A Spadecaller video featuring selected paintings by Toulouse-Lautrec, Norman Rockwell, and Matthew Schwartz. Choreographed to accompany the song's dark and mysterious lyrics - about the observations of a young person's perspective of this "Mad World".
"Mad World" is a song by the British band Tears for Fears. Written by Roland Orzabal, which became their first international hit, reaching the Top 40 in several countries between 1982 and 1983. Almost two decades later, the song made a popular resurgence when it was reworked for a much slower, ballad-like style by composers Michael Andrews and Gary Jules for the soundtrack to the movie Donnie Darko. This version reached #1 in the UK in December 2003, and became another international hit.
