Sierra Hull, "Mad World," Grey Fox 2018

[@kastenolsen9577]

We live in a world gone mad by greed, lust, and division. We are ONE RACE, one people. It does not have to be like this. Come together as one, cooperate. ❤ is all we need!!!

[@ShanePeden]

The mandolin solo at the end put it over the top. Wow

[@pablosdog2808]

Like she was channeling Jerry…

[@elmateo624]

Compare this solo with the DelFest 2022 solo. Both amazing, but the DelFest solo haunts my daily thoughts!!!

[@larryh7202]

I think Ive watched every video of Sierra playing Mad World. It seems like the song has a very personal deep meaning for her. There's playing song and feeling it,,shes definetly feeling it!

[@SonoranArt]

Such a beautiful voice !!! ❤❤❤

[@mikoval5786]

Anyone trying to start a life today can relate to this.

[@MeganStout-sr4oz]

Just love her voice with this song it’s like tea and sugar. Blend together so sweet!

[@seanschmidt2793]

Zackly 🎉

[@jonwhitt3679]

This may be the best cover of any cover in the history of covers.

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

Truth!

[@adrianstunt1829]

ABSOLUTELY! It was a diamond of a song by Roland and they've made it into something even more beautiful. Didn't think it was possible. Wow! These are exceptional artist's!

[@stevenhanson6057]

That bass about split the world in two. Thank you for your art. Blown away!

[@billivey2774]

Apparently, I can not get enough of this as I'm up well over 100 views at this point since first discovering it almost a year ago. Every note is just right. Simply gorgeous.

[@ThinWhiteAxe]

I kinda feel similarly

[@DCFusor]

And we only get to "like" it once. Doesn't seem fair.

[@dmz140]

I've watched this a bunch of times. better than the original for sure.

[@juliaschlegel7175]

Yeah, me too

[@kevinspurgeon4760]

Agreed, on repeat...❤

[@ThinWhiteAxe]

This is my favorite version of this song anywhere - it's just got such an atmosphere.

[@jensmarkgraf]

I prefer the Version at DELs. The band is so charming

[@lpd1snipe]

I first heard this in 1982. I absolutely love this rendition. Thank you for sharing!

[@paulwormwood6414]

Love tears for fears. Love you.❤❤❤

[@pnachtwey]

I knew I would thumbs up this when I saw the KZbin icon. I like her voice. No gimmicks. Great instrumentals too.

[@moe42o]

She does the best version of this song. Amazing amazing amazing!

[@daf827]

She is fantastic.

[@davidstisher7389]

Such a beautiful performance.

[@lornebailey1568]

In the 90's I used to go up there when it was Winter Hawk , Allison Krause was just a kid , I attended a work shop with her and Allison Brown , it really gave me a new appreciation for Blue Grass Music. Everything about Winter Hawk was great save for those cold ass showers.

[@peterlustig6279]

God gracious, this is so beautiful.

[@brentmcd37]

She's a rockstar. That solo at the end 🙌🙌🙌

[@pablosdog2808]

Anyone else get the shivers?

[@guitartec]

It's good to see Sierra break out. All the power to her! I'll be watchin' all the music she puts out

[@chrisbryant1657]

Beautiful! I wish Sierra would play the Fender mando more.

[@ThinWhiteAxe]

me too, it's just utterly gorgeous

[@HowRJ]

I love the unison sting bend at the very end.......

[@westva22]

So beautiful and incredible

[@tomratcliff3755]

She is mesmerizing. Thanks for putting this up.

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

Our pleasure Tom!

[@rigdastig]

Amazing!!!!

[@casard5235]

Beautiful song, thank you.

[@jpomorgan9818]

I love to see a young artist stretching out. Beautiful.

[@timhalley6987]

Oh my. Flawless music. There's a depth of emotion that doesn't come cheap. Brilliant.

[@L.o.v.e.l.e.s.s]

Think sierra’s live covers of Mad World have got to be the best I heard . You should check out Kurt and his Daughter doing a lockdown cover.

[@billivey2774]

I just found that one last week, and I totally agree. If I had to listen to only one version of this song for the rest of my life, it would be this one. But two? Father-daughter, for sure. They sound great and it's so sweet.

[@L.o.v.e.l.e.s.s]

Yeah I’m with you that , Sierra ‘s version for the rest of my life too 😊

[@leirobinson3103]

Love this! One of my favorite Tears for Fears songs!,

[@mrcool9672]

Yeah! player is holding it down AND Laying it down 👏 👏 👏

[@goat165]

By far my favorite rendition of this song!!!

[@jakeparsons5490]

Phenomenal

[@mochynddu723]

Hairs on the back of the neck, eyes moist, during that solo.

[@sevets2000]

This girls is just mighty good; just excellent!

[@nitehowler7207]

Her solo at the end makes me think of Peter Frampton. It's just amazing!

[@98Z28LS1]

She's got the it factor! Such an awesome talent. Beautiful version of Mad World!

[@freddienh]

soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo GREAT!

[@Dlrealife]

Is this beautiful, or what? Thank you LTF, thank you GF and thank you Sierra

[@billivey2774]

It must be beautiful, or I wouldn't have immediately started replaying it. :-)

[@ddbtdd]

I found her on Folk Alley awhile back. She is really great!

[@seekingredemption9804]

Dang i love this woman

[@michelbonnet584]

That's crazy the number of covers of this song from Tears for Fears (1982), including Gary Jules (2001)... This one is very cool.

[@davidlowney634]

Grey Fox is wonderful

[@bikramjitgoswami9139]

Too good

[@johntomlinson-j6x]

cool 🍁 first time hearing this very catchy tune covered. almost phycodelic with the electric(mad) mandolin lol🤠

[@jonathanholland1196]

Is that an electric mandolin? I've never seen one of those. Ahh, that's awesome!

[@RussellDOwen]

Though a cover, this is really almost another (beautiful, haunting) thing entirely

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

I agree Russell. Sierra captures the melancholy of the original and also puts her own unique spin on it.

[@rickb9238]

Just happen to find you playing with Tuttle and decided to check out some more. Wow! You are really good.👍👍

[@seanschmidt2793]

Good golly, Miss Molly ❤

[@nickrandall2154]

Just came across this, superb, thinking, wish i had seen this live, i kinda think i may have cried,.. in a good way....

[@badlandskid]

Catchy tune.

[@paultarp9150]

Mad mandolin skills also. I'd be so glad to be playing my guitar next to her.

[@mariogentile2973]

Bravissima, bravissimi!!!❤👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@kurtrypar5062]

Einfach nur wow 👍👍

[@ArtFernandez1]

Belle voix. Quel talent !

[@GracefulJ]

wow beautiful! I miss so much at this festival so thankful for what is captured and shared like this!

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

Glad you enjoyed it Graceful!

[@georgesydney4541]

Epic...

[@tommybyrne8092]

Nicely Done !

[@SilwerSurfer]

[@TheSecondNature]

That lick at 4:13 - WOW. She's a dream

[@kevinduff3584]

Pretty exceptional isn't she she's very talented move over Alison Krauss Bluegrass's new queen! Please rise Sierra Hull!

[@edeledeledel5490]

No-one needs to move over... it's not a bleedin' competition... there's room for every good musician of every kind - and Alison Krauss was instrumental in encouraging Sierra when she was very very young...kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnW9aoOEarBjbLM

[@DanielCPurdy]

There’s a clip of her playing with Alison when she was 8 or 10 years old. Good friends these days.

[@chuckdavinci9044]

Alison was her first important music teacher, as they were both child prodigies.

[@herbertwells8757]

Cool song.

[@burnhamny]

so nice

[@moe42o]

3:40 rip it up girl!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@vsadams]

👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@jeffandsherriefranzwa8970]

Sierra's beautiful voice and smile remind me of Suzy Bogguss.

[@barkbarkatthemoon]

wow

[@briand1980]

Does anyone know what happened to Justin Moses? I don’t see him with the band.

[@hippiehillape]

Im in a mandocaster rabbit hole. This is the payoff for everything i just learned

[@alessandrodelaisla9988]

Greetings...

[@bensprinks]

Pay that stand up bass player more! He makes the song!

[@martinnielsen7218]

Angel with a mandolin

[@user-mr9xe6lr3y]

Wow 🥲

[@SilwerSurfer]

இڿڰۣ-ڰۣ-

[@alvarobayugar9889]

Listen to Sierra, I remember at alanis morriset!!

[@PerfectDanceVideos]

What instrument is she playing? Seems to be a 4-string Fender Stratocaster mini-guitar? Or is it an electric ukulele? I cannot find this model anywhere online.

[@TheRolfano]

Mandolin

[@PerfectDanceVideos]

@@TheRolfano Wouldn't a mandolin have 8 strings?

[@CCRAPresearch]

@@PerfectDanceVideosNormally, yes. But not on the Fender mandolin, apparently.

[@PerfectDanceVideos]

Now I have learned it's called a tenor guitar. These days, Fender sells a Telecaster tenor but not a Strat.

[@charlesbolton8471]

@@PerfectDanceVideos No, it is a Fender Electric Mandolin. Fender produced them from 1956-1976 is very small quantities. They also briefly did an inexpensive Chinese made reissue of the originals in the early 2010s. The reissue was called a Mando-Strat, but the originals were only listed in Fender literature as “Electric Mandolin”. However, many people called them Mandocasters even though Fender never officially did. The Fender Custom Shop has also made a few of these electric mandolins for people over the years of its existence including making one for Bluegrass Mandolin Legend Sam Bush. Unfortunately, for Fender in between the ending of the original models in 1976 and the introduction of the reissue the Eastwood company trademarked the name Mandocaster for their solid body electric mandolins. Even though acoustic mandolins almost always have eight strings, some electric mandolins only have four strings. There are also electric mandolins with five strings and eight strings. The number of strings DOES NOT determine whether or not an instrument is a mandolin. For what it’s worth, this one is an older Fender Electric Mandolin and not one of the reissues.

[@Collateralcoffee]

Missing the drums from the other version.

[@shingabiss]

Should be 'no expression' not 'no exception'. Still, I love Sierra Hull's voice!

[@ArtFernandez1]

What fender model is this?

[@99guspuppet8]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ GOD made her sing this way GOD made shish kabob

[@sloebone7399]

Wow! She must be 9 feet tall!

[@chefpaddy]

Actually she's teeny tiny...

[@MeganStout-sr4oz]

❤ 🎉😮 that is all😅

[@phillipshirk767]

Sounds a little like jerry garcia!!!!

[@LukeDallert]

no exception, no exception? It's "no expression, no expression" isn't it? Beauuuuutifuuuuul cover though.

[@chuckdavinci9044]

In the Tears for Fears song they said no expression. Sierra brought that some prodigal feminine wisdom and then I gave you a perfectly fine excuse to sit and listen, sit and listen 😭🥂

[@JohnSmith-mo9nj]

Talk about irony..

[@lewisg1736]

I’m not a fan of the electric mandolin.

[@seanschmidt2793]

You'll have plenty of time to get over it 😂🎉

[@eddygray9295]

She doesn't know the words there's a difference to the meaning see right through me and look right through me to see through someone means you're on to him to look through someone means you don't even notice her there

[@jordymaas565]

done good but. - there's tad disconnect in their versions of this classic; - did good but.
