    Aileen, 'Tears for Fears' are a band from the U.K. they formed in 1980 and had many hits through the '80s into the '90s and beyond. Songs which I recommend by them are:
    "Mad World",
    "Memories Fade",
    "Change",
    "Ideas as Opiates",
    "Pale Shelter",
    "Watch Me Bleed",
    "Shout",
    "Head Over Heels",
    "Sowing the Seeds of Love",
    "The Way You Are".
    There are many more but these are good ones to continue with.

    Fun fact, we have a speech therapist to thank for the wonderful voice of the singer, as a kid he had a really serious stutter, and his therapy included singing lessons to learn better control of his diaphragm, this is where he (the singer) discovered that he enjoyed singing and actually sounded pretty darn good, and... he did not stutter during singing.
    Over the years he got better and better at singing and learned to control his stutter thnx to that, and eventually it gave us this amazing band for the ages with songs that stand the test of time.

    Another great band from a great era of music. This song was also played at the end of the 1985 movie "Real Genius". As mentioned below, I'll second the "Shout" and "Head Over Heels" recommendations.

    90% of the girls I knew in high school, ‘82 - ‘86, Absolutely love this song. I think MTV played it about 1000 times. Back in the good days before technology. Girls with big hair and summer fun.

    You're right, their voices are unmistakable. Check out their song "Shout", then check out Disturbed's cover of it as well.

    One of the big bands I can remember from my early- to mid-teenage years in the 80's with several hits to their name. Shout, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Mad World, Sowing the Seeds of Love and more. And very distinctive. You definitely know it's them you're hearing if you've ever heard them before.

    Tears for Fears is a duo. The guitarist is the writer/arranger. The lead singer on "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is a bassist. Watch "Mad World", "Pale Shelter", "Change", "Head Over Heels", "Shout", "Mothers Talk (long version)", and "Working Hour". The name Tears for Fears is based on the band's Primal Scream Therapy experiences.

    Tears for Fears, especially their album "Songs from the Big Chair" were pretty big in the 80s. "Shout", "Everybody Wants To Rule The World", and "Head Over Heals" are definitely on the soundtrack of my senior year of high school.

    Great GREAT band from the UK. Great Music!! They just got back together a couple of years ago after not talking with one another for over ten years. They released a new album called The Tipping Point, a bit dark, but really really good. One of my all time favourite bands.

    Awesome song and it was featured prominently in the movie that stars Val Kilmer, Real Genius. A great 1980s movie that is a true classic. I think you'd have a lot of fun watching it sometime. I remember when gas went up to $1.50 a gallon and was bummed it had gone up so much. The 80's were truly an iconic time and a literal vortex in time that will never happen again. A truly magical time. It had it's problems and concerns, but we had so much to listen to and to watch and to work with, it truly was magical for me. I grew up in the 80's and miss it all the time. Thanks for another great review!

    Curt Smith (lead vocals on this song) and Roland Orzabal (on the guitar, and backing vocals) trade lead vocals on their songs. The entire album that this song comes from 'Songs From the Big Chair' is a masterpiece of the 80s. "Shout" and "Head Over Heels" are also both amazing singles from the album.
    This song was the last one recorded for the album, as it just started as a guitar riff that Roland would play. Their producer forced them to keep working on a song using the riff all during the making of the album, eventually creating this gem. In my top 10 of the 1980s...this is like #3 for me. I adore this song.

    Curt and roland formed tears for fears whilst students and are from the city of Bath in somerset England, The car featured is a nod to their British origins as its a british sportscar called an austin healey and it belongs to the guitarist and vocalist roland orzabal and he still owns it. They recently reformed pre pandemic and are currently back on tour from the pandemic postponed reunion tour. There is a recent remake of this song by them which features additional vocals supplied by curts teenage daughter performed live during the pandemic lockdown crom curt and rolands homes

    Tears For Fears are Curt Smith Bass and Vocals, and Roland Orzabal Guitar and vocals. They are unique in that both guys sing lead vocal. Curt sings here, he has a lovely soulful voice that suits this song. Roland has a bit more range and his voice is a bit more powerful, they sound best when they both sing at the same time. Check out Sowing The Seeds Of Love, Woman In Chains, Shout and Head Over Heels all sang by Roland. Also check out Advice For The Young At Heart, Pale Shelter, Mad World and Change, all sung by Curt.

    I've never been their fan, but I always loved some of their hits that you should react to, if you really want to get to know their music - way to go: "Shout"; "Sowing the seeds of love"; "Woman in chains"; "Head over heels".

    A great blend of electronic sounds and traditional instruments, and two incredible singers. And those Eighties haircuts & clothes! Fantastic group with a library of great songs. "Head Over Heels" features in "Donnie Darko" and plays so well with the sequence in the film it's lined up with.

    Tears for Fears is such an underrated band as not only both Curt and Roland vocals are perfectly harmonized but both of them are super talented musicians. Curt on the bass and Roland on the guitar it's pure magic. Now a days most pop solo acts and even some bands don't even write their own music. Side note, there is no trying to make sense for most music videos from the 80s, it's just a visual vibe to enjoy and ride along 😎

      The funny thing is those were the "Side of the road in the middle of no-where" ripoff prices. The price shown here is $1.45 per gallon. The average price for a gallon of gas in 1985 (when this was released) was $0.88 according to eia.gov
