Go, don’t go’ made it all the more poignant.” Also the final lyrics being ‘Stay, don’t stay. We felt ‘Stay’ had a similar effect as ‘Listen’ on Songs From The Big Chair, it was a long calm breath at the end of the album, the palate cleanser.
“It has been remixed to be more in line with the recording and flow of the album, the flow of the album being the reason it was chosen,” Smith says of the inclusion of “Stay.” “We do have an old school approach to albums in the sense that it needs to tell a story, as well as have a side one and side two. The Tipping Point also features “Stay,” which was one of the two new songs the band recorded for the 2017 best-of compilation Rule the World. It’s a slow, heartfelt ballad which I try not to listen to too often,” Orzabel says. But that song lay dormant for a long time. Tribute is the second live album and third concert film by Greek keyboardist and songwriter Yanni, released in November 1997 on Virgin Records.It was recorded at the Taj Mahal, India in March 1997 and the Forbidden City, China, in May 1997, both featuring Yanni performing with a seven-piece band, choir, and 27-piece orchestra. However, some songs from the failed collaborative sessions found second life on The Tipping Point: “My Demons,” written with Sacha Skarbek and Flo Reutter (“I must admit I am very proud of the lyric, kinda ‘Boy in the Bubble’ on crystal meth,” Orzabal says) as well as “Please Be Happy,” “an agonizing plea to the person you love as they struggle with depression. The result, opening track “No Small Thing,” is what the band cites as the catalyst that sparked The Tipping Point. Instead, Smith and Orzabel did something they hadn’t done since there were teens: They sat in a room, acoustic guitars in hand, and started making music. There was no artistry, no dynamics, no personality to the album,” Orzabal says. Nashville Tribute Band’s first Christmas album, Merry, brings style, celebration, and a true sense of joy to classic Christmas songs as well as several moving originals. I like a lot of them but when configured into an album, they were tiring to listen to. “We went along with the process and amassed a lot of up-tempo attempts at hit singles. There were even numerous petitions against it, which over 20,000 people signed. When it finally came time to make a new album a few years ago, as the duo notes, they were encouraged by previous management to work with an army of “today’s hitmakers,” each of whom tried to”recreate a Tears for Fears classic.” The sessions were an epic disaster, the band admits, and another tipping point. The rumour that Kanye West was planning on making a tribute album to David Bowie provoked some serious uproar. Tears for Fears hadn’t intended to take such a long break between albums “I would say life and geography got in the way,” Smith tells Rolling Stone, adding that while the band still toured frequently, they didn’t want to be “helicopter parents” to their then-young children.
