I don't know a single person that doesn't love this song
First time I've ever heard it. Not bad
I do, but he's a complete snob.
yesssss
Everybody Wants To Rule The World "1985"
The Way You Make Me Feel "1987"
bingo
Simply posting for information value, didn't want to start an uprising...🤣
It was necessary they need to know Michael copied Tears for Fears
@@andyh4224 while there are similarities to this song, he didn't 'copy' tears for fears. if anything, the song 'one step closer to you' by gavin christopher is much closer to michael's song. the shuffle groove with eighth note triplets was popular in the 80s. no one owns it.
@@andyh4224 To be fair, you can do this with a lot of pop songs.
This song was released 2 years before "The Way You Make Me Feel" by Michael Jackson came out.
And while the beat is the same, the high-hat work over the beat is totally different and very... unique. As a drummer, I love this song because it is so different yet you can still jam out to it without thinking too much lol.
@@danbardos3498 The 'drums' in 'Everybody...' is a drum-machine, isn't it? At least originally, the way it was made in the studio, pretty sure it's a pretty smart usage of a drum sampler/machine and adding some accents here and there, to make it sound less robotic and programmable.
Not slept on at all. This record was huge. My young daughter loves them and I took her to see them last year in an arena. They were amazing. Head Over Heels is another banger off this record.
Biggest-selling album of 1985!!
Yep still played as a classic now.
Saw them in Huntington Beach last year with B52s, devo, psychedelic furs etc and I cried during their set lol
Saw them with Shirley Manson and the boys from Garbage with my daughter. It was AMAZING!
@@JungleJuiceJoeywow The Furs .. lovem since album Talk Talk Talk
This is arguably the best pop rock song ever written.
Perfection!
Stadium anthem of brilliance,but for me,the gold can be found in the deep cuts.
Obviously influenced by the Fab Four (who wasn’t?) but they added 80’s tech and wizardry along with excellent intelligent lyrics.
Great band live too.
This and Don't Dream It's Over are two of my most beloved songs from childhood. It's strange but whenever I hear one of them, I immediately crave hearing the other. They both evoke the same emotions and memories.
@@John_Locke_108absolutely! Within a year of each other, amazing musicianship and production, and similar melancholy but uplifting feel.
I thought this was Depeche Mode for the longest time
Nobody writes it off. It's a classic and will be forever.
Agreed. It's a pop masterpiece. This song is the real deal.
Doubly so for those of us who also love the movie _Real Genius._ Great individually, great together. A wonderful pairing.
That guitar work is insane, wow!
It was my Moms favorite song. 💯 And she was born in 1953.
R.I.P. Mom. ❤
🖖🏻🧡💙
Reason you're listening to this song almost 40 years later is cause it meant so much to so many people back then...so no one dismissed it as poppy or nothing when it came out first
Right! We enjoyed it as being poppy, but did not dismiss it as such, seeing that there was more to it.
These guys were sneaky good. They had way more hits than people remember. Great songwriters
Weird drum lines though haha But, awesome nonetheless.
The first line of the first song on their first album was "Is it an horrific dream? Am I sinking fast?".
So, you know, right up there with the deep questions from the first demos. Simulation, the biblical fall... sowing the seeds is what these boys need to understand next, lest they miss the point of "down, again".
name one more hit that they had if you could.
@@kf8346 Head Over Heels. Also, Change.
Seed of love
"Welcome to your life, there's no turning back." Great opening lyrics and sums life up perfectly, you're born and life goes on regardless.
Also, this is one of the most perfectly crafted songs of all time.
You are spot on with both points.
the best song of all time...
Calm down, not that deep
@@1mgb what does that even mean
@@OrgaNik_Music Id like to say it's something kids today say when they can't use their brain to understand the point of something.. BUT I have friends that say the same thing when they don't want to think and I'm 28 so yeah.. we are doomed 😅
That intro is nostalgic as f*ck 👏 😌
Yeah man. That lead in to the song rockets me back to my childhood and a flood of memories from the 80s. Memories I didn’t even know I had.
Crazy how music can time machine you 40 years back in a nano second.
This is one of if not the best song of the 80's.
Facts!!
As Metalhead, I say this is the best músic of all history!! If I have to choose one músic before I die, would be this
Absolutely
100%. Big metal head, but this gets a weekly play. This and the promise by when in rome
I would say i like Head Over Heels more than this one. EWTRTW also great but Head Over Heels has an amazing vibe over it and instrumental like its far more complex than this one
Mad World. Sampled so many times as well as covered.
*Rule by Nas from Stillmatic*
Love Mad World!! So Haunting!!❤
Gary Jules cover.
@@skp9020Gary covered the original TFF version
This is a truly magnificent song that can't be praised highly enough. Very underrated guitar work in particular.
"Mad World", "Pale Shelter", "Break it Down Again", "The Hurting", "Elemental", tons of great songs from Tears For Fears.
The Hurting is a great album!
TIMELESS. THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL TIMELESS MUSIC!!!
Nearly 40 years later...Still gives me chills!!!
✌❤🎶
Tears' "Woman in Chains" with singer Oleta Adams' heavenly vocals is just one of the most beautiful, timeless songs from that decade.
And that key change towards the end! 👌🏼
Yeah, I was looking through the comments to see if anyone mentioned this. It is truly a beautiful song. I think the guys will really like it.
Gorgeous song
Great song. I saw a Desert Island Disc episode with her. Charming, and an interesting taste in Music too.
Definitely “Woman in Chains!” Just a great, great song that needs a reaction.
The fact that this song - which came out in 1985 - is still banging in 2024 is a testament to the songwriting, the performances, the production, and everything about it being on point. Is it a pop song? Yeah, but it's a really GOOD pop song that still sounds good almost 40 years later. Shout out to the freethinkers!
This band and this song speak to the souls of an entire generation. great stuff they put out
Head over heels, shout, Seeds of love are great songs from them. Great music videos as well
“Break it down again”is cool too! I think it’s from 1991 though
I remember being shocked to find out that these guys made Shout originally, since I found it through the Disturbed cover haha xD
Plus "Woman in Chains"
The two dudes in the music video dancing in sync at the gas station during this song's epic bridge - fading to the 3-wheeler trying to climb the sand dune. That's still peak '80s imagery for me...
@@angelania Wonderful song and video.
My favourite with accompanying video is filming a Latino wedding in "Advice For THe Young At Heart" :)
Head Over Heels is another amazing song by them, and it's one of those songs that I cannot get tired of!
They're singing directly to the 14 year old buried deep in my head.
So this!
The bass synth groove is literally the part in The Way You Make Me Feel. Michael sampled it.
This song has become the face of 80's music. It was popular when it came out but it continues to grow in stature the further we get from the 80's.
I'm a 28 year old football coach from Mississippi and this is my favorite song of all time. Made my day to see that you guys enjoyed it. Something about it gets me every time I hear it.
One of the defining tracks of the 80's.
Now that you guys are going down the 80s synth pop way, I can’t believe you haven’t done a single Depeche Mode tune.
So much greatness there.
Also Howard Jones
These are my people. Hello friends! I also agree. DM and Howard would definitely make the boys vibe...
Agreed! DM is amazing. I think these guys should start with Violator and "Enjoy the Silence". I am SURE they would love it.
Yesss! One of my all time favorite bands
@@bellaluinil4693 If we're going Howard Jones (which, of course, we should), gotta toss Thomas Dolby in there too. Granted, much of his catalog is less "rockin' in out" and more introspective. But if George and Ryan haven't heard "Weird Science" yet, they _must_ . :)
Sowing The Seeds Of Love is a great song too!
The video reminiscent of the Beatles Strawberry Fields.
Agreed...perhaps their best
This
It's like The Beatles meet David Bowie/Mott the Hoople ("All the Young Dudes")
I always got a strong Beatles vide from that song too. I went to school with Giles Martin (George's son) and we had stuff written by "someone" for our school plays. He had hair like Boris Johnson at school. Hahaha
This was anything but slept on at the time. Came out and stayed on the radio for like a decade and then some. A rare song with an 80's vibe that somehow seems timeless.
I need to thank Colombia House and that penny I taped to their postcard for my love of Tears For Fears!
😂 I'm pretty sure I still owe Columbia House money...
This song never gets old. It’s a classic.
This song never gets old. Another favorite on this record is The Working Hour.
“The Working Hour” is their most underrated track. Lyrics, music & composition.
This song and "Head Over Heels" were MASSIVE songs back in the day. I still hear it all the time on radio stations. Don't worry, it's not slept on. It got it's well deserved respect and continues to do so.
The guitar work on this whole album is amazing
The drum part here has always fascinated me. It sounds like he’s playing 1/8 or 1/16s on the high hat but it’s really just quarter notes played in 3/4 time. It’s sparse but really complicated and implies more than it actually does
Tears For Fears are a cut above most 80's bands.Their new album is blowing people away - friggin' masterpiece! Hauntingly beautiful, Tears' catalog is essential purchase, loaded with gem after gem! Bonus: Young Roland and Jon Cryer are look alikes.
THANK YOU!!! I don't know how many times I've said he looks like a Jon Cryer and people tell me that I'm crazy!
Lol! Hey Jon, yeah, those people need to get their vision checked, Cryer and Roland might even be related! I mean how can people NOT see the resemblance!?!? Another one I like is Chad Smith, drummer for Red Hot Chili Peppers and Will Farrell.
@@JonHolida2
You cannot fail with Tears For Fears!!! sooooo many great songs!
Change, Pale Shelter, Mad World, Head Over Heels, Shout, Advice For The Young At Heart, Woman In Chains, Laid So Low, Break It Down Again, etc.
Loved the reaction! This whole album is killer! And that’s coming from a metalhead that grew up in the 80s.
Same & agree, but literally days back debated debut disc was best with Change, Mad World, Pale Shelter standing up to any trio of tunes from their later records.
from what i've gathered, a huge amount of metalheads love 80's synthpop
myself included, The Hurting and Songs from the Big Chair are masterpieces
"Sowing the Seeds of Love" is a MUST from Tears for Fears, and probably the one George will like the most, I think.
Yes
Yes
Very Beatlesque.
My absolute favourite dog or theirs is Sowingbtge seeds of lobe, followed by woman in chains
AMAZING
One of the best songs ever recorded!
I'm a metal fan and I can say it's a good song, very nostalgic.
Same here and i've always wanted a true metal version of this.
Mother’s Talk, Head Over Heels, Change, so many jams!
And......the Working hour
Real Genius. 80s.
Iconic 80's anthem!💯
First song I listened to on the night my dad passed away back on Thanksgiving 2017 (11/23)
My dad had the greatest hits album, and this was song #1 on that CD and I played it on the long drive home.
RIP dad
Roland Orzabal had a really traumatic childhood. Song from the Big Chair is a reference to Sybil. Shout, one of the singles form this album, is a partial reference to scream therapy. Roland had a dark side.
Another decent Tears for Fears song is head over heels.
To me that's the best, and there's "Shout".
Much better than decent ♥
The drums is what makes me so in love with this masterpiece. And the solo is so raw and beautiful.
The song was commentary on social stuff that was going on (and still is going on). This is from American Songwriter: "The lyrics to the song became an anthem against greed and power hunger in the world. In the opening verse, frontman Curt Smith sings about the inescapable eye of “Big Brother.” Elsewhere are allusions to nuclear war (There’s a room where the light won’t find you) and rising tensions between the U.S. and the Soviet Union at the time of the song’s release (Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down)."
Hell yeah thanks for that explanation!
@@mattscoggins I can't take credit - it's from the American Songwriter site - but you're welcome bro.
In 1984 there was not so much a concern about nuclear war as a sense of inevitability. Most everyone I knew seemed to feel like we were living on borrowed time. The nuclear arsenals of the USSR and USA were incomprehensibly huge and poised to bombard the planet to extinction with only a few minutes' warning. A lot of the music at that time had a sense of hapless partying at the end of the world. Think "I stop the world and melt with you".
@chriscase6929 the Reagan Administration deftly used the media and Hollywood to foster this narrative of the US ready to launch at any moment. The US had been reducing its stockpile since the 60s, whereas the Soviets were increasing until 1987 with the INF treaty. The Soviets bankrupted and could no longer fund its satellites. Checkmate.
I've recently rediscovered tears for fears, and I totally slept on this group. Phenomenal lyrics, musicians hip, and performance with a ton of great songs
Michael paid TFF to use that riff on The Way You Make Me Feel. Check out the release dates if you think otherwise. Sunds perfect for both songs
Nah. [citation needed]
I turned 20 in 1985 and remember Tears for Fears very well. Their songs have passed the ultimate test, the test of time. Sounding as fresh as a daisy, like they were written yesterday ❤
I was 18 in 1985. That was such a great year for music. TFF has always been one of my favorite bands if not my favorite. So much great music in the mid 80's.
The movie " Real Genius" starring Val Kilmer, original soundtrack main song. I can never turn this song off when it pops off. Like my parents had their song from the sixties, or seventies, this was our song in the eighties . You cannot turn it down only up. . ❤
I think of the movie but I never thought of this as 'my/our song', but I'm not a fan of the 80s even though I was a teenager then.
That movie was an unknown bit of genius.
I remember watching the movie on the big screen and this song at the end!
"Pale Shelter" and "Head Over Heels" are two songs I really love from Tears For Fears
"Pale Shelter - 2nd Single Version" on Spotify
Same. As are Change and Mad World
"Pale Shelter" is one of my favorites too--seems like it didn't get as much play as many of their other songs.
I feel like you guys would absolutely adore Depeche Mode. Hope to see them on the channel sometime.
This 🔥
Agree. I can’t believe they haven’t done Depeche Mode
I just found them, but I do know Depeche takes a special ear
I love Depeche Mode!
Badman's Song and Woman in Chains from TFF are both pure fire, in their own unique ways. Well worth listening to.
They played this in the Guardians of the Galaxy ride at Walt Disney World, Orlando FL. It was incredible.
The line “so sad they had to fade it” refers to their song “Shout”. The producers or whatever record company execs thought “Shout” was too long of a song to be a single and wanted it cut down. I think the band fought back but may have ultimately had to give in.
That part where they sing about "the room where the light wont find you, holding hands while the walls come tumbling down, when they do , I'll be right behind you" to me that isn't about a shared brotherhood, but "Hey, if you fail, its mine. I'm coming right behind you to take it." Its a cutthroat line. Pale Shelter is another good one.
From a historical context this is a Cold War song. It can be read all through the lyrics.
This is an epic record from the 80s. At the time it was called the British Invasion because there were so many British bands and singers on the American charts. My son is 11 and he can’t get enough of this song. It’s an 80s classic that has its own following and culture and it represents so many of us when we were teenagers. This would be a hit if it was released today. Fire 🔥
I’m a spoiled Englishman of some years and from about ‘63 onwards,we’ve produced some of the best music in history,along with you lot across the pond.
Next from them?
A classic called Woman in Chains,the female vocal is stunning.
One of the biggest albums of that decade. TFF was so much more than an 80s band , theyre master songwriters in any era. "Head Over Heels" is perfection
Head Over Heels...every section of that song is catchy
Great video as well.
Head over Heels, Mother's Talk and Shout are all amazing songs
Mother’s Talk is one of my favorites!
One of my most favorite songs. My 8 year old nephew loves this song!
So does my 8 years old son, 80s music still alive! Greetings from Miami Fl ☀️☀️👍🏻👍🏻
And put this in the context of the time. This was not 80s cliche at all, the production was incredibly fresh and new and its brilliance shines through today.
Well said!
They certainly fit in with the general pop atmosphere of the time, while also bringing a lot of their own something extra.
Saying that something sounds like the decade it was made in, I never understood that as a point of criticism. Like no crap, how could it not? Just say you don't like the song.
One of my favorites Tears For Fears songs is "Break It Down Again." Inspirational. Definitely check that one out next!
Break it Down from Elemental,. Curt left by then. Great songs on this album. Roland wrote some vicious lyrics towards Curt.
The Hurting - great album as well
Their song Head Over Heels is my shit! One of the best songs of the 80's!
When it first came out it ruled the FM stations for months-everyone loved this song -the music was awesome as are the lyrics. It was fire then and still is today.
One of my all time favorite songs! This song was huge.
This song was huge! One of my favorites ever! This was used in several movies, most notably Real Genius with Val Kilmer. Awesome time to be alive, the eighties. I miss it so much.
Yes!! I was gonna comment the same thing. The only thing I think of when I hear this song is the mountain of popcorn flowing out of the house. I literally wore out my VHS copy of Real Genius. Amazing song & movie. 🍿
I think it’s awesome you guys review songs you’ve already heard still. Can’t tell you how many times a song I’ve heard a million times blooms into so much more during a real sit down listen at home :)
Head Over Heels is still one of m favorite 80's songs and they are a steady rotation in my current playlists
Love this song, absolute 80‘s classic
Welcome to having this ear-wormed in your membrane for the next week! This one always jumps inside the grey matter randomly at times just for how driving the melody is.
This CD was kept in my car at all times. My all time fav road trip album.
I always forget how much fun the 80s were.
Such a vibe 80s song
This is definitely the best track to wind up with on the Guardians of the Galaxy ride at Epcot. The smoothness of the song just makes the whole thing super trippy and ambient. :D
Tears for Fears had an exquisite sense of melody, and this one is on the list of great pop/rock songs for sure.
Roland Orzobal is the main driving force of Tears for fears. He wrote almost all the songs. Kurt sang most sings on the first two albums but then Roland was like, no I wanna sing my own songs you listen to the song Head Over Heels which is on this album you can hear Roland singing his own song.
This is one of those really chill songs that have that power to influence you to have a good chill day. A good song to listen to on a really lazy easy going day. I gotta listen to it when I am beach side in Venice Beach. 💗💗💗💗
Such a classic, they definitely defined the 80s pop sound.
🎶🎶 You have no idea how massive this song was.
Everyone loved it.
totally LOVE that song.....always have...always will
They still perform today! And sound like their albums. They still bring it!
George said it - the ambiance that they create… their sound is amazing!
This is like one of the most universally loved songs
These guys are great songwriters, great singers. Highly appreciated in their time, maybe underappreciated afterwards. I think it's being a victim of the time they recorded, it's locked in a time capsule of 80's pop. But the songs are great, regardless of time. Also, this came out before 'The Way you Make Me Feel'
very long overdue, but better late than never! this song's value changes as you get older and have a different appreciation for life
The 80s have so many hits, and race and music weren't a factor growing up during those times. Tears are one of my favorite groups.
This song was a MAJOR deal in its time, so much so that people like yourselves are still rocking it to 'till this day. They don't make meaningful music like this anymore. Music today is about destroying one another, to a large degree. So glad I was raised during the era when music was extremely committed to making this world a better place.
One of the best produced parts of this song that never gets mentioned is the hihat sound that sets the groove thru the song. It sounds like a shaker on top of the hihat16ths.
I adore Tears for Fears. I *highly* recommend their song Woman in Chains featuring the brilliantly talented Oleta Adams 💓... It's a favorite song of mine.
Then Sowing the Seeds of Love... 😊
Just a little slice of my childhood! Thank you.
The working Hour by Tears for Fears is an unmissbale track. It's so good.
One of my favorite songs of all time. I never ever get tired of it, will never skip when it comes on shuffle. Would love to see yall do Sowing the Seeds of Love.
25 million sold, there was a time that T4F ruled the world.
The song was definitely huge in the UK for a few weeks, before my time. Anyone who loved this seriously needs to check out Depeche Mode if they haven't.
Always at the very top of my favorite songs of the 80s.
This and Shout are definitely not just it! They have some of the best song writing of the 80s and even thier more fleshed out and elaborate songs are absolutely beautiful. They'll catch you off guard with how good they are as "just another 80s synth pop" band. Check out The Working Hour, Pale Shelter, Memories Fade, Change and Head Over Heels.
This song has been on my playlist for the last 5yrs….One of my favorite….BTW Nas also sampled this on Stillmatic and the song is called Rule with Amerie singing on the hook.
