I can’t get enough of this song. I play it over and over and over and over! I saw you guys in Tucson, best damn concert I think I ever been to and it was a small venue. You guys never cease to amaze me!🎯🎯🎯🎯🫵🏼👍🏼
These guys, Curt and Roland, are not of this Earth. Their talent and music is beyond masterful. It’s other-worldly. This is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful song! 👌
Funny, I actually thought that same thing the first time I listened to The Hurting album a long time ago. Never thought in 2022 that feeling would be at least quadrupled by what--IMO--is their best and most complete album yet. Every single song nails it in some way. Insane how good these guys are this. And they seem to make it look easy.
LOVE TFF! I still LOVE ALL TFF music. The music will be ever so smooth in our ears for all times. Early TFF music to current - all so unique and will be loved forever. Thank you Roland and Curt for all the music you guys have gifted humanity with!!!🥰💕🥰💕🥰💕🥰💕🥰💕🥰
For as long as I can remember, my teens maybe, these guys have been the soundtrack to my life. Now they're finally back and my god they are giving it some real substance. This song tears through your heart and soul & doesn't wanna let go. Wow incredible lyrics, harmonies and melody. A powerhouse of a tune. This is very rare these days. Thankyou Curt and Roland - don't ever stop.
There has always been something to their lyrics that I connected to and to hear this song in 2022 and remember all those emotions that they created back in the 80s is a complete rush of both nostalgia and optimism for what they can bring to today’s musical scene. I’ll add my thanks to Roland and Curt - timeless and seamless music that evokes so much emotion.
Curt & Roland... I cannot express the gratitude i feel for you both for having made my life a better experience. Being a source of happiness, inspiration, support and comfort. You two are eternal and occupy a big and essential part in the history of music, culture and, specially, many lives all over Earth. Simply... Thank you 🤍
well they certainly have taken the world by storm. once again and in my opion that is no small thing.the Tipping point I just thought Wow you now, and I said at the time I am really looking forward to hearing just what is coming up next,and well hear it is, these guys deliver my candy,and hold a candle when Ime down in that Mine,Freedom indeed
I first met them in their teens, in a Band called Graduate, and told Roland, that Curt and himself would go on to do bigger and better things musically, not long after, Tears For Fears were Born, I have been an avid fan from then to this day, and your beautiful words, echo mine, Thank you.
@@colindevereux1074 Never met them but same here - loved them since the day I heard Elvis Should Play Ska on (I think) the Annie Nightingale show! Incredible talent.
I'll be honest: 'No Small Thing' surprised me quite a bit. It's something different, even with its 60-70s country flavour in the main riff. It's iridescent, multifaceted and swaying in its progression and gradually grows to literally explode in the second half. These two gentlemen never cease to surprise us.
Sure not bad at all is it, now I am going to cross the border here and ask them what do think guys, that is if you can afford too buy it. cover in dust and then looking out for coughites. freedom . after how many years they came back with this .
If they were a young band they'd be playing it....sadly for many bands, age brings an indifference by the music press. The albums very good and certainly up there with some of the top albums released that year.
@@rael1999 I agree 100% on that. I think the problem is if you're not Bruce Springsteen or Bob Dylan then no one is invested in your growth and evolution. So much less press and attention. The album is very deep and cerebral. Seems like the demographic buying most of the music prefers more superficial pop. Such a shame. Will anyone ever give it the proper attention it deserves. I hope so!
This is definitely a song the whole world needs right now. Tears For Fears have always been both ahead of their time, as well as making music about current situations.
There's nothing about this song that is ahead of their time, in fact it sounds exactly like a mumford and sons or lumineers song from 2010, even down to the heys and hos.
Tears for Fears was before their time. And now, they are right on time. I believe that they are timeless. Sincerely, Carly grateful for such thoughtful beautifully created songs.
"When I am forty years older, wrinkled and wise." Funny how the same band that spoke to me as a teenager now speaks to me as a white-haired guy in late middle age. My 15-year-old self listened to this band. It has been forty years, and here I am again.
it helps to see them both white haired past middle age, out there for the past 7 months touring again. and KILLING IT. I'm glad they’re home now and can rest. the tour this year was perfect. there is no other word. perfect. Thank you Roland and Curt for giving us The Tipping Point tour!
I get the best of both worlds ....grew up listening to them through the 80's ....and now growing old listening to them again in the 21st century ....well done boys 👏👏👏
Sometimes you don’t appreciate something until later in life. Their songs definitely bring me back to that time but only recently have I sat and listened intently.
Best band ever. Still killing it after all of these years. Interesting music - different enough to capture our ears; yet, wise enough to remind of us of everything that is beautiful. Tears for Fears: deserves exactly what they've given us: something perfect.
Long time TFF fan here at aged 50 years old. I grew up with your music and in a way it defined and shaped parts of me. I just watched and listened to No Small Thing for the first time tonight. It is without a doubt one of the most amazing things I've seen and heard for a very long time. I don't know how you manage it Curt and Roland, but please, PLEASE keep doing what you do.
They are truly one of the greatest pop duos of our generation, sad that current artists need armies of song doctors & writers just to make #1 hits. The world of music, hits mean nothing, only the soul of the artform matters. Can't wait for "TTP"!
As much as I liked their solo stuff, the two together are way greater than the sum of their parts. Curt pointed this out as one of the reasons he re-embraced Tears for Fears after his absence.
At first I was like wow, not a typical TFF song. Then as it plays, I’m like oh yeah, there they are, the group I have loved forever. Love the freshness & message it tells. Can’t wait for the rest of the album.
Well you can't have them keeping making "SFTBC" everytime otherwise they would be no different than rehash acts like "The Weeknd" that are stuck in the 80s. They needed to evolve to the changing times & evolve they did!! Can't wait for The Tipping Point!!
Thank you Tears for Fears, you've come full circle in my life, since you released Break it Down Again it has remained one of my favorite songs ever, and now you go and do this masterpiece with such a powerful video. I am now in my 40s and your music inspires me, and has inspired me throughout my life.
Fell in love with these guys in the early 80's, they have been a thread in my life since then. If you are able to catch a show, you'll see a diverse crowd of all ages and a lot of gentle civility. They remain relevant in a time of throwaway entertainment.
This song transmits really big messages which the entire world needs at all. Tears For Fears is a band which undoubtedly inspire and spread meaningful speeches with their songs. Both, Curt and Roland, are part from an endless legacy in music history. Thank you, boys.
I can't ever express how much these two have done for me with their music. I love you guys so much! You're music is incredible and we need you and it so much in this generation.
Such a huge difference from what we hear on the radio these days. Intelligence and real emotion has gone from "pop" music. Great to hear something that makes me listen closely and watch carefully.
I am a 56 year old man. Loved many Tears for fears songs right from the beginning. The intro I thought oh no they have gone all cheesy country? But the song evolves into a powerhouse. This one one just broke me😂. What a powerful song and message and video. If you do no like this song you have no soul! Another masterpiece of song writing here ! Lyrics are about not letting the child element inside of you go and not to fall in to all the crap that is being preached to us on a daily basis from media etc etc. Lots of metaphors in the Lyrics. That’s the way I love song quality writing. Just Awesome!
Same I heard it and thought oh geez it's country (as I hate it lol) but it does pick up and the lyrics are so powerful today. It's not new wave power pop which is their strong point but I like this song. It's not country as a whole just the beginning and it's not country just flavour of country. I can't do pure country or rap at all haha 😅
@@retro_wanderluster9962 Love many Tears for Fears songs. I have noticed many of their songs are what I call building songs. They start of low key and build up to something else. Take this one and Shout for example. Like yourself can’t stand Country apart from a handful of songs. Or rap.
Not country, more like roots or american intro. They must have been listening to the lumineers. Good for them. The song would have been fine if they kept it slow too. Either way is good.
Wow, wow, wow!!! This album is going to be something really special. Song writing par excellence. Its been a long wait indeed but ' that sound ' is back big time and the wisdom of your years is shining through once again. Congratulations to all involved and thanks for waiting to bring us this stunning journey of your lives.
0:46 to 0:51 - that little musical changeover (with the butterfly taking off)... No one does that except Tears For Fears. Unique, genre-bending and exquisite as always. "We punish the child... for flying too high.. for rushing like the wind...", oh my God, yes!
Tears for Fears have been a part of my life since I was a kid. Im 47. Their lyrics, their voice, their music is timeless. Some of it makes me cry. Thank you Tears for Fears for making me happy and giving me an escape all these years ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Roland and Curt ... This is what music is all about. You did it guys!!!. Two songs that immediately got into my system. Tears for Fears back as never before. Great great job!!!
PERFECT example of AGING with your FAVORITE BAND! OH MY HEART!!! I listened in my 20s... Now on a threshold of my 50s - another glorious decade to experience. And here comes TfF !! Out of the blue. As aged as I am and still relevant
Tears in my eyes every time I listen to this song. The beauty and love in this song melts with the musical journey it delivers into a crescendo. Thank you Roland and Curt for making this song.
More brilliance from the Maestros of British music. Curt & Roland have a wellspring of great songs and experiences to draw from to bring us this beautiful song! They are as relevant today as they were when they burst onto the world stage with The Hurting!
Stunning, love the slow build up in the song. Powerful message and video. Roland and Curt have done it again, an instant classic, if the rest of the album is as good as this and the tipping point, we are in for a real treat
This is a song that is difficult to explain. When first heard I was uncertain, but now it ranks as one of my all time TFF favourites. It is unlike something you will hear often, it is a song that is enriched with time, it starts simple and then reaches an orgasmic crescendo. It has a depth of soul and character you will struggle to find in any modern music. I am truly grateful. Thanks TFF, JZ.
100% agree with you. I was uncertain at first. But now I think this is one of the best songs they have composed. So relevant and Anthemic. Can’t stop playing this song. I love music in general with a great tune and depth. To me this is the perfect combination.
Man I love this band! I’m so happy to hear new music from the legends! Timeless band!🙏♥️👌😎👍this is definitely the time and the type of music we all need to hear today!
Que música deliciosa de se ouvir! Obrigada TFF por continuarem marcando nossas vidas! Assim como o Roland disse, não é sobre o quão famosa essa música ficará, mas sim a mensagem q ela passa para quem a ouvir ❤️
Já ouvi varias vezes essa música, só as imagem é um visual incrível apesar das tragédias mas mensagem que eu consegui traduzir é: Nosso planeta não é pouca coisas, sejamos felizes com tudo isso sem guerras e batalhas, vamos viver a vida e observar suas belezas, isso pode ser passageiro, vamos admirar.
Absolutely brilliant and very bold. You chose to use your platform again, this time to shout in a warm way that you have not and will not turn your back on humanity. You looked it straight in the face and spoke the truth. Trusting your true and caring supporters will see that immediately. Thank you.
Uma das melhores músicas que ouvi nos últimos anos. Letra linda, música potente. Toda vez que escuto, me emociono. Não tinha visto o videoclipe até então. Mais uma vez me emocionei. Simplesmente impecável!
I grew up in the 70s and 80s listening to everything from Joy Division to Prince, but Tears For Fears is my personal favorite. Their music is just music. It hits you right where you need it. That’s why to me it’s timeless and wholesome. I’m so glad Roland and Curt are making music together again.
Tive que segurar as lágrimas quando li o relato do Roland sobre se basearem nas lembranças da infância pra compor "No Small Thing", e o Curt falando sobre a sensação de liberdade e isso ser a zona de conforto musical deles. E nem foi preciso os dois aparecerem no clipe, pois somente as vozes deles são a minha zona de conforto musical desde a infância (principalmente a do Orzabal, junto com a do Chris Cornell). Se a intenção deles era impactar as pessoas, conseguiram atingir a meta com sucesso. E vida longa à Roland Orzabal e Curt Smith 👏🏻❤️🤘🏻
Beautiful story telling with subtext. Tricked into thinking you may have deviated away, that this was a simple love song with the acoustic guitar different to most TFF songs then - wow. Stunning video, where we are in the world right now, sometimes it’s easy to forget. This is a powerful reminder and the kind of video that leaves you awestricken. I need to watch it many more times to take the the words of the song in. I so hope the album brings you the No.1 you so deserve next year. Good luck!
It's like they have no choice, everything they do has a touch of epicness about it. Teras for Fears, even at their most introspective, are gloriously epic. Big Music
I thought the ELAHE was fantastic!! but they have surpassed the bar that they raised with ELAHE Roland’s vocals just send me out into space .. such a powerful richness to his voice … I absolutely love his cool vibe
I like some Tears for Fears, but I think this speaks to me on a level that no other songs of theirs has. And it was just a few notes into the song that I realized. The lyrics just confirmed the initial gut reaction. Lovely.
When I listened to "The Tipping Point" a few weeks ago, I thought "there you guys are back to top form". It was one of the best musical experiences I had in a long, long time. Now you come up with THIS and it's still better. The deceiving, totally atypical (for TFF) country-style bit at the beginning, which then grows into this paroxysmal bit ... Guys, your new music is one of the best things to happen in this f***ed-up time.
Wow! Probably the best music video that Tears for Fears have ever put out. Some of the kinetic energy of 'Break It Down Again' mixed with some of the beautiful black-and-white imagery of 'Woman in Chains.'
Top 5 band of all time in my book!
I couldn't agree more!
Totally agree
I can’t get enough of this song. I play it over and over and over and over! I saw you guys in Tucson, best damn concert I think I ever been to and it was a small venue. You guys never cease to amaze me!🎯🎯🎯🎯🫵🏼👍🏼
Tears for Fears never dissapoints!
These guys, Curt and Roland, are not of this Earth. Their talent and music is beyond masterful. It’s other-worldly. This is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful song! 👌
Can I get an AMEN up all in here?
@@alisonross1300 Yes you can AMEN!

Facts. Very well said. I didn't think they could ever surprise me anymore at this point. But this is on another level.
They must have been listening to the lumineers!
Raoul is the one behind their sound
BEAUTIFUL video! GREAT Song and Band! Curt and Roland are Pure Talent! Come Tour the USA again, please!
I LOVE this album. Every fan should buy it. Radio stations should be playing it!

Its sad that alot of kids today rather listen to bootleg MJ (The Weeknd) than listen to artists that accually lived through the 80s!

i agree with you
Agreed
What do you mean before their time?
Never stop making music. You guys have always been the most worldly lyricists. Your music is more than good, it's important.
"When I am forty years older, wrinkled and wise."
Funny how the same band that spoke to me as a teenager now speaks to me as a white-haired guy in late middle age. My 15-year-old self listened to this band. It has been forty years, and here I am again.
Same here, buddy.
funny how time flies
I was 13 when I started listening and am now 51 and so thankful I'm alive during the Tears For Fears era of the universe.
Beautiful and truthfully composed.
it helps to see them both white haired past middle age, out there for the past 7 months touring again. and KILLING IT.
I'm glad they’re home now and can rest. the tour this year was perfect. there is no other word. perfect. Thank you Roland and Curt for giving us The Tipping Point tour!
Freedom is no small thing ........ let’s fight for it. Beautiful and thought provoking ♥️
Saw this fantastic band July 17th in Austin. This song is the first song for the concert. Amazing 👏
I'm a bit speechless. This is just beautiful. Well done, boys. Pumped to see you on the road again and get this new record. God Bless You
The entire album should be listed as the greatest album of the past decade.
How true. I just listened to the Tipping point. Whoah. The best album in a while. So diverse, mystical...they are real musicians. Thank you
Yeah this whole album is blowing my mind. ❤️
Hmmm we'll see. So far, it is alright. Definitely not the greatest.
Really, all I want right now is give Roland and Curt a big hug each. A hug of gratitude
When they opened the show with this last night, I was totally blown away.
These guys deserve credit for doing meaningful songs with great lyrics and excellent music....Classic.
Exactly!!!
You don't think the song is going to end up where it does based on how it starts. It takes a huge left turn, and I love it
its tricky, i like that...
So sad I didn’t get to experience Tears for Fears in their 80s prime but so blessed to have this now!!! Thank you 🙏
Yeah I feel that big time. Their music always hits close to home now matter whats going on
I get the best of both worlds ....grew up listening to them through the 80's ....and now growing old listening to them again in the 21st century ....well done boys 👏👏👏
I'm just in love !!!
Sometimes you don’t appreciate something until later in life. Their songs definitely bring me back to that time but only recently have I sat and listened intently.
I thought the same thing, but now I am grateful I can go to their 2022 tour!!
Best band ever. Still killing it after all of these years. Interesting music - different enough to capture our ears; yet, wise enough to remind of us of everything that is beautiful. Tears for Fears: deserves exactly what they've given us: something perfect.
It's crazy when hearing their old stuff and listening to it so much to see how they released this masterpeice
What a beautiful song that depicts an important message to all. Tears for Fears never loses its touch and talent! Love this song! 😊❤️
The depth of that voice 😱 + perfect melody + important message + beautiful music video...total win
.....that they still HAVEN'T even been NOMINATED for the Hall Of Fame over a DECADE since they were first ELIGIBLE, is just a(nother) TRAVESTY.....
literally the greatest musical duo in modern human history. REAL.
@@ogam5 agreed.
Never have agreed more with anything in my life
Unbelievable artists, songwriters and musicians. Have loved them from day 1. ❤😊🤘🏻
Exactly!!!
How is it possible this band can trigger so much love? Perhaps the most loved band in years. We love you guys, thank you for all the good music!
This is what happens when Roland and Curt make what's in their heart. Music that's real, brilliant and all their own. Great song!
Grandes de la música.
Long time TFF fan here at aged 50 years old. I grew up with your music and in a way it defined and shaped parts of me. I just watched and listened to No Small Thing for the first time tonight. It is without a doubt one of the most amazing things I've seen and heard for a very long time. I don't know how you manage it Curt and Roland, but please, PLEASE keep doing what you do.
Milleracer. I am 55 and been a fan since 1982 when I was 15..
Freedom is definitely no small thing! Especially when it is coming under huge attack now from the State!!! Power to the People!!! 🙂🌞🌻💛🙏
Great song. My fav off the new album along with Rivers of Mercy
What amazing progression. Simply wow. They don't make 'em like this anymore..
AMAZING song. I swear, Roland and Curt have the Midas touch on songs and songwriting. Absolutely brilliant!

I just read the lyrics for that song, Wow!
The slow build to the end is the coolest part of the song.

Roland and Curt ... This is what music is all about. You did it guys!!!. Two songs that immediately got into my system. Tears for Fears back as never before. Great great job!!!
This album is a masterpiece now, and in 50 years, it will still be listened to and considered a masterpiece!
Amazing performance last night in AC. Was with my father as well. Super awesome ❤
Whoa, from apparently just a country song to a deep existential message all of a sudden! That was strong!
Shout Shout let it all out, this is No Small Thing to be talking about, come on, I'm talking to you come on. Great song and video. Cheers.
HELL YEAH!!! We need more of this in the world right now. What a powerful message. This is true art
PERFECT example of AGING with your FAVORITE BAND!
OH MY HEART!!!
I listened in my 20s...
Now on a threshold of my 50s - another glorious decade to experience.
And here comes TfF !! Out of the blue. As aged as I am and still relevant
This song combines a love song to Roland’s new wife, Emily, who probably saved him, and builds in both imagery and message. Stunningly beautiful.
WOW. Perfectly personifies the saying, 'May you live in interesting times'.
Indeed, we do.
Tears in my eyes every time I listen to this song.
The beauty and love in this song melts with the musical journey it delivers into a crescendo.
Thank you Roland and Curt for making this song.
More brilliance from the Maestros of British music. Curt & Roland have a wellspring of great songs and experiences to draw from to bring us this beautiful song! They are as relevant today as they were when they burst onto the world stage with The Hurting!
Growing up with their first three records made me the person I am today! Still play them to this very day!
@@ohnothimagen224 Thank you for the awesome comment! All the best!!! - Lee
@@leepasbrig130 ❤️ You're welcome!
Got some country folk music right here!
I Love These Guys
Me too
Most definitely been playing them since early high school days still a big fan of them
I really liked The Tipping Point, and was already beyond stoked for the new album - but this is breathtaking. Wow.
Stunning, love the slow build up in the song. Powerful message and video. Roland and Curt have done it again, an instant classic, if the rest of the album is as good as this and the tipping point, we are in for a real treat
This is a song that is difficult to explain. When first heard I was uncertain, but now it ranks as one of my all time TFF favourites. It is unlike something you will hear often, it is a song that is enriched with time, it starts simple and then reaches an orgasmic crescendo. It has a depth of soul and character you will struggle to find in any modern music. I am truly grateful. Thanks TFF, JZ.
100% agree with you. I was uncertain at first. But now I think this is one of the best songs they have composed. So relevant and Anthemic. Can’t stop playing this song. I love music in general with a great tune and depth. To me this is the perfect combination.
Same here now it's one I can't stop listening to especially the intro!
@@CHESEABUN nicely said, thank you
Beatiful song!! I can’t wait for the whole album
I always loved tears for fears, now I love more, more. Beautiful, theirs songs talking on my heart
More than the beautiful song, the message
Man I love this band! I’m so happy to hear new music from the legends! Timeless band!🙏♥️👌😎👍this is definitely the time and the type of music we all need to hear today!
Que música deliciosa de se ouvir! Obrigada TFF por continuarem marcando nossas vidas!
Assim como o Roland disse, não é sobre o quão famosa essa música ficará, mas sim a mensagem q ela passa para quem a ouvir ❤️
TFF é como uma Tatuagem na alma da gente... Marcada para sempre em nós que os amamos... TFF para sempre...
@@jenisonmoraes2753 That's true...
Brasil tem maior número e fãs do TFF, não tem um vídeo no youtube deles, sem um BR comentando s2
Já ouvi varias vezes essa música, só as imagem é um visual incrível apesar das tragédias mas mensagem que eu consegui traduzir é:
Nosso planeta não é pouca coisas, sejamos felizes com tudo isso sem guerras e batalhas, vamos viver a vida e observar suas belezas, isso pode ser passageiro, vamos admirar.
👉🐵
Speechless, I'm teary-eyed, excited and eternally grateful for this hug to the soul.
Absolutely brilliant and very bold. You chose to use your platform again, this time to shout in a warm way that you have not and will not turn your back on humanity. You looked it straight in the face and spoke the truth. Trusting your true and caring supporters will see that immediately. Thank you.
Uma das melhores músicas que ouvi nos últimos anos. Letra linda, música potente. Toda vez que escuto, me emociono. Não tinha visto o videoclipe até então. Mais uma vez me emocionei. Simplesmente impecável!
So absolutely amazing!
I grew up in the 70s and 80s listening to everything from Joy Division to Prince, but Tears For Fears is my personal favorite. Their music is just music. It hits you right where you need it. That’s why to me it’s timeless and wholesome. I’m so glad Roland and Curt are making music together again.
Tive que segurar as lágrimas quando li o relato do Roland sobre se basearem nas lembranças da infância pra compor "No Small Thing", e o Curt falando sobre a sensação de liberdade e isso ser a zona de conforto musical deles. E nem foi preciso os dois aparecerem no clipe, pois somente as vozes deles são a minha zona de conforto musical desde a infância (principalmente a do Orzabal, junto com a do Chris Cornell).
Se a intenção deles era impactar as pessoas, conseguiram atingir a meta com sucesso. E vida longa à Roland Orzabal e Curt Smith 👏🏻❤️🤘🏻
Absolutely stunning, shivered all along
Beautiful story telling with subtext. Tricked into thinking you may have deviated away, that this was a simple love song with the acoustic guitar different to most TFF songs then - wow. Stunning video, where we are in the world right now, sometimes it’s easy to forget. This is a powerful reminder and the kind of video that leaves you awestricken. I need to watch it many more times to take the the words of the song in. I so hope the album brings you the No.1 you so deserve next year. Good luck!
I started crying at the very beginning, then I remembered Sowing the Seeds of Love. Messages are important more than ever!
It's like they have no choice, everything they do has a touch of epicness about it. Teras for Fears, even at their most introspective, are gloriously epic. Big Music
Rolands voice just soothes my soul❤️
I thought the ELAHE was fantastic!!
but they have surpassed the bar that they raised with ELAHE
Roland’s vocals just send me out into space .. such a powerful
richness to his voice … I absolutely love his cool vibe
Wow I’m speechless!! Words can’t describe how this song makes me feel. Amazing!!
Fantastic!!! in times of weak and disposable music, the good music is back! Excellent The album of the year!
God bless Tears for Fears another masterpiece for 2022!!!
I saw them live 40 years ago.
They’re coming to my home town.
Already got my tickets…can’t wait!
Never heard this one before,,,it is the best 🎶
I like some Tears for Fears, but I think this speaks to me on a level that no other songs of theirs has. And it was just a few notes into the song that I realized. The lyrics just confirmed the initial gut reaction. Lovely.
When I listened to "The Tipping Point" a few weeks ago, I thought "there you guys are back to top form". It was one of the best musical experiences I had in a long, long time. Now you come up with THIS and it's still better. The deceiving, totally atypical (for TFF) country-style bit at the beginning, which then grows into this paroxysmal bit ... Guys, your new music is one of the best things to happen in this f***ed-up time.
The video was insanely magnificent!!!
Wow! Tears for Fears. Ain't they the gift that keeps on giving. Fantastic!
Saw them last night in concert. A-mazing!! So humble and they sounded outstanding.
Wow! Probably the best music video that Tears for Fears have ever put out. Some of the kinetic energy of 'Break It Down Again' mixed with some of the beautiful black-and-white imagery of 'Woman in Chains.'
