  • Rust in peace, Dom :(

  • stfu about a game this doesn't even fit that game one bit this was originally made for the movie Donnie Darko look it up and its a cover of Tears for Fears original for those who think he made this to begin with he just put the actually feeling to it Tears for Fears put an ironic feeling to it with an upbeat rhythm

  • okay shut the hell up with the R.I.P dom its annoying and just a game character its not like hes a real person some deal with that shit all day and miss their loved ones and you people are being crying over a game. Damn grow up.

  • @EluSiveViSionZ You mad Bro ? ? ?

  • @EluSiveViSionZ I hate to be the serious comment, but I don't think you should tell people how they should react to someone being dead, living or fictional. If people want to cry, and be upset, they have the right to(not saying you don't have the right to not like it, although you're being a real dick by doing that). I nearly cried, because if you played the game, and got as immersed as I, and others did, then maybe you'd understand.

  • @EluSiveViSionZ  and this song was out way be4 tht game

  • @EluSiveViSionZ ur jst jely

  • @EluSiveViSionZ R.I.P Dom

  • @MrLeonidas0001 ur a fag

  • This takes me back to Donnie Darko. Honestly I love Tears for Fears original version But I think This Cover is By Far the best version of the song I have ever heard. Mad Respect to Gary Jules.

    Another thing I am a Fan of Gears of War. The way it was Used in the Game Just made the song very powerful that it made me cry.... Please guys respect the other Players out there who haven't played a game and let them find out what happens.

    Dedicating this Song to My friend Chris Happeny. R.I.P.

  • Why dom?! =(

  • damn this brout tears to my eyes r.i.p. dominic santiago

  • thiz iz a song u would sing at a funeral

  • i am from the 90s the difference is the newer generation seems to be emo ours was angery

  • @qmking87 Well, perhaps the angry generation put my generation in a hopeless world where "emo" is the only thing we can find.

  • .......

  • hes talking abouut the hopelessness of society... being looked over as a child... the way people live their lives... running in circles... the part about dying in dreams is a statement about the most memorable dreams being the ones when something terrible happens in them... thank you

  • @WAR1PATH not really he is just saying that the world can be crazy not that society is hopeless....

  • @WAR1PATH Actually, as someone who has struggled with depression, I'd argue that his line about 'The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had' is a perfect expression of the hopelessness you feel sometimes. I know those lines ring so true for me that it just kinda hits you. Also, Tears for Fears wrote the song :)

  • @spsawyer22 you have to remember that dreams can sometimes be a foresight of actual events in your life or others..... i still believe that a majority of people do not respect the life that has been given to them.... i know you may but not enough do... in that respect i think that society is so against each other that its hopeless.... if we all worked together the world would be a better place but no... we fight against each other to get more "money"

  • Good song but really depressing. Anyone know what the song is about???

  • @barrett50cal92 Life.

  • im so depressed</3 this is my song...FOREVER

  • a depressing song

  • This song seems so powerful that somone could get obsessed and end up doing the job.

    Anyone have, "I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad, the dreams in which im dieing are the best ive ever had." stuck in there head, YET you feels the devil is taking you over because your actually saying that?

  • that was beautiful.

  • so many devils..

  • The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had....

  • this really doesnt have enough views.

  • This song could make God cry.

  • I think it's funny. He sounds like Winnie The Pooh.

    Beautiful song though.

  • This song is the perfect song for if you ever feel your day's just being a little too happy. :(

  • when you listen to the lyrics and realize how true this is you'll probably cry...

  • @JakeFuckingAlvarez

    Nah, it's just the way he sings the song. The original Tears for Fears version sounds like something out of Arkham Asylum.

  • love this song absolutely heartmoving

  • like this if you werre brought here from the carmine tribute

  • This is a phenominal video!!

  • shivers... jesus save us all

  • not to be mean but this version is kinda boring i fell asleep listening to it once or twice before

  • 15 people are just plain ignorant.

  • i blasted this song when the tsunami hit japan :( God bless them

  • [0:00] <-- This is the re-play button. Have fun.

  • I cried. Literally.

  • Said it once and I'll say it again.  I LOVE Tears For Fears, but they missed the boat on this song. This is the way it was meant to be. It is haunting, sad, sexy, and loving all rolled up into one. That is a powerful song when you can get all those emotions out at once. It's like a skelton key to the soul.

  • fucking awesome song

  • some songs will make you laugh..other bring bring tears..many will cause a smile..this song does all that and more

  • i made me cry and i know how you feel

  • @formigalformigal It's Brooklyn

  • wow this is my first time hearing this song lolz. freaking awesome song

  • ONE M0:00R TIME!

  • Does anybody know where this videoclip is filmed? what city? Thx :)

  • @formigalformigal

    There are two iconic buildings which give this away. I am not sure of exactly the location of the shot itself other than its a view of an unordinary view of New York City in the distance.  The Citicorp tower and Empire State building are in the vid. There is one view of New York that is similar in skyline and that is a view from Hoboken, New Jersey across the river to New York. Thus, I must assume that the Vid was shot in New Jersey but not sure where.

  • @pablo222AAA Wow dude very detailed description. Thank you man, i appreciate it :)

  • @pablo222AAA Wow good descrption. Thank you :)

  • no one knows 15 people

  • Beautiful.

  • What are the kids trying to be at 2:17 ?

  • @KelbyTV i think its a bird

  • @KelbyTV Their a bird i guess 0.0

  • Sad... all the credit goes to gary jules/gears of war... no knows even knows that tears for fears wrote it anymore, they were one of the few 80's artists didn't go fucking crazy with pop

  • @TheLightningSaix But can you see why? The original one sounded like a techno rape mediocre song...Gary Jules saved this song...I've tried listening to the original version of this song....I turned it off 10 seconds in, that shit just fucking sucks.

  • @iampokefanjohnny It was the god damn 80's besides it sounds nothing like techno just because of that weird sound, it doesn't make it techno. Plus the song was intended to state how crazy the world is, but this one is like the world fucking sucks and should be ended... -.-

  • @TheLightningSaix maby not ended but changed dramaticly...

  • @manwithlargerpenis12 more like suicidal

  • @iampokefanjohnny its not fucking techno

  • Comment removed

  • @jnixlikesdix dang streight, it's not even close to techno

  • its like this song doesnt even belong to tears for fears anymore, gary jules owns now ...its like Cash's cover of hurt, even trent Renzor said cash mastered his song more than he did

  • Let's watch Donnie Darko!! :P

  • 15 people should get shot

  • great song and video. kinda creepy which makes it even better

  • This might be dumb to ask, but what the hell is the video about?

  • @TheSlavedBoreChris thats actully a good question lol

  • @TheSlavedBoreChris its about my virginity

  • DONNIE DARKO.

  • What a beautiful, but sorrowful song. I always get the chills when listening to this song. ;\

  • This video should have been about a guy sitting in an empty apartment in that building writing his suicide letter.

  • I have to say that I disagree with all the people who've posted about how this song points out what a terrible world we live in. While it does say that, you're leaving it too short. The final lyric is "enlarging your world". The point of the song is that we have to expand our worldview to see BEYOND just the pain and sadness. It's a terrible, chaotic, mad, but beautiful world.

  • @CaptainMisterDoctorE Well said, m'dear. -.-''

  • @CaptainMisterDoctorE You're summing up the lives of so many people.

  • this song express that human race today we live in are own made hell pit we got kids bulling kid we got country vs country we live in a mad world but we all must keep god in our heart

  • It's a sad song and I absolutely love it and I guess sometimes it's best to say things in song. Me, I'd write an essay.

  • at 2:16 wat r they tryin to make....i dnt see it

  • @cheeZwiZcraZ i think it's a bird...

  • @Zesinua hmm im not sure it looks like a beatle kinda.....with pinchers

  • @cheeZwiZcraZ a bird

  • @cheeZwiZcraZ ..how could you not see its a bird you DUMBASS

  • Miss you, Jason. Can't believe it's been 4 years since you went away. Love you, bud.

  • Miss you Joe; you were the best Father in Law and an even better Grandpa to my son. Life will never be the same: Ever

  • I Miss You Mom and Dad:(

  • Donnie Darko

  • This Song Makes Me Depressed D:

  • Morgan, i miss you

  • this songs makes me really think about my life and what i take for granted :( but its a good song

  • @SK8FOLIF77 me 2

  • Donnie Darko is the best movie ever

  • @RMimz yeah but i can't get pass the giant rabbit

  • This song is helping me understand that bad things aren't just my problems. Growing up sucks, so much change.

  • @DEADMANSJOURNAL growing up is hard theres too many changes

  • @pinheadrulez77 oh ima fag cuz i can simply relate to this song? wow dude i bet ur a real hard ass ain't ya. if a song hits close to home, ima be moved. just cuz i said i teared up don't make me a fag, leave ya stupid ass comments for someone who's selfconcious about wat they say.

  • This is a great peice of music because Gary doesn't try too hard, he sounds so run down, BEAT DOWN BY LIVING IN THIS MAD WORLD. His sick sarcasm, when he jokes about "I find it kind of funny" and "Children waiting for the day they feel good, Happy Birthday", both run chills down my spine. :)

    Thumbs up if you agree

    -singerseeksband

  • i will not lie when i first heard this i shed some tears.

  • @gangstashit45 Honestly dude chill... I was just fucking around I wasn't meaning to hurt anyone at all and I mean... I cried to this too... Most people who listen to this will. I apologize for your loss. I didn't mean to hurt anyone or offend anyone... I was just making fun of your name...

  • @bonboog its all good dude, im not the type to get all jacked up over the internet, i just feel my screen name shouldn't have anythang to do wit wat i say, we all have loved and lost an you can't help but to be tear jerked by a song that describes how you feel/felt, its cool
