The Hurting is the debut album by the British pop band Tears for Fears . It was released on 7 March 1983, and peaked at no. 1 on the UK Album Chart. The album was certified Platinum by the BPI in January 1985.
The album contained Tears For Fears' first three hit singles – "Mad World ", "Change ", and "Pale Shelter " – all of which reached the Top 5 in the UK.
The album was remastered and reissued in 1999, and included four remixes as bonus tracks and an extensive booklet which described the recording process of the album.
Track listing
All songs written by Roland Orzabal .
Original release
"The Hurting" – 4:20
"Mad World " – 3:35
"Pale Shelter " – 4:34
"Ideas as Opiates" – 3:46
"Memories Fade" – 5:08
"Suffer the Children " – 3:53
"Watch Me Bleed" – 4:18
"Change " † – 4:15
"The Prisoner" – 2:55
"Start of the Breakdown" – 5:00
† The original cassette version of the album featured a bonus track – "Change (New Version)" – which was an earlier mix.
1999 Remastered and Expanded
As above, appending four tracks:
"Pale Shelter" (Long Version)† – 7:09
"The Way You Are " (Extended)†† (Elias /Orzabal/Smith/Stanley ) – 7:43
"Mad World" (World Remix) – 3:42
"Change" (Extended Version) – 6:00
† The 1999 remastered version of the album incorrectly credits Curt Smith as co-writer and Mike Howlett as producer of "Pale Shelter" (Long Version). As confirmed on the original releases, Smith did not write any of the tracks for The Hurting and this version of "Pale Shelter" is actually the 1983 12" extended version of the song, which was produced by Chris Hughes and Ross Cullum. Howlett produced the original 1982 version.
†† "The Way You Are" was originally a non-album track, though the 12" version was included on the remastered version of The Hurting in 1999.
