Don't worry.. I've been listening to Shout for almost 40 years, and it will NEVER get old for you...😊
Never!!
So true!
FACTs!! This one and Everybody wants to rule the world. 💃🕺💃🕺
Same! 🙌
Same for me for Head Over Heels. I never get tired of it. I used to play it over and over.
Their first two albums “The Hurting” and “Songs From The Big Chair” are straight up masterpieces 🔥🔥🔥
Shout will go down as one the most iconic songs ever... so many covers and it stands the test of time.
I've always loved their version of Mad World best. Not because it was the original, but because to me it's the most 'mad' sounding...the instruments are all going full tilt and it's a very packed, mad song. Sowing the Seeds of Love is my favorite song by them. I've played it for so many people and I always say 'if you don't like something about this song, wait 15 seconds and there'll be something else.' It's _so much song_ packed into one tune.
This is indeed a great version. I do love the musical break!
I feel similarly about Mad World. The covers are too one-note for me, and don't represent the full range of the song's ideas and feeling.
While I do love Sewing the Seeds of Love, Working Hour is my personal favorite.
Shout is a fine, fine song. Every time you think it can't possibly get better, it does!
Tears for Fears were consistently amazing songwriters. Grew up with their music and they still sound as great now as they did then.
Love TFF (especially Curt who I always thought was sooo cute! LOL)
But yeah, I was an 80s teenager, so really cool to see these songs that felt so timely then, prove themselves to be timeless.
I was in my Freshman year at college and you always heard this song blasting in the dorms.❤️
80s teenager here as well,TFF was always one of my favs. Great choice of songs.😍
He was.
Todd DePue you're not alone when it comes to Curt. He was so beautiful, such a cutie.
What's great about them is they have so many different sounds. They also still sound amazing live. Their new album "The Tipping Point" is great too.
"The Working Hour", "Woman in Chains", "Pale Shelter".
Yes, I bought the new album to support them
I saw them on the Tipping Point tour at Jones Beach Theater, NY and I can say that they’ve still got it.
@@nickavenoso7851 I did too! They were fabulous! Last show of the US Tour! What a gorgeous night it was!
@@StormyDay Yes definitely! Highlight of the show was “Sowing The Seeds Of Love” for me. Roland has still got that voice that sends chills down my spine.
The mark of a really good song like Mad World IS that everyone can hear something different and make something new out it.
That's what I love so much about the original and why the Gary Jules version just never quite hooked me. It's missing the emotional dissonance that gives Mad World so much of its depth and complexity.
One of the best vocal duos of all time.
‘Sewing the Seeds of Love’ a real Beatles-esque anthem. Love it as much now as I ever did. They were really going somewhere with this and were on top of their game as one of the biggest bands in the world, unfortunately it marked the end (for a long while.)
Sowing the Seeds of Love. Masterpiece. Phenomenal. Love all the instruments and their voices!! This and Head Over Heels are my favorites of theirs.
Yes yes these two!!
That "organ sound again" was Ian Stanley's last contribution to TFF after co-writing a lot of the second album.
Spot on with the Beatles reference as regards to Sowing the seeds of love ,I get that feeling everything I listen to it
You picked some real gems there from TFF. Such a timeless group whose music sounds as fresh today as it did when it first came out. I did get to see them live at Wembley Arena in the late 80's and they were just as good as their videos you've just watched. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us all. God bless 🙏
Thank you so much for watching!
TFF are so good ! Even after after their breakup, Roland kept putting out great songs. " Raoul and the Kings of Spain " is a disregarded masterpiece in my opinion and their reunion on " Everybody Loves a Happy Ending " was AWESOME ! Simple Minds is anotherunderrated band I love which went under the radar for 15 years but kept on plowing and made it again !
"Sowing The Seeds Of Love" is the greatest song Lennon/McCartney never wrote. Good picks. 1988-1989 was known as the "2nd Summer Of Love", when '60s "peace & love" came back in fashion in response to a decade of Reaganism - the "Seeds" video was very much a snapshot of that sentiment & is essential viewing for the track.
"Everybody Rules The World" was pretty much the anthem of 1985. That video is what 1985 felt like, in spirit.
Just a brief pause before Bush bombed the Middle East and Clinton Yugoslavia
The song of the 80’s
Criminally underrated guitarist.
The multilayered music is just delightful. And considering the times we live in, so apropos. Everyone wants to rule the world...
"Working Hour" and "Woman In Chains" are good choices for your part two.
Woman in chains is a masterpiece
Head over heels as well :)
Absolutely!
You can't review these guys without listening to Woman In Chains. Vocals by Oleta Adams are amazing.
I'm obsessed with their song Woman in Chains with Oleta Adams... LJ
The Style Council needs to be on your list if you haven’t already covered them. Big boss groove, long hot summer, life at a top people’s health farm, shout to the top, how she threw it all away, my ever changing moods, walls come tumbling down. There’s so many more.
The line is Sowing the seeds of love: kick out the Style bring back The Jam is a reference to The Style Council and Paul Weller’s more political former band The Jam.
OK, I've now added to my bucket list: playing a Stratocaster on top of Durdle Door in Dorset like Roland Orzabal in the Shout video.
What a fantastic duo. They skyrocketed to the top with their Songs from the Big Chair album. So creative and atmospheric. A hallmark of their songs is that they'll skip the last word or two of the chorus and instead jump straight into the verse early. They also made some gorgeous, less well-known jazz-style songs. Tears for Fears are definitely Beatles disciples.
These reactions are superb. Whole songs and videos, intelligent, eloquent and perceptive comments on both the music and the lyrics. A real joy to watch.
Can I suggest you react to some songs by Talk Talk and Simple Minds?
Thank you so much, and absolutely! 😊
Such a fantastic band. Love the first 3 songs but Mad Mad world is my current favourite
As a big fan of Tears For Fears I have SO MANY song recommendations for you. Pale Shelter, Woman In Chains, Bad Man's Song, Advice For The Young At Heart, Break It Down Again, Goodnight Song, Secrets, Closest Thing To Heaven, Secret World, and Last Days On Earth. Then from their latest album I would recommend Break The Man, My Demons, and End Of Night. ❤
I love Tears For Fears. I was a teen in the 80's.
4 amazing songs, love them. both guys have great voices. they have a new album out, new songs too 😃
I was so excited when I saw you were doing 'Mad World's on this! It has been one of my favorite pieces ever since I discovered it was TFF's original song.
The emotional layers, the dissonance in both the chords and the emotional content really makes it something far beyond what it has become.
I just love Tears for Fears. I can't accurately put into words how much I adore them. So yes... very happy you reacted to some of the finest work ! ❤❤
Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️
The TFF rabbit hole is quite deep. Even the later albums, Everybody Loves a Happy Ending (which is very Beatlesesque), and the new one, The Tipping Point, are fabulous sonically. I saw them live 3 times and they are excellent musicians.
Four songs for your part two of the TFF...
1. Woman in Chains
2. Secret World
3. Break it Down
4. Closest Thing to Heaven
Bonus song: The Devil
best way to enjoy "everybody wants to rule the world" is exemplified by singer curt smith in this video, top down on the long road with nowhere in particular to go, radio blasting LOUD. i've driven a similar stretch of so. cal's freeways and it always takes me back 😊
Excellent choice, especially with my favourite, Mad World.
But there is another gem from them..
Woman in chains with Oleta Adams.
Try this, you won´t regret it.
Great choices, you need to do in other videos, Standing on the Corner of the Third World, Badman's Song (Live), Advice for the Young at Heart & Woman in Chains (featuring Oleta Adams)
Yes ☝️
The Seeds Of Love is an amazing album
I was never a huge fan of Tears For Fears when I was young, but listening to them now I really don't know why that was! Brilliant songs with amazing production and vocals.
Same here. I always kind of liked them, but was more into metal back in the 80s. Now in my 50s I've really grown to appreciate them. Just saw them live recently in San Diego. Amazing performance!
Thanks for this Bryson love the choices.makes me wanna go back to the 80's.
Everybody wants to rule the world was filmed It was filmed in Los Angeles, a desert in California and Cabazon.
Shout was filmed at Durdle Door in Dorset,south coast of England not far from their home city of bath in the county of Somerset.
The og of mad world is my fav.
I can see the connection between sowing the seeds and late 60's early 70's beatles.you can see the last song was later than the others.
Thanks for watching! 😊
I knew you were going to love "Shout." It's my favorite Tears For Fear track by a mile. 1980's anthem.
WHEN U HEAR SHOUT LIVE, THE WHOLE CROWD IS ALWAYS SINGING. GREAT LIVE BAND. THEY OPENED FOR HALL AND OATES IN 2017, UNBELIEVABLE CONCERT, CLEVELAND ROCKS!!
Just saw Tears for Fears in concert and they were awesome!!! Their new album The Tipping Point is great. TFF songs you must listen next: Woman in Chain, Pale Shelter, Advice for the Young at Heart. From the new album: The Tipping Point, My Demons, No Small Thing
I love your reactions🥰 Tears For Fears is one of my favorite bands, listen the song ''Pale Shelter''
They are from my home town. Great band. Woman In Chains is a beautiful song.
AMAZING BAND !!! TFF are in my top 10 favourite groups / artists of all time and i listen to tones of music lol. My TFF favourite album is The Hurting and i love the song Pale Shelter. But all of their songs are bloody good. God knows how many hours of my life i have spent listening to TFF. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Curt is just fantastic on that bass guitar. WOW 👌
For part two, you can pick from these songs:
- The Working Hour (my favorite TFF song, but it doesn't have a music video)
- Woman In Chains
- Change
- Break It Down Again
- Laid So Low (Tears Roll Down)
- Mothers Talk
When you get a chance, check out their new album ''The Tipping Point'' that came out in February. It's extraordinary.
TFF is simply amazing. These ‘old’ songs are absolutely timeless. As good as the first time even 40 years later. Roland is a genius!
"Shout" is a classic for a reason ! Angst, instrumentation and lyrics are just ON POINT !
Thank you for expanding and experiencing the past music I grew up with. Tears for Fears are a part of my life I appreciate more than you would ever know.
Great reaction! Tears for Fears is one of my very favorite groups. Their song writing, engineering and production rivals Steely Dan, and that's the ultimate compliment. Other songs to check out: Woman in Chains (jaw dropping), The Working Hour, Elemental, Break It Down Again, Mr. Pessimist, Raoul and the Kings of Spain, and my favorite, Goodnight Song. Their new album is very good (just came out this year); check out the song The Tipping Point. Such an incredible group!
Thank you!
Woman in Chains, Advice for the Young at Heart, Pale Shelter, and anything else from their Songs From the Big Chair album. If you're feeling feisty, watch Oleta Adams' cover of their song, "I Believe" from the Seeds of Love concert era--it's haunting.
Great reactions! Of the four songs you just listened to, my favorite is Sowing the Seeds of Love. I just love Roland’s voice and the passion in his voice in this song.
Thank you!
I love that you watch and react to several videos at a time for the various artist. Tears for fears is one of my favorite duos They are masters at what they do. Their vocals are phenomenal, the instrumentation is done so beautifully.
Thank you for watching!
Watching you rock out to my absolute fave band from the 80’s is pure joy! Viewers can see the feels this music brings to your face. Roland and Kurt are still the best! ❤ It’s fun to watch ppl hear the genius of Roland’s lyrics and melodies along with Kurt’s amazing voice (both of their voices, tbh) LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!
You said you felt Shout in your bones. I first felt it in my bones in 1985 and still feel it in my bones every time I hear it. Thanks for sharing your reaction with us.
Thanks for watching!
Wow! Sowing the Seeds of Love sounds like it came straight off Magical Mystery Tour album. Right out of The Beatles psychedelic song handbook. Nailed it lyrically and musically too.
Watching your TFF's reactions I'm reminded all over again why I fell in love with Head Over Heels and Shout. Already knew that Everybody Wants to Rule the World was an 80's sound masterpiece!
"Woman in Chains", "Advice for the Young At Heart:, and especially, "Power"!
Michael Jackson sampled bassline for 'Every Wants to Rule the World' for 'The Way You Make Me Feel'!
Tears for Fears was 1 of 3 cassettes I bought with my own money way back in the day... the other 2 were Wham and Starship... I'll just age myself
You really should check out ‘Shout’ live with a full choir that they did a few years back. Incredibly powerful. Also, check out the song ‘Raoul and the Kings of Spain’ by Tears For Fears, when Roland went solo under that name. A much under appreciated masterpiece.
TFF for the win! Thanks for doing more. I hope that in your next reaction, you include Pale Shelter and Advice for the Young at Heart among your 4. Music videos for sure and not live versions. Can’t wait to see the next ones.
Thanks for watching! 😁
I miss how we used to dance in the eighties. So upper body and theatrical. That dancing out the window in Mad World is like a time capsule of movement.
Oh yay yay yay you got back to TFF! I knew you’d love them. As a kid I didn’t appreciate “Shout”, maybe because it was overplayed and I didn’t really understand the message behind it. Now when I hear it I get the same feelings you did, especially watching the video with the kids dancing and having a blast. It just brings you joy and makes you let go of your worries. I don’t know if that was an organ, but at a few points I could swear I hear bagpipes. And of course the other three songs are classics as well. You picked good ones to continue with! It’s funny, I never noticed how often they use instrumental breaks until you pointed out. This was fun to watch with you!
My other top song from TFF is “Break It Down Again.” Instrumentally that one kicks my butt every time I listen to it, and the vocals are fantastic.
I love this song and video for Shout. The keyboardist looks like Dave Coulier from Full House. At the end with all the people, I love the kids who sing and the little old lady just doing her thing. My favorite song and vide of theirs.
Also, they are so great live
Sowing The Seeds Of Love went down as one of my favorite songs for many years although my list of favorite songs changes constantly.
I highly recommend “Break It Down Again” and “Woman In Chains” for other videos from them to check out. Enjoy.
I believe and Laid so low (tears roll down) are a couple of my favourites.
YES….. such a great song!!!
Mad World is my favorite by them. It resonates personally for me and I love watch Roland dancing the video.
Instrumental geniuses. So much for the ears but yet you hear all of it and it's a celebration of music.
They were one of my favorite bands during my teens in the early to mid 80's. (I graduated high school 1985). They had a smooth and uplifting sound in music and vocals.
Some other Tears for Fears songs: Pale Shelter, Change, Break it Down, Mother's Talk, The Working Hour.
As always such a good and fun reaction. "Woman in Chains" definitely needs to be in your next bunch of picks.
And maybe one of my personal absolute favorites: "Mothers Talk".
Thank you for covering this band, I love them! Great reaction! 💜🔥I love Pale Shelter, Shout, and Head Over Heels. And Change - great band with so many memories attached! I grew up hearing their Mad World, so it was always weird hearing the covers!
Thank you for watching!
Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes...
Such great lyrics!! 💯👍
I legit think "Shout" is one of the greatest songs of all time, and I'm an old old man. 😀
I still have my 7” vinyl of Shout .. still play it 😁
Oh such memories!! Incredible amazing group. You'll have these fab songs in your head for days! Incredible reaction as always😘 xxx
Thank you!
Yay, thank you, Bryson, been waiting for this! 🤩 My late dad was a massive Beatles fan, and he also adored TFF. He used to say Sowing the Seeds of Love was a track they forgot to put on the Sgt Pepper's album. 😊 Pale Shelter, Mother's Talk, I believe, Woman in Chains, The Tipping Point (one of their most recent ones) would be good choices for the next episode, but their song catalogue is so brilliant, you can select any four of their tunes and won't be disappointed.
Thank you for watching!
How beautiful looking is Curt in this video?? Just …..VERY! he was just such a good looking and “pretty” boy - loved him so much 🥰🥰
I loved your reactions to these videos! TFF are wonderful! Did you know that on Everybody the line "So glad we almost made it, so sad we had to fade it" is a reference to them not wanting to fade out Shout? Found out from Professor of Rock!
Thank you again Bryson -- this gave me so much joy! All four are amazing songs and so different! For me, Everybody wants to rule... is THAT song. I never get tired of it and everytime I hear it, it intensifies whatever I'm feeling that day, but in an uplifting way.
"Woman in Chains" is one I look forward to you discovering.
Thank you for watching!
Every time Mad World came on during after school videos, I was in front of the TV trying to copy that awesome geometric dancing. Yeares later as a clubber it definitely found its way into my dancing
You have to check out their new album The Tipping Point, it is a really great album and shows they still have that magic.
I'm 27 and I live for post punk and new wave! tears for fears is so amazing
You were spot on. Sowing the Seeds of Love is my favourite song of theirs, and it's definitely a Beatles pastiche :)
Great reactions! Head Over Heels, Shout and Rule the World are all from the Songs From the Big Chair album. That goofy album shot is iconic to 80s kids. It's one of those perfect, perfect records. It's a full album experience! Some of the songs run together or "reprise..." It just fits together perfectly. I don't know how reactors avoid listening to albums so they can react to tracks later. If I hear a band/song that I love, I have to get the album. I guess that's a very GenX thing to do. Boomers, too. Ha ha. I'm trying to remember if you had reacted to anything from their new album? If not, The Tipping Point, Break The Man and My Demons are really good! 😘
Thank you! I’ve only heard “The Tipping Point” from the new album, though I didn’t react to it. Loved the track!
@@PancakeMarshmallowDude I was very pleasantly surprised how good The Tipping Point (the title track at least) is after all these years.
As someone already pointed out TFF is one of those musically timeless bands, and for particularly the first three albums, they have had such a strong balance of hooky, thoughtful and powerful songwriting.
It's great to celebrate Tears For Fears with your fresh perspective.
Thanks for reacting to these four awesome Tears for Fears songs! They were unique sounding back in the day and I couldn't get enough of "synthesizer heaven." :-) I saw them in concert in Baltimore back in 1985 on their "Songs From the Big Chair" album tour. If you revisit them in the future, you might enjoy "Change," "Woman in Chains" featuring Oleta Adams, "Break It Down Again" (co-lead singer Curt Smith left from 1991 to 2000, so only Roland Orzabal is singing lead here) and "(Because Freedom Is) No Small Thing" (a recent song from their 2022 album ... turn on the CC/closed captioning to see the lyrics).
Thank you for watching!
So excited you did another Tears for Fears. Glad your enjoying their music
That was pretty cool. For me TFF are the voices and the sound of the 80s . You get s similiar vibe by Simple Minds(Don't you forget about me, Alive and kicking) the sound not the lyrics of "Everybody wants to rule the world" is how the 80s felt - always positive, being curious. The original "Mad World " was crazy with all the surreal sounds and Roland Orzaland's weird dance in the background. The sliw piano versions of that song had a complete different neaning and should be named "Sad World" . 😉
I recommend "Pale Shelter" and a pretty new one "The Tipping Point".
Yeah I was waiting for this ❤️
Your comments are concise, creative and honest. You picked some some of their best tracks. I recommend a part two with songs like 'woman in chains', I believe, Advice for the Young at Heart, Goodnight song...amongst many;)
Thank you!
Great tracks! love those songs and glad you did too.By the way cool editing fading out at the start before the first track kicked in
Thank you so much!!
Good picks here! I'd personally recommend checking out things from either their newest album, "The Tipping Point", or "Elemental" (my favorite one lol)
Great. 4 songs of my favorite band.
The entire album, "The Hurting," in continuity, changed my young life. It was groundbreaking, heartfelt, and spoke to a young generation who realized the world was changing in a negative way.
Great reaction, you've earned a new subscriber!
TFF have so many great songs and eclectic soundscapes, it's hard to recommend just a handful of songs you should check out for part 2 (you may have to do a part 3). Anyway...her goes:
Woman In Chains
Mother's Talk
Break It Down Again
Change
Just missing out, but highly commended:
Advice For The Young At Heart
Pale Shelter
Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you so much!!
You totally nailed it, as usual and picked up on a lot of what they were going for. Sowing was a deliberate pastiche and nod to psychedelic Beatles vibes, like I am The Walrus, whilst Shout was a protest song that timed with nuclear missiles being brought into the U.K. in the 80s and Mad World is all about the Primal Scream therapy and how the effects of parenting abuse and traumatise children into adulthood and create bad mental health. A lot have relevance in different ways and social commentary for sure. And yeah, Curt plays a mean bass, whilst Manny Elias is a genius on those drums. Excellent observations and love for one of the UKs best bands. Loved it. You rock. Thanks.
Thank you so much for watching!
I love these guys so much, aren't they awesome? Thank you for this wonderful distraction, I needed it like you'll never know. Was in an accident today, and in a lot of pain. ❤
I’m so sorry to hear that! Sending you well wishes. ❤️
New to your channel...Love the idea of listening to more than one song from an artist. That makes so much more sense so you can get a better 'feel' for what they are all about. Great reactions!
Thank you!!
Beautiful. Thank you so much for the memories. A good one for your next listen/view - Change. Amazing song❤
Thank you for watching!
Still love this song and I remember skating to it at the roller rink when I was younger
