I love Tears for Fears after watching Donnie Darko.

"Mad World" and "Head Over Heals" are good.

Yeah.. I caught that. Pretty cool. Actually, the whole "the hurting" is an awesome album for Tears for Fears. A bit better than "Songs from the big chair" IMO. I thought that they went a bit commercial at that point.

What blows me away is when advertisers bring up old obscure 80's songs in commercials. I can tell that the ad execs are probably around my age. Without giving my age away, I'll just say that I'm a child of the 80's. I was also into alternative music when it was really an "alternative".
