| Essentially about primal scream therapy or indeed m ost forms of psychotherapy. You are often encouraged to beat a cushion or similar while shouting out to release anger at yuor parents/siblings etc - hence 'Shout, Shout, Let it all out' | |

| to villi, thanks for telling me that disturbed re-did it, i honestly didn't know that. Well as for what the lyrics think, i really think it's talking about a child facing problems with his parents in time of war. My reasoning on this is: In Violent times you shouldn't have to sell your soul, Those one track minds that took you for a working boy they gave you life and in return you gave them hell, oh i hope we live to tell the tale. Maybe it's not the case at all, but in any way it's a cool song. Powerful, and strong. | |

| I think that shorty415 has gotten closer to the true meaning of the song than anyone. I also think that it is about the dalemas between youth and their parents. Except I dont think it is about war time. I think it's about how some teen agers treat their parent like crap! "In vilent times" I think is about the screaming matches that bull-headed teenagers have with parents. That is why the song is called shout. I think the song is a mirror of much of society today. I dont think that many children these days are bering reared to respect their parents or any kind of athority figure for that matter. What happend to "Yes Mamm, No Mamm" Or "Sir"? Saddly I think is a reflection on the parrents who do not know how to rais their kidds and spend more time tring to be their friend and appeasing them instead of tring to be their parrent and rais them right. All the affect of selfish people wanting too many divorces and I include myself. | |

| It's just about everything that bugs them. They wrote the song during an experimental "primal scream" session with their therapist. P.S. it's a stupid song by a band of wussies. | |

| Actually I think MadShanghai is mostly right - this song is about a primal scream therapy encounter. Basically, during primal scream therapy, one lets go of every impluse and emotion with every thought. If you feel angry about something, frustrated, then you act it out instead of just talking about it. The idea is that if we let go of our repressed emotions which civilization places upon us (a Freudian idea that is also adapted by many other psychological trains of thought) then we can move on from these childish fears and wants that are holding us back and realize our true adult selves. This song talks about letting go of our childhood problems in shouts of anger, letting it all out. Like most fad therapies, most experts think this is another bunk idea. Tears for Fears talked a lot about repression and subconscious desires in their songs, even on "Call Me Mellow" on their new album. Since a lot of people think this is just wussie-hippie-in-touch-with-feelings stuff, they think Tears For Fears are a bunch of wussies too. I also believe that most counterculture ideals are well-intentioned but often wrong about many things, and Tears for Fears kind of represents the psychological aspect of the counterculture. Well, actually their music is pretty good despite the fact that their lyrics are annoying sometimes, and if you just take the lyrics for their camp value in the parts that annoy you then it's not so bad anyway. | |

| it was written in a counselling session non? curt smith was apparently a right disruptive child. so i guess it is about child hood, about not making your elders take complete control of you, cos hey kids can think too, sorta thing, there's loadsa childs in the video, so i sorta think thats what its about. | |
