TEARS FOR FEARS - Sowing the Seeds of Love | FIRST TIME HEARING REACTION

[@murraytown4]

Very Beatlesque.

[@floorticket]

Been a long time since I've heard this. So Beatles like. "I Am The Walrus" comes to mind.

[@christophersimpson9245]

Absolutely intended to be "Beatles like" even down to the trumpet from Penny Lane, and visually on the album cover.

[@lem01ne]

Very Sgt. Peppers-ish, love it!

[@anthonyblakely399]

🎉🎉🎉One of my all-time favorite Rock bands of the 80's.....and one of my all-time favorite songs from the band. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@rhondamcewananderson3968]

My daughter liked me to play this, on the way to kindergarten....🙂♥️

[@threekidzmom04]

☺☺

[@michaelbriefs9764]

More Tears for Fears? Yes, please! Please do the song "The Year of the Knife"!! It's a song on side 2 of the Sowing the Seeds of Love album, from 1989! You will love it!

[@stevetrivett9334]

Tremendous tune 👍👍👍

[@jornspirit]

this song was meant to be an homage to the Beatles & the flower power generation... there's many pastiches on Beatles' songs and studio techniques and life philosophy... - rhythm and singing: 'I'm the Walrus' - Bach trumpets in the middle part: 'Penny Lane' - drums recorded in-reverse: was a Beatles invention - there are whiffs of 'Hey Jude' in the overall atmosphere - title: 'All you need is love' and general hippy philosophy - cover varied and colourful: reminds of covers 'St.Pepper' and 'Magical Mystery Tour'; details: sun - 'Here comes the Sun'; flowers: hippy culture of wearing them in the hair ...I'm sure there's plenty more hidden in it... 🌻💖🥀

[@Vesparado]

Yes! One of my fave TFF. Next up- "Pale Shelter" and "Head Over Heals".

[@sourisvoleur4854]

So Beatlesy. With a ladle of All the Young Dudes.

[@BabblePaddle]

This album was directly inspired by the '67 Beatles 's period! As soon as I heard this album I enjoyed it!! Many years ago...

[@rodneygriffin7666]

Two paths. Love. Hate. Your choice. If you truly are free.

[@richw7743]

These guys sound just as good live in concert. Great production values. Just a fantastic group.

[@CharleneRoozRE]

The video captures the songs meaning perfectly. Love this song. ♥️

[@parinthianquattropani9071]

Tears for Fears - Break it Down Again

[@stephenmcconway4894]

You should listen to the song, Woman in Chains! From the same album

[@clifton8929]

The greatest Beatles song they didn't write. An amazing song from a great band. Keep bringing the joy, Shawn. It's appreciated.

[@fayesouthall6604]

One of the greatest bands of the 1980’s.

[@kathyedleman633]

Check out "Head over Heals ".

[@mickr1448]

Woman in chains is ace, best song they ever did in my opinion, however this is a good song, a shameless Beatles rip and the band admit it as the fab 4 were one of their major influences, love their honesty, love tears for fears ❤

[@alistairmcdougall8390]

Woman in chains from the same album ❤

[@z-man2343]

Being a tad older when TFF hit the scene, I never gave them much respect...until I heard this song. Oh my! Not only are they extraordinarily talented, but they could also pay extreme tribute to their heroes, in this case The Beatles. This song remains on my road trip playlist some 30 years later...yeah, it's that good.

[@birdie1975]

Shawn you are really the best at recognizing what the songs mean. I appreciate hearing your thoughts and interpretations. Thank you for all you do for your channel! I look forward to your reactions✌🏻

[@byromania]

The video really is a great accompaniment to this song.

[@flubblert]

Great psychedelic, Beatlesque anthem. "Everybody Wants to Rule the World " or "Shout"... next Tears for Fears.

[@bobguitarlearner8007]

such a great song. equevilent to the undisputed champs - The Beatles

[@FrankUli]

the harmony of this group didn't play 2nd fiddle to anyone, I loved listening to them. again thank you for sharing this with all of us.

[@SpuzzyLargo]

Yep! The beginning is a brief nod to The Beatles' "I Am the Walrus."

[@kmach1000]

Good song, but please, "Woman in chains", next!

[@mattleppard1970]

Wonderful ❤

[@leslapins7617]

Wonderfulsong by a wonderful band.

[@scifimonkey3]

Best 80s band period!

[@kevinl2578]

Exactly 100%!!!

[@laurakali6522]

Perfect pop song.

[@RonaldCanfield-m2r]

"Woman in Chains" next.

[@ohfour-seven6228]

Tears For Fears is one of my favorites, they put out great music. From this album, definitely need to check out Woman in Chains, one of the most fantastic songs ever. Not to be missed!

[@msfoodiediva]

Enjoyed the song..I liked when disturb covered one of their songs

[@cindyp1033]

Great album to listen to straight through ❤

[@ploppill34]

❤🧡💛💚💙💜

[@annewoodard6803]

Now go watch the video! 😁💖

[@kimberelyanngunter6341]

Pale Shelter & Change please😊

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Such an awesome homage to the Beatles, while still keeping their own style. The official video is really cool visually & goes along really well, you should check it out on your own.

[@ikess7481]

Bob Seger - Sunspot Baby John Fogerty - Blueboy Hank Williams Jr. - Family Tradition I have numerous song requests that I wanted to mention 😂

[@mrbenn1489]

Am assuming "..kick out the style, bring back the jam...", is referring to Style Council and The Jam.

[@librarylady13]

❤❤❤

[@michaelbiggs7861]

Nice review. You should listen to the song that precedes it on the album, it's called Badman's Song and is a musical journey through all sorts of styles including gospel, it's a bit long coming in at over 8 minutes, but well worth it, Tears For Fears take the listener to church on Badman's Song.

[@oskarobit]

The best Beatles' song after The Beatles is this one.

[@byrontaylor3898]

Please try watching this song with the video. It's an experience.

[@jeffreywolff329]

It has real early 1980 Rap and Blues combined

[@chitownlee]

Actually the video version is the best.

[@davidspring5013]

🪡🥜💗

[@chicagojon1972]

I like the album version that you listened to, but you should watch the slightly shorter video. Quite a trip!

[@threekidzmom04]

Check out the video. It's very cool!

[@FTFLCY]

Should have done the video.

[@michaelescareno7048]

As others mentioned, big Beatles influence!!! Next should be "Woman in Chains", studio or music video. The music video is very good.

[@KingLeo-ng5tc]

Great reaction but you should have gotten the video ❤❤❤

[@steverakes6182]

I like your reactions, but you made a huge mistake by not using the official video with this one. Watch it and see.

[@hamnon7905]

🤭 "Promo sm"

[@glass2467]

This song heavily took from a few Beatles songs, almost out and out ripped off in several places. Good song though.

[@AirDOGGe]

Sorry, TFF fans. This one never clicked with me even though I heard it 100+ times on the radio. Not a go-to song for me.
