Tracks from the Saturnine Martial & Lunatic Album

The following tracks are from the album Saturnine Martial & Lunatic, which is the second official compilation album of Tears for Fears.

“Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams” is a song by Tears for Fears, initially appearing as the B-side to their 1990 single “Advice for the Young at Heart”. The song was later on remixed by producer/DJ Fluke and released as a single in 1991. It became a number-one hit in the UK Dance Chart, while reaching number 70 on the UK Singles Chart.

Although still a Tears for Fears track, the Fluke remix single was credited only as “Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams”.

The songs title is taken from a short story written by the American writer Sylvia Plath, which was the title story in a collection of her short stories posthumously published in 1977.
