    What other 80's era bands should we look at? I know most of my channel has focused on 90's era bands....We've got some good one's already in the can, ready to release...

      How about 1️⃣ hit wonder hair metal act Autograph (said hit was 'Turn Up The Radio' from their 1984 debut 'Sign in Please'). Well they did open for Van Halen that year so good for them. Of course they had the requisite rotating lineups and breakups.

Even the video itself has that warm, beautifully sunny atmosphere to it that just shines of the 80s, being a kid and enjoying those long summer days during school super break.

    Proper musicians and Ive always loved the arrangement of Sowing The Seeds. Maybe a rip off but STILL you do not hear many pop songs written with such creativity. It adds depth and a shitload more interest to a song.

    Pretty unfair and harsh words for Smith. Every band has that one member, sometimes two if big enough group, that sits at least a little bit in the leader spot. Shouldn’t lessen the contributions of the other members. The Roland Orzabal only, greatest hits for the Tears for Fears moniker didn’t help that at all.
    Oh and Curt’s guest appearance in “Psych” is what sealed in the rest of my fandom of theirs.

    Without a doubt one of the most underrated 1980’s Bands! So so important in the bigger picture of music they don’t get nearly enough respect as a band like U2 which is a true shame (Sewing the Seeds of love as a album is simply brilliant on every level it’s the best Beetle’s homage ever constructed

      I think they’re great together. However, elemental is my personal favorite TFF album. And of the duo I’ve always preferred Roland’s voice.

    yeah i remember when they started, the first two albums, the level of musical innovation and craftmanship. 20something they were, almost underground, while being just pop, and everybody still knows the famous tracks, children too, thank god they still exist

    @jcoltrane8976 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Me and My Big Ideas is a masterpiece of heartbreak. Still think it’s about Orzabal’s breakup with Smith. Smith was essential to TFFs sound and, quite frankly, he was Orzabal’s muse.

    Interesting about Curt's juvenile trouble, Dave Gahan from Depeche Mode had a juvenile record as well. I'll always love Tears for Fears.

    For me they are one of the greatest bands ever.
    Very intelligent guys with a lots of problems in their childhood, very sympathic characters and their music since "Seeds" is the reincarnation of the Beatles.
    They are just great and I love them ❤

    I have all ways loved this band, since the early 80's! I was fortunate to see them live back in 2010 at a small venue, no seating just standing.. Must have been 400-500 fans, it was awesome, the best concert I have ever been too!!! Now fast forward to this year, we saw TFF in Charlotte, NC. This time wayyy more fans, in the thousands!! They put on a great concert and to my surprise. Garbage was a good opening act too!!!! TFF forever!
