Pertama kali dengar lagu ini waktu nonton trailer 'The Craizies' yang konon akan diputer mulai tahun 2010, langsung jatuh cinta. Ternyata videonya lumayan populer juga di Youtube. Versi Gary Jules yg pertama kali launch sekitar awal tahun 2000-an sudah ditonton kurang lebih 37 juta pengguna youtube.. Nice... Tapi anehnya beberapa orang mengaku berniat bunuh diri setelah mendengar lagu ini (Versi Gary Jules). Sadis ya.. Tapi emang sangat mengaharu biru sih musiknya..
Original by Tears For Fears, but I love Gary Jules version, and now also covered by American Idol Season 8, Adam Lambert. Bahkan konon juga versi Adam Lambert ini dapat standing ovation dari semua juri AI 8, jarang2 kan si Simon Cowel ngasi standing ovation. Here's the lyrics..
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 its 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 its a very, very
Mad world, mad world, enlarging your world
Mad world
