Tears for Fears. I can’t believe that I didn’t post them sooner considering they were pretty dominant during the 80s pop scene. Not so much with this album the Hurting which I personally like but with their second album Songs From the Big Chair. Anyways I don’t want to derail this thread. The Hurting in my opinion is a great album. The songs Mad World, Chanew, Pale Shelter and the Hurting are great songs.
