Tears for Fears’ Curt Smith gives an update on his injured ribs
July 29th, 2022 under Tears For Fears. [ Comments: none ]

Tears for Fears were finally back on the road, but they had to cancel their tour due to Curt Smith injuring his ribs. Now that the singer is back home, he gave us an update on his condition.

My update: Glad to be home & resting. Had a full CT scan on Friday and it appears I actually have 4 fractured ribs. That would explain the level of pain. Thankfully none are displaced enough to require surgery & should heal on their own in 6-8 weeks from the injury. ❤️.

Thankfully, Smith doesn’t need surgery. Hopefully, he will be better soon, and then the band can go back on the road, much to the delight of their fans.

Tears for Fears cancel their tour due to Curt Smith’s rib injury
July 15th, 2022 under Tears For Fears. [ Comments: 1 ]

Last weekend, Tears for Fears cancelled a concert because Curt Smith injured his ribs. Today, the band gave an update, and the fans will be hurting over it.

Following further examination of Curt’s rib fracture, doctors have advised that his injury requires strict rest to recover. As such, it is with a heavy heart that we share we must cancel the remaining shows of The Tipping Point UK Tour. We have absolutely loved seeing everyone and performing for you. We are so disappointed not to be able to play the shows which we have been looking forward to for so long and can’t wait to be performing for you again. Please contact your point of purchase for a full ticket refund.

I really hope that the 61-year-old singer is better soon. Their music is something this mad world needs, and it deserves to be heard live. Says the girl who has been a fan for a long time and never saw them live. So he really does need to get better because it is all about me seeing him live.

Seriously though, I really hope his ribs heal quickly.

Curt Smith’s hurting ribs causes him to cancel some Tears for Fears’ concerts 
July 11th, 2022 under Tears For Fears. [ Comments: 1 ]

Tears for Fears is back ruling the world on tour, but they had to cancel some shows. That is because “Curt [Smoit] has unfortunately injured his rib and is unable to perform.”

That statement was released on Saturday, and today the band announced that they will be postponing their next gig due to his injury.

Hopefully, Smith will be better soon, and they will be back to ruling this mad world.

UPDATE: Tears for Fears announced they will be canceling or postponing the next three concerts due to Curt Smith’s injury.

“We sadly are unable to perform at this week’s shows in Leeds, Warwick, and Scarborough. We are so disappointed and gutted not to be able to play these concerts,” the statement read. “Curt is following doctors orders and is doing everything possible to heal and be performing again soon.”

Psych’s third movie is a charm!
November 18th, 2021 under Dulé Hill, Psych, Tears For Fears. [ Comments: none ]

Back in 2014, USA Network cancelled Psych, and they realized they made a huge mistake. So, they made it up to the fans by giving us two movies. However, they didn’t air the second film, so they gave it to their streaming service Peacock TV. That telemovie did so well that Peacock gave them a third one.

So, you are cordially invited to Gus’ (Dulé Hill) wedding to Selene (Jazmyn Simon), which starts to stream today. Well, that is if the wedding happens. You see, Shawn (James Roday) finds out that Selene’s name really isn’t that, and he tells Gus.

Now the two of them are on a search to find out who is baby mama really is before he walks down the aisle. What mayhem will they cause? What will they find out about her? Will it be enough for the Groomzilla to call off his wedding?

While they are doing that, Lassie (Timothy Olyphant) is still recovering from his stroke, and Henry (Corbin Bernsen) is helping him do that both physically and mentally. It is a good thing they have each other.

It is also a good thing that Jules (Maggie Lawson) has Karen (Kirsten Nelson) to help her out as they try to find Shawn and Gus.

And there is Curt Smith from Tears for Fears. All I will say is he deserves the Emmy because you will be head over heels for him.

You will also be head over heels for Psych: This Is Gus. Psych is one of the most underrated television shows in the history of TV because of his humor, wit, originality, and chemistry. I am still hoping that one day they will bring it back as a series. But for now, these specials are a good fix.

They give you a season’s worth of feels in two hours. How often can you say you get two hours worth of enjoyment? You don’t, but you do with Psych. So don’t be like USA Network and tell them to “suck it!” Be like Peacock and watch it! I don’t know what that means but watch it anyways.

Pentatonix gives us a haunting take of Tears for Fears’ Mad World
September 17th, 2020 under Tears For Fears. [ Comments: none ]


Back in 1982, Tears for Fears released a song called Mad World. For years, it was a haunting melody that was mostly known by their fans like me. Then in 2001, Gary Jules slowed it down, and it became a little more known thanks to it being featured on the Donnie Darko soundtrack.

Then as that decade started to close, Adam Lambert sang it on American Idol, and Cory Montieth did the same on Glee. Now, the 30-old-tune had a new fan base. One that keeps growing and growing with each new take on it.

There is another one out now, and this time it is by Pentatonix. The acapella singers took away the instruments and sang the tune with just their voices.

No matter who has sung it in the past, this song always reaches into your soul. This version reverberates as it is there. When all of them harmonize together, I feel the echo of the lyrics go through my whole body.

Therefore, sit and listen, sit and listen, to the little ditty that gets bigger with each voice that utters all of its words.
