’80s new wave band Tears For Fears are releasing a new album later this month.
“Songs For A Nervous Planet” is a live album with a few new songs and the band shared one of those songs, called “Astronaut” this week.
Bassist Kurt Smith says, “Emotionally, it’s about this guy who doesn’t feel he belongs here and wants to be an astronaut floating out into space… a lot of people identify with the emotion of that song, that sense of alienation.”
