Yeah, sure enough it did. And it does not include Sowing the Seeds of Love twice.

The tracklist was a copy/paste from the Amazon listing for the double LP not single CD:

Amazon Amazon


2 greatest hits releases for a band that's been around for several decades isn't that many.

Are they considerably different versions like Mad World? I wouldn't mind both being included in that kind of situation?

It's Amazon's mistake. The song isn't appearing twice.

Speaking of Tears for Fears I was listening to Raoul and the Kings of Spain on the bed and it was not a bad album though I only got to 4 or 5 songs before falling asleep.

I forgot Curt Smith was not involved in that album though I prefer Orzabal's voice and singing.

Yeah, "Raoul" was a pretty good album. "Humdrum and Humble" is definitely the best track IMO. Orzabal is a tremendous talent. He's not only one of the most underrated song writers in modern rock, he also has one of the best voices from the 80's and 90's. I've always been a massive TFF fan and sadly never saw them in concert with Smith until he rejoined the band. And the first time I saw "them" live was during the "Elemental" tour. Great album and fantastic show. I couldn't believe how well Orzabal pulled off the older TFF songs without Smith. It was both flawless and seamless. Roland released another album after "Raoul" without Smith and was going to go under the moniker of TFF again. But because "Raoul" was such a commercial failure, decided to just release it as a solo album. And it was fantastic. Sadly it too went largely unnoticed. The standout was "Bullets for Brains". Sounds like classic TFF.
