Tears for Fears should definitely be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Anybody 2026?

Honestly one of the most underrated bands in existence. These guys are pure talent. I feel they never got the recognition they truly deserve

“An end to need and the politics of greed.” Even more relevant today as it was in 1989.

This was my brother's favorite song... We were in awe when we first heard it in '89.. He passed away suddenly in 2017... I revisit it often and pretend he's singing along with me.

My favorite non-Beatles Beatles song!  Released in 1989, if you weren't born in the 60s you might not get that but it is a beautiful homage to the Beatles ... elements of I am the Walrus, Penny Lane, A Day in the Life and All You Need Is Love ... blending their psychedelic sounds, orchestral textures, and coda styles all  into a masterful single track!  Tears for Fears certainly one of the best of the 80s groups!

This isn't a song, it's an anthem. Written for these times...

People in the 80s:
The future will be great
People in 2018:
The 80s and 90s were great

2026!!! Just as good as in the 80's....I can smell the 80's

Tears For Fears is the type of band that is fucking amazing but almost no one talks about.

Who's here in 2026❤😢

this line “time to eat all your words, swallow your pride, open your eyes” gives me goosebumps

This is not a song ...... This is a timeless masterpiece

God I love this song! Why is it that once you start listening to these fire 80's hits, you end up binging on all 80's music (no matter the genre 'cause they were all bangers) for hours on YouTube? Nothing and I mean straight up nothing will ever dominate the music, culture and fads of the 80's! So blessed to have lived and experienced the enlightening 80's. This 55 year old will always be an 80's child!

Someone in August 2026 ?

This song has never been as relevant as it is today, in 2025. Masterpiece.

"Time to eat all your words, swallow your pride, open your eyes"..... best lyrics ever. Some poepole can learn a lesson...

Tears for fears is one of the most underappreciated bands of all time.

If you lived in this era, the 1980s, you know that 1989 was one of the best years in it! So much great music had come out by then, I hated to have it all end on December 31, 1989!
Well done guys!!

It's almost "2022", who's still listening...Great songs, never get old...so meaningful!❤
