Why was it that people liked Tears for Fears?

by lambchops lambchops is a Lead on Epinions in Music, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Mar 01 '02
Pros: Four or five decent tracks
Cons: Mid-tempo, lackluster, synthesizer-laden crap in general
One of the earliest songs I recall (aside from Van Halen’s Jump and Kool and the Gang’s Celebration) is one called Shout from Tears for Fears. I suppose that early memory is in part what led me to the purchase...

Tears For Fears--A Thin Line Between Genius And Mediocrity

by sparkospunky Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Oct 30 '02
Pros: Some truly great songs
Cons: Some songs that truly suck
Tears For Fears was never really a band--actually this project consisted of Curtis Smith and Roland Orzabal, childhood friends who shared the gift (or curse, as it were) of musical excess, at least until Orzabal jettisoned Smith in 1993 or so to...

To the rescue

by Guildenstern Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 30 '02
Pros: The best 80’s pop act with a difference
Cons: The synthesizers. Such a shame.
Right. I’ve read one too many negative reviews of Tears for Fears and I’m here to redress the balance. Much as I respect and admire the work of my esteemed colleagues Sparkospunky and Lambchops, I can’t sit idly by and watch one of my...

A 'Greatest Hits' Compilation

by Zeikerd , Apr 03 '00
Pros: 4 of the best songs from the 80's
Cons: "Advice for the Young at Heart" - groan!

Advice for the Young at Heart...

by apple_venus , Sep 10 '02
Pros: All the famous tracks!
Cons: Misses a few real, Tears for Fears classics.
...Buy this album. The good thing about Tears for Fears is that they survived the early 90s. They didn't go much beond 1992, but where most similar bands failed, Tears for Fears still wrote a few great tracks. Only one of them appear in this album...

Rolling down memory lane

by m.s.heart , Jun 29 '00
Pros: 80's nostalgia, solid hits
Cons: "Advice for the Young at Heart"
Get out your hankies and wipe those tears rolling down your face. Here's a nostalgic compilation of songs from the "big chair" and more that will stop the "hurting" and bring back memories from the 80's.
