on reflection i dont think people realise how good tears for fears where back in the day and how the songs are still relevant today
@WTDpuddles4 жыл бұрын
Of course tears for fears was terrific back in the day, but this song really hit its stride when it was covered by Gary Jules for the movie Donnie Darko. If you look back at the original music video for Mad world with Tears for Fears it is good, but it's very fast-paced and something like Gary Jules' cover works a lot better with the tone and lyrics of the song.

Gary Jules was a student of mine at UCLA. He gave me a burned CD of this song, with Mad World written on the outside of it. He gave me his album along with it. It was the month my second child was born, so I was rushing out of the classroom to take my wife to the hospital, and never listened to the song. When I finally did, I was so happy for Gary. Such a beautiful song from a great person.

I think both versions went for different effects. The original juxtaposed the irony of upbeat music with dire lyrics. And that conflict is a truth of life, we are pushed to be happy when we are not. We feel glad and sad at the same time, this is life if you think about it. Whereas the cover, went right into the lyrics, and went for the pure starkness of those cutting, intensely down moments that bubble up in life. A song without peer for the end of Donnie Darko.

+Amie SilentHill Roland was a talented songwriter, but Curt Smith is talented in his own way too as a vocalist ... Remember this, they tried to record Mad World with Roland singing but its was unsatisfactory, but when Curt sang it , quote, "suddenly it sounded fabulous" .. Curt's harmony with Roland's vocal made TFF really successful because Roland's voice alone is kind of too one-sidedly hard and not so sensuous, Curt added the critical element in the vocals giving many TFF songs a sensuous dimension that made the vocals powerful and sensuous at the same time ... You can feel Curt Smith's presence being critical in the biggest success of songs like Shout, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Mad World etc.. You can tell there is a lacking in all of Roland's solo efforts after Curt left, all the songs are not as sensuous, not as interesting ...

I'm thrilled that curt smith sang it the way gary did aswell but I still love the way he first did it. And that roland did a cool dance to it then.

That's so sad and beautiful at the same time. Maybe that's the reason... That's so beautiful because it's sad. Is it possible?

Mad World. I came to the song after buying Songs from the Big Chair. I was not disappointed. I bought the following three CDs. I was not expecting this combination. It is good.

I must say, Curt Smith has aged very attractively.

Great tune and Artist. We tried with my friend from R&O to review this great song. Maybe we succeeded, maybe not, we let you be the judge if you have two or three minutes to spare and a thumb up or down to add, come listen and judge us here :-) : kzbin.info/www/bejne/npnReI2Jo5JpmpY
