This song is da bomb
I downloaded the song from the commercial that Maureen and I were talking about. the name of the song is "mad world" by tears for fears...it's very very good and the lyrics are top notch...i highly recommend you download the cover by Gary Jules...check out the lyrics...i think they're beautifully melancholy
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to 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
It's a very, very
Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to 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

Who knew it was Tears for Fears....I haven't heard of them since like 1988.
It is totally haunting. Thanks Butch, because it is know stuck in my head, AGAIN!!
I'm gonna have to start siging "Rock down to Electric Avenue" just to get the haunting melody out of my head....
Yea Butch... thanks for the song... I can't get it out of my head. And it's so funny when you hear the original Tears for Fears 1980's version... so very different then the one we all like... it's from the "Donnie Darko" movie sound track. Love some Jake Gyllenhaal.
yeah, i'm glad you guys enjoyed the song. it is so sad in an intelligent way. I think the lyrics are fantastic. And you're right...tears for fears? who knew huh?
