    They came from abusive homes and most of their early music is about working through trauma. They were both followers of a therapist that practiced scream therapy. This song is about shouting out the pain and frustration...whatever might be causing it...and letting it go.
    It's also about protest. Their songs are rarely straight forwardly about one thing. They frequently weave multiple ideas into a song.

    Here are some interesting interpretations:
    "A lot of people think that 'Shout' is just another song about primal scream theory, continuing the themes of the first album. It is actually more concerned with political protest. It came out in 1984 when a lot of people were still worried about the aftermath of The Cold War and it was basically an encouragement to protest."
    -Roland Orzabal
    "It concerns protest inasmuch as it encourages people not to do things without actually questioning them. People act without thinking because that's just the way things go in society. So it's a general song, about the way the public accepts any old grief which is thrown at them."
    -Curt Smith
    "This song reminds me of my brother who is in prison. Not the chorus parts.
    -'In violent times' stanza makes me think of how some people may sell their own life for fame and fortune. And how the law is black and white. And is not meant for any interpretations. How sometimes, no matter how many 'one track minds' (honest workers) you meet, a lot of convicts kiss them goodbye because they are stuck in their old ways.
    --Next non chorus stanza makes me think of an inmate's parents when they are incarcerated. Sometimes, inmates begin to antagonize their parents. Cold as ice.
    --- Next non chorus stanza makes me think that an inmates parents believe them when they come out and say they've changed but that ends up not being true.
    This is obviously my lone personal stance on the song's lyrics. Not THE interpretation. I like to think of the lyrics this way simply because it reminds me of my idiot brother."

    • @richardgoddard37

    Passionate songs
    Electronic songs
    Meaningful songs with a message.
    Clever pair of lads who I will see live at the Lytham festival in the summer..
    Love it...
    Sowing the seeds...the search for the perfect song and caused them to split...

    Roland Orzabal is a creative genius and produced Oleta Adams’ debut album. She joined them on their (TFF) album The Seeds of Love, and a standout track is their “Woman in Chains”, a remarkable song and a must listen🔥🙏🏽🌈 The song “Shout” is meant as a mantra and was really connected to their following of Arthur Janov’s Primal Scream therapy which both Roland and Curt Smith used to try to help them heal from their troubled home lives as children.

    Supposedly it started off about therapy the singer/ songwriter went through which is primal scream therapy, requiring the patient to scream out for relief. They later then said that it was also more concerning political critique. So it can be viewed generally or personally.

    Tears for Fears were followers of American psychologist Arthur Janov's school of Primal Therapy. This song was inspired by his primal therapy treatment, which worked by getting people to confront their fears by shouting and screaming. The name of the group came from Janov's book Prisoners Of Pain.
    Song writer Roland Orzabal has noted that the song "is actually more concerned with political protest" than the common view that it is about primal scream theory

    It's about dealing with things in the general sense. The primal scream to release all the hurt, anger, pain and all that needs purging from your life for your well being going forward.
    You should listen to some of their non-singles, especially from their first album. Memories fade, Start of the breakdown and Watch me bleed are great ones to start with.

    The meaning of the song by Roland and Curt...
    Not that these interpretations haven't been fun to read, but when it comes to the bands actual interpretation & motivation for this song - you're all wrong.
    A lot of people think that 'Shout' is just another song about primal scream theory, continuing the themes of the first album. It is actually more concerned with political protest. It came out in 1984 when a lot of people were still worried about the aftermath of The Cold War and it was basically an encouragement to protest.
    -Roland Orzabal
    It concerns protest inasmuch as it encourages people not to do things without actually questioning them. People act without thinking because that's just the way things go in society. So it's a general song, about the way the public accepts any old grief which is thrown at them.
    -Curt Smith

    Tears for Fears had so many great songs in the mid 80's and through out the 90's. They are still touring the US in 2022. When they were touring concerts in the US in 1985 they discovered Oleta Adams singing and playing piano in a hotel bar in Kansas City. They asked her to record and tour with her. They helped her record her first album in 1990. This has led her to 4 Grammy's and world acclaim. Great Tears for Fears songs are "Head Over Heels" "Woman In Chains" with Oleta Adams "Sowing The Seeds Of Love" "Break It Down Again". Another great song is from Oleta Adams "Get Here".

    It's about the threat of Nuclear War. The Nuclear Bombs are the things we can do without. The one track minds are the Political and Military leaders building weapons. In the early 1980's the risk of Nuclear War between NATO nations and the Soviet Union was at its highest level. Ronald Reagan scared the hell out of the Soviets and the USSR had went through several leaders in a few years due to their death from age and health. Ironically enough the year this song came out Mikhail Gorbachev became Soviet Premier. The pressure that Reagan put on the USSR accelerated the collapse of there economy. This gave Gorbachev leeway to make internal changes in the Union. Those changes combined with the great relationship Reagan and Gorbachev formed led to several summits and arms treaties. In 1989 the Berlin Wall came down and on Christmas Day 1991 Gorbachev dissolved the Soviet Union into 18 independent nations. The Cold War was over and the world had survived it... Then came 2022... Anyway there's a little history for you that gives context to the song and the times hopefully.

    One of the best bands to come out of the early 80s new wave movement and they had some great songs and are just so good it surprises you at first but the further you go into their catalog you begin to realise this is another band I need to listen to.
    Try Mother Said, Head Over Heels and Sowing the Seeds of Love, their stab at a little Beatles like tune.
    On a separate note, violence Sucks, no matter what kind and/or where. May we have peace, please. 😊

    My father knew a Rolling Stone Music critic and he gave my him this album “Songs from the big chair” in the winter of 1984. Shout was the first song of the album.
    Just from the intro you knewI it was gonna be a hit.
    In fact the entire album was a massive success but to be honest, I like their first album “The Hurting” better.
    You guys should it out.

    This song was actually about therapy that the lead singer had gotten into which was taking everything that bugs the hell out of you and screaming to the top of your lungs all of it to get it out of your system. Ya know what? It works.
