Then it'll help me realize how the time seems wrong like it flew by, 20 years ago which was 2003 seems to me like half that amount I was in 4th grade that year. Going through it doesn't seem like you'll ever get to it but you will, back then if I heard 2023 I would of thought it was very far in the future but now it's here. It's just strange how it'll creep up on you but it happens to everyone. My grandmother is 100 and she still remembers everything she was in her 30s when you were born or close to 40

    Sometimes I can't listen to this song. It gives me chills every time I hear it. The first time I heard it, I hated it, not because it's a bad song, but because it brought up some fears and emotions I didn't want to deal with. I also loved it as much as I hated it. The way it's composed is beautiful. It makes me emotional and gives me a feeling of yearning, loss, and peace. I start to feel this yearning and loss when that flute-sounding part at 0:50 comes in ......chills.

I'm obsessed with Tears for Fears melodies, so I began reading the lyrics inside the cassette (yes, a cassette) and singing my heart out all the way, as we travel to the south of Chile. Not only this band taught me to sing, it also taught me to sing and read in english, being from a spanish speaking country. Thank you so much for the upload, and thanks to mom and dad for not throwing me off the car (I mean, come on...it was a 14 hours drive).

Plus, girls are moody & unnecessarily complicated with their "feelings". EVERYTIME I hear a little girl squeal or screech with their godawful high pitched girl voice I thank God he blessed me with a boy!! If I could, I'd have 4 more boys!! My dog's a boy too!!! Sorry.

    Listen to the way this is constructed, just listen. It starts out minimally, just programmed drums synth pad and vocal. New sounds are added each verse and chorus until the breakdown. You get this lead synth/bass call/response thing going in, then when it goes back into the chorus the programmed drums are supplanted by real drums building up to the guitar solo. Awesome!

      +K4RN4GE911-t really does stand the test of time, doesn't it, and ever since I was introduced to this great song and this amazing band, this song has only gotten stronger for me to where I find this song, in this moment in time, particularly cathartic. I really want to scream along with this song until my throat is torn open, scream the primal scream Tears for Fears talks about so well in this song-the primal, instinctual scream of helplessness, of sheer humanity, to know you are still human. I'd argue this is a harsh satire/leveled criticism of 80s corporate ideology that has. . .well. . .only gotten worse where individuals are not treated as such, to where everyone is considered a tool to further the ends of the elite and nothing more, where basic humanity and feeling is stripped away at the end of the day where the corporations force apathy, to feel. . .nothing. You are no one, nothing. You don't think and you never feel. Basic human feeling is scrapped off, little by little, people become movements rustling through coin, cash, and the only release this man can find at the end of the day is to scream, at the top of his lungs, scream until his voice can no longer be heard, because that is the only way left for him to be able to feel something, anything, to know he is still human.

Nothing to make you think, be inspired, stir your emotions or touch your heart and soul. The songs that did that are those like this stirring and challenging classic.
