Hi Jay! Here’s a suggestion for your one hit wonder list “I’ve never been to me” by Charlene. It was a worldwide hit for reasons still unknown. Also no one else on KZbin has reacted to it! Cheers ✌️🇦🇺🥰 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKC2m5urfsdpi9U

Check out some police songs. Eagles, Heart, Earth Wind & Fire.

Eric He’s done quite a few reactions to The Police, The Eagles & Earth, Wind & Fire. Not sure about Heart though.

Liston to the song on their GOING TO SANTA BARBARA CONCERT, it's the second song. Amazing!!!

[@stevesheriff5515]

Please listen to woman in chains.......epic

[@wardeerent]

As an old fart, it warms my heart when the youngsters appreciate the really good music from the 80s. It was a different world indeed.

[@oldeskoolnana7543]

We are the cool generation. Best music ever. I was a teen in the 70's & saw almost every artist back then. Wouldn't trade it for the world. We may be old but we are cool. My granddaughter & her friends say I'm the bomb. Cooler than their parents. I take it a a huge compliment.✌🌻🌻

The last line, "Funny how time flies" is such a true statement. One moment you are 18yo hearing Tears for Fears for the first time and the next moment, you are a 55yo grandparent... Thank goodness for the music carrying me through all these years!!! 😍🥰😍🥰

One of my favorite bands from the 80's. Remember sitting at the Jersey shore listening on my boombox to their songs over & over. To go back to 20 yrs old.

Hi Dawn, we are the same age and everything you said goes for me too, including the grandparent part. Isn't it crazy that people from totally different parts of the world can share an experience through music. And such great music it is.

“Sowing the Seeds of Love” is a must!

YES!!!!

[@jamesalexander5623]

Their Tribute to the Beatles!

[@judywinkler1214]

Another perfect song. Bassist Gail Dorsey played with this excellent band until she got a call from Mr. David Bowie. She was his bassist until he passed. She has such high praise for this great band. Check her out, excellent musician.

Roland Orzabal (singer in this song) is the main songwriter. He’s incredible ❤️

@@DJFunkygroove thx

[@laminage]

What was so great about them is that they both took "turns" singing lead and that's saying alto because you never saw that with Hall & Oates. This Video was filmed in Toronto, Ontario and keep in mind that Duran Duran, The Police, Wham and even The Backstreet Boys were popular in Canada before they hit the big time in America. They also were one of many Acts who appeared on American Bandstand in the 1980's.

[@marusnyamoso9344]

Roland has one of the best voices-five octave range? Good God’

[@04beni04]

As a graduate student I spent time with the special collections in the library where they filmed this (Emmanuel College). It was around 2002 or thereabouts, so a good 15 or so years after the video came out. I remember looking around, wondering aloud why it seemed oddly familiar, and -- I kid you not -- the librarian who was helping me rolled her eyes _hard_ and half-shouted in exasperation: "That damned monkey! Took us forever to clean up that mess!"

[@Alex-bs4md]

"Pale Shelter" is an awesome underrated song of theirs, I recommend it!

[@rebeccaholmes1982]

I think this is probably my favourite TFF song, so amazing!

[@rickvidal9783]

Agreed

[@Steve-gc5nt]

Songs From The Big Chair is one of the greatest albums. Not just from the 80's but from all time. Superb.

[@MichaelTrogdon1990]

"Pale Shelter" is another good one from this band.

[@feferosette]

Yes it is! Love that song and music video☺

[@vicsterhamster]

Its one of my fav

[@xoxxobob61]

"Pale Shelter" was the first TFF song I ever heard & this is before they became famous. I've been a fan since then.

[@dirkkelly7522]

Definitely!

[@nmernst]

I totally forgot this was set in a library - as a librarian, I'm Head Over Heels seeing an actual card catalog :) I believe both the singers of the group contributed to the songwriting and lyrics. Yes, very talented and in 1985, they were a tour de force. Thanks for sharing!

[@cleeboy5048]

I remember taking a field trip to the library in grade school. We learned how to use the card catalog system and how to check out books! We also had a mobile library that would drive around town. It was a big truck with a makeshift library inside! 🤭😁 📖📚

[@sarahjane8146]

As soon as I saw the card catalog I started laughing-imagining the current high school set wondering what on earth THAT was!

[@juliedaly9897]

I worked in a library before computers took over..... Kinda miss the issue system..... Brings back memories. ❤️

[@johnm9845]

I worked in a large reference library years ago with woman who looked like that. I should write a song about that too.

@Hillary's emails to Lorne I think many will want to, at times, hold a real book. Other information may never get digitized but much smaller brick and mortar space will be needed in the future for sure.

[@oldrockgeeser9426]

You want hits check those "Change" "Mad World" " Pale Shelter" "Mothers Talk" "Advice For The Young At Heart" "Badman's Song" "Sowing The Seeds Of Love" "Woman In Chains" "Year Of The Knives" "Break It Down Again".

[@lucijarabrenovic201]

I was overjoyed when the TFF reunited. They are finishing a new album by the end of this year. Their live performances are amazing, they still sound great. Curt Smith and his daughter Diva did a beautiful cover for "Mad world" during the quarantine. Check it out. Also look for Spotify landmark: Tears for fears. Many people comment that they have changed a lot, 35 years have passed, haven't they? They look great, they sound great still.

[@Pulsar77]

Don't forget the fan favorite 'The Working Hour'. Should've been a single.

[@malcolmsoh5648]

I love Badman's Song especially the live version at Knebworth.

[@thomaslim7702]

The whole Seeds of Love album is a TFF masterpiece!

[@mandysmith1756]

All of those are great songs but let's face it Tears for Fears are just brilliant all over.

My favorite Tears for Fears song. I feel it when ever the intro starts.

[@evhleppard]

Got married in 2005. We had this song blazing out as we walked out in a shower of confetti from the hotel we got married in. We loved the almost church bell like intro at the begining. It looked awesome on our wedding video

[@burstthroughtheconcrete]

My favorite Tears for Fears song. It's just...it's absolute magic. They were part of the soundtrack of my childhood. Their songs were always so emotional, passionate, and sometimes, aspirational. Loved them then. Love them now.

[@joythornz]

Mad World, Pale Shelter, Mother's Talk, Change Sowing the Seeds of Love. TFF's songs are like Pringles, once you pop, you can never stop.

[@sdevouard]

So happy to see young people discover and appreciate bands that have been with me since I was 15 in 1983. Roland Orzabal (lead singer on Head Over Heels) and Curt Smith (lead singer on Everybody Wants to Rule the World) split up after their 3rd Beatle-sque album The Seeds of Love in 1989 (listen to the track of the same name, as well as Women In Chains with the soul voice of Oleta Adams and the beats of french drummer Manu Katché). Orzabal went on with 2 albums under the TFF name in the 90s, « Elemental » and « Raoul and the Kings of Spain ». Then they re-united at the beginning of the 2000s with another Beatle-sque album « Everybody loves a happy ending », and are still touring together these days. Check out the video recorded by Curt Smith and his daughter during the confinment, where they played « Mad World », a single from TFF 1st album « The Hurting » back in 1983. Enjoy, man ;)

[@robertreichle1]

This was always my favorite of their songs. Never missed this video when it was on MTV. And I grew up to marry a librarian/archivist.

They shot this video at a library in Toronto the day after they performed live at Massey Hall in 1985. Woman In Chains is another great Tears For Fears song.

[@emcrosenberg]

Dude, you just watched/listened to an all time masterpiece. both visual and audio. This song is so everlasting it outshines a lot of other "greatest hits" of the time that just faded away (*this was not considered a huge hit when released) . You will never get tired of listening to that song as it depicts the human condition , our journey through life , being early clueless to looking back on it all and wondering how it all went by so fast.

[@h.c4898]

1984-90 that was their peak. There was a huge transition in music in early 90s. Techno/House/rap (internationally) took over. Tears force fears, Bruce hornsby, simply red, simple minds etc... were really the last of their breeds going into the early 90s.

[@hekuboshi]

This is my favorite of theirs. Sowing the seeds of love and mad world are must do songs.

[@peacetoyou63]

I’m so glad you LOVE them too! I was born in the early 60s so much of my musical taste runs to 60s & 70s “classic rock”. TFF blew me away in the 80s! They are still on several of my playlists that I listen to on the regular. ✌🏼♥️🎼
