Was watching CSI Tonight and heard a cool version of the old Tears For Fears 80s hit Mad World. Turns out it was on the soundtrack for Donnie Darko, a sci fi flick I missed but seems to have done very well on DVD. Being an 80s music guy, I found a UK dual CD release of the soundtrack that is just a great collection with some of my old favs like Echo and the Bunny Men. If any of you have seen the movie, let me know what you think. I’ll look around for it.

Check out Michael Andrews version of Mad World. You have to download the whole album to get it off of Itunes but its worth it. Anyways, the words are still as good as nearly 20 years ago (ugh, has it been that long?).

Gary Jules – Mad World

All around me are familiar faces. Warn out places, warn 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 want to drown my sorrow, no tomrrow, no tomorrow.
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 it’s 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 school and I was very nervous, noone knew me, noone knew me.
Hello teacher what’s my lesson, look right through me, look right through me.
I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda 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 it’s a very very mad world…
mad world…
enlarging your world…
mad world…

Too bad about the copyright police. I’d love to play it on the podcast.

    So the copyright police don’t mind you playing Green Day?

  2. Rob Taylor says:

    The movie is excellent, by the way. It’s sci-fi but not in the typical sci-fi sorta way. I love it!

  3. James Walton says:

    I also seem to recall, I believe, that the song was also used on the final episode of Las Vegas from last season. Again, I say I believe, because I am not 100% certain other than when I heard during the opening of CSI I knew I had heard it not too long ago on another TV show… and I don’t watch that many. As for Donnie Darko, haven’t watched it but perhaps I’ll rent it.

    By the way, just started listening to your podcast about 2 weeks ago – I really enjoy it, keep up the good stuff!

    As much as I hate the site, the Windows Media Player store has the song for individual download and not just the whole album. (I hate to share this news as a die-hard itunes user).

    Always good to hear from new listeners. I may just have to track down the UK cds. As to me using Green Day, as I understand the copyright laws regarding podcasting and limited use, you are legal as long as the clip does not exceed 60 seconds. That has been the guide Jan Polet has used for his hit test, so until he says otherswise and lands in jail, I figure small fry like me are safe.
