The Seeds of Love came about in 1989, and was a lot more experimental, psychedelic, and rockier than the previous albums, although it did spawn a couple of hits ("Sowing the Seeds of Love" and "Woman in Chains"). Second was the aforementioned Songs from the Big Chair. First there was The Hurting in 1983, which sounds more like an angst-ridden Depeche Mode album this is where the single "Mad World" came from, which later got a more popular cover version by Gary Jules that was used on the Donnie Darko soundtrack. Of course, many fans over at their Last.FM page would have you believe otherwise, and, to be fair, those three are far from the band's only songs to get radio airplay their other well-known hits include "Mad World" (which has probably become as well known as the three tracks above), "Pale Shelter", "Change", "Sowing the Seeds of Love", "Woman in Chains", "Advice for the Young at Heart", "Break It Down Again", and "Closest Thing to Heaven".īesides Songs from the Big Chair, Orzabal and Smith did release three other albums. At least, these are the three songs that you hear on the radio all the time and are featured in "best of the '80s" compilation albums in the 21st century: This band's three most famous songs come from their 1985 album Songs from the Big Chair.
