  • So cool, and the lyrics are so great

  • good ol gary

  • Great voice .. :-)and song too.

  • Simply just sooooo AMAZING! :D:D:D

  • it makes me cry

  • This song was released as a single in 9/82, written and performed by "Tears for Fears". It was included in their album "The Hurting" which was released in 3/83. Their version is more up-tempo and campy than what you hear here. Gary Jules covered this song for the movie "Donnie Darko" and slowed the tempo. In 2009, American Idol's Adam Lambert covered this song on the week of "Your Born Year" (Adam-1982). He chose Gary Jules' haunting version. They both covered this song beautifully.

  • that guy looks like he could beat the hell out of someone but he sings well as well 2 good qualitys

  • so beautiful, i love it

  • I love this song! IT GODLY!

  • DONNIE DARKO COLONNA SONORA!!!!

  • Here is your final solution:

    Go to iTunes where it is officially registered, and find the version you had in mind (there are several). There it should tell you the information you need.

    Also,

    This song was part of the score (or added to it?) to the movie, Donnie Darko.

    And yes, astonishingly beautiful.

    Best Cover Songs!

  • One of the best covers of any song I've ever heard.

  • cover? gary jules wrote this as far as i know.

  • It's orignially written by Tears for Fears

  • No its not ... im 100% sure about that!!!/ Nina

  • are you retarded?

  • its a cover..

  • Tears for Fears wrote it but Gary Jules does a better job my opinion just because I think it's nothing as emotional in the Tears for Fears version. the Synth kills it -- 80's. hehe.

  • no, tears for fears wrote the song. look it up, it's a 80's song

  • thanks i hadn't been told by three people already. i'd never heard the original version both sound great but i like the slower version.

  • yeah, the gary jules version tends to hold more emotion than the tears for fears version in my opinion. This song has been covered by so many people it isn't even funny, but the weird thing is is that i haven't heard a cover from this song that i didn't like. The lyrics itself are amazing

  • right u are:)/Nina

  • It's no cover, Gary write he's one songs:)

  • this is a cover

  • This song is originally from Tears for Fears and was on the album The Hurting that was released 1983. Gary Jules made a cover on this song together with Michael Andrews for the soundtrack of Donnie Darko around 2000.

  • The lyrics are just so beautiful...

  • one of the greatest songs ever for sure
