  • I m without words...i remember when i was young (19 years old)...great song!!!!!!!

    Thank you so much Tears for Fears!!!!!!!

  • The Working Hour is quite extraordinary too. WH and FLW are so emotional, just like Memories fade and Day by day by day by day by day (Orzabal). Roland is a genious, comparable to Joakim Berg of Kent, the best emo-band of Sweden.

  • When I fancy about what kind of man I really want by my side, soon this song comes to my mind and I realize that I need someone with this sweet powerful voice, with a passionate heart, smart and sensitive enough to write a song like this one...

    OK..I need Roland!!

    I know!

    ahahhahah!

  • Beautiful song....Beautiful man......

  • This song is so delicate and ethereal. Like a spider web in the early morning. This song can melt the hardest of hearts.

  • One of the most soulful songs I have EVER heard

  • This gives me the shivers... I ADORE Roland and his supernatural voice. :)

  • Magic.

  • I listen to this whenever her memory haunts me.

  • Rolands voice is transcendent. He may be older and not sing those soaring vocals anymore but thank god he did!

  • He STILL sings those soaring vocals...I just heard and saw him in concert last week!

  • That makes me very happy. His vocals are glorious,as is he! Its sounds like you enjoyed the concert Unfortunately I'm to far away but I am happy to read all the posts from everyone able to attend.I have yet to hear anything negative...........

  • Listening to this 3 times a day will do any one some good.

  • This is a great song. From a great album. By a great band. What can I say? It`s just great!

  • this is the greatest apocalyptical song ever.

    Can't get enough of it, listen to it daily.

    Thank you ToF, you are amazing.

  • The best song I have ever heard in a live concert was this song. Powerful. They had a brass band that they had playing when the saint coming in... Wish I could see/hear it again

  • Its Rolands vocals that make this song as haunting and beautiful as it is.

  • If you listen to the passion in the songs Roland wrote with Nicky Holland - they wrote this song-- I think his affair was with Holland.

  • Hmm-very interesting. Wonder if anyone knows if Roland is still with his wife?  I don't see him wearing his wedding ring in the most recent videos of him here on YT.

  • Comment removed

  • Does he know women swoon over him this much??!! I mean, does he REALLY know? There's something about him that's just raw passion. I could look and listen to him all day!!!!!! SWOON!

  • absolutamente hermosa salgo fuera de este planeta cuando escucho esta cancion!!!!!!!!!!! hermosa

  • I feel my soul out of this world this song is greafull.......thanks TEARS. forever

  • Goodness! This man has a hypnotic hold on me! I've looking up everything ''Roland'' on the net for hrs! I need intervention and serious detoxing from him. Ugh!

  • :D You have lots of company :D

    When and if you get over him, let us all know the cure :D

  • His/their effect is actually detoxifying. TFF music/lyrics will help you unearth and remember your inner child which has been buried since your conception. When you were scolded and punished for doing the fun and playful things that children do, your inner child was shocked, stunned, and traumatized.

    Wake up, "break it down", and "See for yourself you have been sitting on a time bomb". End "The Hurting" of this "horrific dream".Your inner song has yet to be sung.

  • LOL

  • great song.....tears for fears forever.........

  • TFF rulez forever... i love this song

  • A timeless piece.

  • Pure commotion.

  • Magnifica

  • nice, nice, makes my soul weap !

  • Roland you rock what a voice .a Guy who puts his heart and soul into his Music for sure.I hope he never stops bringing enjoyment to his listeners.

  • Muito obrigada!!!

  • Good words to think about ...in time,for a lost love.

  • Best band ever! This song still makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck! I could never understand why they weren't bigger stars in their day

  • I wholeheartedly agree. But you know what, its the fact that they were underrated that makes me like them that much more!

  • Yes, you're right at least you could see them live and actually see them, as they played smaller venues.And not little dots in the distance.

  • Yeah, definitely! Once a band REALLY hits it big...it sorta loses the meanin. If you know what I mean. lol. It's not as special sometimes. NOt all the time. If these guys hat hit it big though, I would think they'd have still been just as appreciated.

  • Such simplicity, yet so deep. I can't describe the emotions that run through me when I listen to this song. Breathtaking!

  • Beautiful song.

  • Beautiful song. I wish people were more open to this kinda music instead of the crap you hear today.

  • What a beautiful song from a great band. Reminds me of my youth.

  • This is a beautiful song; Tears For Fears music helped me out when i was going through a hard time in my younger years; the lyrics and melody are inspirational; they have a few great songs.

  • Poesia pura!Roland é um gênio!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Poesia pura!Roland é um gênioooooooo!

  • Oh....sing it to me Roland! ssssso hot! wow!

  • Poetry and catharsis, a melodic melodrama and still - timeless - like the man.

  • I soooo agree with you! Roland IS truely timeless! Can you imagine a world without that amazing voice? Not to mention his lyrical style! No one writes like this man and no one ever will! It's time he got into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, don't you think?!

  • I certainly do!

  • Yes, Roland absolutely belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!! There is noone as talented, both with music and lyrics and with such a smooth and powerful voice. And what a vocal range!

  • This is Roland at his finest! A true genious!

    Thanks so much for posting this. I am truely moved by this song.

  • Wow Sis! You are so right! This is magic!

  • completely beautiful

  • utterly gorgeous

  • I love this song, Tears For Fears are wonderful, this music makes me fell as ...I can't explain, how I fell, it's really awesome

  • I love that tune. Thanks a lot for these great music...

  • a francy

  • Si! esta cancion fue mi inspiracion para declararmele a mi ahora esposa. Esta excelentisima!

  • tu esposa o la rola?

  • this is simply amazing...

  • ....

    .

    potessi dirti quello che nemmeno riesco a scriverti esiterei nel farlo.

  • how much I love you Roland...

  • Nas manhas de domingo sem voce Fer !Linda canção!!!!

  • Nas manhas de domingo sem voce Fonseca!Linda canção!

  • This has to be one of the most underrated songs from one of the most underrated groups in music history. Tears for Fears is the BEST, hands down!!!

  • I hole heartedly agree!!!

  • que d'émotions me remontent à l'esprit ! Je pense toujours à Elle... presque 20 ans après. Merçi TFF. Merçi CCR.

  • AND WE WILL CARRY WAR NO MORE

  • The Sun and The Moon,

    The Wind and The Rain

    I love how he weaves his songs together.

  • the crescendo at the end always gets the blood rushing. Just brilliant stuff and wish they would get together and do more !

  • Schitterend, muziek met een Gouden Hoofdletter M.

  • One word: BRILLIANT ! This song never die. In our hearts, in our souls, FOR ETERNITY !

  • A song for the ages. When it came out in 1990 I was at a turning point in my life. Its intense emotionality and its underlying sadness helped me decide make the most important choice of my life: who to love forever... It never fails to bring tears of joy and sadness.

  • i've just read all comments for this video and i'm so glad everyone here agrees. such a wonderful song,Roland is in top form here(as is everyone else)and has there ever been anyone so HOT!! this is something to keep and remember forever.(now i must see The Working Hour(the one from Germany!)a comment here made me think of it and it does run a close 2nd. Songs From the Big Chair dvd is amazing.The audience sound is tuned out,its all TFF.Its the one from Germany.Please see if you haven't!!!

  • wow crazy i dind't relize they existed till kanye sampled them...they sick as hell!!

  • tff are the best

  • what? which song did he sample.i m behind on my kanye.

  • its called coldest winter

  • This song only reached 83 in the charts in may 1990!!! Why was this not a number 1?!

  • So much emotion wrapped up in that song.

  • This amazing song ... beautiful and unforgetable ... I love it .

  • Roland sure can sing and with such feeling!

  • I Know! He Was SOOOO Hot In The 80's!

  • Extraordinary!

  • Best album to incorporate so many element`s of music such as jazz,rock,r&b,eclectic,etc.TFF are great. "The Seeds of Love" is a special album from a special time.(The 80`s!)

  • Uma das melhores do mundo...!!!clássico.

  • The best Lovesong I have ever been heard.

  • i used to listen to this as I slept many years ago.

  • me too

  • Count me in. :)

  • Hello TFF fans. Roland,Roland on which planet you were born. I love this voice.The best Polish fan sanding a homage to you. Seeya

  • Did "Year of the Knife" have a video?

  • Amazing song! This used to be my all time favourite TFF-song and it is still fighting the Working Hour for that title.

  • I have to say "The Working Hour" is quite better :)

  • i love

  • What a voice, jesus.

  • The B-side of this album is so great. I love it

  • How sexy does Roland look !!!!! Thanks for the video, Great song

  • at 00.15, sound like 'Nicam performance'?? or '......four minutes...'?

  • He says "Let's take another five minutes"

  • great intro, very evocative, i must have listened to this song every day for the past 20 years. I've used in 2 of my plays 'The Wires Are Down' and 'Sex Is The Sun'. But what is being said under the intro at about 00.10???

  • what an amazing song! my god.

  • un tema de los mejores de TFF.

    ME EMOCIONA UN MONTON.....

    DESDE ESTEPONA SEGUIS TENIENDO UN FANS CUARENTON

  • My favourite TFF song. What a voice!

  • This has always been one of my favorite T4F songs. It has an amazing message. I have been looking for an mp3 of the song, but it's nowhere to be found. Thank you so much for posting this video!

  • If you want, I can send you the mp3 for email to you.

  • Can someone upload the song "standing at the corner of the third world". It's one of my favorits.

  • The song " Standing on the corner of 3rd world doesn't have a video..Do you wann only the song?

  • Just the song will be fine. Thanks man

  • if you wanna pass a email, I can send you the song.. Send me a personal message with a email..

  • amazing song. =D

  • First time ever hearing this and I am BLOWN AWAY! Wow, thanks for this, it made my night. I really look to these guys as total master of their craft!

  • Amazing song. Can't really describe what I feel while listening to it: sweet memories and "ancient" emotions gave me a bit of nostalgia in thinking about the old days ....

  • I never grow tired of this song. It overwhelms me each time I hear it. TFF is so powerful. I listened to them, falling asleep, when I was pregnant with my 18 yr old. She found TFF on her own at 14 or 15 and was immediately hypnotized by their music. It is strange and wonderful to know she loves them so much. She has drawn a huge mural on her wall. Check out her myspace, everyonecanchange. Look at her blog on her mural and at pics of her TFF artwork. She has been truly inspired by TFF.

  • wow that is so amaizing . Me finding out about tears for fears is almost the same story. My father would play songs from the big chair at night when i was 6 or 7 and would yell out my lungs to Shout and be amaized by th saxophone solos in their songs. i ended up forgetting about ttf but recently heard the album again and now i love this band they are truely the best better than any new bands of today .

  • I hope you have checked out their more recent release Everybody Loves A Happy Ending. It is incredible. Curt and Roland reunited a few years back and put out a new album. I love it.

  • Everybody Loves A Happy Ending sounds very much like Seeds of Love (a good thing btw). Its as if they never broke up... like they made the album 2 or 3 years after Seeds.

  • yes i have heard those songs and they are great also !

  • Tears for fears in a band that Inspired intellect and a lot of creativity, this is one of my favorite songs as well as all the material they have done throughout his career.

  • esta cancion es increible me deshago con tears for fears !!!!!

  • synched over the video

  • God I love his voice! Gives me chills!

  • It's a great song, I still love it after all those years

  • Seeds of love was a very underrated album, especially after the outstanding "Big chair".

  • A great song to the end of a great era. This really was Tears for Fears swan song. But luckily they have been back together since 2000, released a great album in 2004 and are hopefully going to continue their legacy.

  • the brains are sexier than the body, and Roland always had both

  • how about curt?

  • Curt's looks are a bit too tame for me. But on "Seven of Sundays" he has his thing going on; quite sexy and very cerebral. To keep Roland as his partner all those years, he certainly had to have it upstairs as well.

  • second that. Roland has a more earthy, smoldering passionate side and his lyrics reflect this. Since 1984, I've been the most drawn to him of the two, he has a dark sexiness that is hypnotizing...

  • Perfectly said....I could never describe it as well as you just did. Smoldering passion and dark, hypnotizing sexiness is Roland to a T!

  • Yes yes yes! I liked them in the 80's, but didn't really revisit them again until a few months ago. Now I'm OBSESSED with their music and Roland. I've just run across this song and will have to download it, thanks!!

  • Incredible song......makes me cry. On top of that, Roland is so damn SEXY!

  • havent heard this song for years, brings back good memories. this era is the best era for music

  • Después de la lluvia

    Antes del fuego

    Me desharé

    Entre tus brazos

    Cuando el día alcance la noche

    Nos sentaremos ante la luz de las velas

    Reiremos

    Cantaremos

    Cuando los santos entren marchando

    Es... preciosa esta cancion...

  • wow.....maganda boses ni roland

  • what a song...

  • i

    I listen this song again and again,this is one of great song to TTF

  • I bought Seeds of Love album 11 years ago. I was 13 at the time and still love it. Nowadays music suckss ass.

  • Una de las caracteristicas de esta banda es los arreglos, como armonizan sonidos distintos y los ensamblan de forma perfecta en la estructura principal de la canción...respetando las diferencias..tenemos diversos movimientos en una sola canción hasta con un final poco usual..cada instrumento es protagonista.. no se superponen... realmente son unos genios musicales..es una obra maestra de tears for fears

  • just magique

  • i love this song so much but everytime i hear it and really listen to the lyrics it always makes me cry

  • Still Love this tune after all these years. I love Oleta Adams too! Love the trumpet solo, the arraingments...incredible song

  • wow so smoooooth.... yet so cold what a great band, its music crosses over generations

  • Roland, you are so, so cool ............

  • After the wash

    Before the fire

    I will decay

    Melt in your arms

    As the day hits the night

    We will sit by candlelight

    We will laugh

    We will sing

    When the saints go marching in

  • A for a heart B for a brain Insects and grass Are all that remain When the light from above Burns a hole straight through our love We will laugh We will sing When the saints go marching in And we will carry war no more All our love and all our of pain Will be but a tune
  • The sun and the moon The wind and the rain Hand in hand we'll do and die Listening to the band that made us cry We'll have nothing to lose We'll have nothing to gain Just to stay this real life situation For one last refrain As the day hits the night We will sit by candlelight We will laugh We will sing When the saints go marching in And we will carry war no more
  • il n'y a pas de mot

    trop genial

    que du bonheur

  • used to listen to this album on loop

    for a year or so....

    haven't heard this in years.

    was there a bad song on this record?

  • same as elemental... another superb album...

  • love this song.. i'm so glad they got back together as friends and bandmates again

  • I know what you mean RonG40 - this song touches my heart and soul and transports me back to another era...

  • Wot a beautiful song. This was in fact released as a single after 'Advice For The Young At Heart' in May 1990 but for some strange reason did not make the top 75! Shame.....

  • Man... I still get chills when I hear this song..it used to scare my daughter when she was little..she loved hearing it though..you know how that is....she is 18 now and still loves this song....and yes, it still scares her...

  • This song...oh man, stirs up ghosts, and conjures all sorts of memories, as does the whole album...but this one...! Never new it existed as a vid...Thank you!

    Makes me weep instantly.

  • I believe this song was a foreshadow. The last song on the last truly great TFF album before Curt & Roland parted ways... Had it on vinyl:)

  • a velvet explosion, a perfect plea for passivity thru passion and, perhaps, the essence of roland's brilliance; may his star shine eternal

  • so powerfull and so delicate....

  • This is a beautiful song and a fitting end to a great album- 'The Seeds of Love'.

  • Such a beautiful song but also painful - reminds me of a friend that I used to know who passed away shortly after this song came out - always makes me cry.

  • I feel sorry for you, anestofleas. This is why the music of Tears for Fears and The Cure touch in a way perhaps very few bands do. Their hearts beat in the same way as ours. That is the reason they are so special.

  • i can die too...thks for post this

  • Dude.This is my first time seeing this.I can die now.

  • roland is tears 4 fears, sorry curt, roland carried you.

  • And we will carry war no more

    Sowing the seeds man - the albumn told the story of a lifetime

    how genius was that

    Cheers for posting

  • yeah, I love this song. As a dude that loves music, i must say, they rule. IM SEEING THEM SUNDAY!!!

  • One of the BEST songs TFF has ever done. I love all their songs but this one is AMAZING. Pure genius.

  • This song is very touching... The whole album is excellent. Tears For Fears are one of the best bands I've ever heard.

  • A beautiful song. Was a single in April 1990 but it did'nt make the top 75! Shame...
