    Just saw them last year and their sound and singing quality is still stellar. Awesome show that featured this song and all the rest of their hits in a great outdoor venue, Budweiser Stage, on Lake Ontario in Toronto. I was amazed at how good they still are in front of the biggest packed crowd I've seen there in the last 10 years.

    Some very of-the-time UK references here. I was 15 in 1989 when this came out and just starting to become aware of politics.
    "Politician granny with your high ideals, have you no idea of how the majority feels?" is a reference to the then UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher - it proved prophetic as she was outed from power a year later ...
    "Food goes to waste, so nice to eat, so nice to taste" is a reference to the EEC (forerunner of the EU) butter mountains and milk lakes which were making headlines at the time, and seemed obscene in the light of recent famines in Africa.
    "Kick out the style, bring back the jam" was a reference to UK mod legend Paul Weller's band The Style Council, which was a very different style to his earlier band The Jam and seemed to reflect 80s slick excess and materialistic attitude much more (at least as far as their image went) and perhaps seemed a far cry from the raw and relateable late 70s/early 80s sound of The Jam. TFF seemed to be communicating their disapproval of their colleague's reinvention of himself and were suggesting he go back to his 'Jam' roots! :)

    As the years pass my appreciation for these guys just keeps growing. Listening to them as a kid they were great, and everyone knew that, but there's something timeless about their appeal. Not every band has that. They might not be iconic in the way the Beatles or some other pop bands are, but damn ... as familiar as you get with their songs you don't get sick of hearing them. Tears For Fears endures!

    This song was Tears for Fears' second biggest hit song in America. The song did peaked at the #2 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the late summer of 1989. This song is definitely have a Beatles-like influence circa 1967. A song like this could appeared on the Sgt. Pepper album. A definitely banger indeed!!!

    I;ve loved this song since I was a teenager.. and yet revisiting it and focusing on the lyrics - it's VERY relevant right now. Don't let anyone tell you what to think. Think critically - our bond to each other can save us.. The "politics of greed.." has to GO. As Asia said - the song is super catchy and at the time lots of bands had songs along these lines so I think there was a tendency to not look further into it - at least maybe for me - or I didn't realize how serious the damage could be back then. This song has a message for us in 2024.

    if you want some experiences check out woman is chains by tears for fears with oleta adams doing vocals roland orzabald of tears for fears is in my opinion the equivalet of what george michals was to wham .. i give him top spot for production and excellence .. the clarity of every word and sound in every song they made in an interview i heard oleta said at first i didn't want to do it what was recording with this pop band goin to do for my jazz career.. she also said i can't say i like the guy but what i learned about production and recording an album was well worth it .. i notice you have toni childs listed but not the song i've got to go now which is amazing and moving i came to this page to see if you had reactions to dax to be a man or the mega remix .and didn't see it but did notice many other names that i would suggest parallels to driving and cryin fly me coragious check out shotgum messiah living without you ,or lord tracy foolish love, then compair that to she's a bitch .. junkyard hands off.. possibly nighwish phantom of the opera .. the version with the lady in yellow singing is the best .. then compair Kanye's runaway to silversteins version.. i prevail's version of blank space to swifts.. or pierce the veil s version of just the way you are to bruno's i'll stop but i promise all of these are worth the time ..
