I really like them...
They have made lots of great tracks...

You have any favourite track or memories from listening to
their tracks?

I think they suck. But Gary Jules' cover of Mad World is
excellent. Everybody Wants To Rule The World reminds me off
a shitty local AOR radio station called The Bay.

the only track I ever heard was that one that gary jules
covered
well I find it kinda funny,
I find it kinda sad
the dreams in which I'm dying
are the best I ever had
it was sweetass, the original virgin! (version, rather...)

i put on "the hurting" from time to time, its really good
but it gets old pretty quick. I love that one song in
donnie darko, when they are in the school and everything is
in slow momtions. i don't know the name but thats one of my
favorite tears for fears songs.

roland has a fantastic voice (still), curt isn't the best of
singers but a very talented bass player

hey dood!!!

i have their greatest hits too!!

good to hear, one thing that bands shouldn't do is get back
together and sound like crap.....know what i mean.....it's
just one of those things where you should go out with people
saying how good you were, not how bad you sound
NOW......ahahhaha

hey!

i just watched a show about inxs and their tour from last
year...dont know how long did take them, but they sure
sounded like in their best years-the new singer sounded
really cool, very simmilar tone of voice as michael, and the
fans seemed to enjoy the concert as well. they were a bit
cold during first 3 songs but dot right into it by the 4th
song.

i'd like to hear some new music from tears for fears, i just
hope they dont go to pop (like a-ha after they reunited)

roland and curt have never stopped making music. after they
split after touring in 1990, roland did another 2 albums
under the name tears for fears: elemental in 1993 and raoul
& the kings of spain in 1995. mor recently he also did a mor
experimental electronic tinged album tomcats screaming
outside in 1999. curt smith has done 2 albums, the 1st under
his own name and then forming a group called mayfield and
releasing another album. he also has another solo album
written but has put in on hold until next year.
