The Seeds of Love

The Seeds of Love is Tears for Fears' 1989 album that expands their pop rock base into lush, art pop and sophisti-pop territory with strong touches of progressive and psychedelic pop. The record blends richly orchestrated arrangements, layered vocal harmonies, vintage keyboards and live instruments to create a warm, organic sound and expansive song structures. Notable elements include Beatles-influenced songwriting, soul-inflected balladry and collaborations such as the duet on "Woman in Chains", with the title-track exemplifying the album's elaborate, album-oriented production.
