Tears For Fears: Head Over Heels



This scene from Donnie Darko probably gained a whole new heard of fans to this song as well. Its a great movie and this is a fine homage to a great song.

It was a toss up between this song and The Working Hour, both of which are on Songs from the Big Chair, one of my favorite albums also. I went with Head Over Heels, but i like them equally.


To listen to Songs from the Big Chair in its entirety is something i would highly recommend to you if you have not done so in a while. In fact, i will say its worth listening to all Tears For Fears albums in order simply because each album is a journey piece. They tend to tie song into each other, as with Broken & Head over Heels. They will even tie songs together from different albums, which is something I have heard Sting do also. I think of it as a way an artist might connect with a listener over time. As if to say, "Are you still there?"
