  I'd forgotten how good the guitars are in this song.

  This song and album will always remind me of the summer of 1985, being a teenager with my life still in front of me and not a care in the world.

  The line, “so sad they had to fade it” was literally about the radio edit of their song Shout, which they wanted to go on for longer.

  This song always takes me to another place and time... It's hypnotic.

  The lead singers, Roland Orzabal &amp; Kurt Smith were childhood friends from school and grew up in Bath, England. They both shared an interest in music and could both sing, they were both members of their first band, &apos;Graduate&apos;, however they disolved that band and created Tears for Fears in 1981.<br>They have remarkably similar voices which leads many people to think they may have been related, but they were not.

  First scene is from the SoCal high desert. &nbsp;Who hasn&apos;t gotten gas at the dinosaur on the way to Palm Springs?

  Their song &quot;Shout&quot; was a very big hit too, and probably my favorite of theirs.

  Please remember, the music video, was in its infancy, and a new art form. As teens in the 80s we had radio, no other medium, and top 40 , the format was top 30 songs, plus 10 previous years hits..on repeat. Tears for r Fears when their sound came on in the mix, it&apos; was so unique, and an iconic early 80s tune. But the video back then &nbsp;, well, up to interpretation.. <br>Some videos , well ..😂❤

  Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal both were &quot;oursiders&quot; who befriended each other in school. They wrote great songs together, each singing on the songs they wrote. Like chocolate and peanut butter, some people prefer one over the other. They had a falling out and the group broke up for a while, but re-united in the early 2000&apos;s. Juat a great, great band.<br>Listen to Mad World, Pale Shelter, Broken, Woman in Chains, and so many others.
