Tears For Fears

Postby dedanna1029 » 11 Apr 2010, 05:39

I'm just now, after all these years, realizing what a great late-night song this is, one to kick back and chill with a glass of wine or something. :)

A band that never reached their full potential, but damn, what they did was SO GOOD!

Off to sleep.

Yes I remember them. This is better than "Shout". I got tired of that one back in the 80's :)

Oh yeah, that one was a burn-out for sure. I had to play it too much when I was in radio. :\ I try to stray away from "hits" for that reason. One exception is Dire Straits. No one I could find, ever got burned out on Walk of Life even, and I had to play the crap out of it, too.

This one here (Badman's Song) totally blew my mind. I had to work on it a lot to get the fuzziness & scratches out of it. Was hearing some hissing too. When I got completely done (I had to take it in very very small increments), I played the whole thing back and was totally completely amazed.

Another one from them that's quite nice.

Their hints of jazz were outstanding in the day... really nice stuff. :) Bare hints, but very nice.

I have got to find me some more web space...

Dang. I'm still hearing some hiss in this one... :(

Brownie points to anyone who can say, offhand, without looking it up, who the female singer is in "Badman's Song".
