  • i love Roland's hat

  • Dropped straight from Music Heaven...

  • 14 people didnt take the advice

  • absolutely timeless

  • music used to be a great thing, these modern rap "artists" and douchebags are talentless hacks, these guys r where it's at.

  • 14 people can't listen to advice&if they listen to the lyrics of this song, they may get something out of it.

  • ahhh, when music had lyrics and words that had a story behind it not just little cute teenagers with no talent who think their in love with every song thats written, I surely miss the 70's and 80's.

  • *sigh* the 70's, 80's and 90's will be unique. It will be in my heart till the day I die. I hate the music industry today. They're just bringing in talentless, autotune-using dumbfucks

  • @Awesomeduud good stuff's just harder to find. run a search for "Twin Shadow". Album's a year old but you'll swear it's from 1988

  • Truly one of the "Very Best 80's Music Groups!"

  • My daughter just got married

    This reminds me of them being so young and in love

    brings tears to my eyes

  • only thing i want in life is to fall in love and get married

  • WTF.. Why only when a video plays in Vevo it never loads and plays without stopping?? VEVO SUCKS ASS!

  • Roland and Curt look unhappy in this video...maybe because they were about to split, which they did in 1991. But I'm glad they reunited.

  • I saw them on this tour from the 3rd row. It was amazing (except for the girl directly behind me screaming at the top of her lungs through nearly the whole show). Would love for them to come to Houston again.

  • This song shows a lot of wisdom.

  • 0:52 looks like Nicko McBrain

  • I wish I was born during the 80's..

  • @andres65080 My high school years were in the 80's and it was amazing. The music was pure and fun. I really miss it. They don't make music like that anymore. You have great taste!

  • @andres65080 Good enough to appreciate the 80s. 

  • Ahhhh, 80's flash back.... wow, if I only knew the power of those lyrics back in the day! Love the song....Tears For Fears rawked.

  • Fantastic song. I love the music and the vocals are awesome.

  • They don't record the good stuff anymore ! Thanks for the video, Tears For Fears are one of my faves from the 80's, it still has the same effect on me but even deeper today.

  • Another "Beautiful" song performed by "One Hell Of A Talented Group!" :)

  • Remember I was here.Thai 5:27PM 9/5/2011

  • Comment removed

  • "This could be our last chance...when are we gonna make it work"...no truer words..

  • 12 idiots..

  • 22 years ago. Oceans under my bridge, most of which hasn't been all that good. If only we could all turn back the clock just one time.

  • 12 people were never young at heart !!

  • Tears For Fears Sound is so amazing..

  • Beautiful!

  • One of the GREATEST songs EVER written!

  • I miss the 80's I'm still young that will never change

  • 12 people have become curmudgeons.

  • A spiritual song for the soul. It spoke to me when I was in my 20s. And now that I'm older, the truth of the song's message resonates even deeper in my heart.

  • I got to see them for free at the beginning of the year. Man weren't I happy! These are the icons of the 80s and I wasn't born to see them and I feel that I got a wonderful opportunity to see these great singers. Thank you 987.9 WMMO for free concert series! :)

  • at 20, i remember listening to this in my Z28 in 1990 now i'm 41 & still trying to make it work.

  • THis could be my last chance!! Great lyrical track reminding us that life is way to short! & to never rest on your Laurels.

  • this songs brings back memories, just graduating high school. starting out in the world. hahaha, great memories...lol

  • This song brings back memories of saving my marriage and making it work while we had the opportunity.

  • Hurry up and put these guys into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! They are so good...great, great memories!

  • Happy 50th birthday Curt Smith/24 Jun

  • i love TFF, especially the songs sung by curt smith

  • Stunning!

  • I Swear The Piano Part Sounds Like Kanye's Coldest Winter.

  • @1Luislopez1 Kanye's Colest Winter sounds like this FTFY

  • @sesophisticate I agree with you on playing it safe as you get older. it seems we have a lot more to lose than we did in our youth. but don't you sometimes just wanna say F*uck it, why the hell not?" lol.

    youth can be a very brave thing. I miss my youthful adventures. watching on the sidelines these days :(

  • @lacviet Haha! How very true! Except that sometimes I still feel like I did when Everybody Wants To Rule The World came out, despite being almost 40 and already partially arthritic and whatever other ailment I'm trying to ignore. Viva Peter Pan-syndrome! LOL

  • Its almost as if they know this is it for the 1st round of TFF. "working hour" is over. the fighting going on between roland and curt, "when we gonna make it work?" The last word sung by curt as a TFF member "Advice" yet it sounds like "goodbye"

    Am glad theyve reunited.

  • Great song.Fantastic.Shades of jazz in the piano part.What is that last chord they're playing?

  • This could be our last chance....

    When we gonna make it work?

    Words of wisdom right there.......

  • Truely a wonderful song, hits very close to ones heart, in my opinion, a song for the ages

  • la morena es Oleta Adams....y el tema es un clásico imperdible....

  • What is the woman singing in the backgrounds name?

  • @mopman90125  Oleta Adams

  • Fuck you vevo with your fucking ads..I refuse to watch this video because of it.

  • @Algonkin1964 Actually,they didn't show an ad prior to this.Not when I watched it,anyway.

  • @Capcoor It does for me...each time.

  • @Algonkin1964 The first time (in a while) I watched this video,there was no ad. The very next time,there was.

  • @Capcoor It just did the same to me... no ad!! This is nonsense... ok... we are both right. Peace!!

  • The young at heart need it too....

  • favorite line from this song: "Love is a promise, love is a souvenir. Once given, never forgotten, never let it disappear." Very poetic and beautiful.

  • You bust the car, Progressive busts the moves.

  • absolutely beautiful music.. 

  • @thatvinguy unfortunately never.

  • love tears for fears music ,this is a wonderfull song and video :)

  • I despise the ads that run at the beginning of these videos. I won't patronize the companies or their products that place them there. They can go fuck themselves.

  • they are the baddest group since the beatles and very similar yet better in my opinion i hope they make more albumns

  • I cannot tell the difference in Roland and Curt's voice!

  • This is the best love song ever!

  • I can't believe I just heard this song yesterday for the first time on Sirius XM/radio and I loved it.

  • Oleta Addams on piano!

  • Superbe !! On y croit .....

  • Superbe !!!!

  • 'Love is a promise. Love is a souviner. Once given - never forgotten....." I will never forget how I felt for you Jenny.

  • Nice song

  • This song is super smooth. Like Steely Dan played by a younger generation.

  • sín duda una de las mejores canciones del grupo, es excélente en su parte musical así como la letra, es un ícono de la música de los 80's lastima , se adelantarón a su tiempo .

  • sin duda una de las mejores canciones del grupo es excelente en su parte musical asi como la letra es un icono de la musica de los 80's lastima , se adelantarón a su  tiempo .

  • If you went through the eighties try not to get a good memory watching this, you can't do it. Great decade music wise ayway

  • listen to nuances nothing else matters (metallica cover)

  • beautiful music! reminded me of my fifteen years, the best in a person's life

    from Brasil....

  • I agree with the comments lived in miami dor over 20 years , never been back think4tomorrow .. I think this either coral gables or coconut grove

  • "while they play mothers and fathers, we play little boys and girls; when we going to make it work?" NEVER!

  • @thatvinguy

    A drastic and fundamental change unfortunately. But I honestly think we as humanity are headed for another Dark Ages. Apologies for being so pessimistic. :)

  • 10 people have misunderstood the advice.

  • I've heard this song for like 50 times today and yesterday. I'm addicted to good music!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • too idilic this song..too much hopes, too much "honeY" and too much "promises" ..Do America is till the "mecca" to realize all the hopes to all the people? This seems an Ode to Miami! But what about the FACTS? What about the realities of those pple who thougth they could get the american dream? I wonder if they can sing this kind of tunes after all the facts..after the inmigration laws, the massive and permanent higher unemployment levels, Too much dreams and the less facts, come on guys!

  • Is that Oleta Adams?

  • Oh how I love this song!! Wow, it really takes me back to a time when I was truly happy and full of true innocence. I miss those days so much. My heart just aches for those days. What a time that was. There was such a magic in the air back then that you just cant feel today and that is a real shame. I was 18 when this song came out and it is funny how time changes you. The way you feel inside and the way you view the world. Missing those days forever but hold the memories in my heart forever! ♥

  • @thatvinguy non-commercial trance does this very well

  • @thatvinguy

    Connor Oberst. 'nuff said.

  • wow...20 years ago!! i wasted a lot of time in those 20 years.

  • @somewhatlongdong its 22 years lol. Amazing still though

  • @somewhatlongdong youre not alone brother.

  • @thatvinguy I agree 100%, however I believe such music is out there even today, for everyone to seek (...and you shall find). Yes it is harder because the world had become noisier than before. But it is there, just keep listening ;)

  • 9 are musicaly challenged.

  • this song was released in February 1990 and not 1989

  • I LOVE THIS SONG IS WONDERFUL! <3

  • has anybody noticed that VEVO buys views? Look at the graph and it just jumps from 0 to 600,000. Almost every VEVO video is like that.

  • try Asian women and sucess your life lushfmlk.info

  • Not much of a Tears for Fears fan...but this is good!

    @thatvinguy I agree...modern music is lacking in talent!

  • "Love is a promise, love is a souvenir once given, never forgotten, never let it disappear"- John Lennon

  • Awesome melody & harmony, great groove, lyrics, so well played and produced I wish there was a video for "Bad Man's song"

  • @thatvinguy i'm afraid this class of music will never return..

  • Classic

  • @thatvinguy Oh yeah the 80's had all the great songs :)

  • when I listen to this kind of wonderful music.....Lady gaga appears to me as a real "nothing" *_*

  • @thatvinguy Believe it or not, this class of music, songwriting and creativity never left... the difference is that it does not get supported and promoted like it used to. It's out there but you're NEVER going to find it unless you look. You won't hear it on mainstream radio or see it on tv, but it's out there trust me.

  • Latinos Unidos+Tears for Fears=Advice for the Young at heart

  • MARAVILLOSA

  • Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful,

  • @TheManuT4F I completly agree with you 100%

  • a better song and video combination than this classic is very hard to find :)) I loved it on release and now time has passed I realise just how brilliant this song was :))

  • Excellenteeeeee amigos..que temaaaaa..me encanta al igual que woman in chains..pero NO he podido encontrar el video amigops..una alludita. porfas.

  • This Song and Video carry very profound meaning for me.This video has footage from the OLD Miami/Dade County which I remember from my youth; Long before commercialization ruined that area AND - long before divisive and hateful things were being said about Foreign Nationals coming to America to contribute and TRUE Americans were willing to embrace those who went to Miami to begin a new life.Back then,it was like living in a different moral dimension where EVERYONE was welcome.I miss those days.

  • @think4tomorrow79 sounds to m like you miss the 80's

  • @think4tomorrow79 Im not Amercan Im Australian,Ihave always liked this song also,yes this country also went trough these times My parents told me not to mix with foreiginers as they were differant and not like us good people, luckely I did not do this and have many friends ranging from lily white to jet black.

  • @critchley3819 I am glad you didn't listent to your parents .. in spite of they think they dont alway know what is best ..

  • @think4tomorrow79 I bet that was Miami !!!!

  • @think4tomorrow79 I thought it was the complete opposite. I was there when you had to walk your bicycle two blocks to the strip cause of all the glass and bottle tops to get to the beach and it was vacant from north to south

    somedays. Tony Montana was King and kids drove around in Lamborginis and lots of colombian drug dealers and the Cubans were such a new people. I dont know the new miami.So many places gone!

  • At 3:12 the mans wearing a Guns "N" Roses shirt. It should be tears for fears. Anyone Agree?

  • @TommyXSonnyXSmith Yes you right.

  • TEMAZO , SON GENIALES

  • ...SENCILLAMENTE ...I LIKE  IT !!!

  • 8 crazy people...

  • beautiful song from an underrated album. the chords and production are so complex, I hate how stripped down and "garagey" music is today.

  • It's one of the few bands that bring wisdom along with every line.

  • It's one of the few bands that bring wisdom along with every line.

  • This takes me back to FT. Lauderdale in the early 90's

    to my 1st,- maybe 2nd love, driving to Key West for the first time with the top down and that natural high you get with great music and sunshine. Listening to this song takes me right back to 19 years ago!! WOW

  • @cleanone4me Awesome response. I can totally relate. I am now a part-time resident of Palm Beach and Lake Worth reminds me a bit of the OLD LAS OLAS in my fondest memories. Lauderdale is barely what and how I remember her. WE BOTH were lucky enough to catch one best Florida's any human could ever have seen.

  • Fucking class

  • Ilike the sounds and the meanings of the song but I can't forget those years when I was just married at 1990 and this video is very wonderfull

  • Na minha oinião Tears for Fears é uma das melhores bandas do mindo!

    Impecável!!!

  • VEVO FUCKIN SUCKS !!!!!!!

  • wow my god, this song is for all my life! very beautiful, song,lyrics and video!

  • "The song expresses a desire to grow up and get things together - to let go of the past. I think it's just an awareness of getting older, that's what it stems from. And also an awareness that certain aspects of you aren't getting older." -- Roland Orzabal

    I have to admit even though I know it's Curt singing I always picture Roland, it's definitely the kind of theme he tended to address. :)

  • Didn't know Curt sang this one...pleasant surprise!

  • VERY BEAUTIFUL SONG!!! IT SHOWS THEIR MORE SOFTER SIDE THAN USUAL!!! LOVE IT ALL THE WAY!!!

  • WOW! This is real music to me. Musicians from the 80s put their hearts into it , in my opinion.

  • Linda música.... Quando eu a ouvi pela primeira vez, tive uma sensação que jamais esquecerei.... Eu tinha 1 anos.... Saudades....

  • it's make me remindthe nights from 1990 when I was just married with my wife but always listened to the music and this song is very nostalgic

  • I can't stop listening to it... I'm never tired of the molody, the lyrics... This song makes me feel soo good, it's so relaxing. Oh God, I was only 1 year old when this song was released, and now it's one of my favs.

  • @hernita88 Yeah that's where I'm at right now, I keep listening to it in the car, lol.

  • really, I cannot stop watching this.

  • one of their finest moments ...superb video :))

  • This song is amazing, one of TFF finest achievements.

  • no cabe duda que los años ochentas crearon grandes temas , los cuales ahora los usan como covers o remix, los ochentas nunca moriran,

  • It was awesome seeing Kurt on the tv show Psych a few weeks ago!!!

  • Its sounds different from album version, what mix is this?

  • Tears for fears es uno de los mejores grupos musicales, el sonido es unico.

  • the year 1990 the nights are so better to listen the music and this song is wonderfull the great song of tears for fears

  • "Un conseil pour les jeunes mariées !"

  • he kinda sounds like george michael. these guys have such beautiful voices i think

  • It's amazing how time changes so many things! I still look pretty good, but I don't know how that 15 year old from the 80's turned into a full fledged 39 year old man.....wow! And it's extraordinarily odd and disconcerting at times to see ones parents aging........thank you for posint this insightful video! Blessings to you!

  • mis canciones favoritas son:  sowing the seeds of love,shout, advice for the young at hearts and all SONGS OF TEARS FOR FEARS

  • fantastica x sempre

  • What a great song. So laid back.

    I could be happy ..... fantastic.

  • Nossa voltei no tempo... já não fazem mais cantores como antigamente! Simplesmente maravilhosa!!!
