主题：Mad World

Mad World 是英国乐队Tears for Tears在82年创作的早期作品之一，由Roland Orzabal创作和乐队贝斯手Curt Smith演唱。Mad World是乐队发行的第三首单曲也是第一首榜单热曲。20年后，因为电影《死亡幻觉（Donnie Darko）》在片尾使用了 Michael Andrews 和 Gary Jules创作的叙事版本Mad World,使得此曲再度走红。这一版本在2003年12月达到了英国热销单曲的首位，同时，这首单曲也被用于视频游戏 Gears of War 的宣传片中。


没能找到Curt Smith的版本

下面是Gary Jules的版本

女声版的（Alex Parks演唱）

2009年4月，美国偶像电视节目选手Adam Lambert 演唱了Michael Andrews 和Gary Jules 的版本，在2009年5月19日的决赛中，Lambert 选择Mad World, 使得此曲又一次流行。

Mad World
(Orzabal)

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 expressiοn, no expressiοn
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
'Cos 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

居然把这个翻出来了，再温习

一直听的是女声版。

 

第二个男声版也喜欢。唱的很梦幻。
