“The original singer for Mad World, Curt Smith of Tears for Fears, teams up with Gary Jules who did the Donnie Darko version, to do a duet of his classic song using Gary’s arrangement.”
This is one of my absolute all time favourite songs out there and I love that they have come up with this pairing to perform it.
I didn’t hear this song until a few months after I saw the movie Donnie Darko and came across a Japanese visuals video set to the song.
Ever since then, it’s been like it is with all my favourite songs: find all the different versions I can.
