Hi there, pm. Not a huge fan but I knew and liked a few of the early songs at the time, most notably "Mad World" and "Shout". I watched a great documentary about them a while back.

Hope you enjoy the concert next month!

Thanks, JK. It'll be our first "post-pandemic" concert, so I'm really looking forward to it!!

And, yeah, I knew all the U.S. hits, but once I got deeper into them and found "Mad World" and the deeper meanings behind a lot of their songs.

As much as I adore every aspect of Brian Wilson's career, his introspective work (regardless of the period it comes from), always hits me the hardest, so it was an easy leap for me into Tears For Fears.
