I have just recently reintroduced myself to TFF. The musical genius of Roland Orzabal has only increased with the years. And his voice is outstanding. I have been listening to the lesser known works and have been impressed by the soul, blues notes. I think he might be missing the mark by not doing more in those areas. He's got strong talent there.

To me, this is the best group ever. And it all comes from the fact that there is an incredible depth to what they make and do. First, the lyrics. Those are not just words you read and then judge. You need to read them, understand them and once you do that, you'll find a world is opening up for you. A world in your inner self. Because that is what Tears For Fears are about: Tackling fears and overcoming obstacles. The way they incorporate music into this is just brilliant. Every song seems to have music fitting to the idea of the song.
And not just that: Their musical 'styles' (a term that they weren't really a fan of) ranges from the hard rockers ('Year of the knife' from 'The seeds of love' or 'New star' from 'Saturnine martial & Lunatic') to the atmospheric, deeper songs ('Listen' on 'Songs from the big chair' or 'I choose you' from 'Raoul and the kings of Spain') to the amazing instrumentals (The semi-post-rock 'Pharaos' or the muzak 'Music for tables') seem to define what Tears For Fears is all about: Diversity with a deep and complex lesson. Educate thyself.

Just recently, I watched a TV show where TFF were mentioned as one of the disposable pop groups of the 80s. I disagree with that opinion - indeed, they were producing slick music, but it was a bit more sophisticated than stuff done by their peers.
In general, 80s were not good for pop music - whatever comes to mind is overused synthesizer sound and hollow sounding drums. Somehow, TFF were able to inject more life into their songs than many others - even with some of the typical production values for those times.
On a downside, some of their songs are/were overplayed (think "Shout" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World") and there was a definite reliance on image (although not as heavy as in, say, Duran Duran or Erasure or bands of that ilk). All in all, many of their songs stood the test of time very well and one can easily find less attractive examples of pop music from the 80s out there.
