Who'd have believed it? With its deliberate storybook-inspired title, Everybody Loves A Happy Ending signals a welcome return for Tears For Fears - one of the biggest and best-loved bands of the post-MTV age-and one of the most unexpected reunions in pop music history.
"This is the album that should have followed Seeds Of Love in many ways," says singer-songwriter Roland Orzabal, who for the first time since the album's 1989 release-is rejoined by TFF co-founder Curt Smith. The results, standout tracks like "Closest Thing To Heaven," "Call Me Mellow" and "Who Killed Tangerine," are spectacularly contemporary and unmistakably classic Tears For Fears. It is a sound likely to thrill loyal fans and-most importantly-also create legions of new ones.
