Mad World - Gary Jules ASL

i realize that my signing is not that great and that some of the signs i use might not be correct. i'm a beginner. if you have any tips for me, that would be great :)

here are the lyrics:

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces

Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression

Hide my head
I want to drown my sorrows
No tomorrow
No tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very
Very
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday

And they feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me

Hello teacher
Tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very
Very
Mad world
Mad world
Enlargen your world
Mad World

Nicely done! I may use yours to kinda practice mine x) haha but well done, well done

[ambrow4]

@chompteeth thanks! let me know when yours is up- i'd love to see it!

I can't figure out what sign you're making at the beginning. The lyric is 'worn out' and you make a fist and wave it side to side in a downward motion.

Could you tell me what it is, please?

[ambrow4]

@ImaginePeaceDream absolutely! that's the sign for old.

[chompteeth]

@ambrow4 It should be up now, I messed up a lot though haha

I think it's great that so many people are signing now and posting their vids. on here, 2 years ago when i did a video,signing the very same song, no one had done that before so I had nothing to compare myself to, not only with this song but any song, there were very few ASL videos, but now u type ASL and get a whole bunch of results :) The only thing i would say is there was one part where you moved ur hand to brush ur hair away while u were signing, u want to avoid un-needed movement
