Curt, this needs to be on the radio! You're voice sounds the same as it did 30 years ago! I heard this right after the Arcadia Fire cover. I actually thought it was another new TFF track, for a second. Overall, I hope this is ANY indication of what you and Roland are conjuring up for 2014. Thank God the bands of 30-40-50 years ago are still at work: Otherwise, we'd be drowning in musical mud.ag0

Complete rip off ->  Goodnight Lovers - Depeche Mode (first bit is)...another song is a Keane Rip Off!

It's so great to hear just CURT.......I love TFF's music as a team but with the solo project I can hear what Curt has been wanting to express....So lovely~

Easily my favorite song of Curt's solo work! Loved it so much that I had to buy it!

A song about my eldest daughter when she was 10. The most amazing child who unfortunately at that age was going through a period of self doubt. Beautiful Failure was how she saw herself, not how I saw her.


Beautiful failure, sooner or later we’ll say so long 
Unusual stranger, counting the days until the tide runs out 
We’re winding down 
Hey as long as you can smile you’re alive 
Won’t you stay and just breathe for a while 
You’re a mile away 
Beautiful failure, growing in greater than the sum of your parting 
Goodbye familiar alien, huddled with strangers round the fire 
Escaping the cold, don’t cry 
Hey as long as you can smile you’re alive 
Won’t you stay and just breathe for a while 
You’re a mile away 
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall 
And down comes cradle baby and all 
Beautiful failure, bolder and brighter than the sails 
That take you away

Beautiful Failure

I'm a singer-songwriter-musician. (Yeah, I'm also half of Tears For Fears.) Thanks for giving my solo material a listen.

Beautiful Failure
