Originally released in 1983, the debut album from Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, otherwise known as Tears For Fears, lit the touch paper that blasted off one of the most stellar careers of the 1980s. Immaculately produced, stunningly sequenced and comprised of a sequence of timeless electronic pop classics, ‘The Hurting’ sympathetically explored themes of childhood angst, adolescent heartache and the struggles of the transition from boy to man. It also gave birth to four of the era’s essential singles – ‘Suffer The Children’, ‘Pale Shelter’, ‘Change’ and the landmark megahit ‘Mad World’. Compiled and remastered with the full involvement of Roland and Curt, ‘The Hurting – 30th Anniversary Edition’ brings together the relevant B-sides, remixes and BBC sessions from the era (many on CD for the first time) on 3 CDs, plus a first-time-on-DVD outing for the legendary concert video ‘In My Mind’s Eye’. Also comes with an extensive book containing interviews in a new essay from Paul Sinclair about the album, a discography, and photos. The first 500 people will receive a free, limited edition 7” vinyl in rare black and white picture sleeve of ‘Change’. Please Note: 7” vinyl are strictly limited and are available on a first come, first served basis. universalmusic Tracklistings Disc 1 play 01 The Hurting 4:16 play 02 Mad World 3:35 play 03 Pale Shelter (2nd Single Version) 4:24 play 04 Ideas As Opiates 3:46 play 05 Memories Fade 5:01 play 06 Suffer The Children 3:49 play 07 Watch Me Bleed 4:15 play 08 Change 4:13 play 09 The Prisoner 2:55 play 10 Start Of The Breakdown 4:57 Disc 2 01 Suffer The Children (Original Version) 3:40 play 02 Pale Shelter (Original Version) 4:39 03 The Prisoner (Original 7" Version) 2:43 04 Ideas As Opiates (Alternate Version) 3:53 05 Change (New Version) 4:36 play 06 Suffer The Children (Remix) 4:15 play 07 Pale Shelter (Long Version) 7:09 play 08 Mad World (World Remix) 3:39 play 09 Change (Extended Version) 5:59 play 10 Pale Shelter (New Extended Version) 6:44 11 Suffer The Children (Instrumental) 4:26 play 12 Change (Radio Edit) 3:58 13 Wino 2:23 play 14 The Conflict 4:02 play 15 We Are Broken 4:03 16 Suffer The Children (Demo) 4:04 Disc 3 01 Ideas As Opiates (Peel Session 1/9/1982) 3:48 02 Suffer The Children (Peel Session 1/9/1982) 4:03 03 The Prisoner (Peel Session 1/9/1982) 2:50 04 The Hurting (Peel Session 1/9/1982) 3:45 05 Memories Fade (David Jensen BBC Session 20/10/1982) 4:56 06 The Prisoner (David Jensen BBC Session 20/10/1982) 2:49 07 Start Of The Breakdown (David Jensen BBC Session 20/10/1982) 4:00 08 The Hurting (David Jensen BBC Session 20/10/1982) 3:50 09 Start Of The Breakdown (Live At Oxford Apollo/ April 8th 1983) 5:56 10 Change (Live) 4:00 Disc 4 01 Start Of The Breakdown (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 6:14 02 Mothers Talk (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 3:50 03 Pale Shelter (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 4:35 04 The Working Hour (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 6:29 05 The Prisoner (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 2:52 06 Ideas As Opiates (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 3:43 07 Mad World (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 3:36 08 We Are Broken (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 2:57 09 Head Over Heels (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 4:49 10 Suffer The Children (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 4:02 11 The Hurting (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 4:24 12 Memories Fade (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983) 4:51 13 Change (Live At Hammersmith Odeon December 1983)
