Who Is Better? Thompson Twins or Tears For Fears?

<br>I have 15 Tears For Fears songs in my itunes, but just 6 Thompson Twins songs, so that speaks pretty clearly which band I prefer to listen to more often.

I did see OMD open for Thompson Twins in concert (12/1/85) at Public Hall in downtown Cleveland, OH and it was a great show... I have not managed to see TFF yet, hopefully someday.

I also remember driving around the summer of 1985 with Songs from the Big Chair on constant repeat play in the cassette deck of my car.

I saw them a few days later when they were in NY and it was a great show also. I remember hearing quite a few people say that they were there for the OMD concert, featuring the Thompson Twins as backup group[:)]
