still hoping finch will be together.. and hoping that they can come here in philippines.. finch,. especially nate.. you guys have so many fans in here..
ok i love this song and i love the fact that Nate sings it very well...maybe doesnt exactly bring out the best in his vocals but he is rather talented i mean "what it is to burn" for example... that is one of his best songs back when finch was together...I MISS FINCH!!! MAD LOVE FOR FINCH FOREVAH!!!!
@JoachimX9 ah pish posh :P I think he is singing really well - but i guess that is just my opinion. I couldn't sing that well no matter how hard I tried.
if he wants to not be himself that's up to him to do , and he asks for it ok, but if others are pushing it on him BS booo on the PUSHER ONERS ur restricting his gr8ness and individualism might as well fry a french fry instead of creating a cream of potato souffle bisque mmm someone focus on that recipe instead of making him let his soul guide him if he asks... respond ..don't imply or apply to him let him do it in his time be stand back guide !!"Horus Arev"!!

Sounds like someone at a party thinking he is gr8 after a half a dozen of beers. I'm not a hater, just that this guy really should do some other genre of music.
@tearsofjoy100 Gary Jules is a one-hit wonder, unless you can name one other song by him. I can name THREE other Tears for Fears songs: Shout, Head Over Heels (off Donnie Darko, BTW), and Everybody Wants to Rule the World. That's NOT bs, that's FACT.
@knoose Words mean something. You can't call a band that has toured the world amateurs, at least not in the music biz. Now get back to your Facebook/texting/tweeting/whatever else crap kids are doing these days. I bet you're not even out of high school. BTW, how many of those songs have hit top 40 status?
@tearsofjoy100 I sincerely hope you're not calling Tears for Fears amateurs. Other than Mad World, what Gary Jules song has been on the charts(the unthreaded reply format sucks, BTW>:()?
@ femritegirl gary jules never made this song the original mad world is by the british band tears for fears who wrote this song and had a hit with it way back in 1982
I have to say this version is amazing and I totally agree with CatFlashBlue. The orginal by Gary is amazing, but I tend to look at songs, not by who made it first, but the quality of the song itself, and I have to say this version is nearly better than Gary. Adam Lambert's I have to say is the best though. But all compliments on anyone directly goes to Gary, if it wasnt for him, you get the picture.
I like the cover, his voice is awesome and their other songs are amazing. But I don't like how he changed 'I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad' to 'I think it's kinda funny, I think it's kinda sad'.
I think he buggered up the start. In my mind, it is supposed to sound distorted and off. Which leads to the darkness of the song. He just didnt get it right for me.
@04Billzer u know i dont know i listened to it a few mins ago and theres is a little to fast... it just seemd to take away from the song... BUT it is your opinian, i respect that
This is what happens when you take an emo rocker who knows how to play 6 chords, murders the opening riff, and tries to do an original cover of a song that will hard to outperform another cover (Gary).
Stick to cutting yourself and crying about how your parents love you too much ... it seems to work better for you.
It's not that bad. I've heard much worse covers of this. (Have you heard Evergreen Terrance cover it!?) But I do agree, both Gary Jules and Tears for Fears are way better.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Very poor performance...At the beginning he barely gets the fingerpicking done...No emotions...Bad guitar playing...BUT: tatooed all over ! Make space for some good musicians !!
well if this is finch as in the band he has a bunch of good songs though not really in the same style. give say hello to sunshine a listen. it's really good.
The "bad" quality makes it more human and more relatable, unlike the ugly computerized and perfected voices that are hitting the top charts, such as Hannah Montana.
Umm...mrquitenormal, you didn't even post a comment expressing your opinion about this song. Tis a good song tho, in my mind. I give it 6,790 thumbs up.
Mr foulsymphony and lamlordEVIL - I feel sorry for you because from your responses it's clear that you haven't received a proper education. I encourage you to learn how to spell and construct sentences. If you don't then you will be unsuccessful for your entire life and the only person to blame for that will be yourself. Regarding the other comments - discussing subjects such as 'hot' or 'faggot' is clearly stupid. Critique the performance with intelligence & sincerity or don't post at all.
Love it!!! :)
