In two different music magazines within the past two years, Tears For Fears'
The Hurting was mentioned as one of the best albums of not just 1983, but the 80s themselves. I never realized before how much the idea of
primal scream therapy (and emotional distress) played into the concept of it all.

Their version of "Mad World" preceded Gary Jules' (which appeared on the Donnie Darko soundtrack) and is totally different, though equally full of yearning.
