Default Tears for Fears' Roland Orzabal on selling out

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothers_Talk

"This was a taster for Songs from the Big Chair, the second album, on which we unashamedly tried to become more commercial.I was against it, but I was swayed by some of the people that I was working with. They wanted to come out all guns blazing, but I wasn't ready for that."

He wasn't ready, poor guy.

I've never seen this video before, I like how the drummer hits the cymbals at 59s

Their old stuff sounds like Editors and Franz Ferdinand or chameleons/ echo and the bunnymen but their new stuff is more synth pop. Simple minds / tears for fears

I didn't take songs from the big chair seriously at first outside of the singles. But I like it a lot now. The Working Hour is probably my favorite.

The new White Lies album comes out next month and I hope they can continue to fill the void that tears for fears left.
