Songs from the Big Chair is the iconic second studio album by British band Tears for Fears, blending elements of new wave, synth-pop, and pop rock with an emotionally resonant lyrical depth. Produced by the band along with Chris Hughes and Ian Stanley, the album marks a shift toward more polished, radio-friendly sounds while maintaining an undercurrent of introspection and social commentary.
With its intricate arrangements, Songs from the Big Chair is defined by both its memorable hooks and its complex exploration of personal and societal struggles. The title is inspired by the psychological therapy chair referenced in the band’s earlier work.
