The Hurting would have been a daring debut for a pop-oriented band in any era, but it was an unexpected success in England in 1983, mostly by virtue of its makers' ability to package an unpleasant subject - the psychologically wretched family histories of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith - in an attractive and sellable musical format. Not that there weren't a few predecessors, most obviously John Lennon's Plastic Ono Band album - which was also, not coincidentally, inspired by the work of primal scream pioneer Arthur Janov

The Hurting would be Tears for Fears’ most collaborative effort. Curt and Roland nearly equal each other in the lead vocal department with the opening title track featuring both as the frontmen. With each progressive album, TFF would become more and more Roland’s brainchild as he agonized over every nuance and dominated the microphone. I am hard pressed to think of any other band that featured one singer on every successful pop single, with resulting albums favoring the & singer.

Tears For Fears is one of my favourite bands and their debut album, "The Hurting", has a very powerful impact. If you can't believe me, just listen to the lyrics in this album  . 6 people found this helpful.
