I remember hearing this on the radio almost every day back in 1985 as I was getting ready to graduate junior high school. You could hear it in the malls, in taxi cabs, on the radio (even Black radio was playing Tears For Fears "Shout" regularly) What a glorious summer that was. The most perfect time to live in North America as a teenager. What a lot of people didn't understand at the time was that the title of the album ("Songs from the Big Chair") was themed as if the singer was sitting in a psychiatrists chair and the songs on the album were his confession therapy to the psychiatrist. The "Big Chair" = Psychiatry patient's chair.
