NEW Tears For Fears - "Ready To Start"

Tears For Fears’ 2004 album Everybody Loves A Happy Ending found Curt Smith rejoining Roland Orzabal after an acrimonious decade apart. Since then, a series of reunion shows, reissues, and covers/samples by pop stars like Katy Perry and Kanye West have led to renewed interest in the influential new wave group. Now Smith and Orzabal have taken a break from recording a new LP to share an unlikely synth pop cover of Arcade Fire’s “Ready To Start.” Check it out below.

Curt Smith also has a new solo album called Deceptively Heavy.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Funny, you posted this thread on the same day TFF released a new cover song, Hot Chip's "And I Was a Boy from School":
