Music video by Tears For Fears performing Laid So Low (Tears Roll Down). (C) 1989 PolyGram Video International 
Видеоклипы
I animated and directed this video all these years ago and only looked back at it now, I made it using watercolour paper reversed out so the panther was blue then turned red etc, the rest was coloured chalk on black paper. for the shoot I had a one day shoot with Roland in a studio in Battersea and he was really great very enthusiastic about the whole video and really gave a great performance which makes it . We filmed him sitting on a turntable to get the 360 degree moves. I only wanted head and shoulders so that was effective. Some of his image we filmed reflected in mylar a silver foil material to get the guitar wobbly bits.Then the whole live action we printed out onto cells back painted and xeroxed then re shot on a rostrum camera. This was all analogue old school techniques prior to digital. Now I direct kids animation shows in Cg but miss the hands on work seeing this reminded me of the fun in the process back then. memo must do more hand made stuff in this age of AI ...Paul Donnellon director
Thanks for the insight on your work on this. Always loved the dreamlike imagery on this. The video is on pair with Roland's epic vocal performance and has been one of my favorite tff song and video since i first watched it in my teens. Also it has passed the test of time incredibly well, so congratulations.
Fascinating-gotta love the old school techniques when it really was about invention and creation. Well done sir!
Wow, that is a great insight for this beautifull clip, I always loved it!
If you made this video, let me tell you that you are a fucking genius, a master❤ Greetings from chile
When was filmed in 1991 or 1992?
it’s a crime that this song isn’t on spotify
Spotify SUCKS. RUclips all the way!
@spotify please we need this song!!
Effectivement pas sur spotify et bien dommage
I agree at all❗ I got crazy to find it
Spotify is trash anyways. RUclips, so much better
The fact that this isn't on Spotify is criminal.
Amazon too
My mother had suffered strong depression since when i was in her belly.
My father was rarely at home.
I grew up alone with many inferiority complexes - was a very shy and bullied boy - no brothers or sisters.
My mother was sick and violent - physical violence with slaps and shouting and mental violence - think so little of me - no consideration or respect of one's needs.
My refuge was music - this song helped me a lot - i found strength to escape and make my own life.
Today i have 2 boys and i do my best to give them everything they need : simply love and care.
A big hug to all those who had difficult childhood

I would call this their most underrated song. Pretty much only the fans remember it, yet i think its has one of Roland’s best vocal performances ever, as well as some of his best lyrics.
I cannot agree enough. After sitting through the bushfires in Australia and watching and working as a terrified essential worker through a worldwide pandemic and having my dad nearly ripped from life across eighteen months, this song feels like a sermon on clinging to humanity to me and acknowledging the cycles of life, death, destruction and rebirth. Such beautiful music, and such beautiful art, so prophetic, touching, brilliant. It grows on me.
And those wonderful, unexpected, chord changes just after first and third lines of every verse.
This song is a masterpiece 🙏🏼❤️🔥
Absolutely agree, and adding an excellent video-work ✨ Such a classic by now (although it remains a cult piece).
Fantastic track. One of my favourites from them.
This one is huge. Terribly underrated.
Massive. Amazing.
This song is a classic example of Roland Orzabal being criminally underrated as a guitarist.
🙂
Top
👍
Yes,I agree
Yeah, his solos always have a strong melodic content. He chooses his notes carefully to craft an iconic and memorable solo. It’s never just some mindless shredding to show off, like many guitarists fall for.
Still gives me goosebumps 30 years later
has it really been 30 years goodness me still timeless classic better get used to those goosebumps, now that they are back with there new album, to which is very impressive. I am sure that you would agree.
@@michaelgwyndavies2827 the new album is phenomenal, i wish they kept going
@@michaelgwyndavies2827 thats the truth mt friend tears for fears is timeless
@@n0kturna1 hey you didn.t they with one or two tracks that were not on the Album, damn I have just listened to the Working hour, no mistakes made there,
Everything is perfect in this song: rythm, words, melody, guitar solo, even the videoclip… The 80s… so many talented artists!
Yes, perfectly right. 👍👍👍👍
Yes ! very very intense !
Los 90, exactamente 1992
unbelievable how roland uses his voice, goes straight into your soul
Absolutely! Is this your favorite song?
I keep listening this band constantly since I was 15 ... I'm 50.
you have a great taste!
I love too much this Band since 1984! Now I'm 58! Orzabal is a Fantastic Singer!
Nothing wrong with that pal.
Me since I was 12..almost 47...
@@onethreefiveeye Same here, and I am now 47.
when we cry without sound...where the tears roll down...real masterpiece..one of the best band ever
😥
😎🥰👍
Such a criminally underrated masterpiece. I just finished singing along at the top of my lungs
Por q subestimada?
@@martinezegt5433 hardly ever does it get a mention when someone talks about the band and their history
@@Grybop si es verdad y para mi es una de las mejores canciones junto con elemental y shout ..en si esta banda no es muy reconocida. Una lastima como tambien otra banda poco valorada es talk talk y ami me encanta
@@martinezegt5433Tears si fue conocido en los 80 y 90 pero en los 2000 su popularidad empezó a disminuir mucho hasta casi caer en el olvido
Felizmente volvieron con otro álbum el año pasado
"Into that void of silence, where we cry without sound". In my opinion, their best song♥️
I don't quite get why this has hardly ever been played live. It's a great song and deserves high recognition in their catalogue.
"And when your mothers' violence, sends your soul underground". Powerful, and resonates for me.
I feel you
Something you carry through life.
Indeed
Thank you dad for showing me the amazing songs from Tears for fears, btw this is the best song in history ❤️
This is probably one of my favourite Tears for Fears songs, just a shame it never graced an album, should really have been on Elemental.
Yeah I'm astonished this didn't get the acclaim it deserved. But hey it's a fickle business
*LAID SO LOW (Lyrics)*
Chewed the bone down too low
Got fed on tea and sympathy
Blew the sail like the wind
I wish you were my enemy
I was humble for you
What a fool I've been to have
Laid so low -- for so long -- so low
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Drew the blade way too slow
Was shackled by your honesty
Made a mess I, guess I, should have known
That life was lust and liberty
Not a chance mutation
Or the last temptation
Laid, so low -- for so long -- so low
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Спасибо за текст 4:22
A hidden gem, 3.1 million views, shameful!! the King of underrated tunes.
One of the best TFF song for sure.
In my view, their finest moment, and probably on my top 10 list of favorite songs ever.
Same
Roland's voice is glorious
Added to hypnotic bass, crying lead guitar and interesting percussion. Superb!
agree with you！
すごいよね～♥
and oldskool honderd procent
Always 👍👌
Who's with me on the new single??!! Out now!!
we need this kind of music, this is MUSIC
Incredible tune. Of at the great 80's bands, Tears For Fears still manage to be fresh, their sound has aged very well they'll never be forgotten
they had become one of my favorite bands ever! much better than many artists nowadays. they are timeless, i'm really proud and happy for knowing their music.
+Monalisa Cavalcante same for me :) every now and then I found out about one of their songs and it moves so much ! like this one ! :)
@@samrugbyman89 Roland is a genius !
This was 92, and they're still performing
So tranquil those drums and instruments in tune
Timeless masterpiece..
This was another top 20 hit for Tears For Fears, peaking at number 17 in 1991. The first single released after Curt had left. Great song, very underrated and one that hasnt to my knowledge ever been played much live which is a pity.
It was released in 1992 not 1991, the rest is correct though.
Has it ever been played live anywhere, I can’t find it 😢 such a pity like you said
@@nokinyc it's a great pity. I don't know why it's been virtually forgotten about. I know the video is well quite frankly poor and has been named in a few worst music videos list but the song is excellent.
I think this was a new song to be included on the greatest hits album. It would have been easy for Roland to call it a day after Curt left, instead he gave us this gem. Love this band and happy they are back together. One of the defining bands of the 80's.
Fue en el 1992❤❤❤
Quem.foi jovem.ou adolescente nas decadas de 1980/90 e ja curtia o Tears for Fears nessa época da like.
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 important part in the history of music, culture and, specially, many lives all over Earth.
Simply... thank you.
perfect said!! they deserve all the love in the world!! i want to share the band TesseracT !! will blow your mind!! check them out!!
Tears for fears as big as none.
At the top, as they always have been.The place they deserve ❤️
bassline is sublime...
Amazing music talent, Roland Orzabal!!
One of the best song ever recorded by the TFF! The melody, lyrics, and rhythm is so immense! It's timeless! 🤟🙋💃
Listening to this with high quality headphones is priceless, you just have to close your eyes and let your imagination run wild
A forgotten classic
Tears ForEVER!!
Epic and Timeless , amazing lyrics and Roland at his best
Thank you Roland !
I love the guitar at 3:35, that in itself is a masterpiece.
Quite possibly my favourite song EVER
Chewed the bone down too low
Got fed on tea and sympathy
Blew the sail like the wind
I wish you were my enemy
I was humble for you
What a fool I've been to have
Laid so low for so long
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And where your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Drew the blade way too slow

Made a mess, I guess I have should have known
That life was lust and liberty
Not a chance mutation or the last temptation
Laid so low for so long, so low
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And where your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
I love this group
_KrImZoN _ obrigado por postar a letra
Its a beautiful song
Tears For fears 😍😍😍
thanks for the beautiful lyrics of a beautiful song
I can't stop listen! My heart still in the 80th forever!
Roland Orzabal est un génie!!!
The harmony is mezmerizing
Hard to describe the talent but when it´s there it is there, in the utter beauty of the composition.
Roland, I can't explain what I feel when I hear your powerful and beautiful voice.
❤️ You are my most precious sunflower 🌻
Please, put on Spotify!!!! ❤
Por que raios essa música (essa versão) não existe no Spotify pelo amor de Deus!
Concordo, chega ser uma blasfemea.
@@joaopaulosilva9160 😢😢😢😂😂😂
Né isso! Essa versão é bem melhor.
@@PabloPerez-ed9gp Eu também não acreditei ...Esse som lindo pacas e não tem no Spotify
Tbm queria saber!
Roland is a genious
Just a english comment written by a french person that wanted to say that this song is freakin awesome ! Still love this after 2 years
ABSOLUTELY wonderful.
So endearing.
So 80s, pure class.
Secondo me la migliore canzone di questo gruppo !!!
Just stunning. Roland's voice & that guitar!!
masterpiece
This song gives me ghoosebumps omg. So sad I wasn't born to live in the 80's... :'( Best music ever !!
I really appreciate Tears for Fears' entire oeuvre. The band only received the appreciation it deserves much later as one of the best bands of the eighties and early nineties. This song is a favorite of the fans, and even more underrated than the band itself. Fantastic song: tightly produced, beautiful melody line, fantastic sung by Roland, great guitar work and after more than thirty years the song still stands as a rock.
it's a pleasure listening to Tears For Fears
ESSA BANDA NAO É DESTE PLANETA!!!! ELA É UMA BANDA MAIS QUE DIFERENTE,MAIS QUE GENIAL!!!!FENOMENAL!!!!!
I really miss discovering amazing music on MTV.
In those darkest days when the tears roll down sometimes without sound. At least there is music and creation. There is always the self. Keep going.
I love this song so much, my favorite one of tears for fears, really... So many memories...
Everything is in balance, everything harmonious and in continuous flow. On top you have amazing vocal and melodic line.
What a group top of their game for years ....
Roland's voice,wonderful!!😘
21.137 views???? (at this moment) WHAT A SHAME!!!!! This music is a masterpiece!!!! Wake up, world!!!
MARCELO DE ASSIS. yeah i agree.
:( yeah T-T
Too be fair it is from 30 years ago
@@rufuswood6793 So...?
.. and how apt that the song is called Tears Roll Down ... the curtain for TEARS for Fears is ROLLing DOWN for the phase with Curt Smith as part of the band ... so sad....
One of the best songs on tears for fears
Top tune indeed, way ahead of it's time.
I have never been a big TFF fan, but this song is one of the ten best songs EVER written!
Other songs from that top 10 includes True faith (New order), Comfortably numb (Pink floyd), Calling all stations (Genesis), Running up that hill (Kate Bush), A little respect (Erasure), Being boiled (Human league)
Love this song
Timeless perfection .... the ENTIRE TFF collection ... 💙
Timeless Masterpiece
best song ever from the tears,for me,nothing more to say,im 50 now,thanks......btw,they do no bad song for me,only classics,wish the 80s back,but who dont
Essa é prá quem tem ouvidos exigentes. Cultura e bom gosto!!
CONCORDO EM GÊNERO NUMERO E GRAU
Verdd, como eu também kk.
É nois!!! Muiito bom gosto p.tudo,quem.curte só os melhores!!
Verdade
Concordo, tem que ter muito bom gosto.
I love the mournful chords during the verses.. hairs at the back of the neck moments.. The driving rhythms and profound lyrics make it a multi-layered work of wondrousness!
Great music, Roland, Curt !
What an incredible voice...!!!
This is not one song. This is the song
I LOVE THIS SONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG !
His Voice is the Best
in this World
I love this song is a masterpiece I'm glad there new music is coming soon

Very underrated song :)
Unbelievable great song, maybe the one of the best songs ever from tears for fears.
Sinking in a different world when hearing this ❤️🩹
Love, love, love this song
*nostalgia total - essa música me faz lembrar das dificuldades que passei com minha mãe, na minha fase da adolescência, hoje ela não está aqui, mas vencemos!*
Gratidão
Puxa vida amigo sinto muito pela sua mãe, nós dois temos a mesma historia infelizmente a minha me deixou também 😢😢😢
I LOVE THIS SONG. 😀😀😀
the electric guitar parts are not from this world,came exactly at the right way,fantastic
Depois de gravarem Songs from the big chair, em 1985, so voltaram a gravar em 1989, The seeds of love! Numa entrevista, ja em 89, um jornalista perguntou porque a demora e o anonimato da banda por 4 anos, Roland respondeu: Melhor o silencio do que a mesmice.
Amigo, ¿también fan de Prefab Sprout???' Yo me considero el fan más grande de Prefab Sprout and Tears for Fears! Es extraño encontrar a alguien que esté interesado por ambas bandas.
Saludos

Si amigo! When love breacks down, es un estupendo hit! Tears for fears, Prefab Sprout, Tompson twins, e todas las bandas pop Britanicas. Me gusta mucho el nome Prefab Sprout, pero Tears for fears es mi banda predileta. Gracias amigo. Forever good music.
Prefab Sprout Forever good music!
I carry on my cellphone the complete discography of both bands. Saludos, amigo!
You got a good taste my friend! Saludos .
