Tears for Fears, Together Again

[EddMarkStarr]

Tears For Fears has reunited and released their first new album in 17 years, "The Tipping Point", on February 25th, 2022.


When I was a young, strong high school guy, my favorite teacher asked me, "when you look around and see everyone's flaws, please remember you have choices . . . one of them is mercy".

We are all traveling through time together, in a one way journey. Along the way, never let go of the lifeline we call mercy.

*inner Karen activated* this is going on my playlist. i forgot they even existed how terrible.

I had to remind myself what they looked like 17 years ago.

Love Tears for Fears; they've never produced a sub-par song, as far as I'm concerned.

I considered buying a ticket for their new tour but couldn't bring myself to pay the (frankly) extortionate price. I don't blame the money-engines behind it all from trying to take advantage of people's desperate desires to enjoy the pleasures of live music and other people's company again after the dark cloud of COVID, but I wasn't one of those who managed to save up loads of dosh while the world was at a standstill, so...

best friends from childhood---they had a falling out---apparenly the long haired one's wife died a few years ago---when you realize life is short---so they kissed and made up. They have some great songs. The cute one used to occasionally go to my gym in NYC and walked around naked---which I thought was cool for a celebrity.

Is it the thread or the cabbage rolls you had for dinner last night?

Bands tend to break up over money and reunite over the lack of it.

Ah, give me the details, please.

Life can be tough, but for Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, life was cruel enough that they were driven back together again.

Sometimes, you just want to be safe, and loved.

Ah, give me the details, please.

It was big and nice--but couldn't tell if it was a shower not a grower.

I like Tears for Fears! They had some big hit songs back in the mid 1980's!
