One of my all time favourite songs is Woman in Chains…The song is about a woman who is trapped in a relationship with a bullying, possessive man. The duo performed this song with Oleta Adams, who later went on to a successful solo career, scoring a huge hit in 1991 with "Get Here."  After a long career playing piano bars, hotel lounges and showrooms in Kansas, Oleta Adams was discovered by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith of Tears for Fears while touring America in 1985.

Oleta Adams was playing in the bar of a Kansas City hotel and the duo paid $1.50 to get in as she was singing. They were impressed by her talent and 2 years later invited her to sing on 2 tracks, "Woman in Chains" and "Badman's Song" on their The Seeds of Love album and perform with them on the subsequent European tour. This led to her own contract with Tears for Fears' Phonogram label, and Roland Orzabal co-produced her Circle of One album.
