They got way more radio play it would seem and they had several mtv videos. I can only recall one song from red.

SR has Hold Back the Years and it's a classic but I know nothing else about them.

I think I copped the album at a discount bin and was disappointed

12788217, Tears for Fears have 3 PERFECT pop songs

I'd put "Head Over Heels", "Mad World" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" up with ANYTHING the Beatles put out.
12788224, I Wanna Hold Your Hand shits on all 3 of those

The Beatles had pop records down to a science
