Just wondering if anyone else noticed the similarity cause it was my first association when i first heard the song, especially the soundcheck version.

Btw, what an outstanding track Mad World is when i'm listening to it right now.

The verse melody is a bit similar I suppose.

I've always vastly preferred the original of that song btw, just in case you didn't know it was a cover (IMO the Gary Jules one is too overbearing - and since it's a cover, it can't actually be as personal as he tries to make it sound). The original actually reminds me more of EOTR than the Gary Jules cover:

It must suck to be a one hit wonder whose "hit" is a cover :))

Cool.

I can't stand the cover although I used to enjoy it years ago before I heard the original. Tears for Fears have some really good tunes, I always thought The Seeds of Love was an inspiration for All Around the World.

There are a lot of parallels between the first three Tears for Fears albums and the first three Oasis albums (1st = classic with a low budget sound, 2nd = classic with slicker production and more U.S. airplay, 3rd = bloated and overproduced but still better than anything they released after).

I think they're rather underrated these days, actually. My favorite song of theirs:

Doesn't remind me of EOTR at all btw.

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5
