Tears For Fears

[GazerOfStars]

I love this band...anyone into these popdudez?
It has some great emotion in the music and I love the singers' voice!! Absolutely my favorit 80's popband, though I'm into Bowie and Kate Bush aswell..

I think those 80's songs have formed me into what I am right now because when I was an 7 year old boy my ears learned to know their tunes and all I could do was enjoy the melody and dream away...

80's music has that special feeling I rarely hear in today's popmusic...all hail the 80's!!!

If you ask me the only decade that had great popmusic was the 60's!!!! There are a coule of 80's songs that I like (Level 42, King, Rockwell, Dead or Alive and probably some more), but they usually get a little tiresome after 10-20 listens and I rarely listen to them nowadays. I'm 21 so I was a kid in the 80's as well, but I don't look back on that period with joy. More with disgust! Maybe it's because I started getting into 70's funk and then other types of music that the 80's seem so disgusting. When I was a kid I really liked the synths and electric drum sounds, but when I look at it now it's awful! Too synthetic and everything that was good in the 70's turned to pure crap in the 80's! As I said there are some songs I can accept, and Tears for Fears are okay. I wouldn't go buy their records, but songs like "Shout" & "Sowing the seeds of love" are okay.
Didn't we discuss them not so long ago by the way?

It's not that I'm a nostalgic or anything, I just prefer 60's music as I think it's way better than the pop that was put out in the 70's, 80's & 90's.
