5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent mixes, 29 Jan 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Closest Thing to Heaven (Audio CD)
Single is good but the remixes are outstanding. Solasso Remix is a more commercial house mix and (nice to have them back again) Brothers In Rhythm mix has already been played by Pete Tong on Radio 1 in the UK and is a cracking dance tune.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tears for Fears' "Closest Thing to Heaven" possibly is., 17 July 2005
By D.T. "RevolutionarioHombre" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Closest Thing to Heaven (Audio CD)
This is the first Tears for Fears single after the return of the celebrated band of the 1980s with hits such as "Shout" "Mad World" and who can forget their timeless hit "Everybody Wants to Rule the World." The duo's new single "Closest Thing to Heaven" with it's dreamy guitars, Orzabal's soaring vocals, a sing along chorus and drumming which makes you want to clap your hands or tap your foot throughout is wonderful.

The remixes also reintroduces the producing/remixing team Brothers in Rhythm whose claim to fame was working with pop star Kylie Minogue in the early to mid 1990s. Brothers in Rhythm 'Group Therapy Remix' and 'Dub' are their contributes to this single, but I would say it veers slightly too much from the original tune. The Solasso Club Mix & Dub are better remixes of the single overall with it's retro disco feel.

This is fine tune and a perfect for Tears For Fears to come back to the music scene. Welcome Back

5.0 out of 5 stars Solasso Club mix is electro house perfection..., 23 May 2006

This review is from: Closest Thing to Heaven (Audio CD)
The guys really move into the millennium with this remix, retaining their new wave feel, but with a modern twist. Also check out the cd single for "everybody wants to rule the world" by Chosen Few vs. Tears for Fears. Not as good but also worth a listen is the remix of "Call me Mellow" on Tears for Fears' "Everbody loves a happy ending" CD single
