Subject: Tears For Fears!
Written By: tff37 on 07/13/04 at 4:25 pm
Hey everyone. I've been excited all day today since I just found out that Tears For Fears are back! I went on their website (tearforfears.net) and they have a new record coming out too. I'm just blown away by the songs I heard there. It must be like 15 years since Roland and Curt made a record together, so this to me is amazing.
Are there still some TFF fans out there? I for one have never lost interest....I think they have always been a great band.

Yes, I was a big fan of theirs in the 80s, "The Hurting" and "Songs From The Big Chair" formed part of the soundtrack of my late teens and early 20s.
Roland and Curt were recently interviewed in Q magazine about their renewed collaboration. They're both now resident in California and maintained that they were in the process of coming together again anyway, the recent Gary Jules hit cover version of "Mad World" was a pure coincidence. In the interview, they came across as somewhat tetchy with each other, it seemed like the old rivalries and personality conflicts that drove them apart before were still bubbling away under the surface!

Make sure you check their official site to hear new tunes and stuff.
Not sure if you'd be interested....but I think I mentioned once before that I am a member of the TFF Team, which has been really cool so far. Here's a link so you can check it out if you want.

How do you all think it's going to do sales wise? I'm not really sure if a ton of people are going to buy it or not, but you never can tell with these things...

"Everybody Wants To Rule The World" is a masterpiece.
