Reviews Customer Reviews for Tears For Fears Tears Roll Down Greatest Hits 82 92      Good Overview.      Rating:      This Tears For Fears compilation has all of the hits and more. Personally, I'm not a fan of re-mixing songs, but the re-mixed ones in this case are still good, though I guess preferably, I would have wanted the originals, as the fans came to know them. Pretty good compilation, all in all.     Customer Reviews for Tears For Fears Tears Roll Down Greatest Hits 82 92 Cd      A must-have for fans of 80s music      Rating:      In my mind, there are certain bands or singers who define a decade, or who might be considered the best musical examples of the time. For me, Tears for Fears is a great example and one of the bigger and more successful acts of the 80s. Tears for Fears, of course, is no longer making new music, but you can't get away from hearing them on the radio or in the mall or at Taco Bell or wherever. This compilation is one of the best the 80s had to offer, although I was always a little surprised at their huge popularity since their music rarely had a danceable beat. But what it did have was a great sound and commercial appeal that still exists today, even if the lyrics were strangely melancholy for pop music. I was never a die-hard fan at the time but I loved most of their hits like "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," "Shout," and "Head Over Heels." I had never heard "Woman In Chains" before buying the CD but it quickly became my favorite. "Sowing the Seeds of Love" gets a little old sometimes for me, and I'm not especially fond of "I Believe," but they're still worth listening to. Personally, I was always partial to their older and more New Wave-ish sound, like "Mad World" and "Pale Shelter," and I'm probably the only person in the world who was disappointed that "The Way You Are" wasn't included (apparently the band hated that song?!?), but I can't find a single song here that I absolutely *don't* like or would regularly skip. My only complaint is that the songs don't appear to be in chronological order which is a bit confusing, but it's not that big of a deal. Overall, a must-have for fans of 80s music.
