Hadn't yet heard of Tears For Fears but, very soon would. In the months following, I'd become deeply affected by this music (and The Hurting). And I'm very grateful to this day. Thank you Roland & Curt.

I consider the memories. There were momentary lapses into sanity at the time.

Ah, Songs from the Big Chair. The album that established me as a TFF fan- I have an orig. poster from '85 promoting this album; it's hanging next to my desk right now. And I'll keep it forever. <3 Thanks for the great music, guys.

Didn't get this CD until about 2000. Wish I'd known what I was missing earlier. The more I listened, the more I fell in love. Now I love everything TFF/Curt/Roland are involved in. Thanks, guys!

It's not that you're not good enough, it's just that we can make you better, given that you paid the price, we can keep you young and tender, following in the footsteps of a funeral pryor you were paid not to listen now your house is on fire.

Mothers Talk US remix

I just love that song. :)

Posted by Allison on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 20:24.

I see it now... Papa rolling his eyes too, maybe saying "jeez... these KOOKs are really nuts". Ok, we are nuts, about TFF.

Allison and Timelessgirl--- A bender! Maybe that is what heaven will be like? In which case I'm going to have to stop believing in matter and energy continuing on in some other form... And really focus on clouds, a stage, gold guitars.

Posted by Allison on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 19:24.

hey timelessgirl! Yes, your post was awesome, and yeah, Curt is prob like, oh lord. But yes, I could go for a 3 day TFF bender.

Posted by jazzerholic on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 19:21.

Mothers Talk (U.S. Version) kicks!! Not that the original version doesn't.

Posted by timelessgirl on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 18:32.

I like your idea Allison but I have a problem because I really love ALL the albums...I just do not have 1 favorite album. Poor Curt and Roland would have to play every song from every album...aTFF marathon concert. Wouldn't that be something. We would,of course, as true and loyal TFF fans "allow " them bathroom breaks and set up a hydration station for them, heck I would personally fan them with one of those big palm branches if they so wished. But it would be "all TFF, all the time." ...I can just see Curt rolling his eyes right now...
Ok, bad idea.

Posted by timelessgirl on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 18:21.

ummm, I'm glad that you didn't actually do the math (outloud) longhand..it was a rhetorical math problem! The bad news - yep, I'm kinda old; the good news - I'm closer (in age) to Curt and Roland then you!!! ...not sure that came out sounding so well for any of the above parties involved...

Posted by SuzanneOlden on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 17:07.

2009 - 1966 that makes you... a year older than me! ;)

Hope for the hopeless, faith without anger. We can change the world...

how 'bout that album in its entirety idea, you guys like that? I think I would! I could just see myself jamming to Mothers Talk

Posted by timelessgirl on Monday, September 21, 2009 - 10:50.

Well not me, I was just a baby then...funny thing is I can remember the album when it first came out...I must have been quite a musically advanced "baby" !

Hmmm ...2009 - 1966 makes me......
