[FlatLand43]

These guys are/were SOOOO...talented its astounding

[blica1]

the day you have musicianship, song writing ability, and musical discipline like this today, is the day that pope will acknowledge the fact that the vatican and all in it are the biggest crooks in the world ! ..NEVER  ! everything is rehashed, remixed, over dubbed, stolen, and mimicked terribly and is mediocre at best....pop music has gone to hell in a rusty boat and sinking faster than you can say ,shit !

[aindiandog]

@blica1

Absolutely! Well said. I'm glad to be one of the few that realizes this.

[TheTwilightalehouse]

@blica1 True.....

[gmansi]

@damespartan117 TOTALMENTE!!!

[mustfield]

Directly back to my youth ...

[VarshaT1]

Roland looks such a cute kid in all his close-ups in this video. You feel like going up on stage and pinching his cheeks!!!

[bahmccartneygibb]

Roland is sooo cute at 2:00-2:07! *---* Great song!

[youyouyouwhy]

cords plugged in... check.

[TEAcreativesUTube]

Curt & Roland plus wives used to come over to my house in Bath during the late 70's early 80's. Tthey enjoyed my hospitality...pool etc BUT WHEN I SAW CURT AT A PARTY in the HOLLYWOOD HILLS he completely blew me off...wanker. Roland was always the creative soul and gent anyway. My little sister f**ked them both in a Dallas hotel on tour!!! All coming out in a book called "Do I Know You?" soon. So one can talk about change alright...Curt changed into an arrogant arse...

[CelesteK]

@TEAcreativesUTube Thank you ever so much for sharing that. Like we really needed to know that. :P

[rg2027x]

Can you imagine a band like TFF coming out now? Natural talent & artistry like this doesn't happen anymore.

[trashcanalive]

I mastered this song on my daughter's glockenspiel. Obviously, they used a xylophone in the original recording but my daughter didn't have one of those.

[thebeatlespaulluv]

is it just me or is curt smith really rediculously sexy? :D

[BeauZough]

brilliant.

[pedrofaba]

i don't give a fuck about what anybody has to say,the 80's had the best music ever,punk,new wave,house,ska and good sex

[doctorwhonico]

@pedrofaba : don't forget to mention SYNTHPOP !!!!

[Knivesandpens1997]

he has such a nice face

[LeadernotLead]

I loved this band when I was growing up lol... Crazy to see my little sister singing ''shout'' from watching the new mtv show ''skins''. Brings back alot of memories of the best years of my life during the greatest times of music.

[pedrofaba]

@LeadernotLead --im with you,the 80's had the best music

[foreverlennon]

Tears fall from my eyes! TFF were/are awesome! Love them thn, love them now.

[gamingg0d6493]

THE ONLY REASON WHY I WATCHED THIS VIDEO IS TO STARE AT ROLAND WHY DONT THEY FILM IN ON HIM MORE IN OTHERS VIDS THEY DO I STILL LOVE THIS VID

[bigdsears]

his hair looks like it got hit by a scud missile

[garply101]

So many different instruments... you don't see that these days!

[steelyd2]

it's a marimba. sounds and looks nothing like a xylophone

[TheMechaunicorn]

Yup, probably the last time you'll see a xylophone on stage.

[luvanimals102]

Man I have been missing the 80's and Tears for Fears! Thanks for the great video and I agree with reggie46404, It was the best back then. Had the best time with the hair styles and clothes and of course the dance clubs. But I hope someday it comes back, I would love my kids to have the experience I had. But I have great memories and my IPOD has all the great 80's music!!! Rock on!!!

[cirus101]

TFF RULES

[markhitsdrums]

lol this is so bad! im glad i was born in 1991 :D i got to skip an awful era of music, sloppily composed with every new electronic effect made.

[booger4421]

@markhitsdrums 1991? You missed the 60's, 70's and 80's. You poor thing.

[Geril1969]

Ich liebe "Tears for Fears" - eine großartige Band - phantastische Lieder. Die Euphorie die sie in den 80ern bei den jungen Leuten auslösten war riesig. "Tears for Fears" stand im Stil und der Qualität immer für sich. Lustig ist dieser Video - Roland ist so eine Art Paul ... *gg

[xcraig1961]

where tears for fears are concerned we dont wat to CHANGE , best band of the 80`s 90`s 2000000000

[CelesteK]

@xcraig1961 It actually did change in the 1990s when Curt left the band supposedly because of "creative differences" but I think there's a lot more reasons why Curt left in the first place than what he's actually willing to tell.

[kkdkk7]

@SoAClanCam

err.. so you really believe that guy played the synthesizers by tapping the xylophone sticks on the keyboard ?

[kkdkk7]

.. And its surely too funny and difficult to use the xylo sticks to play the synthesizer at 2:30 ! LOL !!

.. must be play-acting I guess..

[kkdkk7]

I think its lip-synced -

..at 2:53 the xylophone guy on the right side has stopped banging the xylo but the xylo sound is still heard ..

[thisisjustme1]

Oh Curt Smith is such a looker here !

[moz101]

@thisisjustme1 

[bokatadechicle92]

@thisisjustme1 será Roland, no?

[MrSKINFLICK]

Live or half live ? I suppose so !

[foxbasealpha]

@MrSKINFLICK Top of the Pops was always lip sync'ed. Curt plays the bass and yet he's only singing here.

[MrSKINFLICK]

@foxbasealpha: Okie dokie ! I am glad that lots of the stuff in my channel IS live - because the "silly" copyright companies won´t allow hardly anything else on YT......LOL

[dumdumfriend]

Fantastic song, I just found out about this band, looking forward to more catchy songs like this one!

[bullbreeduk]

class :-)

[Tony16467]

Fantastic free flowing pop love it

[calumastra]

Really love this track. Electro poptastic!

[JBClv80s90s2mch]

Honestly, It's definitely hard to change!!!

[BugKilledTangerine]

OMG They're both so young and cute here!

[IrmaDoMetal]

I love this song very much......... tears for fears..... ♥

[itsfun2youtoob]

@IrmaDoMetal where did you get the heart?

[IrmaDoMetal]

@itsfun2youtoob copy and paste =) ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ *-*

[itsfun2youtoob]

@IrmaDoMetal Awwwwww thank you!!!! heres an old fasioned one for ..YOU! <3 =-)

[michplusdarren]

Can't beat the 80s for music ...

[BluBel123]

I like the singer's hairstyle,those 80's micophones were cool!

[bigdsears]

Did he comb his hair with a brick? i mean, come on dude, jell that shit up

[ffejbboc]

@bigdsears now that's funny!

[MsPink68]

@bigdsears jell ur face

[shazam75]

@bigdsears that was the fashion then.

[masterbutan]

Roland Orzabal @ 2:49 guitar solo!

[chucke1963]

Who's playing the bass?

[OSDCrusher]

@chucke1963 The bass is on playback

[RaphaDomeniche]

There are kids playing and singing! hahaha! Fantastic song!

[rossdeluxe]

Big Roland!

[letcadaverous]

nice juno -- never played it with mallets though...

[blackbird69xxx]

Fooking  awesome, and im a 41 yr old straight guy :)

[r3n3369]

ugh they were incredibly HOTT!!i'd bone im just sayin

[MsPink68]

oh God...turn back the hands of time....please?

[steviej815]

Unbelievably, I don't know either of these two guys names. I loved their music in the eights, but they never done interviews. I think one of their names is Kurt, but I could be wrong.

[xPikmin2x]

@steviej815 Yes the baby faced singer with the awesome voice is Curt with a "C" and the other awesome singer /songwriter is named Roland..magnificent! Listen to Pale Shelter song and be amazed .....

[KerryMack4]

Awesome, I miss them and love this song! Take me back to 1986! Reminds me of Shermer Illinois, piano ties and John Hughs films!

[TYPHOON1B]

They still are good,they just dont make 'em like this anymore.Awesome!

[justlstn]

GREAT POSTING!!! TEARS FOR FEARS CAME ON THE SCENE AND MUSIC WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. VERY POWERFUL MEANING BEHIND THEIR SONGS. THEY HAD AND STILL HAVE A BIG FOLLOWING... AND THEY DESERVE IT.

[MarkMuses]

@justlstn Not just Tears for Fears by a LONG way, all though they are near the summit. Check Gary Numan, OMD, Ultravox, Kraftwerk, Flock of Seagulls.. there's others ringing in my head, er, Visage, Depeche Mode, Joy division. New Order, Human League, Heaven 17, might be one or two more ;-)

[justlstn]

@MarkMuses Hey, thanks for the reply! Yes, I like other bands, too... believe me. I've listened to most of them. BUT... Tears For Fears is special among them. Really special. Their songs deal with deep life issues and their lyrics shoot from the heart. Many of the other bands didn't do that... except for Thompson Twins. They are in my Top 5.

[MarkMuses]

@justlstn Further to last, simply wikipedia synthpop. TONS of it. Kick off with Fiction Factory: Feels Like Heaven (volume up; enjoy). Tears for Fears are great but they are not the only pioneers. Mr Numan probably holds that honour most with "Are Friends Electric".

[justlstn]

@MarkMuses I think all of those are good, my friend. But Tears For Fears is special. Ya know? Take the CD Songs from the Big Chair... sit back... put it in your player... press PLAY.... and take a sweet ride on the waves of music... they sweep you away.... it is a moment in life to enjoy, so enjoy my friend.....

[vior4ever]

@justlstn : Big and loyal following :-)

[eternalove4DM]

when its all too late....

[MsPink68]

it's hard not to remember this duo because aside from having good voices, they somehow have those cute, simple moves that goes perfectly well with the rhythm of their songs...

[missburn101]

wow i am trapped in the 80s forever and ever.thanks. TFF

[MrGarratt1]

I think my sister recorded this very same recording from Top of the pops in the 80's on 'Beta Max'!!!

[dot4design]

i was surprised to hear this beautiful new sound from Tears For Fears in the early eighties...and this was just the beginning...MORE FANTASTIC ´80´s music on my channel!!!!

[bigdsears]

WTF is up with home-dude's hair? Looks like it was hit by a scud missle

[Zeldaartist]

@bigdsears fuck you, TFF are good you are not

you have no place insuting my band!

[WeaselHalfbreed]

I've been searching this for a week, and never knew it was these guys. Great song.

[0000allofus]

i love tears for fears <3

[RAHobby]

gives me chills



[r3n3369]

damm i love TEARS FOR FEARS. they r amazing nd cute of course

[MsPink68]

curt smith looks like an angel...mwah!

[AimeeLG11]

i love Tears for Fears!

[joannasunday]

I LOVE these guys! Hey, all you so-called homosexual-haters - what are you doing alone in your rooms watching this? Getting off? Ha, ha.

[Tom777CA]

I saw them live at the Pacific Amp in CM .. back in 1985 !!! Great show

[MsPink68]

very cute boys! mwaaah! they just had a concert in manila and it was amazing! check it out!

[minily]

I so love the changing hairstyles, the dance moves, the single earring, and of course the music.

[xPikmin2x]

@minily  Isn't Curt dressed just perfectly? With his denim jacket,ect.? His hair is the best! Wonder who braided his hair for him?

[xPikmin2x]

to radcright ,I really love that quote! I too am a conservative.Only your approach to the homosexuals is all wrong. Theyll just shut you out,,I take a different approach one more thoughtful..more..trying to relate...hoping a light will go on and they will change !

[ninelivecat]

I just realised this sounds a lot like The Police - Wrapped Around Your Finger.

It must use the same chords it's faster though

[radicright]

I'm a conserative. All honest conseratives hate faggots. I do not appogise for my remarks. If I were to quote any one person it would be Nathan hale:" I regret that I have but one llfe to give for my country". If telling the truth is grounds for retribution I gladly except the consequnces.

[randumPURRSON]

@radicright What the hell is a "conserative" and how do you "except the consequnces"? *grammar nazi*

[radicright]

Bunch of faggots!

[ufewl]

@radicright You're a faggot, you big spastic.

[radicright]

@ufewl Thank you! I always enjoy getting under liberals skins.

[ufewl]

@radicright ha ha.

[r3n3369]

love their hairstyles

[jcee]

Good single.Lead singer looks like Man Utd's John O'Shea or historian Bettany Hughes wee brother!

[coolbluelights]

wow he looks like elvis!

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

Sigh + The best, really, the best. "Change" is one of the most important tracks ever recorded. And rhis version is so magical. +

[steelsfirm]

Is this the Conservative party campaign song for the Election 2010?

[ginestra73]

I love this song

[martymarts67]

its all too late classic album!

[perpetual61]

Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal were ahead of their time.

[crzcloud]

Heard it before, it's live, awesome song!

[aardvarktff]

I love this version - never heard it before now!

[R4D01234]

here Orzabal looks like scared baby

[chapmanstickman]

yeah that actually is the reason, I'm not sure why the musicians union made that a rule though.

[Ekenssj]

lol , they are kids

[johnjezebel]

i think

that the reason it sounds different to the original record

is that they had to re-record the song for top of the pops performance.

the

musicians union made all band do it around that time i believe.

[alaina66]

I LOVE this version! Very different!

[ImOnlyInsane]

Fantastic.

[jdm06evo1]

That song is tight!!!

[braguldo666]

curt smith & roland orzabal - two music geniuses of the greatest decade... the 80's. thanks for posting! ;-)

[KizzyDog01]

True! So very true...

[R4D01234]

TFF 4LIVE

[c4t4stHroPh3]

awsome tune!

[jag714u]

wow great song, miss the 80's nothing compares to the 80's music scene, you can feel the music back tham

[reggie46404]

@jag714u Too right partner. The 80's were the best. Hair bands, Michael, Madonna, Prince, Wham! it was all good back then. Good good music.Then the 90's came and we had more and more good music but nothing did compare to the 80's. When MTV really got big and only played music videos now it is an eye sore to watch now with all of the reality crap you have to have digital cable to watch videos on MTV. What a joke it has become. If you want your MTV give me a thumbs up.

[jag714u]

wow I miss the 80's nothing compares to that music scene back than

[wisage3]

[b]mckessa[/b]

as if today all the singers of rock bands did not look gay ...

[nesplayer94]

@wisage3 Funny how my classmates think I'm gay for listening to this when they listen to a bunch of sweaty, muscular guys with their shirts off head banging. Kind of ironic isn't it?

[wisage3]

@nesplayer94 I live in Brazil and in my town this is a very common sound in the bars, persons 15 to 45 years mingle in these pubs to enjoy that kind of sound you here is called "techno". Visit us at the next FIFA World Cup. Hugs from Brazil.

[msfish66]

Whilst tuning out on the treadmill the other morning at the gym, I was watching the Music Channel and lamenting on the "girlie" appearance of modern musicians...tonight I've been cruising the highway of nostalgia by searching out the videos of my favourite bands from the 80's and landing back into reality with a resounding THUD...awesome, HELL YES... butch? NO!!

[frayedsocks]

@msfish66 I wish I could reminisce of a time before I was born. My generation's got some ehhh music... and a lot more of WTF FAIL music. But that's a good point you made about the styles.

[anerol0808]

es muy buen grupo curt smith y roland tiene una voz genial los amo

[mckessa]

These guys looked gay, but they were good....

[jdrajdrajdra]

or is he holding the downside up?!?
