Mad World

I feel your pain, I often try to get friends to listen to music I think is cool and usually get the piss taken out of me. Then these bands become "cool" and suddenly they're all out buying an album I've already relegated from my car to the house.

It bites, but by then I'm usually onto another album I like. And the circle of cool continues..... 😉

true.....i put a counting crows CD on in the classroom a while back and everyone was like "WTF" then when they released yellow taxi everyone was like "they're so cool"

Such a great song

oh my god i know how that feels..back in 1994 i introduced everyone i know to korn but no one gave a dame..after follow the leader suddenly they all became hardcore fans and till this day..it sucks

i don't like korn....but yeh. it sucks......and i don't even like the big yellow taxi song, it's rubbish compared to their other stuff....

Thats a great song

I've loved this song since I watched Donnie Darko, a friend of mine burned me the Gary Jules version long before it was considered so cool 😊

Yeah, i also loved that song when i saw DD which was like 3 yrs ago

the tears for fears version is horrible

I agree

THE TEARS FOR FEARS VERSION WAS MUCH BETTER. THE GARY JULES AND MICHAEL ANDREWS VERSION WAS BORING. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT GOT TO NUMBER ONE.

The Gary Jules version isn't boring... I think having a full band playing the song ruins it. It's better with just the piano, nice and simple. Fits the lyrics and the tune better.
