Mad World


I noticed that another one of the video links here has gone AWOL, so I went back to look for it at the original site I found it on and then on YouTube, but could not find it.  However... what I did find was something that caught my eye on the side... the song was "Mad World". I wasn't too sure if it would be the one I remembered from my high school days, but I clicked on it anyways. It was the same song, but was a cover by another band. I distinctly remember one of my favourite lines from that song being "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." The year was 1982 or 1983... the band... Tears for Fears. This version is ... haunting.


To remember that they are still there and to honour the fallen since last time.

T:
... and the sad thing is that there are probably people who aren't even aware and some who don't care.
