Tears For Fears were a band in the 80’s where you listened to it, alone in your bedroom. For hours. People didn’t have a language for emotional problems back then. As they do today. Ppl didn’t ever talk about anxiety etc. Tears For Fears verbalised problems/turmoil for us in the 80’s. Yes their songs were played at parties. But they were an emotional touchstone too.
You should check out "Sowing the Seeds of Love"..a kind of homage to the Beatles. ❤️ Great song and video.

The album Songs from the Big Chair was an 1980's masterpiece from Tears for Fears. Shout along with Everybody Wants to Rule the World stood out as instant classics which have stood the test of time!!! Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith are two of the finest singers and musicians to come out of England. I love their work and they sound just as good today as they did when Shout came out 37 years ago. Can you believe it's been 37 years? I was 17 when the album and the song came out. My God how the time flies by!!!

@@lynnhettrick7588 No, it was written and recorded first by TFF. Lots of other people have covered it (notably Gary Jules' version) but it was a 1982 Tears for Fears original. "Mad World" was originally written on acoustic guitar when Orzabal was 19 after being inspired to write a new wave song in the vein of Duran Duran's "Girls on Film". After a few false starts with Orzabal on vocals, he suggested Smith sing it and "suddenly it sounded fabulous". --Wikipedia.

Tears for Fears are a Eighties British band from Bath, England! Roland is lead singer on this song but Curt led on Everybody Wants To Rule World. I love both of their voices! I loved the eighties!❤️❤️
an absolute iconic 80's jam... probably a top 10 on anyone's 80's list. Great reaction to a great song, enjoyed it!

The more you listen to TFF the more you will hear that they do alot of building up songs in layers with a lot going on. Their songs are truth in the sum = the parts. Amber you are right about Rolands voice. Very unique & distinct. No one else sounds like him & his voice is instantly recognizable. Curts voice is softer but good as well. This song featured Rolands voice where Everybody Wants To Rule The World was mostly Curt. One of the best bands ever. Please do more by them , you won't be disappointed. Sowing The Seeds will have you thinking Beatles all day.

Sowing the seeds, caused their break-up to a degree. They argued a lot of the direction of the song, it was the search for perfection. Supposedly they were not happy with it originally, but it is a perfect song. The lyrics are brilliant, and the changes throughout are what makes it a perfect pop song. I'm a heavy metal dude. But t4f are possibly my favourite band growing up back then. What about mad world...fully electronic and another iconic song. woman in chains is pure soul music in a way. they can do everything. including a brand new number one album a month or two back..

The guitar solo in this song is very underrated. Not overly challenging, but sounds amazing!
This album was huge. A couple other must listens from it "Mother's Talk" and "The Working Hour". I think you already reacted to "Head over Heels", but you should hear "Broken" it the song that both leads into, and is reprised, at the end of "Head over Heels", really impressive when the two songs are listened to back to back.

Greetings from the UK, home of Tears for Fears. The "echoey" effect is a particular effect called gated reverb, actually discovered by accident by Phil Collins. It is used a lot of 80s artistes to create a deeper effect to their voices. It is used in Head Over Heels to accentuate Roland's vibrato, which I know Jay appreciated when you reacted to it! I would be interested to see what you make of their more experimental first album, The Hurting. Mad World and Changes are musts.

Gated reverb is used on the snare drum in a lot of 80s songs. The common vocal reverb as heard here is a plate reverb with a medium decay, perhaps some slapback delay on there.
Tears for Fears is one of my very favorite bands. Their production is impeccable, such great songwriters. A couple more incredible songs from them: Sowing the Seeds of Love, Woman in Chains, Elemental, Break It Down Again, Raoul and the Kings of Spain, and one of my very favorites, Goodnight Song. So many more to recommend but these can get you started. Great reaction!!!

@htald The album is called 'The Seeds of Love'. Woman in Chains is the opening track.
One of the few bands of the 80s whose lyrics expressed the idealistic values of the hippie generation -- while most bands of the era usually stayed within the "normal" bounds of pop lyrical content.
1985 was a big year for Tears for Fears. This song was their second #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in a row. Everybody Wants To Rule The World was their first #1 hit in America. Back to back #1's. Unbelievable!!! By the way, the front man and lead singer of Tears for Fears is Roland Orzabal.
Tears For Fears, Shout...This is what made the 80's a great decade for music!!!
Curt Smith the bass player and his daughter did some amazing videos during all this Covid mess. Very much worth watching!

I also love the end of the video where there's dozens of people singing along, it makes you want to get up and sing and dance.

Wow, this song brings me back to how we were both original and hopeful and all the while in the cold war with Russia where no one knew if one day someone would just decide to push a button. We didn't have the internet, just what was reported on tv and in books. The insanity of building up weapons to keep a balance to try to keep peace. As a young person at the time this song helped me get some of it off my chest.

Yes, and also they often used 'gated reverb'. It's a reverb sound that's cut off by a noise gate. This type of drum sound was basically discovered / invented by Phil Collins and made famous by the song "In The Air Tonight".
80's child here, had the privilege of hearing all this stuff new as it came out on records purchased by my parents and also listened to it on the radio. Tears For Fears was a definite favorite in our household and this song was an absolute f*cking MONSTER in the 80's!
one of the best songs that define the 80's - great lyrics, sound, amazing guitar, soulful masterpiece
It was a great song back then. Now it's possibly an Anthem for this time we live in...
I checked out in the '80s and focused on book lernin', but this group's music made its way to my study, and I still love it to this day. Thank y'all so much for keeping groovy music alive. If I could make one tiny suggestion, it would be that, when you stop in mid-sentence, you back it up a little, so that you don't miss, in this case, one of the most important lines in the song. "They gave you life, and in return you gave them Hell." has more impact than "They gave you li..." [Commentary]..."and in return you gave them Hell." As y'all evolve the form of music reaction, you will, of course, adopt best practices as they arise. If I weren't writing a story about the phenomenon, I wouldn't have mentioned it. I love the vibe here. The world needs a re-engroovenation. Peace and Love.
I have something special for you, watch “Mad World” sung by Curt Smith and his daughter. They sing in perfect harmony with both playing the acoustic guitar. Roland was the lead singer on this, Curt was on Everybody Wants To Rule The World. I saw TFF and Hall & Oates a couple of years ago. It was everything. 😁❤️
For the new listeners, looking through the history of music the 80s synth pop in particular captured urban pain like it had never been captured before. There were so many new sounds in the 80s and this song, as one example, captured in a powerful way that dissonance that perhaps we all feel sometimes.
As angry teenagers we would be all yelling "shout, shout..." on the dancefloor when this song came on!
I went to one of their concerts back in high school. We got cheap seats so we were behind the stage looking at their backs. But at one point the lead singer turned around, looked up at the balcony right at me and smiled. I geeked out so hard. I was giddy the rest of the night. Such a great memory.
Love Tears For Fears. Always have. The epitome of the 80's, ingrained forever in our hearts. What a sound they had!!!
Such an amazing song! I remember when this video played like 10 times a day on MTV, and the song ruled the air waves. I got tired of it after a while, but now, since I haven't heard it in a while, it has hit me again with the power of those amazing vocals, and all the instruments and sounds that are so masterfully blended in. It makes me want to go outside, throw my head back...and SHOUT! (The neighbours hate when I do that!)
These guys were awesome... Had a great sound and messages in their lyrics. Believe they've released new material 😎
Good Lord, they're so good! I loved them then & this still holds up. The 80's music landscape was so experimental & creative and people were so open to it.
My favorite guitar solo ever! No Circus act, no ego...just pure musicality. 😊
This band is INCREDIBLE.
Sowing the Seeds of Love is my fav from them. I think you’ll love it
Sowing the Seeds of Love is another great song by them

As someone who has been through their share of trauma in life, this song will always resonate with me. Only Tears for Fears could write a song about primal scream therapy and have it hit #1 in America. In 1985, no less. Heartbreaking genius.
They were different from everyone else in the '80s. So much more creative. And it isn't just their singles that are great, their albums are outstanding.
Now you've done it!!! This song will be stuck in your head for a LONG time. Every time you walk into a grocery store and see a certain stain remover by the same name, the song will start bouncing around in your cranium all over again!
Very 80s, so good and full of emotions and passion. Those songs had great harmonies and melodies that stuck in your head forever. Comparable songs came from Simple Minds ("Don't you forget about me" or "Alive and Kicking").
This band brings back so many fantastic memories of my high school days. Great band and great choice of songs
Tears For Fears not only has a great name, but they churned-out a lot of great hits in the 80s and many of their lesser-known songs are just as good!
My favorite by Tears for Fears is "Head over heals" ❤️❤️

Did you ever see the comedic literal version of Head Over Heels? It's hilarious.

@Vern Sherris it was a youtuber named Dusto Mcneato. I don't know if youtube took it down due to copyright or not. But Dusto also lampoons Journey, and A-Ha.
The song and the band name both relate to Primal Scream therapy, which they were both fans of, although they later became disillusioned with the creator of the therapy.
And head over heals is a favorite.
One of the most memorable songs of the '80s. Probably on most "Hits of the '80s" collections. They were a great group with a very unique sound. Classic '80s.
One of my favourite bands! Love them. Woman In Chains is great too
Amber, these guys are still making music and going strong. My sister and I are going to see them in June in Charlotte, NC. They are on a huge tour this year! This song was one they put out after spending a lot of time in therapy. They both apparently had a lot of trauma from their childhoods they had to work through and their music was part of their healing process.

I'll be at that show too. :) Crazy ticket prices though. Ugh. I saw them a few years ago in smaller indoor venues for much less. I feel lucky now.

In 83'-84' I was a senior in High School. The Tears for Fears cd "The Hurting" was always in my car. The band was popular, but two years later when "Songs from the Big Chair" came out they were radio gods. While Shout never did it for me lyrically, the music of the last minute saves the song. Good choice, but this band's deep cuts are where they really shine. They pour emotion into every corner.
Tears For Fears were perhaps one of the most influential British bands of the 80's. They had a huge following at one time. Curtis Smith and Roland Orzobal were Tears For Fears..... They are about to release their first album in over 30 years.....
Roland's voice is iconic
Check out some early Tears For Fears....Mad World, Change, and also Woman In Chains is another hit.
I love how Tears for Fears and so many 80s bands really let their Britishness blast through. Check out the band, General Public, if you get a chance.
Yet ANOTHER iconic British band. We ROCK !!
Been waiting for this reaction. Phenomenal song! They just dropped a new album a couple months ago and you should def react to their song "The Tipping Point".
They just released a new album after all these years... and it is amazing!
so so many 80s hits! "THE WORKING HOUR" for reaction such an awesome saxophone solo in this as well. ; )
SHOUT is Brilliant SHOUT is Wonderful , SHOUT is PURE ENERGY )))))))))))))) only 80' S brings that MAGIC
I love the way this song really hits its stride about halfway through and then just goes all out until the end. It starts out so slow but by the last chorus, we’re all rocking out.
So Kurt smith sang the first song you guys reviewed “Everybody want to rule the world” and Roland Orzabal sang the last two song you guys reviewed “ Head over Heals” and “Shout”
Marching bands in Houston, TX wore this out in the 80's!!
“Sowing the Seeds of Love” is the PERFECT marriage of 60s and 90s.
Love tears for fears, another British band to check out is Level 42, the song Something about you. Mark King the lead singer one of the best slap bass players out there. Thanks!!
