Tears For Fears

[Saturnyne]

Yes, that's right. Tears For Fears. If you haven't heard of them, go to TearsForFears.net and learn all about their history, and their upcoming new album, Everybody Loves A Happy Ending.

Go!!!!!!

 

[Indoril Nerevar]

Is that going to be their last album then?

 

[LeHah]

I like Tears For Fears but I hate this thread.

 

[Starkey]

I think just about everyone has at least heard of them.

 

[Colonel Sanders]

I met Nick D'virgilio at a big drumming convention once.

Strange. I agree with you. And yet I was thinking about starting a thread about the new Sonic Youth album. Whew!

 

[Preacher]

My vote would be a thread for the band "Mercyme".

Never heard of them. Just a dinosaur I guess.

Votes don't mean crap on this island.

 

[Colonel Sanders]

They played mercy me at my uncles funeral after he died on Christmas Eve. They're a good band, but it's fine by me if I never hear them again.

ripper, how much of a dinosaur are you? (I can't be bothered to dig up the ASL thread again... Tears for Fears was the 80's synth-pop band that had that one hit wonder, "EV-REE-BAH-DEE WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD!"

Well when I think of Tears for Fears I always think of that movie where at the end the house is full of popcorn. Like, there was popcorn everywhere in the house and all over the lawn and I wanted popcorn to be everywhere like that at my house too.

I've seen that movie. Is it the same one where they put a speaker in some guy's head and yell "I AM GOD!" from the other room?

Yep, a dental implant actually. The movie is titled, "Real Genius," - a campy but admitedly fun film. I think it sort of launched Val Kilmer's career. I'd suggest seeing it at least once if anyone out there hasn't already.....

Come on now, they were a two hit wonder. Let's not forget Shout.

 

[Colonel Sanders]

Good call Nappy. I'd rather have a good two-hit wonder than a million hit Flop like today's pop......(insert any word except "music")

Yeah, that's right before they make all the popcorn blow up the house.

They actually built a micro radio into his braces somehow IIRC.

Other Stuff they did:
-Froze the dorm room floor for ice-skating a skiing with a compound that went directly from it's frozen solid state to a gaseous-state
-Fired a laser beam through several trees walls and statues across campus
-Delivered an exploding apple to the teacher on the day of final exams.
-One guy entered the Frito Lay entry competition several thousand times and won something like 52% of the prizes.
-Dis-assembled and re-assembled someones car inside their Dorm Room
-Used quarter sized slices of liquid nitrogen to pay the vending machines

It really is quite a funny movie.
