Tears for Fears- Songs from the Big Chair 40th- Curt Smith 2-17

There was something gleaming, sparkling, refreshing about Tears for Fears Songs from the Big Chair in February 1985. The duo’s debut The Hurting was one of the strongest debuts in 1983, with “Change”, “Mad World”, “Pale Shelter”, and the title song leaving an impressive impression. The followup Songs from the Big Chair was even stronger, with “Shout”, “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”, and “Head Over Heels” all driving the album to #1 sales in America.
