#Lyrics mad world gary jules movie#

The song is not just a a gloom vision of the world, it just describes it as it is, at least today. You don't have to be depressed to see or understand how the world is. Cristian from ArgentinaThis is insane.

Oh and this song it not best known for Donnie Darko, as that movie was a flop that no one saw!! Gary Jules only had to play a few random chords and bang. The proper version by Tears For Fears required talent to program the synthesizers and mix and master them. It's just a piano and a voice - anyone could have done that. Tears For Fears is better than Gary Jules and all the other versions out there.

Alex from Spokane Wai love mad world good song and i kinda agree with cristian from argentina but in a way i connect with the song.The bleak music approach seems to be the most common. It starts out all bleak and switches to upbeat music, but a very different take on the music. The Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox/Puddles Pity Party/Haley Reinhart version is an interesting one. That loses something that the original had. But the key of the music and how mellow it is matches the bleakness of the lyrics rather than contrasting them. I do like the Gary Jules version as well. A world that doesn't make sense because we do go about our lives every day in spite of there being plenty of bleak things reflected by the juxtaposition of bleak lyrics and upbeat music. But even more, the upbeat music against those bleak lyrics is, well, mad. In a way, the upbeat music against the bleak lyrics reflect that. But every day people get up and go about their lives, some actually oblivious, some tuning the world out so that the bleakness around them doesn't beat them down. Which, of course, isn't all there is to the world. The lyrics do paint a picture of a very bleak world. Jiminy from UkIt's interesting that some think the original music doesn't fit the weight of the lyrics.
