Mad World - PIANO AND VOCAL cover by Mark Matthews ( tronious )

[DelilahFarenheit]

lmao I was thinking about doing a piano cover (with vocals) so I looked it up to see if anyone else had done it really well... Yeah I think I changed my mind O_O you rock, dude.

[MrJeredriq]

why i'm listening this everyday? 

[tronious]

You all are really cool. Thanks a lot for the nice words!

[trentmuch1]

No. He wants it too much, too desperate. A talented, and sorry loser.

[tronious]

@trentmuch1 LOL! I usually don't respond to these types of comments...but...

What exactly do you believe I want? Fame? A record deal? From posting COVERS ON YOUTUBE!?!? LOLOLOLOL. The last thing in this world I want is either one of those things...believe it.

I have everything I could ever want. These videos are for my family to watch. Getting in touch with all these people on YouTube and having them leave positive comments is a wonderful side effect of that. Grow up...get a friend.

[popgirl959]

[asdfuygqebmxvngkqbjd]

Hey, all your covers are awesome, hard to find good piano covers with vocals on youtube. Can you do no such thing by john mayer please?

[shadowcat7879]

You sound absolutely amazing in this one! I do believe that it is the best and closest sound to GJ cover of this song that I've heard. Thanks for filling my ears with pleasantries!

[theacme1000]

WOW. Just stumbled across you. 2nd vid I watched & I had to subscribe.

[Archenemycaitsith]

[BuryTheCastles]

muaha, just thought this song (vocals and piano), thought it worked out quite well, but watching this makes me realize that so much more that I still need to learn xD your voice is absolutely awesome. best cover ever <3 keep up the good work [=

Aww . . I wish I had a keyboard for this song instead of my piano it sounds much better! By the way, I think that your version is better than the original. Well Done :)

[kkc0161]

[emeraldjonez]

That was sexy as well as a great vocal. You should turn up the heat in that room more often. ;)

[cs21421]

thumbs up

[hckeynut15]

Had to view this again. Well done Mark...

[BrickUnit]

do you have postive feedback? why? though? why disable ratings?

[ArShProductions]

This is without a doubt the best version of Mad World out there, studio version, covers, etc. This is the best one yet. Looking forward to more.

[dylnc14]

[CheapForMe]

We love the piano too! Please Don't Go by Barcelona is a beautiful song and we know you can play it. We'd appreciate it much to hear your cover for this song.

[CheapForMe]

I've listened to all of Mark Mathews covers, even his originals. Will someone please sign him for a record deal? He has amazing talent that should be shown to millions. Way to go Mark! We'd love to see you win a Grammy on MTV in the future. Good luck and best wishes to an extremely talented musician.

Mark, awesome as usual!!

[TiffanyAnneMusic]

You are very talented! I LOVE your voice! :)

[AlwaysSmiling23]

I'm completely floored by your incredible talent. In many cases, I think that you have taken what the songwriters have written and elevate it to something etheral and more personal. Your voice is absolutly captivating; so much so, that I actually signed up for this damn site just so I could leave you a comment. I listened to "Mad World" first, was utterly taken back, and then proceeded to listen to the rest of your works. Please continue to fill my ears with your beautiful voice.

[P0wn8ge]

Dude you got a crapload of talent, way to go!

[hckeynut15]

Bravo Mark. Very well done!

- Jim

[ognibbingo]

Wow, amazed.

[jdjustice72]

[killenemokids]

Wow, you really did do this song justice. Its an amazing song and it means so much to me. It makes me think of my brother, who passed away almost a year ago to the day. It was his favorite song.

Thank you for doing so amazing!

[tronious]

Thanks a lot Josh

[feelxthelove]

Let me know when I can love this anymore than I do.

[Thenameslaura]

amazing as usual.. if i could rate this more than 5* i sure would x

[tronious]

Thanks a lot everybody!!

[benjilake]

Great work, Tronius...very inspiring. Are you figuring out the keyboard by ear, (probably) or are you getting ahold of some good sheet music? If the latter, where do you get it.

[tronious]

hey thanks a lot!

I usually just listen to the songs a few times and picks out the "main hooks" and figure out what key each set of lyrics is in and then attempt to arrange it how I'd like it.

When I do get sheet music it's usually from the local Guitar Center :)

[bim2x4]

this is exquisite. great movie too.

excellence is like the norm with you now Mark

[tronious]

ha I don't know about all that but thank you!!

[fender0strat]
