I had no idea that they were so good live.

[@chrisramsey3603]

They were early on but once the keyboardist left and drummer they sounded different and not as good, they got away from the original sound. Even Rolands voice then sounds off.

[@greggers5988]

it sounds just like the recording !!!

[@FWDSUXARSE]

Still are great live to this day. Sure they've aged but we all do. None of us get out of this alive but it's what we do before our time comes.

[@chellumin7990]

@@greggers5988 It is the recording- they're playing to a backing track. Vocals are live though and sound great

So unique. Love it

[@Annabelle269]

So powerful voices. The band has two voices.. so the proper distribution for singing many their songs..

[@fawnebrown4619]

Amen!

[@Boody617]

Everyone was lip syncing around this time too. If you watch any of the old NKOTB or any of the big groups from around this time they almost never actually sang live.

[@ellavaderknows]

What a great synth solo. Epitomizes the 80's

[@sooooper]

Gives me chills every time

[@LoveABun]

@@sooooper Me, too! I play it in my car over and over and over again with the volume turned WAY up! I actually pretend I’m in the band playing it! 😅

I was 10 years old

[@sneville44]

I wanted this song to be our wedding entrance song with the woman I was head over heels about. I envisioned that she would start down the aisle with the start of this song. I was never sure about what the lyrics were all about…all I knew at the time is that, to me, this was a great song about a guy head over heels about a gal. That was me. Unfortunately I was still in grad school in California and she was off to Spokane Washington for her first job after college. This was before cell phones, texting, e-mail and cheap air fares. The only way to communicate back then were expensive long distant telephone calls and hand written postal letters. Long distance relationships were pretty much impossible back then. We lost touch after she moved. Whenever I hear this song I think of her in a wedding dress walking down the aisle to me smiling her beautiful smile.

[@lxxwj]

i hope you can find her again

[@SleepingFits]

@@lxxwj This is the correct response.

[@tomp7142]

I just love his voice

[@antihqros_]

roland's voice is amazing!!!!

[@Trpmanne]

Singing with conviction

[@scorpichella]

And that’s what’s missing from almost all todays pop.

[@P-I-UK]

Roland's voice is so underrated One of the best in the world from the 80s

[@pablosouza8932]

Awsome basslines, great voice.

[@candysweet434]

roland's voice is so fucking good. i am happy he decided to sing live because curt lipsynced everybody wants to rule the world which idk why because curt has a great voice live also.

[@trottytravolta46]

Also lypsinced

[@OzBaxter]

@@trottytravolta46 No this is not lypsinced. Their voices are too different from the album performance. Clearly.

[@helixmoore7636]

[@keniagold144]

I was born in 1967, I can't go back to the 80s but I can go back to those years and remember how happy I was thanks to music... Thanks to young people with powerful voices and great talent for composing we are the LUCKY generation to have enjoyed so much talent.❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏

[@isacampos5968]

Yes, you are that lucky generation! I would like to have lived those wonderful years!! ❤❤❤

[@sandyovals]

jeeze man, what a voice.

[@david31XD]

no autotune, no playback, just amazing voice....they dont make bands like that anymore

[@angelwrapper1003]

Well you can here playbacks though but they mostly sing live

[@ivanchernov3041]

they still do make bands like this, they just never get popular

[@trtorbelfort]

@@ivanchernov3041 see Men I trust, Alvvays, Beach House, MGMT, etc. plenty of groups out now that took huge influence from TFF

[@thiagooo2096]

Before 1994 everyone had to really sing, because if you didn't sing well live, you wouldn't be successful! I say until 1994 because it was around that time that voice correction programs were developed, one of the most famous being Autotune and Melodyne. With that, nowadays nobody almost sings for real anymore.

[@KnapfordMaster98]

There is playback, the keyboard player actually misses his intro and doesn't start "playing" the piano part until a few seconds in. Roland's guitar part around 3:02 is also part of the playback, not sure if it was at the start of the song or not. Does bother me, but regardless they sound awesome live.

[@LoveABun]

Curt and the keyboard guy sound fantastic-exactly like the original recording! ❤

[@deenamccarthy6177]

Ian Stanley!!

[@theblakex]

That's because IT IS the recording lol

[@UncommonLtd.]

Wow these guys sound perfect live. Not much of that around nowadays 😕

[@TheScribe114]

They were along with Mr.Mister were one of the only bands during the 80's that replicated their studio sound in concert. I saw them in Detroit in October of 1985 and they became the standard bearer for live performances.

[@californiamusic]

Tears for Fears and Mr Mister both played live to recorded instrument tracks.. there's a lot going on in those songs, had to either do that or have many more musicians on stage ; )

[@LukeParon]

Listen to more modern music not just top 40

[@UncommonLtd.]

@@LukeParon lol I'm the last person to ever listen to top anything. I just like alotta 80s stuff from my childhood.

[@UncommonLtd.]

@@LukeParon and I'll pass on the modern too

[@johncunnane1582]

If music creativity ceased tomorrow, these lads have created enough music for the world to live off.

[@Josiecat80]

I'm gonna say this is a Yes...One of my fav Tears for fears songs .. its sexy and about love its a great live one

[@kookistar]

The intro, some keyboard notes still now makes my heart beat violently. Ghee…

[@blazinchalice]

Everyone in the comments are rightfully impressed by Orzabal's voice, but how about some props for Curt Smith, whose bass playing is so slick and on-point. It lends a great bottom to the song and he's killing it.

[@mosheshalev9929]

I'm 26 but I know it deep in my bones that I should have been around in the 80's... what a great era with great music. P.S - I'm a metal head originally, but it doesn't matter. Good music is good music no matter what shape or form :)

[@SSRacing66]

Crazy how long ago that was , time flies, but music like this is forever.

[@HenryHustles615]

They don’t make music like this anymore . Every note strikes your core to the fullest !

[@digitaldrive1192]

at the time I was so young I didn't realize how well rounded musicians they are. The guitar, bass, and keys are fantastic. Of course the drummer is great too.

[@natangomes6754]

Mesma voz ao vivo e estúdio, impressionante!

eu tbm lkkkj eu amo essa música

[@Jacen13]

My favorite singer when I was a little boy! Then I got into grunge & Layne Staley became my favorite singer! I also love Dolores O’Riordan. I like really unique voices I guess. 🎤

[@bobby_hill8357]

Layne Staley had such an incredible ability with his voice. He could really belt out notes and project with more power than most ppl realize. He could seamlessly go up and down with vocal intensity at will. Really unique talent

[@FWDSUXARSE]

Staley is one of my favorites. The harmonics between him and Cantrell (also referred to as vocal melodies, what have you, etc) are one of a kind and once in lifetime.

[@morallycorruptmaleficentti1194]

They were playing this song in 1983, very similar arrangement and vocals - nobody noticed. Two years later it's a giant hit. One of the best bands of the 1980s who never got the props they deserved. Can't believe I listened to this song 40 years ago at my uni radio station, nobody realized how good they were - that changed in '85.

[@mariaangelesprana]

I think it was " I am Broken" in 1983 then it became this one

wanted to be with you alone And talk about the weather But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention You keep your distance via the system of touch And gentle persuasion I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much? Oh, you're wasting my time You're just, just, just wasting time Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out until I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart Don't, don't, don't throw it away Throw it away, throw it away I made a fire, and watching it burn Thought of your future With one foot in the past, now just how long will it last? Now, now, now, have you no ambitions? My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air And dreaming I'm a doctor It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand Oh, I feel so Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out until I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart Don't, don't, don't throw it away And this is my four leaf clover I'm on the line, one open mind This is my four leaf clover In my mind's eye One little boy, one little man Funny how time flies
