Magnífica

[EconAtheist]

Best TFF song ever.

[goodbyebadtimes]

Wow, how have I only just found this brilliant track?! The synths that kick in around 0:25 are the awesome-ness!

[alineduartetff]

curti milhões de vezes, essa música é lindaaaaaaaaa <3

[0NeoGeo]

this song is really really good, don't suck blood people.

[whoquiensabe]

i would give this 100 billion clics if i could, something else isnt it

[whoquiensabe]

UNDER-RATED !!!! HUGE , HUGE.

[brubrunete18]

I love them..so much. I can't explain what they do to me when I hear their songs, when I hear Roland's voice and the nostalgic keyboards. I just listen and pray for their long life, for their health and their coming to Brazil. Thank you, Tears for Fears, for the most incredible music and sensation I have ever had in my 21 year old life!

[dem6854]

I have a question that I've seen others ask: How can I listen to Tears for Fears' music over and over again, and never get tired of it? I just keep coming back to their music. That has never been true of any other musician(s) for me.

[0NeoGeo]

@dem6854 i have the same problem since 82

[natalia700821]

eles são maravilhosos e roland sempre da um toque especial.adoroooooooooo!!!!!!!­!!

[natalia700821]

eles são maravilhosos

[fatstax79]

The whole Saturnine album was an amazing treat, a real magical feast for the ears! (ok, that sounded lame) If you liked this song definitely try and pick up the album, well worth whatever you might have to pay on ebay! (probably not very much actually!)

[dawnofpossesion]

one of my all time TFF songs..

[gnoom50]

amazing duo

I agree with bascul

gr.gn

[ncm0629]

I love this! where did you get all these great pictures?!! and I agree with bascul, Orlando has to be one of the best songwriters! I miss their sound, Orlando has a beautiful and powerful voice! I will always love them! :)

[heberjm]

Never heard this song before. THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!

[SecondLifeEnglish]

Break... (thx for posting :)

[rrprieto]

Amazing song. I can't believe this was just a B side song. One of my favorite songs by them. I could listen to this song on repeat for hours.

[serhio121]

@rrprieto Ich auch....so unglaublich gute Lied

[gypsy80907]

The vocal is superb ~

[hucster20]

"If I care for nothin, the sun don't shine and the grass don't grow". we could all come up with a meaning for that, and the one i have makes me smile. what other band brings such emotion with them to every song! and to them music wasn't just a business.

[xhrhxbestmates]

Everybody wants to rule the world + Bloodletting go = Best tears for fears songs !!

[xxRoberts]

HAHA muy buen tema

[papermoon3]

Does anyone have the correct lyrics to this song? if so, what does he say after "And if by chance we both forget the passage of space and time between, pick up the pieces cold and wet. . ." It sounds like he says "dry them before the light to clean" but i'm trying to figure out for sure.

[michaelgadsby]

Hiya :)

I looked at a few lyric sites and you're almost right LOL

"...pick up the pieces cold and wet,

and DRIVE them before the light- to clean."

I think as in take the cold wet pieces and drive them in front of the light to purify them I guess.

Love Tears for Fears - this one of my faves now x

[papermoon3]

Thank you! That's what I saw as well, but I guess I just didn't understand the whole "drive" part. Thanks again! : )

[michaelgadsby]

Sure thing :) No problem my dear :P

You like Tears for Fears for long?

[papermoon3]

I've liked them ever since I was a little girl, but recently I've just been obsessed with their music :)

[sunshinegirl1967]

I think this song was on the B side of Break It Down Again.

[michaelgadsby]

Aggressive and beautiful

[takehimtocourt]

Simply a greatest song.

Juan Alejo

[SuperAlex2504]

This song should have been on the album. it's better than half the album. Very underrated album too.The song would have been even better had Roland gave it more time and changed the sound of the instrumental bridge in the middle of the song. Sounds a little cheezy. otherwise brilliant song.

[youtimeful]

Wow, what a great song. Never heard before. Thanks for the post and photos. Well done!!

I confess to being a Roland fan becuase his voice just touches something in me.  Maybe it is my stage in life. I may be now where he was over 10 years ago (we are about the same age.)

[kittiebaby4]

may be my favorite! wonderful song and the photos are great. always gets me in the TFF mood.

[CatQueen1980]

I've never heard this song of theirs so thanks for posting this :) These two are handsome men with masculine yet soft sounding vocals. A rarity of music generation now.

[natesot]

I agree with what you say about there voices, but i have to ad that what i liked and still do is that Roland wrights really smart lyrics. There very interesting to listen to his lyrics are so smart.

[CatQueen1980]

The lyrics they write are very smart and intelligent. This is true of they're other song Woman In Chains. The lyrics are heartfelt to most women's feelings and plight!

No feminism meant in the last sentece, just letting you know!!

[slcpunk33606]

Thank you for this great song.

[BASS71CAGLIARI]

Thank you Lara, you're a fantstic TFF fan!!!

I never understood why this song was just a B-side and Roland decided to don't put on Elemental.....much better than Brian Wilson said or Gas giants for example!!

[natesot]

Ohh i love Gas giants, but I agree with you this song should of been on Elimental I love this song, man , I wish they would do another album.

[vior4ever]

This song can be a soundtrack for a James Bond film:-) <3

[melissastrawbridge]

...you're right.. it's got that sort of dramatic... ethereality to it..

Another shining example of Roland's genius. :D :D

[The80slove]

tears for fears rule

[magicpie77]

just beautiful. thanks for sharing your love for TFF. Curt's hair at 1:40 is epic. it just fits him so well for that moment in time. forever a fan.

[Butterflyneverlands]

Lara, great job as always. Thank You!!!

[JamaicaUK]

The pictures are priceless baby priceless!!!

[Rigson]

How did this song not make it onto Elemental?

[Karalovesmusic]

i love the picture at 3:58 .....where did you get it from? i think that is my favorite picture! :)

[juuu787]

This is soo great! =) Thanks for posting!

[wagwerewolf30]

Que lastima que no tenga un video real, pero es buenisiiima esta cancion.

[juuu787]

Sí, pero el video es muy hermoso, no?

L.O.L ;)

[Zeldaartist]

love curt. love it.

[mortimerbraxis]

a hell of a song.

the young pics are priceless.

thanks.

[TearsForFearsFan]

This song is not form a film it was an extra track from the "Elemental" recordings and Roland admits he is regretful for leaving the song off the record and I agree with him. It is a fantastic song. Keep in mind that Curt is nowhere on this song. This was recorded when Tears For Fears was Roland Orzabal only.

[juuu787]

This music has a beautiful meaning...

'If I care for nothing, then the sun does not shine and the grass does not grow..." - pretty beautiful.

[roshelle95]

is curt the one with the shorter hair?

[gamka63]

yes, he's the less gorgeous one, with the plastic face!

[wolfemmpress]

That's not nice. Curt is gorgeous is his own way.

[gamka63]

Curt is nice, but now he looks much better than he used to.....

And I absolutely adore Roland and dislike him also because he is toooooo perfect.....grah!

[kittiebaby4]

Curt seems to be a really nice guy.Has a MySpace page and all and communicates with fans.Also if you see the photos,I'm pretty sure he works out! Alas,I love Roland more. No communication from him although hes as beautiful now as he ever was! I wonder does he know the fans he has? (Of course he does)

[TearsForFearsFan]

Curt has always made himself available publicly. Roland always has been very private and never comfortable with his fame.

[kittiebaby4]

Thats too bad.Roland should try a Facebook or MySpace like Curt.He could always get out of it.(I guess?) This may be my favorite Roland song,but I say that about alot of them!LOL

[CelesteK]

He also has his own website and blog that he uses to talk to fans. I adore Curt because he genuinely cares about his fans.

[CelesteK]

About the only thing that Curt keeps out of the spotlight is his daughters. He has photos of his daughters up on his website but I don't think anyone has seen their faces.

[kittiebaby4]

I've caught a glimpse on someones Facebook and of course they are beautiful like their dad!Are you on Facebook? Merry Christmas!!!

[juuu787]

yes. The one at 0:30.

[clausimausi1962]

is this a song from a film??

[imageryfactory]

The most underrated duo of the history of music. Long life to theyr songs.

[imageryfactory]

their

[vaadaenmacchi]

@imageryfactory people who 'underrate' them know nothing about good music!

[EconAtheist]

@imageryfactory If by "duo" you mean "all the stuff Roland Orzabal did", yes. Orzabal and Oleta Adams, OTOH, are the most underrated duo in the history of music. :P

/not to mention that adams is about the hottest almost-59-yr-old on the planet

[hotband83]

CURT IS HOTT!

[flowerspoint]

einer meiner lieblings sounds und songs

irrenhaus Atmosphäre und große Stimme

[natesot]

what a great song i forgot all bout this, sometimes there b sides were better then the single.

[ajittffcure]

... and that's the mark of a great band!

[manic89]

fantastic song and video...thanks¡¡

[ajittffcure]

This was one of the first songs Tears for Fears made during the Elemental period. I think it is first track Roland wrote with Alan Griffiths.

[danielkerryann]

The liner notes to Saturnine Marshal & Lunatic say;

"One of the first songs written with Alan Griffiths. It was kept on the back burner for a long time and was eventually released as one of the b-sides to Break It Down Again."

Great, great song. My favourite T4F song by a country mile...

[flexorogue]

One of the best bands! Thank you Tears for Fears for existing, I will always love you!

[ajittffcure]

What a comment!

[danizamud]

good video

[swetbabo]

Great job on the video for this wonderful song. Roland sounds superb! What a beautiful voice and such a great range and emotion!

[LadyJoy92]

I am so addicted to this song..and I have always loved Tears for Fears..especially Roland..and yes, he is hot!

I was fortunate to watch him at a concert in *98..Unbelievable. Thanks so much for posting...I think I listen to this at least twice daily...can't get enough of good music. *grin

[kittiebaby4]

Heard this on Saturnine,Marshall and Lunatic and came looking for a video. I didn't think my heart would hold out up to 43 seconds!!! Wonderful photos. Is Roland really as good looking as I think he is? (I know these photos are old.) Love him in 2008 too!!!!

[universetechnique]

So bad the world dont know their songs only the best knows theres more out there yah dont know other bands

[nancywarren]

This should have shown up on an album, it's an awesome song.

[fatstax79]

It's on the Saturnine Martial Lunatic album which came out in 96. I agree, it's awesome.

[luluaprilbuster]

spanish I can read a little you know.

[Kajali3]

What a song! My children, 8, 6 and 4, just love it.

[Antares12]

buenisima!!!!!!!!!!

[darkwarex]

Apesar do álbum SML ser uma coletânea de b-sides e raridades de várias épocas ele funciona muito bem como um todo e tem IMHO uma sequência fantástica:

(1) Lord of Karma

(2) Bloodletting Go

(3) Always in the Past

Obrigado larafreitastff!

[bascul]

In my opinion Roland Orzabal is among the best songwriters of his generation.Fabulous melody, incredile lyrics. To think that this song was a b-side!

[bobaflashgordon]

this song has such a haunting sound to it. Such a powerful song. Feelings I don't have the words for.

[roadfighterbr]

Parabéns pelo video que vc fez... e Viva o TFF! (prefiro este logo deles também)

[jessicawafa]

ana si martus kay si curt kuno ang gwapo!!!

[vaccavo]

Thanks, Lara. One day, I put it on the CD player to "Repeat" and it played at least 15 times! Pobres dos vizinhos!

[silvanaaaaaaaa]

Se ven de lo mejor!!!!  T.F.F!!!

[art4life4me]

Fabulous song. I read somewhere this was the first song Roland completed with Alan Griffiths. A great partnership--very fertile period for Roland. I would have liked it better if this was on "Elemental" instead of "Fish Out of Water" ---I could have lived without that. Also,I love these old pictures with Curt.

[ajittffcure]

Hmm... yes, I also would have preferred this song to "Fish Out of Water"!

[KamilaCiecholinska]

I love Tears For Fears:) Nice and great video :P

[Nilribs]

Great.

[natesot]

what a great song. man i almost forgot about this one they have so many great songs.

[reggie46404]

"Good times bad times.The pain will come and the pain will go.If I care fr nothing the sun won't shine.""and the grass don't grow Bloodletting go.

[jessicawafa]

ang ganda!

[jessicawafa]

i agree w/ vendalounge...."i don't understand the language she used"....JUST ENGLISH

[vandalounge]

This song is "genial"!(esta cancion es favolosa)!

[moontjuhh999]

gewoon geweldig die stem ik smelt

Roland I love you

[vandalounge]

esta cancion es favolosa!

Great great song!

Roland is a genius!

[cecilitaf]

5 stars my friend!!!!

[nerdelicious5]

Cool song -

Great pics too!

[mmorissette]

Muito legal! Será que tem como vc me mandar essas fotos? Eu agradeceria muito.

[art4life4me]

Nice! That image at 2:30--"where does the end of me become the start of you?" Awesome.

[JaiBlueCave2]

Yeah, I bought that single, there also came the Break it dOWN Again Karaoke, didnt it.

I regret giving it away as a gift because I realised that that person wouldnt care much of TFF...

[reggie46404]

Yeah I bought that one too.I loved these guys music since I first heard everybody wants to rule the world when I was like *.These guys rule.Why all the pics of Curt Smith.He wasn't with them when they made this song unless they made it before he left the group before he rejoined them.

[JaiBlueCave2]

Only this track is Roland's solo from Elemental era.

TFF rocks!

[reggie46404]

Actually it was a bonus track for the single Break it Down again.I remember buying the single and this was on there and a song called Scrogeiner's Cat.I always thought those two songs kicked ass.Only true TFF fans will appreciate them though.

[cecilitaf]

excellent job!!! this is the only vid for this song i found on youtube, is there a real vid for this song?

[ajittffcure]

Good song and good photos. This song- Bloodletting Go was supposed to be on the Elemental album but was dropped out in the end.

[laser1981]
