      What was so great about them is that they both took "turns" singing lead and that's saying alto because you never saw that with Hall & Oates. This Video was filmed in Toronto, Ontario and keep in mind that Duran Duran, The Police, Wham and even The Backstreet Boys were popular in Canada before they hit the big time in America. They also were one of many Acts who appeared on American Bandstand in the 1980's.

    As a graduate student I spent time with the special collections in the library where they filmed this (Emmanuel College). It was around 2002 or thereabouts, so a good 15 or so years after the video came out. I remember looking around, wondering aloud why it seemed oddly familiar, and -- I kid you not -- the librarian who was helping me rolled her eyes _hard_ and half-shouted in exasperation: "That damned monkey! Took us forever to clean up that mess!"

    I Love Tears For Fears. Many moons ago, whenever I was feeling down, I would put on their album “The Hurting”, sit in my dark bedroom, and just cry. I always felt so much better afterwards. I find their music deeply, powerfully moving. 💜

  • @JCHB322
    @JCHB322 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was one of my favorite videos of theirs because of the humor in it... Roland's crush on the librarian, the cards flying out of the card catalog (a la "Ghostbusters"), The "Bang?" gun, Roland looking confused as the floats up to the 2nd floor of the library (followed by that "Oh, yeah! I'm singing a song here!"), Ian Stanley finally catching the book on take three, Curt kissing the chimp... all of it made for such a fun video to go with a fabulous song!
    Side note: Roland was also trained in classical opera in his youth, which is why his vocals can range all over... from low to super high. I have a French Tears for Fears interview from 1993 (when it was just Roland as TFF) on my channel here on YT... and at the 15:04 mark of that video, you can hear Roland warming up with some operatic vocals! It is amazing!

    My favorite Tears for Fears song. It's just...it's absolute magic. They were part of the soundtrack of my childhood. Their songs were always so emotional, passionate, and sometimes, aspirational. Loved them then. Love them now.

    Everything they did was so well crafted and beautiful. Roland is the lead singer & guitarist and main song writer is supremely gifted. Their songs Mad World, Pale Shelter, Change, Mother’s Talk, Woman in Chains ❤️, Sowing the Seeds, this...so so many terrific songs ...and when the talented Curt left Roland on his own...Roland made a gem of an album called Elemental...with a fabulous 10/10 song called “Break it Down”, honestly the entire album is great. I don’t think TFF ever made a bad song

    So happy to see young people discover and appreciate bands that have been with me since I was 15 in 1983. Roland Orzabal (lead singer on Head Over Heels) and Curt Smith (lead singer on Everybody Wants to Rule the World) split up after their 3rd Beatle-sque album The Seeds of Love in 1989 (listen to the track of the same name, as well as Women In Chains with the soul voice of Oleta Adams and the beats of french drummer Manu Katché). Orzabal went on with 2 albums under the TFF name in the 90s, « Elemental » and « Raoul and the Kings of Spain ». Then they re-united at the beginning of the 2000s with another Beatle-sque album « Everybody loves a happy ending », and are still touring together these days. Check out the video recorded by Curt Smith and his daughter during the confinment, where they played « Mad World », a single from TFF 1st album « The Hurting » back in 1983. Enjoy, man ;)

    On the same album, try "The Working Hour". It was not considered as a hit, but it is one of the most marvelous track I've ever heard in my life.

    This was actually filmed in a Library in Toronto, Ontario. The Librarian is actually a Model. Also this isn't surprising since alot of UK Artists from the early 1980's were popular in Canada before becoming successful in The US. In 1985 they performed this Song to help Dick Clark and American Bandstand celebrate 33 1/3 Years o The Air. It started out in 1952 as Bob Horn's Bandstand then became "American Bandstand" in 1957. Another two folks who also said "thanks" were Nick Rhoades & Simon Lebon who were doing their Outside Project Arcadia. This was a very beautiful thing they did but it was also their way of saying Thanks since Dick Clark had so many UK Artists on the show like them. Madness, ABC, Five Star, Wham and Banarama who made history by being the first and only Girl Group to do Bandstand.

    Dude, you just watched/listened to an all time masterpiece. both visual and audio. This song is so everlasting it outshines a lot of other "greatest hits" of the time that just faded away (*this was not considered a huge hit when released) .
    You will never get tired of listening to that song as it depicts the human condition , our journey through life , being early clueless to looking back on it all and wondering how it all went by so fast.
