Found this to be very wonderful.

Nice. I like TfF. Never thought Curt's voice was very good, but his daughter's voice is really good.

It's funny what time does to you, how you can look back fondly at things.
I HATED Tears for fears and cringed when I heard them on the radio and would shut it off if I could.

Now when I ocasionally hear the songs I rather enjoy them.
The good old days never seemed too good at the time.

I've taken quite a few classes at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago. At the end of an eight week session, your group plays a song for the entire group of classes that session. At the end of my very first session there, my teacher and I (yes, just the two of us, others dropped out of the class) performed this song. It went pretty well.

I was and continue to be a "moderate" fan of TFF. That was great and I found myself wanting to her sing on her own.

That is pretty good.

Still think Gary Jules does it better but possibly because it fits perfectly in Donnie Darko.

Very nice, sent a chill up my spine.

I found it amusing the article that accompanied the video calls it a "cover of a cover" and says most of us probably recall the Gary Jules version. While I do like that one, "Mad World" will always be a synth/dance tune for me. LOL

Me, too.

I prefer his live version best, though.

I love this dark eerie song.
