I’M NOT CUTE I’M A BAD MOFO! - ตลก
*Michael Jackson loved this song and it's bassline so much he used the bassline in 'The Way You Make Me Feel' in 1987.*
This is true
Never knew this! Thanks!
When I was a teenager in the ‘80s I didn’t really think one way or another about Tears for Fears. As I’ve gotten older I started paying attention to what they are actually saying; this is a really powerful song.
I’m pretty sure they were in their twenties at this time. Curt Smith (the singer) has always had kind of a baby face. Even now that he’s much older, you can still kinda see it. Love that you reacted to this. Much ❤️ & ✌🏻 always. 😊
@Jennifer It's amazing how you didn't think of Tears For Fears in the 80's since they were a Huge Group back then.
Also about coming out as gay ..
@@xoxxobob61 That's not what Jennifer said, though! Not that she didn't _think_ of them, more that she just didn't think about Tears for Fears one way or the other - ie had no _strong_ opinion about the band back then. Quite possibly because as teenagers we often tend to get swept up in the _melody_ of well-known songs and sing along with the lyrics without actually pausing to interpret their _meaning._
Another good example might be _Don't You Want Me_ by the Human League. Like many, I blithely sang along to this song as a teenager, not once realising it's a deeply unpleasant song - not about love at all, but about coercive control. 😐
@@221b-Maker-Street Understood!
This is one of the all-time best summer time driving songs.
They have quite a few great songs. Shout is one of them. I would also highly recommend checking out a recent live version of this. They still sound great.
Tears for Fears were such a big sound in the 80s.
Glad you found them.
Great song 💕
Great band 👌
This was in my mid-20s. "Nothing ever lasts forever" had not sunk in. At 62 now it has.
I was 12 in the queue for school dinners when I first heard this incredible song. Loved it ever since. 'Head over heels' is another fantastic one by them.
These guys were in their 20’s at the time- 80’s. They just put another album out!!!
When i was 15 this song hit the radio. It spoke to me in ways I had never had happen from music. It became a life long fav. I am glad to see it still be enjoyed and the meaning still be understood. Most impressive Sir.
They are a English group, and they were realy big in England, their songs and voices are brilliant still played in every night club and pub ect brings back alot of memories from the eighties.
I remember when these guys first hit the charts and I was blown away by their voices, they were so unique and didn't sound like anything else at the time. They have so many good songs that others have mentioned. If you are going down the 80s new wave, pop, or synth track, I'm here for it and us 80s teens can give you all the greatest recommendations!!
Do you remember "Change" or "Pale Shelter" which came out before they became so ridicously famous with this Song?
@@xoxxobob61 OMG, YES I had forgot about those, thanks for reminding me, adding to my Playlist this minute cause all I have are casettes which I have not looked at in years...lol
I'm 42 so this is considered an anthem for my generation
5th grade!
These guys were a staple on the radio growing up. Love them. I love watching your reactions. You seriously have the perfect radio/video voice.
I call this the Best Non-Beatle Song ever written ... Killer Bass Line!

Tear For Fears are legends of the 80s music scene. Also check out: Shout, Head Over Heels, Woman In Chains, Mad World, Sowing The Seeds of Love, Pale Shelter. This song was in one of my favorite 80s teen movies Real Genius with the incomparable Val Kilmer!
Oh how I love Tears for Fears! We were all young like this back in the day. Wish I had known it wouldn’t last forever too.
P. S. His voice kinda reminds me of Rick Astley. Wow I miss the 80s
they still sound the same today- they just released a new album in February. :)
I recommend *Donny Osmond* from the 70's. He was a friend of MJ's. Donny's cover of *Go Away Little Girl* was #1 on the Pop chart in Sept. 1971. It was 2 months before his 14th birthday.
He and his brothers *The Osmonds* also had a hit with *One Bad Apple* when it hit #1 in January 1971 and stayed there for 5 weeks.
The Osmonds and The Jackson 5 became friends, especially Michael and Donny because they were only a year apart in age and so much younger than most others in the music industry at the time. They stayed friends until Michael's death. Michael went concentrated more on his musical career as they got older while Donny preferred to make creating a family a priority over a music career. Donny still performed but at the time he didn't want to spend so much of his time away from the family he wanted.
I knew these guys personally. From my home town of Bath in the UK. They went to a different school than i did but we used to hang out in the city center. They started out calling themselves Victoria Park, then The Graduate....then hit the big time as Tears for Fears. Not my style of music but it has grown on me over the years. I was a big Peter Gabriel/Genesis fan back then. Prog rock was king for me!
one of the bands from my teen yrs.they formed in 81 in bath,somerset which is south west of england.a very historic city known for it's roman baths.they were school friends and write their own music.curt smith was the ponytail one roland orzabal the guitar player.genre is new wave,pop rock,synth-pop.they recently released a new album the first in 18yrs
mad world
pale shelter
shout
head over heels
sowing the seeds of love
woman in chains
I am going on 69 yrs and I still remember these older songs and when I listen to them it takes me back to a time that I wish I could go back to. Sweet
Are you AN Jl ISH Doug's? I was? Viber's silken Pioneer's pioneer. Soccer's what white dead was wakeout on piny. Soccer songs the songs that I signed that I was called pony soccer songs
If when it was a guaranteed thing, it would say that it was a certified a certified party p. A. M t y soccer s o a k e r song s o n g and I was singing that pink soccer song
The dates love the pine and soccer songs, too. Especially the certified cause you know , it's like a toyota depend on the horror question mark😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Roman TIC S they had a song called token token in your asleep. I write question mark that was a certified certified. Soccer song that piney soccer certified party soccer soccer
I was 20 in 1985. From memory Tears For Fears, Spandau Ballet, Duran Duran and Ultravox were big at the time. U2 were still good and Simple Minds had Don’t You Forget About Me in the charts. Live Aid happened that summer, and Simply Red released Picture Book late in the year. Terence Trent D’Arby hit the charts around that time but I can’t remember if it was 85.
Great reaction. You should check out 'Pale Shelter' by them. BTW, these were two young guys from Bath, in England, who were introverts and loners, but became friends at like age 13 or something. Got into music together, started writing songs. They were probably in their early 20s when they did this video.
Curt Smith was 24 in 1985. The main leads are from Great Britain---not sure about the rest of the band.
I heard this song about a month ago in a fabric store (of all places) and it reminded me of the 80's. I'd forgotten about it--now I play it daily. Thanks for this wise reaction.
Nice to see young people enjoying these old songs. BTW, I remember when gas was 78 cents. It was a big shock the 1st time it went over a dollar 💵
such a great, nostalgic song. and a group where they traded off on lead singer making for a unique but cohesive sound. Thanks for this!
‘Look at those gas prices’ lol 😆
One of my favorite bands of the 80's, playing the cassette tape 🤣, in the afternoon leaving work
Dude... I amost forgot about these guys.. they were a part of the 2nd British invasion of rock. I consider them a top 40 band in pop/softer rock. Another band was Duran Duran, my favorite song was the Wild Boys ( has a trippy video) or hungry like the wolf.
Favorite song of all time.
The '80s was not my favorite decade, but there were a few groups who made it worthwhile, and this was one of them. I like that you made the same Michael Jackson similarity I detected. I believe it's with his song "The Way You Make Me Feel," which you could pretty much sing along with the intro for this one, lol. Another Tears For Fears song you might want to check out is "Head Over Heels." As always, fantastic reaction filled with great observations and fun commentary. Thanks!
Michael Jackson actually ripped off their bass line from this song but TFF being Proper British Lads didn't Sue him for Copyrights. I do imagine he did pay them for it though.
In my 30’s then so yeah, I’m old as dirt now (69) but still LOVE this tune as much as MJ did ❤🥰🥰….Thank you for your reaction to this classic.
Your reactions to Queen are great. You have learned to open you're mind and experience more of what's out there. With that said you MUST do a reaction to Pentatonix cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. It is the epitome of "Less is more" no instruments only voices, dynamics, emotions and talent. You will LOVE it.

I have bought gas at 11 cents a gallon in 1965 when stations used to have price wars, it stayed at 32 cent a gallon for years.
I was right there with ya, Brother. ✌
Hey man i just wanted to say that i really enjoy watching your content! You literally just popped up in my recommended and i really enjoy your passion, your quality and your seriously enjoyable personality 😁 keep up the good work man and be aware that i am now addicted to your videos haha
:D thanks for the comment ! Happy you enjoyed the videos lol the pressure is on now 😅
Love this band!
Leaving a suggestion.
One thing leads to another-The Fixx.
You're welcome in advance.
That was the theme song of my high school days.
Yes🔥☮️💜
The Fixx is one of my top 10. VERY power band at a very powerful time. Had the honor to see them once. I've never been the same since :)
They're in their 60's now, and sound better than ever. you can find a live concert of them as they are right now on YT, it's pretty damn amazing!
Funny you say that! MJ sampled the bassline for 'The Way You Make Me Feel'!
Lol thought I was hearing things for a second there
This song came out more than 2 years earlier than Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel", fyi :)
I have a new group for you. LOVERBOY -Turn Me Loose and Working for the Weekend. .
Tears for Fears has some great songs. Great reaction as always
I remember this as a summer song of my youth. Great memories
These song reminds me of being young. I think of being in my early 20’s..and the Summertime. 💕
Saw them on their 2022 tour. Immensely talented duo.
It’s never too late to do a lot more - until it’s too late, do it whilst you’re still alive folks! Xx
I initially came here for your Jinjer reactions, and then lo and behold it's one of the greatest pop delights of the 80s. Love it.
Two of my favorite songs they did was Mad World, then Shout. I really think you would like them.
I have several boxes full of vinyl from the 60s through to 90s - best time is to get some snacks and as glass or two of wine and just play whatever. Then there are the 45s. 60s to 80s brought a lot of fantastic music. I would like you to check out Supertramp's album Sound of the Century - Particularly Rudy's on a Train to Nowhere and Hide in your Shell. x
Tears for Fears is one of my favorite bands that i grew up with. Try Icehouse. I think you will like them, too.
Hey Blunt.... I haven't been online for awhile but happy to see that you are still pumping out videos. Wife is looking a bit worn and torn though. lol I had never heard of these guys until I bought my teenage daughter a Tears For Fears cassette for her birthday. Before I gave it to her and while she was in school, I lit a doober and sat on the couch and hit play. Oh my goodness, what a journey I went on. Even though my doober days are over, I can still go on a journey listening to their music. Take care and be well. Peace.
🤣🤣😂😂 my wife is a beauty !
@@TooBlunt Oh, she definitely is! I only suggested that she's looking a bit worn and torn. I have often heard that in some marriages, one partner might put the other up on a pedestal. You are the first person I have ever seen that actually did it. 🤣 Peace, my friend....
They have a ton of great songs. Glad you enjoyed seem. Shout, Head 9ver Heals, and Sowing the Seeds of Love are all fantastic, and we're all popular. Deeper cuts are great as well. They were definitely trying to get a message across while making amazing music.
Areosmith ( started in 1974 and still going, had a live album in 2015) for harder rock and blues. Songs: my big 10 inch, Janine's got a gun, dream on, Dude( looks like a lady). You can go deep with these guys, also Steven Tyler has the same range as Freddy Mercury...
80’s…..the best….no joke.❤️🎼❤️
M. Jackson lifted the beat here for one of his hits.....
Even though I'm a soul music guy I love this song and it always takes me back to my childhood in the 80s
The music from the 80's was all amazing. I wish we could have really good music again. Based on talent and meaning.
Ahhh you are reacting to one of my all time favorite bands. I'm dating myself I know, but I had their tapes (yes, I said tapes lol) and listened to them alllllll the time. I'm sure you've heard the remakes of their song Mad World. I've never seen a reactor react to them before. Ahhh I just love them! Both Curt (the singer in this song) and Roland (playing guitar) formed the band and they were both 24 in this video.
They were 24 when this came out in 85... My all time favorite song...
Oh man this was the best duo out there,lots of great songs
The "married with a lack of vision" is metaphorical IMO, I believe it really means married TO a lack of vision i.e. drifting, aimless, etc. This track is from their album Songs from the Big Chair. Hears another great song from it;
th-cam.com/video/Ye7FKc1JQe4/w-d-xo.html
Lol. The gas prices. Gas was 90 cents when I started driving. I really enjoyed this band back in the day. Thanks for the review.
They probally where in their 20's back in the 80s :) It was in my teen years ... Tears For Fears made MANY great songs back then ... Check out the song "Shout"
One of the greatest songs ever created ❤
Welcome to your life, there’s no turning back……..so perfect!
Yes ‼️‼️‼️
Tears for Fears...flashback heaven
🔥🔥🔥💥
You should check out their song Mad World, after you watch that than you need to check out two different great covers of that song by Gary Jules and Puddles Pity Party. Both artist offer a new spin on the great song and are great covers, but it is always great to listen to the original version first, but I highly recommend all 3 versions of the song
Well, the song does say "nothing ever lasts forever" so they were telling us something by showing us that gas price. They knew.😉
And about petrol well especially petrol as they are English, but yeah .
great band, so many great songs. the 2 front men here both sing . depends on their song. main singer here has a lighter voice, their song "shout" the other singer is main vocalist, its stronger. but i love their voices, as do most people, thats why they were big, still are, new album this year is amazing.
I enjoy listening to your commentary and your reactions. Please continue.
Suggestions for other Tears For Fears songs: Shout, Mad World, Mother's Talk
Check out their new album - The Tipping Point
Nice spot on the cost of fuel! haha, yes I remember in the UK when this song came out, petrol was about 30p per litre now It's 190p.
According to Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson loved this song so much, he borrowed the bass line for "The Way You Make Me Feel," a couple years later.
I was 15 at the time, now 54 music was so good then not so much now.
DUDE , WERE YOU BORN 35 YEARS TO LATE ? LOVE FROM GEORGIA
Lol I think so
Anthem of the 80's
When this song came out, we were paying about .89 cents per gallon around here. That would definitely have to be California at that price. YES I was alive when we had cheap gas lol
You should try their Shout next.
🎶💗💃👏💃👏💗🎶
Ya should hear their song "Change" 🤗
This was a little before Michael Jackson I believe (as far as newer Michael) he may in fact had been inspired by T4F as far as beat because it definitely has an MJ vibe to it.
Song of the 80’s
Tears for Fears also did Mad World. Love that song.
If you listen to the first verse it's also maybe a little subtle but also speaking about how people in the name of Freedom or pleasure do things that hurt the Earth. The line turn your back on Mother Nature so it's definitely a trifecta message have a point don't live frivolously not caring about the damage you're doing or the time you're wasting I also feel like that line while the walls come crumbling down is not just talking about aging but also civilization and the environment just going bad it's like even back then we knew what was going on we knew there would be problems but that's how it goes when people just want to have fun and be spontaneous with Reckless abandon if that makes sense such a banger.
Yup, MJ "stole" this bass line for The Way You Make Me Feel which was released two years later. Apparently it was consented by TFF tho. Great reaction BTW!
i recommend you react to :
*Tears For Fears - Mad World (Official Music Video)*
You gotta do "Shout" by them. Their best hit!!!
One of my favorite groups and they have some really good material you should listen too also! those beats were the sound of the time and they were still very young artists back then! You should listen to Sowing in the seeds and Pale shelter,There is also a great song called Woman in chains which was written when the movement against women being abused finally was out in the open and well we all know this is still happening today right!
These guys broke up for years and got back together and touring again with a new and great album called “ Tipping Point.” Legends is all I can say…go down this rabbit hole if you can….
"Say that you'll never, never, never, never need it...." To me, that's arms race angst, of which there was much in those days. Memory's a funny thing--I miss the 80s, especially all the people that were alive then that aren't anymore (like my mother)--but now we know how it turned out. The Cold War was a very worrisome thing at the time. I'm trying to remember--I think 1985 was pre-Gorbachev. And that's probably gas in CA--in IN in 1985, it was more like 85 cents/gallon.
_Please react to_ : Tears For Fears - Mad World (Official Music Video)
your channel kicks major ass brother.
Tears For Fears/Head Over Heels STUDIO VERSION
I was 12 when that song came out! Good band
God I love this song!!!!!!
I agree with some others here, "Shout" next! : )
Not poppy or popular, but TFF had an album called The Hurting. I love that album. Memories Fade and Mad Word to the title song; it’s a much deeper darker album
I was 15 years old... this was a BOP
curt smith is the 12 year old lol bassist and lead vocals for this song and a few other great ones, dude is awesome. check out mad world too, also him. hell, tangentially related, if ya got nothing to do watch all episodes of the tv show psych and the 3 movies. curts in a couple episodes/movies as a guest. also just a great show. oh and co-star is jamaican so you'll totally like it based on that, right?
Lmao interesting. Ill have to check it out when I find the time. It I don’t like it but im coming right to you
This song is so...GQ smooth.
The Way You Make Me Feel by MJ is basically the same beat as this song which came out 2 years before MJ's song.
This is a group from the U.K. 🎼🎹
In the day, I'd buy a magazine called Smash Hits and they would talk about the song and lyrics included so you could sing along when on the radio. Happy Days.
