Tears for Fears

Tears for FearsFollowing a sold-out summer arena tour highlighted by their triumphant UK return in front of 65,000-plus fans as special guests of The Killers during British Summer Time Festival at Hyde Park, Tears For Fears – Roland Orzabal [vocals, guitar, keyboards] and Curt Smith [vocals, bass, keyboards] – close out 2017 with the release of their first career-spanning greatest hits album, ‘Rule The World’.  The collection arrives everywhere November 10, 2017 on UMe. It’s available for pre-order at the band’s official site now. Check out the full tracklisting below.

Not only does ‘Rule The World’ feature classics such as Pale Shelter, Mad WorldEverybody Wants To Rule The World, Shout, Head Over HeelsWoman In Chains, but it also includes the first original music from the duo since 2004. This year, they recorded two new tracks – I Love You But I’m Lost and Stay – for inclusion on the collection. The single I Love You But I’m Lost bristles with the enigmatic energy of classic Tears For Fears, while the subtle acoustic Stay ranks among their most emotional fare. Both fit comfortably alongside the anthems that have defined three generations.

For a glimpse of what to expect, listen to I Love You But I’m Lost here. You can also watch their classic video for Pale Shelter below.

It’s just the beginning though. The new music hints at very big plans for Tears For Fears in 2018.
