The beautiful song was secondary to what we were watching. When Lex leaned into Nick and emoted that she knew what he was feeling inside - and conveyed that feeling through a loving touch - The connection of two spirits in love - is the world's most beautiful thing. I would die - and go directly to heaven - if a woman looked at me that way.

In 1985, Adams was discovered by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, founders of the English band Tears for Fears, while she was performing in a hotel bar in Kansas City, Missouri, while they were on a US tour. Two years later, they contacted her to invite her to join their band as a singer and pianist on their next album, The Seeds of Love. In 1989, the album was released and the single "Woman in Chains", sung as a duet by Adams and Orzabal and with Phil Collins on drums, became her first hit. Adams embarked on a world tour with Tears For Fears in 1990, performing by herself as the supporting artist at the start of each show, and remaining onstage throughout the Tears For Fears set where she would provide piano and vocals.

What just happened? You just heard one of the best albums of the 80s. Interesting story about Oletta Adams: the band was touring their second album (Songs From The Big Chair) and they felt stuck to all the machines they used on stage, all the keyboards and sequencers and drum machines. One depressing night they stumbled into their hotel after the show and found this lady playing piano and singing songs for a living in the bar of the hotel and were amazed by her. After the tour they started working on this particular album and were getting nowhere and felt they were stuck in a rut and wanted to come up with a sound that was more organic. And then they remembered her and the way she made them feel and eventually tracked her down and invited her to become involved in the making of the album. Eventually she ended up playing on at least three songs and singing on the this song and the song Bad Man's Song and also came with them on tour. Then TFF had the genius idea of starting every show with Oleta singing the song I Believe (from their second album) after which the whole band would come on stage.

A lot of bands get known for their hits, but behind these often lays a very talented set of musicians and this track is just proof of it.

This Song and Toto‘s Rosanna are probably the best songs ever written in my humble opinion. They never get old and just take you away. Fun fact: Phil Collins played drums on this recording.

Just stunning piece of music, isn't it. The layering of sound is incredible. Tears is an amazing trip. Isn't it an absolute blessing to have people give you these gifts of music? Here's one for you.... On The Road by Max Webster.

Agreed on Woman in Chains. But On the Road is very meh.

Love, love, love this band! Saw them several times in concert. One of them was with Oleta Adams. Roland’s voice is phenomenal.... just as powerful live! There is not one song I don’t like throughout their entire career! Should check out Laid So Low(Tears Roll Down), Sketches of Pain, Standing on the Corner of the Third World

FYI - Tears for Fears has a brand-new album coming out in February 2022. They released the first single, The Tipping Point in October, and a couple of days ago, a second one called No Small Thing, which has a great video along with it!

It really is the the return of the king of songs just when you think it’s over it goes to another level and excites you over and over especially musically

guys. I just came across this on KZbin. Friday night after a hard week at work in a pressurised job I get a few beers and listen to my favourite music. watching you experience this song that I have loved since in came out really brought tears to my eyes. how brilliant is it. the lyrics are so deep and its incredible. crying probably because I could see how it made me feel sink in with another couple of people on screen was incredible. thanks x

Seeing a TFF show is an incredible experience. Sowing The Seeds of Love and Head Over Heels are my two favs.

I’m surprised you didn’t talk about the lyrics and the meaning behind them. Very strong message.

this song is consistently mentioned by sound engineers as one of the best engineered tracks ever. and it's a GORGEOUS song to begin with was the duo you were thinking hall & oates?
