I am almost 50....have listened to a TON of music....This album is by far my favorite of all time...I just can't explain it why but it draws me back to this day....I feel (when listening) in my own little heaven,,,
well said... "My own little heaven." That's what this makes me feel too
So that's what his speaking voice sounds like, he could read poetry with that voice
I am very, very late to the Tears for Fears party. I really only came to appreciate them this year, 2022, with the release of The Tipping Point album. I was so impressed with that CD that I began looking at their back catalog. I recently bought Elemental and Tomcats Screaming Outside, both of which are brilliant. I'm glad I found this documentary since it gives me a window into Roland and his band mates back in 1993.
I cannot help being struck by how Roland's appearance has changed since then. The Roland Orzabal of today, has a white beard and long white hair, giving him a Gandalf-like appearance, which is fitting, considering he is something of a creative wizard and a magical human being. But still, for some weird reason, I kind of miss the young Roland of Elemental days.
But, no matter. Either younger or older, Roland Orzabal is a great songwriter, singer, musician and performer. Check out one of the videos of him singing Rivers of Mercy in concert. He's still got it - that immense gift of talent, charisma and creativity.
I played the hell out of that cd. I'm still glad Roland and Curt are back together.
Me too
.....How have I missed this man s' presence on the planet?????? I have an enormous crush on him ...!

Are you referring to Roland Orzabal? Because he is Definitely still on the planet, He is just missing from the current Music community internationally & U.S.
Which creates a Serious Deficit for all of us True Music conniseurs.🎶🎶🎶🎶🚴
OMG I could listen to him talk forever.
😂e eu nem sei mesmo o que ele está falando 😅mas continuo escutando...parece um íma.. não consigo deixar de escutá lo🎉
Roland Orzabal, Alan Griffiths and Tim Palmer - what a TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Possibly my favourite 12 minutes of video ever
Elemental is one of my favorite albums
Diane Kirse for me too! And Raoul. Both Curt-less strangely
Mine to. I love it.
@@MonoLith2049 both albums are unique and full of creative!
@@MonoLith2049 Same.
Mine too, together with Raoul and Tomcats!
I just wanna give Roland a hug and tell him thankyou!!! Namaste
ryanjofre me too🤗🎶🎶💜
Merci.....merci...merci Roland Orzabal
A RARE documentary of ROLAND!! Thanks for posting this! Great Job!!
Great documentary! I really like Roland. This man's talent knows no bounds. He's gifted... .blessed from the heavens. Plus he's intelligent, articulate, funny and handsome. His sexiness is hypnotic too. He can pull you in FIRST with his eyes and then the rest of him. Wow!! I need a man like that in my life!👍
Orzabal has fast become one of my favorite guitar players. He’s got a masterful variety of tones.
Few players can move from jazz to prog rock to adult contemporary with their playing, and Roland can.
Uh huh
I am very glad to see that so many already are happy to finally see this rare documentary. Any comments on it are deeply appreciated. As for «Elemental», it's among the very best TFF-album, a sonic treat with beautiful lyrics, melodies and production. It was very inspiring for me in the early 90s.
John Berge This is one of the most brilliant albums ever made. Thank you for uploading this. It means a lot to an aspiring singer.
Thanks so much for posting. Brilliant album, great documentary too. Roland is amazingly talented💜❤️👍🏿👏🏿
I just found this! I'm so glad!
This made me fall into tears! Such a talented person, Roland is. He touched so many lives and still does. Wish I can get to know him personally...even if he thinks he is a "bastard". i would like to be his friend.
Moi aussi,je voudrais le connaître !!! Et pouvoir lui dire que j' adore Tears for Fears,que je consacre presque 1:00 h par jour à les écouter 🎉❤❤
A very solid and great sounding record. One of my TFF favourites along with Everybody Loves A Happy Ending.
Roland is so hot, from his voice, to his intelligence, to his instrument playing, and his lyrics. I hope I can find a guy just like him one day.
A brilliant album. Four guys in a studio - that’s how an organic sounding album is made. I had no idea that ‘Woman in Chains’ (from Sowing The Seeds) was an insight into the marriage of Roland’s parents. It’s such a sad and beautiful song, rolled into one. It’s also coincidence that Tears For Fears recorded a song (‘Break it Down Again’) about how much influence the media has on our unnecessary buying habits - Duran Duran followed a similar vein in the same year with their song ‘Too Much Information’ from The Wedding Album. I really enjoyed watching this promo about an album that remains one of my favourites ever from the 90’s. It’s Ele..Mental.
I kind of had the feeling that TFF thought Duran Duran were the epitome of everything they were against.
I love you Roland thank you for saving my life with your music
Yes, he did "save" me as well!
Excellent interview... I really like listening to Roland's stories. (and I love his speaking voice) Yep I'm a fan of Roland :)..
Oh & he's also VERY sexy.
+Terry Porter hello, you could explain to me what he says in the video? I am from another country and do not understand their language, and I'm using the google translator.
I am a fan of Roland too.
You dont have to be a girl to find him sexy.😉
Yes. Yes. And YES!!!!
Omg that mane is beautiful! 😍
My story: Elemental flipped me from a TFF appreciator to a TFF super-fan. It all occurred by happenstance. Prior, I knew their hits and like them well enough in a hum-along kinda way. But I was never invested.
Then in '93 I was hit with a flu unlike any illness I'd known before. I was KO'ed for a week plus. At some point Elemental showed up in my mailbox compliments of the Columbia House record & tape Club (8 CDs for a penny!).
I never would have bought it on my own, I was too delirious to care. I listened to that dang CD on repeat for god knows how long. And it grew on me in a BIG way. Eventually going on to become my fave Tears release to date even after going on to "discover" their back catalog such as Big Chair, etc.
When this album came out there was a period of time i listened to it non stop. Great stuff.
He is so deep! I could hear him talk all day!
he is a 'messenger' like many other musicians. with the lyrics they try to 'wake people up' but with not much success as many just react/pay atention to the sound/rythm ...we are living organisms and big part of ours is made up of water... ....and as we have learnt thanks to the net, water can take different shape/patterns depending of the sound made...
true...
His voice sitting on a couch was amazing..
"Everything in the universe is recyclable, including you"
BitcoinFever How Very Reassuring to know that when I die I won't be adding to the local landfill.🌎🐛🦋🎶🎶🎶🎶🚴🎶🎶🎶🎶
one of the most brilliant albums cover to cover. I can't tell how many times I've played this album and still do. It aged very well considering just how long ago it was recorded. Roland is such a brilliant writer and lyricist.
Probably my favorite T4F album easily.
great interview of how the music was made, and what Rolands vision was... he is brilliant... and his voice is sexy, i could listen all day to Roland talking...
Me too !
one of the best albums ever
His voice is so calm >>
I could hear him for ages💕
Awesome musician!!! Keep it up Roland ! Where would I be without your music???!!!
Like these kinds of documentaries. Get the kind of feel for things, as they were happening. Love TFF.
@JOHNBERGE007: Amazing upload.... Not only does it showcase Roland's creative genius and sensitivity, but some of those vocals I heard during the recording sessions were gorgeous! Thank you for sharing such a special clip.
What a genius he is!
A man of substance!😍 you had me at elemental!
OMG!! This is the BEST! Thank you so VERY MUCH for uploading...
Best album ever...changed my life!!!
Wow! Wow! Wow! Amazing. Thank you so much for uploading this promo video.
I have been away from YT too long. Thank goodness a friend sent me this video or I would be missing out on a such wonderful interview.
How poignant to see Alan Griffiths - tragic to have lost him at such a young age. Let's be grateful that he and Roland worked together to produce such sublime music.

AMEN🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🌎
Didn't know he passed :(
I've only ever seen bits of this, but this is just so so, awesome, Roland you take me to places I've never been before, and you are magical in your song and your words, such a beautiful man. We ( all on here) praise you and love you for all you are!!
For me, the best album of 1993🇲🇽
4:38 *_THAT LOOK_* 😵😳😵😳😵
Ladies. Us guys see it too.
🔥
that was the moment when I saved this video in my playlist 😅❤
So Roland is a Perfectionist, welcome aboard!
it took me years to conclude
Perfection is in the eye of the Beholder.
and for the 2 who "thumbed down" this documentary, what's the problem?
this is as honest as it gets
I can’t believe it’s been 25 years. I love this album.
"Funny how time flies"
I know. I used to work at Music Plus in California when i lived there & when this CD came out i'd recommend it to everyone.
Well, it is all mixed up in my Life at the current moment,or since I moved to Milwaukee WI. Listening to and singing along with the song "Break it down " is the Best therapy I know of.
I never knew Alan Griffiths
buy I know the person he was by listening to the MUSIC He Helped Create.
watching this video is a rare , privileged look into his life and I truly appreciate it.🌎🎼🚲🙋
THANK YOU
OMG, that jazz/blues song is chilling to me. This album has to be the best! I need to get it,
Você me faz sonhar com a sua música e sua linda voz Roland!!!!!!!! Extraordinariamente lindo!!!!!!

I absolutely love RUclips. I would have NEVER seen this otherwise.
I grew up adoring this band and Elemental in particular always resonated more with me.
“Brian Wilson Said” is my favorite TFF song.
Thank you good man for sharing this
Thanks for the upload!
Thank you for posting this video. I am a HUGE TFF fan so it is nice to see this. Elemental is one of my favorite post Curt TFF albums.
Happy birthday, Elemental
WHY WHY WHY they did not released the clip for "Mr. Pessimist"?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
thank you very much!!! love love this!!! :D. Do you have other Tears For Fears stuff? Please share ;)
Terrific! Thank you!
+Deb Charlesworth hello, you could explain to me what he says in the video? I am from another country and do not understand their language, and I'm using the google translator.
I got excited when you said more to come! looking forward to it. thanks again! :) no worries about the red blurs. been sharing your vid to TFF friends :)
Thanks! Love this album
John, this was a treat. Thanks for taking the time to upload and share. What's interesting is that he seems at once thoughtful, very intelligent, introspective, inspired, narcissistic, perfectionist, and controlling. Like a lot of artists.
Embassy
Like alot of PEOPLE?🚴🎶
Awesome Tears for fears
Roland......what a great album....my favorite of them all....ya got some sexy hair dude.....and THAT VOICE!
Estoy completamente enamorada de este hombre tan brillante, sexy y guapo, tiene la sonrisa y la voz más bella del mundo!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Amo esse álbum!!!!
Wonderful! Thank you.
Since this album is so important to me, it'd be great to hear him comment on every other track, but I guess that is all there is...
Great stuff thank you!!
@JOHNBERGE007 I am the one to be thankfull here :-)
I don't mind the red blur at all. Am just grateful you have shared it with us.
Can't thank you enough :-)
RIP Alan Griffiths . Teve muito crédito nesse album do TFF com sua guitarra de canhoto. Faz falta.
Thank you for sharing this!!!
@TFFpixel: Yes, I have, and have already uploaded the promo video for «Raoul and the Kings of Spain» in an amazing HQ.
It makes sense that the album was recorded in a home studio, because there are so many layers and textures that must have taken ages to put together. It takes a lot of listens to really appreciate how much is going on.
Great vid! TYVM for sharing!
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing this gem
Roland . How talented . What a voice! How sexy !
@kayegate: I've been wanting to do this for a long time, but it took me awhile to set up my transfersystem from S-VHS/LD etc. to my Mac. More to come! :)
@JOHNBERGE007 great! thanks for sharing :). i love the Elemental and RATKOS albums.
@Butterflyneverlands: It's great to have good friends! I wish the red blurs weren't there, but it's an 17 year old VHS-tape, so these things happen. What's most important is that we «get the message out there»! It's cool to see how quiet and calm Roland was.
I have one of these VHS.... ;)
He voice and this song elemental is such a great song Roland is the best period I just love his music and his interview so genuine and real.
