Songs From The Big Chair - 35 Years Old.

Just watched a BBC4 documentary about the seminal album by Tears For Fears.

Absolutely fascinating to see the classic songs deconstructed by the people who wrote and produced them........the work that goes into a lot of these timeless classics is mind boggling.

I always loved this groups songs,particularly Pale Shelter and Mad World and back in 82-85 I guess most people thought it was just frivolous pop being churned out by soon to be nobodies.

When you actually see in intricacy and delicacy that went into the creation you can then understand why songs like Everybody Wants To Rule The World become songs that will last as long as humanity.

Master craftsmen at work and well worth a watch if you can catch it next time around.
