    ------ About the song Shout performed by Tears For Fears

Months after, I know... But, Ruby, if you haven't already broken up with your bf, I would like you to consider the possibility that you are reading way too far into it. This is a great song. I would play it for my girlfriend just because it's a great song. Maybe that's all this was: he was sharing a favorite of his with you.

inb4 giving internet advice is stupid
I couldn't help myself this time.

The Shift of the Ages | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Sowing The Seeds of Love performed by Tears For Fears

This song, given time, will be seen to mark the beginning of the great shift in human consciousness, which kicked off with the Harmonic Convergence in August of 1987.
It captures the start perfectly, a shift that 2012 marks the halfway point.
What an amazing piece.

One of the Best of the 80's | Reviewer: Smitty
    ------ About the song Head Over Heels performed by Tears For Fears

Someone said it sucked they came out in the 80's? But they ARE a New Wave band!! This is New Wave! And its one of the best genre's ever created during modern times! I absolutely ADORE THIS BAND! I love everything they do! This song being one my favorites. This is like pure bliss. I was a kid too when the 80's was in full swing and am in my early 30's as well. I am eternally grateful for being around during those times to fully appreciate it. And like another reviewer I too grew up in "the hood" but it didn't stop me nor the rest of my family from appreciating all forms of music! I spent a lot of time listening to New Wave. This band is seriously underrated. They are legendary in every way with some of the best New Wave to ever grace this Earth. I can't stop hitting the replay button. The song is so beautiful its like an orgasm to the eardrum!

    ------ About the song Woman in Chains performed by Tears For Fears

I was lucky enough to see Tears for Fears in Brighton, England and I was totally blown away. This concert told me that Roland was the main man, not Kurt. Another revelation was this song. It blew away again. I did not get past the beauty of this song until I saw the video: A beautiful girl suffering a seedy life. Since then I married a great girl. In the beginning she thought it was a mans world. I told her that is not so much the case nowadays. 20 years later she is one of IBM's top managers. Thank you Tears for Tears. My favourite band ever (The Eagles are 2nd). Humbly submitted by Dead Lee ( Brucey's Brother!)

    ------ About the song Shout performed by Tears For Fears

if your boyfriend plays this song for you, what should I be thinking? I doubt he wants me to "shout shout LET IT ALL OUT", he doesn't really seem to be interested in hearing my feelings.
The "I really want to break your heart" part did just that...broke my heart.
I wish I knew what "the things I could live without" are. Anybody got a clue?

The '80s... | Reviewer: KV
    ------ About the song Shout performed by Tears For Fears

...were not the best decade in my life, but the music was wonderful. I appreciated the spirit of it as well as the remarkable international influence. The music of the next decade tended toward depressing and hopeless. I was a DJ in the '90s, and the songs brought my mood down every shift. The music of the '80s will always retain a warm spot in my heart.

Transcendence | Reviewer: not moses
    ------ About the song Badman's Song performed by Tears For Fears

I agree about the situation that triggered Roland, but these lyrics are about a lot more than that drama. Roland is culturally transcendent. He's out of the box. He can see the games and choose to play or fold his cards. Like Pete Townshend, David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Justin Hayward, Jeff Lynne, John Lennon, Mick Jagger, Roger Hodgson and others, he's read the existentialists and moved on from the common cultural beliefs, values, codes, ideas, rules, dogma, what have you.

I was there | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Shout performed by Tears For Fears

In the 80's I watched an interview on MTV of Tears for Fears explaining the lyrics to this song. There was a therapy back then called shout. A person would sit in a circle with other members of their group and stand up and shout out loud the things in their lives that troubled them. The idea was to shout out all the pain.

    ------ About the song Shout performed by Tears For Fears

Shout is a song that transcends all. It is one of those songs that can be enjoyed by all ages, gender, and ethnicities. I was one of the lucky ones that got to hear this when it first hit the radio. I was a 6-year-old that always gave my mom hell so sometimes she locks me up in a small storage room in our garage. That's where I discovered my very first radio, which resembled a tape recorder. I pluged it in and after turning the knob a few times, I discovered shout. That was one song I constantly searched for on that radio everytime. I was such a lucky kid. I'm sure everyone has their own cherished memories with this song, and if you don't, it's not too late to get some now. SHOUT SHOUT Let it all out! Come on, I'm talking to you. Come on.
