Listen: Tears For Fears Cover Arcade Fire’s ‘Ready To Start’
Someone’s been getting a little caught up in the ‘Reflektor’ chatter…

Darlings of the 90s Tears For Fears have made an unlikely return with their cover of Arcade Fire’s ‘Ready To Start’.
A highlight from Arcade Fire’s 2010 album ‘The Suburbs’ gets a completely new reinterpretation by Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal. They go gung-ho in the gadget stakes, recruiting some D&B ‘beats’, all locked together with some signature vocals of their own.
Tears For Fears are apparently at work on a new LP. Although we’d wage they’ve just been scouring pavement streets looking for ‘Reflektor’ clues.
