My God I love this guys I love tears for fears and the tipping point it's probably one of my favorite albums in top 10 thank you Roland and curt you nailed it this album is masterpiece

Great to see Roland and Curt back together, writing great music again.

A number 2 album in the UK, a number 8 album in the US, a top 10 album in most countries... This hunger for real music says a lot about the current state of the industry. Welcome back, the album's amazing !

The Renaissance of a great band , and two genuine musicians and close friends.

Tears for Fears were one of the truly hugely influential bands of the 80's.... And still sound good today.... Both talented songwriters and musicians.....

Great to see them both still going so strong, I’m a teenager of the 80’s & still in love with the music of that era, my homeland Aussie bands & the great tunes out of the UK. The 80’s rocks on.

Such an amazing band. So great to see these guys back. Blows me away.

Curt and Roland.. thanks for your amazing songs! Much love from the Netherlands ❤

I was so young when they were hitting their prime.....but in my teen years their music was so influential to me because the lyrics were REAL! I grew up with their music and now Im so glad theyve reunited and now a new album. I'm loving the My Demons its my favourite from the Tipping Point!!

I hope you had a good time. I saw them in Columbia, MD (06/19/22) and they sounded great. Songs from the Tipping Point sound great live and the classics sound great as well. The guy’s voices are in rare form and the band is tight as a drum. I had a ball and loved their set list. Woman in Chains, Badman’s Song, and of course, Shout which closed the show brought a lot of energy. As the guys stated in the BBC interview, the range in age was all over the place. Everyone, seemingly had a ball. It was like seeing old friends again. I was in the 10th grade when the Hurting was released, graduated from high school when SFTBC came out, and just about to graduate from college during release of the SOL album. Heck, I was just getting married when Elemental was released. Now, here I am middle aged and divorced when the Tipping Point is released. So, the fellas have been integral to my life in many phases.

Ive been binge watching their music videos and re-discovering their music. I remember thinking at the end of watching the videos that these guys REALLY made great music. They had some really ear grabbing production and great harmony. I haven't seen these two since those music videos of the 80s and 90s. It really made me smile to see them here and to see them looking well.

❤ Roland's talking and singing voice! Missed hearing it! 🌷 👍 💞

Saw them live in San Diego last night. They were amazing! The new and the old alike..just like the audience!

I’m an enormous fan of these two remarkable artists. Their music during the MTV 80s made a huge impact on me. I’ve never heard anything like them. Incredibly unique sound. This interview was a real treat for those of us that grew up with their music. Blessings! 🙏🏾

The best group in the world With u2, dépêche mode and more.

These guys deserve every bit of credit :) glad to see them back. will listen to the album for sure

Born in the mid 90s. But my dad had these guys on record. Amazing band. And they seem very thoughtful and humble talking. Talking about learning to work with the new industry and taking a step away to focus on themselves and family for a w while but coming back. Great story of these guys

One of the first proper conserts I went to as a teenager was the Songs from the Big Chair tour, in Oslo in oktober 1985. By that time I was already a huge fan, from The Hurting. They made some of the best pop songs of the 80's. Part of the soundtrack to my youth. Fantastic band.

I grew up listening to these guys since 1988 when I was 8 years old back in Mexico when I was pretty poor and spoke no english whatsoever Fast forward 35 years later and now I’m about to see them live for the first time in my life this coming August You cannot begin to imagine my excitement😳

I love their music, and somehow listening to their calm and intelligent dialogue makes me an even greater fan

Was checking for songs from Tears for Fears and discovered these guys have reunited. How happy am I? Yay.

i have been a tears for fears fan since day 1 in the 80s, here in 2022- still a huge fan thank you both for a new album. we are happy.

Magic music, magic song writing, magic duo.

Their sophistication and sincerity always impressed me every bit as much as their talent. They’re one of my favorite bands. A desert island pick for sure.

TFF has been my fave band since the 80's. They are amazing. I've been so lucky to see them twice in my life. Ny most recent time was 2022 in Charlotte. I hope i can see them again!!!

This songs always takes me back to the good ole days of being a teen. 80's were the best...

Their music became so much bigger than their indiv selves they had to rediscover themselves again... their music is genuinely from the soul... amazing growth in their writing and expressing with their music. I watched them live in Virginia Beach on 7/7/2023.... defies expectations.

Oh my word! What a handsome man Curt Smith became! Love these guys.

Kudos to these guys for not compromising to the current production lackeys

Glad to see them as happy, successful dads. Glad they got back together, as it looks like they are really enjoying it.
