No need to lie tell the truth these guy are Great Here's my Fav... sowing the seeds of love...classic High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast D.j.s the man we love the most Could you be, could you be squeaky clean And smash any hope of democracry ? As the headline says youre free to choose Theres egg on your face and mud on your shoes One of these days theyre gonna call it the blues And anything is possible when youre sowing the seeds of love Anything is possible - sowing the seeds of love I spy tears in thier eyes They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention Food goes to waste ! So nice to eat, so nice to taste Politician grannie with your high ideals Have you no idea how the majority feels ? So without love and a promise land Were fools to the rules of a goverment plan Kick out the style ! bring back the jam ! Anything... Sowing the seeds The birds and the bees My girlfriend and me in love Feel the pain Talk about it If youre a worried man - then shout about it Open hearts - feel about it Open minds - think about it Everyone - read about it Everyone - scream about it ! Everyone Everyone - read about it, read about it Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read Chorus ! (mr. england sowing the seeds of love) Time to eat all your words Swallow your pride Open your eyes High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast Every minute of every hour - I love a sunflower And I believe in lovepower, love power, lovepower !!! Sowing the seeds An end to need And the politics of greed With love http://www.youtube.com/wa...tiVFs5_ZTI Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..!

I was just playing their Tears Roll Down retrospective yesterday.
I hope they are still earning royalties and living comfortably from the songs they recorded because they're each little nuggets of life comprehension. ... [Edited 7/31/08 10:32am] | |

Just last week I saw one of the TFF guys, Curt Smith, on one of the late night TV shows.
The song was rather weird compared to TFF, kind of a spare, new agey thing with a female back up singer and a guy playing a big wooden box like a drum. I think there might have been an acoustic guitarist but I can't remember. Just a few people on stage and the song had a high falsetto part to it that didn't work for me. Curt looked old. I love the Sowing the Seeds of Love album, a proper paen to the Beatles. | |

I love TFF. Their reunion album, Everybody Loves a Happy Ending is excellent -- I think it sits comfortably alongside their best albums. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

One of the main reasons why I love Tears for Fears so much is that because when I really little I heard their music. I don't remember where, I would hear it, it could had been my parents leaving the station VH1 while they were cleaning up the house or something but ever since then, everytime I hear Tears for Fears, it brings back great 80's baby memories.
My favorite is "Everybody Wants to Rule the World", that song to me is just the epitome of the 80's. Next fav is "Head over Heels"...love that song.  I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Totally agree. Curt Smiths latest solo album "Halfway Pleased" is pretty good too, even if it borrows a little too much from Radiohead. . |

I love the "Elemental" album. Quite a few great tunes. The one hit, "Break It Down Again" is a classic. Also, the title track and the 2 songs about the TFF breakup, "Fish Out Of Water" and "Goodnight Song" are great. I think he did a tribute to Brian Wilson on this record too. | |
