![Tears for Fears: Songs from the Big Chair (2LP, 40th anniversary edition, red vinyl with original artwork) [MERCURY]](https://cdn.shoplightspeed.com/shops/621399/files/73295841/1652x1652x2/new-vinyl-tears-for-fears-songs-from-the-big-chair.jpg)
A 40th anniversary 2LP set of Tears for Fears' 1985 album Songs from the Big Chair on red vinyl, with "Shout" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World."
Songs from the Big Chair went to No. 1 in the US with two Hot 100 chart-toppers, "Shout" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World"; this 40th anniversary set is on red vinyl with the original artwork.
The title comes from Sybil, a TV film about a woman who could only feel safe in her therapist's big chair, which tells you Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith still had their heads in the deep stuff. What changed after The Hurting was the sound: glossy, guitar-driven and built for the radio.
"Shout" is a primal, pounding call to arms, "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" glides along on one of the great shuffles in pop, and "Head over Heels" is a swooning, romantic sweep. "Mothers Talk," "The Working Hour" and a re-recorded "I Believe" show the band's jazzier, more ambitious side.
It peaked at No. 2 in the UK and sold by the millions.
