Adam Lambert - Mad World (Studio)

[@kltpugharbor1]

I still come back to this and I always will. It’s just a stunning piece of music

[@mahnoorsabir5270]

I feel like so far Adam has been the only one to actually portray the emotion of this song with his voice especially the way he says 'mad world'. Just my personal opinion.

[@gehrigbjr]

He nailed this. I've been thinking about it for over a decade. Perfection.

[@denniswoodbury8599]

Not really a big fan. but Adam absolutely brought the music and lyrics of this song to a new shining level.

[@SaltyNation1]

damn dude .Not many times in life do u find a cover that's been done better than the original... most beautiful voice to ever come out of American idol

[@killmydreamdorothy8800]

The SaltLifeNative Channel totally agree.

[@tropicalrosie]

Totally agree!! 100%%

[@mariuszneugebauer8801]

You are joking.

[@TwilightingAngel]

He should have won that year

[@MokieMutt]

Who's listing to this on year 2020? Panademic crisis and all. This song is amazing and I love this version. but, it really hits hard. Please stay safe out there.

[@annsuing8271]

2023 and it’s still a mad world.

2024!!!❤

Still listening June 2024

[@heatherplummer9653]

I remember how powerful it was to watch this on TV for the first time.

[@SA-fy6tz]

True, it was spell bounding ...

[@SctsceDuwn]

I swear there was smoke when I watched it

[@glitterystar4]

Best version of this song, hands down. I remember when I came back from Australia my dad told me he recorded American idol and that there was a guy on there my family said I’d really like. I’d end up seeing him in concert several times and he changed my life. Thanks, Adam.

[@mariuszneugebauer8801]

Bullshit. No compare to the original.

[@suztem2698]

Adam Lambert is an amazing singer performer.

[@RachelTanKT]

Why is this song not on Spotify.......:(

[@SusanFleming-o7c]

March 16,2024 Adam I am still listening to you sing "Mad World". Stunning and oh so incredibly beautiful, you have such a special Voice, that is Beyond Reproach and extremely Sensitive and Sensual at the same time yet very Classy as You Are 🌹. Always, Susan Happiness to you Always Adam!!🌹

[@junekazama7]

Better than the original.

[@pavolstarcok2653]

Correct!x15

[@ngc6603]

Better than Tears For Fears or Adam's Live/The Donnie Darko version? Highly disagree but better than the latter ones.

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

Best version

[@shannonroberts213]

@@ngc6603, Tears for Fears sucks... This one's awesome!

[@MANHATTANBEEFMAN]

Substantially better.

[@rosemariecalderon7243]

100% the best version of this song👍👏!

[@franduncan1081]

Best voice to ever come off American Idol, hands down.

[@scottwaszak698]

The best voice of a generation.

[@mariagarza4953]

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Angelic Voice; the best version....Won't stop listening!!!🥰

[@normansullivan4097]

Adam turned in an awesome cover of this song and made it his own.

[@SusanKurka]

Gives me chills every time... What a voice, best cover ever!!

[@janetpierce676]

End of 2024 gang where u AT

[@rachelrobles5137]

Love Adam's version of this song! He has a beautiful voice! I'm a huge fan!!💜

[@alexisbrockway7672]

I've been looking for this cover for 8 YEARS!

[@spanish-inquisition2024]

This is absolutely beautiful, the best version of this song. I'm listening to it every first day of new year :)

[@spanish-inquisition2024]

only a few months left

[@janetmcguffey1394]

I know how real this feeling is..magic dark song and my now favorite vocalist.....life can be constant pain......cry........"look right through me.." yeah....says it all ...adore this and adore Lambert's talent...

[@slowflores3258]

He has an Amazing Voice. No doubt!!

[@Rain06]

Best cover of this song 👌

[@cassieennis507]

Lambert owns this one - even though he wasn't the one that released the tune. Unfortunately, you cannot find this version on Spotify - must have something to do with Fox or Idol owning it. The only version is an upbeat live version more like the Tears for Fears release. And it was originally on a movie soundtrack (Donny Darko w/Jake Jillinhal - something)

[@inasadworld]

A beautiful rendition!

[@861864131]

Amazing rendition...simply beautiful. Wish this was available for purchase.

[@lauracuellar293]

I think I saw it on iTunes. Check again.

[@jaimediaz107]

Going to see 😢Tears for Fears🫣tonight 7/29/23. They released the original version. Adam did an excellent vocal and arrangements job👏🎼🤘

[@RebeccaStout]

Way better than the original,and I love Tears For Fear

God have mercy on you

[@andrewmiller6663]

@@Joe900x that's what happens when you drink to much soy milk. I am only seeing this because my wife likes it, she's allowed to have high levels of estrogen.

I agree!!! And Tears for Fears is my favorite band

No.

[@LiamMcEwan]

Can’t get enough of this

[@amid_ysko]

All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for the daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere Their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles, it's a very, very Mad world, mad world Children waiting for the day they feel good Happy birthday, happy birthday And I feel the way that every child should Sit and listen, sit and listen Went to school and I was very nervous No one knew me, no one knew me "Hello, teacher! Tell me, what's my lesson?" Look right through me, look right through me And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles, it's a very, very Mad world, mad world Enlarging your world Mad world

[@deaconbelile4108]

I love this so much. It sums up everything that's happened becoming 18. I am really struggling. I don't know what to do, but it also covers how everyone sees what makes me me. Keep it up Adam.

A cow must be butchered if you want a steak.

Niki Dale No..... not sarcasm. This version is a train wreck. He changed the whole vibe of the song in an awful way.

@@alexcrowder1673, do you have ears? This version is at least 💯 x better than the original
