The pre-order window for the Tears For Fears Songs For A Nervous Planet SDE-exclusive blu-ray is about to close.

#28 in the ongoing SDE Surround Series, this blu-ray audio features four brand new studio tracks and the full live double album of 18 songs, from The Tipping Point tour. All audio is available in the following audio streams:

  • Steven Wilson Dolby Atmos mix (48/24)
  • Steven Wilson DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix (live tracks 96/24 – studio tracks 48/24)
  • Stereo ‘fold down‘ version of the Steven Wilson mix (live tracks 96/24 – studio tracks 48/24)
  • Standard Stereo Mix (48/24)

The fold down stereo is essentially the same as the band’s approved stereo mix, but being derived from the surround mix it has a different and less compressed mastering. Additionally, the blu-ray features exclusive instrumentals of the four new studio songs:

  • Say Goodbye To Mum And Dad – Steven Wilson Stereo Instrumental Mix
  • The Girl That I Call Home – Steven Wilson Stereo Instrumental Mix
  • Emily Said  – Steven Wilson Stereo Instrumental Mix
  • Astronaut  – Steven Wilson Stereo Instrumental Mix

Don’t miss out! The blu-ray audio will ship with a free and collectible SDE slipcase and is exclusively available via the SDE shop using this link or the buttons below.

The pre-order window closes on Saturday 21 September and is the last point you can guarantee a copy of this release, although as always, there may be some availability due to cancellations/contingency stock much nearer to the release date.

  1. This one hurts…. ouch! I saw an email earlier today, September 24th, alerting me that the pre-order window was about to close for Tears For Fears’ forthcoming SDE limited edition exclusive blu-ray audio disc of their first live album in decades…alas, I just found out that the pre-order window closed last Saturday…argh!!!

    I absolutely love this website, and consider it one of the finest in any area of life and art and culture, and especially regarding the fine art of appreciating physical pre-recorded music. However, I can’t always keep up to date regarding the wonderful, yet often nerve-wracking, endeavor called ‘SDE Exclusive’. Wonderful in that it includes absolutely massive numbers of audio mixes of high resolution music and bonus content, and all wrapped up in stunning slipcases and artwork. Nerve-wracking because to miss out on ultra-limited edition releases of exclusive content of your favorite musical entities is nothing less that painfully nerve-wracking!

    I have purchased approximately a dozen of these exquisite editions, and was very fortunate that SDE issued a second printing of Tears For Fears’ The Tipping Point, as I had missed the initial opportunity for a first run edition of the SDE Exclusive release of their first new LP in decades.

    Therefore I humbly ask/beg for Mr. Sinclair and SDE to seriously consider issuing a second edition of Tears For Fears’ forthcoming blu-ray disc and/or simply print enough additional copies of this exclusive release for those of us who missed out on the first run edition of this undoubtedly phenomenal live album of one of the most iconic musical entities in the world over the past four decades.

    Sincerely,

    PS; Please consider adding the opportunity to for SDE fans to subscribe to SDE text messages regarding newly posted content, deal alerts, and especially regarding SDE exclusive releases. Also please consider adding more compact disc and cassette tape options for SDE Exclusive releases.

    Thank you again for your phenomenal website, for your equally phenomenal SDE exclusive editions, and for your time and consideration regarding my above requests and concerns.

    1. There’s a button on the shop page that says “Tell me if you get more stock”. Theoretically, it should notify you when some copies become available (which usually happens). https://www.thesdeshop.com/products/tears-for-fears-songs-for-a-nervous-planet-sde-exclusive-blu-ray-audio

      Also, usually when someone notices a release is available again, it gets posted on the respective threads on Quadraphonic Quad and the Steve Hoffman forums, so you could keep an eye on those as well.

      1. Many thanks for your wonderful information regarding potential forthcoming available copies of the forthcoming SDE limited edition and exclusive blu-ray release of Tears For Fears’ new live LP. Tis most appreciated, and I’ll cover the bases you mentioned.

  3. Does anyone know if the version of Mad World is like the original or like the few times they’ve made it a bit more like the Donnie Darko cover version live?

    1. On this tour “Mad World” was being performed like the original version.

      The song on this tour that was the most radically different from the album was “Suffer the Children”. It was performed as a piano ballad and sung beautifully by backup singer Lauren Evans.
