When a new song came on the radio we never heard before we INSTANTLY knew who it was. Tears for Fears Joan Jett, Flock of Seagulls, Simple Minds, David Bowie, Cindy Lauper, Human League, Level 42, Thomas Dolby Depeche Mode witch by the way I would love to see you react to them and on and on In metal we had Quiet Riot, Twisted Sister, Scorpions, Whitesnake. You would have LOVED growing up in that era of music mastery. Thank you for reacting to them. Much Love.
My sister and I were huge Big Country fans. I put in a suggestion for Aileen on Discord.
@@Hybridgtr Big Country was Awesome
Well stated, the radio….(instantly thought of Rush & Queen) brought us everything, & if I didn’t have it on, I was burning through my cassette case cruisin the strip on the weekends!😎🤘
Oh yeah, this is the kind of music that can lift up your spirit at any moment in your life that you need it!
Thanks Alieen for visiting my favorite era for music the 1980’s. So much great music to choose from. Can you look into bands such as U2, INXS, The Police The Cure and The Talking Heads. Highly appreciate you. Thanks for your energy and great smile.
Shout is a must listen too! Great reaction Aileen! Love from Sweden! 💙💛💙
We didn't know how good we had it.
Such powerful '80s vibes! This one is always good for an encore. Everyone had great hair in the '70s and '80s. Yes, check out the official music video for their hit song HEAD OVER HEELS.
"Head over Heels," "Sowing the Seeds of Love," "Shout"! These guys are the Pink Floyd of 80s and 90s pop music (maybe along with Pet Shop Boys)--very thoughtful lyrics and top-notch musicianship!
P.S. Those gas prices are high even for that time. Those were the prices you'd pay if you were driving between L.A. and Las Vegas.
Ah yes…. One of the anthem songs of Gen-X. Thanks for bringing back the memories.
I have loved this song ever since I heard it at the end of the movie “Real Genius” when I was a kid in the 80’s!
Head over heels, sowing the seeds, shout! All are fantastic!
Their song 'Shout' was also covered by Disturbed in 2000. The final track on their 1985 album is called 'Listen', and while it's not a popular choice, I always found it so relaxing, that by the end of the song, I would be effectively immobilized.

Lol yup and about 30 more on top of that!!
Their whole collection is fab - def worth the trip down the rabbit hole x
fun fact The year the song came out, it was featured in the ending to the science fiction comedy film Real Genius. In 1986, the song won Best Single at the Brit Awards.

You cannot beat 80’s music. Period.
This is my ABSOLUTE favorite non-metal band in history. Keep delving.
Great reaction! Such a smooth and skilled band, still one of my favorites. Head Over Heels and Sowing the Seeds of Love are my other two favorites that you should absolutely listen to.
Now you have to watch Real Genius with Val Kilmer. This is the closing credits cut, and a great end to hysterically good movie.
“I was hot, and I was hungry!”
Fits the themes of the movie and matches the moment so well. My favorite 80s movie, somehow criminally underrated now. An actual countercultural comedy that cares about actual nerds and holds up almost entirely compared to other 80s comedies.
Hi Aileen, I'm kinda new with you here, but I absolutely love your focused interpretation of song craft! ..btw you have fantastic eyes lol 🎶🧡
This is one of the "mount rushmore" songs from the 80's
💯
"Woman in Chains" is a must listen with Oleta Adams as a guest vocalist on the song. Simply stunning 😮
Lova ya, Aileen! Great work and great selection of an awesome tune.
Shout, Sowing the Seeds of Love, Woman in Chains, Mad World. These four very different songs are not only great, they also show you how creative and great these musicians are.
😂😂😂😂 the Gas Price Comments! Yeah we Feel You on that Aileen.
Yeah, I remember back then when you could fill the tank for $20. 😒
This song just makes you smile and happy.
I miss those gas prices!!! 😢 Thanks Aileen ❤💛
Yessur!
The funny thing is those were the "Side of the road in the middle of no-where" ripoff prices. The price shown here is $1.45 per gallon. The average price for a gallon of gas in 1985 (when this was released) was $0.88 according to eia.gov
THANKS TO THE PEDO LIBERALS!!
Only I’ve ever heard the chorus bit, but never the full song till now! I have to say real quick, you do a lot of that eyebrow thing and it’s so cute how often you do it 🥹❤️When you mention how electric it feels, you were so on point with that!!
Great GREAT band from the UK. Great Music!! They just got back together a couple of years ago after not talking with one another for over ten years. They released a new album called The Tipping Point, a bit dark, but really really good. One of my all time favourite bands.
This was filmed in the Imperial Valley of central Southern California, where the big sand dunes are used for ATV activity. It's really the middle of nowhere. And we were appalled by those gas prices then, it used to be 25 cents a gallon just about 10 years earlier.

Tears for Fears: Roland & Curt recently released a new album, The Tipping Point in 2022
Another classic upload from the queen she is so pretty aswell thank U queen have a lovely night looking forward to Ur next upload
Head Over Heels, Shout, Mad World, Pale Shelter, absolute banging tracks
Everytime I hear this song, I'm 14 again.
Tears for Fears reminds me of so many things...
I went to see them live & loved it.
Happy to see GenZ enjoying it.
Yeah, this was a monster hit. My elder brother was very into Tears for Fears. I think I get it more with age. It was a type of music that grew out of psychology and post-punk music in Britain - and which, reconfigured, found a big audience in the 1980s.
So so much more to this very underrated English band.
Forget the singles,which are great,but concentrate on the album deep cuts.
That’s where the gold is.
And that's what was so great about how most 80's music made you feel; there was so much talent and a ton of eclectic music from many genres.
Every song from the Album “Songs from the Big Chair” is gold. Also check out their other songs like Sowing the Seeds of Love, or Women in Chains. They are amazing
You're right, their voices are unmistakable. Check out their song "Shout", then check out Disturbed's cover of it as well.
Huge song in the 80s. The video also reflects the vibe of the time, maybe because I was in college at the time living in a beach community in So. Cal, it really brings back so many similar care free memories that was shown.
Shout, Head over Heels and Seeds of Love are 3 incredible songs by them.
They are an excellent band. Yes, please, Shout and Head Over Heels. These guys wrote the beautiful Mad World.
they both have that voice, makes them so good together.
Shout, or head over heels, or mad world, or woman in chains. So much good music by this band!
Yeah your beautiful and your voice!!! New subscriber
This is the '80s in a nutshell. TFF were phenomenal, always will be. Do Pale Shelter next.
This song and this video is the concentrated and distilled 80's in it's purest form.
This was a bit before my time, but it was an era where record labels went out and hunted for musicians and bands. Now the record labels create the musicians and bands. They find one sound that is popular and flood the market with carbon copies until everyone is tired of it. That is by design to make as much money as possible in as short amount of time as possible. It's not about the art anymore.
My mom and oldest cousin favorite band! Grew up with there music and they are awesome! My personal favorites Head of Heels and Sowing the Seeds! both worth to check out!
Surely one of the best and most successful rock bands of the 80ies !!!! So different and rich in sounds and songs.
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down, great lyrics. Pale Shelter next please
It was the subliminal song you hear in your head mellow and soft. Just 🙂 Nice feeling song
We had it all in the 80s. I loved being young during this time. Life was simple and amazing
These guys are incredible. I saw them on 'The Night of the Proms'. Fan forever. And yes ... 'Shout' 😀
Everybody knows this track, and the rest of the album it came from (Songs From The Big Chair), but you should check out a few of the tracks of their first album as well, including the title track The Hurting, Mad World, Pale Shelter and of course Change - all brilliant songs in their own right.
And you are so right about the 'carbon copies' of today - these were much better times indeed!
This song takes me back to the days of catchin my girl. Dancing the night away and then take her home to do STUFF. 🤣
FREEDOM. ❤
This track literally debuted on the Billboard chart when I was 12 and subsequently climbed to No.1. Which is not bad, in general...
one of the biggest hits of the entire decade....Tears For Fears are very good...a lot of great songs...people have mentioned them in the comments already but Shout, Head Over Heels, Sowing the Seeds of Love, Mad World, Pale Shelter, Woman in Chains...if not for the channel you should check them out on your own... :)
This video was shot in Cabazon California, just before the Palm Springs area. I used to live about 30 min from this location.
Wowwww,one of my favorite bands
