"Mad World" is such a classic! We had so much fun arranging this and we tried to give it a bit of a French flair - we even filmed it in Paris! Sorry it's taken sooo long for us to release a new video. We've been keeping busy with some new projects and have been traveling a bunch. We just got back from our first two concerts too! Thanks to everyone who came out to see us - it was so much fun meeting so many of you. Lots more videos coming soon, we promise! Thanks for watching :)
(And a big thank you to Ali Hauschildt and Jay Jameson for all the help with filming and childcare! xo)

Lyrics:
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their 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 sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda 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
Made to 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 kinda funny, I find it kinda 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
Enlarge your world
Mad world

Brooklyn Duo Bio:
Founded in 2014, Brooklyn Duo has quickly established itself as one of today’s most successful classical crossover ensembles. Through its creative arrangements and live video performances, the piano and cello duo has garnered a huge following, with over 600,000 UA-cam subscribers, and over 150 million streams annually on platforms such as Spotify and Pandora Radio.
On a whim, the couple arranged and recorded two pop covers and released them on UA-cam. Shakira noticed the duo’s cover of her song Empire and promoted it to her 130 million-plus fan base, saying: “We're loving Brooklyn Duo's piano/cello cover of Empire! Great work guys." The boost that resulted from that exposure and the positive response they were getting on UA-cam encouraged the couple to continue creating videos.
Since then, Marnie and Patrick have released over 70 videos on their Brooklyn Duo UA-cam channel and 7 albums of covers, spanning artists from The Beatles to Metallica to Taylor Swift (who also tweeted about them, saying their cover of her song “Blank Space” sounded "like a song people should walk down the aisle to"). In 2016, the couple started a second UA-cam channel, Brooklyn Classical, with the goal of introducing classical music to a larger audience. With this new channel, Marnie and Patrick aim to showcase high quality, live performances of classical music. Brooklyn Classical often hosts high-profile guest artists, including the world-renowned Dover and Escher string quartets and percussionist Ivan Trevino.
In 2017, Marnie and Patrick partnered with Carnegie Hall and Ensemble Connect, a collective of some of the best young musicians in the U.S., to produce a cover of a-ha’s “Take On Me”. The video went viral and garnered millions of views in just a few months. Popular classical music stations Classic FM and WQXR regularly share Brooklyn Duo’s music on their social media pages, with Classic FM calling the duo “masters of the artfully planned pop cover.” One of their covers was also recently featured in an episode of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy.

Brooklyn Duo I love this video!! Hope you had fun traveling
Brooklyn Duo i absolutely love this
Brooklyn Duo I was thinking about being the first dislike (I'm never 1st at anything) but then I heard your cover.
Brooklyn Duo haha a classic and a meme all in one!
That explains the "Yann Tiersen sound" you put in the piano, well done.
The addition of Amelie was a delightful surprise! Thank you two for always sharing your beautiful music 💖
God damn, that switch from cello to piano doing the "vocal" parts.
amelie comptine d'un autre ete MASHUP? 😍😍😍😍
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda 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 I 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 kinda funny
I find it kinda 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
Enlarging your world
Mad world
Two gifted musicians, two instruments, one of the greatest hits of all time... It can only be wonderful.
I absolutely look forward what might come in the future!
I see a little Amelie there haha!
тоже заметил
Me too ;)
Right away
Damn straight you did. Impecable taste in music
Andrei White yesssss
Beautifully played and so melancholy. Yet it brings back very happy memories of living in Bath, England when I used to see Roland and Curt in the various pubs and clubs in the town.
Ah Matt, your frame of reference - like mine - is the original song then, and not a cover version. Good lad ;-)
Everything about this video was perfect, the decor, the open window, lighting, coordinated color scheme, their clothing, and that's aside from the beautiful haunting piece. It was very nice to be able to see Marnie's beautiful face and balletic hands. She literally caresses the piano keys. This is truly my very favorite Brooklyn Duo video. It is a rich, nuanced and soul-nourishing, full experience in every way.
There are no words .... The marriage of two of the most beautiful instruments is mu-gasmic!
This pretty much sums up 2020 but This year has changed us all forever and no matter what We are still here we are still standing and we are still fighting to avoid our Extinction with every breath we take and with every step we make we must remain forever forward but never in a straight line
The subtle Cello and the delicacy of the piano.
Balance.
Memorable.
,
This has been a treasure in my music video playlist. Still, years later, and maybe thousands of plays it gives me chills. It's one of my favorite songs and your rendition is truly amazing. Please leave it up...forever. Thank you
I love listen this song, beautiful and sad. Now we’re living in “Mad World”.
Early on in thought it was gonna be a mash up with one of the songs from the Amelie sound track. So I guess I definitely heard the French influence.
Absolutely beautiful.
That’s what it was! 😃We added parts from the Amelie song to the piano part...you have a great ear!
I notticed it too and it startled me at first, as I was actualy listening to the Amelie piece before I listedn to this one, so I thought it was still playing in the background in another Chrome tab! Anyway, good idea using the Amelie left-hand tune as an arrangement, the pieces do mix well together.
I've heard this song done about half a trillion times in my lifetime and I gotta say, this takes the top spot.
those deep cello notes hit me to the core
Speechless, all I can say is very intense. Humans with musical talent truly are a gift from God
I duetted this song to this exact audio. I have a bass baritone vocal range and my opposing solo, had a high medium voice, so metaphorically I was the Cello and she was the piano. It was beautiful
Thank you so very much... love to the World 🌎 ❤ 💕 💙
Me encantan todos sus videos en mis tiempos libres los escucho y los repito a diario
gyus I don't have words to express how much I love to see and to listen you. It is a good feeling, I can feel peace.
Sweet. I brings to another world when I am listening to this music. So beautiful. I am flowing. Love it
Mad World used to be my favorite song until I strayed away from it after it became a meme, but this brings me back to how beautiful this song truly is.
This literally made me cry. In a good way. Thank you for helping me to feel something. 🥰
Beautiful. Now get back to work and upload more. ❤️🎵🎶🎹🎼🎻
Baby would like to have a word with you about that request....
This song, present this way, was exactly what I needed to hear in this moment.
Thank you to you two for sharing your wonderful passion and talent.
Heard this on PLL The Perfectionists, this music stood out from the rest, loved your cover. 👍
Iconic scene. 😍🔝
There was a memorable adaptation of Comptine in a BBC TV show called The Restaurant many years ago. I had a flashback listening to this. Very interesting and beautiful legato.
Awesome version of this beautiful song
I'm in love with this version !!! Kisses from France 😘🇫🇷
The Perfectionists brought me here to this awesome version!
Love your playing & music. You are both pure geniuses!! Love you both💕💕💜💜🌹
Extraordinary... PARADISE... wonderful...
It's hard to describe in words... My soul is grateful listening this music...
0:46 and 0:52 I love how you threw in Comptine d'un autre été, l'après-midi in there
Bravíssimo!!!!!😍❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love your version. I heard it for the first time in señor Avila. Just love it. Thanks 🙏🏻
This was so well played I won't even listen to the original version anymore. Great sound!
Nice to take us away from the chaos of 2020 for a moment. Thank you.
i m so grateful for beautiful feelings i had listening to this amazing arrangement, thanks to you two, and to gary of course
I can't express how much I love this. Two of my very favourite songs combined. Thank you!
因為有美好的音樂陪伴，這個午後時光，變得很美好……謝謝妳的分享！
A wonderful musicians.
Not going to lie, I felt butterflies in my stomach the very second I heard the mesh with comptine d'un autre ete. This arrangement was beautiful - as always with performances from you two! Great way to take two haunting compositions and piece them together so brilliantly. Loved it!
If you see this comment, please consider doing a cover of Yann Tiersen's version of "Rue des Cascades". I honestly think it would sound brilliant with a piano-cello duo! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Beautifully done!
God bless you both.. this is just magical.
Oh my god! My favorite song ever!
two beautiful instruments to hear😍😍
@1:31 my eyes just roll back and my mind drifts to the Bass of the Harmony . I enter a whole new hypnotic state of mind.
my fucking word dude that’s a bit melodramatic
if your eyes are really rolling into the back of your head everytime you watch a youtube video you should seek counsel at your local optometrist
@@beenjamminbuttons7771 nah I just have an appreciation for music you uncultured troll
@@yeerr5486 dude I appreciate everything from Simon and Garfunkel to Cannibal Corpse but my eyes have never rolled back in my head due to listening to a song
@@beenjamminbuttons7771 🤔 you may be on to something. You’re free to pay for my therapist bill?
Perfectionists! Amazing job
I got goosebumps
Oh my god ,you have no idea how much l Like this song and both of you 😍I hope one day I'll be the person like you and meet my soul mate 😊😊
I love that you blended a little of comptine d'un autre été into this ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful 😍😍😍😍 Love It!! So expressive!!! You are great!!!
"I find it hard to tell you. I find it hard to take. When people run in circles it's a mad world." is probably one of the best verses in a song ever because almost everyone in the world is just going about their lives in a circular pattern. Get money, spend money on ourselves, get more money, and now we are all nihilist and narcissistic maniacs who are libertarians to our friends and authoritarians to our enemies. God bless those who have any altruism in our little mad world.
I am always amazed at how good both of you guys .
I don't know, but iam crying, maybe for all the sadness that i kept in my heart for long time
The duo cello/piano is wonderful! Thank you!!!
"The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had... " this sentence always makes me think about the things that lyricist experienced.. what kind of life causes this sadness I can't understand.. I hope none of us will understand it
Lovely! There is a bass line that is neither the cello nor the piano being played. An additional cello line (1:52). Does anyone listen to that line? It's beautiful!
The best instrumental out there. Well done.
OKAY WOW im in love with the sound you put out in every video you guys make...
you guys make anything sound beautiful
I really loved this cover. You both have such passion. It's beautiful to watch and listen to. I knew years ago you would be big UA-cam stars and have never disappointed. Your performances are my absolute favourite. Please know you are very much appreciated. Thanks G.
That was beautiful.
Vocês São incriveis 👏💓💓
Amazing!
The best one
I love this so much!!!
The cello is absolutely beautiful
Simply AMAZING. Wonderful performance and really, really emotional.
Thanks. All we need is some beauty, pure beauty.
The melody of this reminds me of Gone Away so much.
Beautiful and expressive arrangement!👍Well done to both of you.👏
Once in a while I come back here to fell the sweet sadness of this perfomance
My favorite so far!
Excellent!!! 🤍🤍🤍
Que música linda, estou chorando de verdade, espero que o canal de vocês cresça muito. ありがとうごさいます por me deixar tão feliz vendo vocês tocando かわいいいい
Thank you for another wonderful video.
These guys have such a great understanding of each others playing and it truly is a joy to watch them play. On top of that, never in my life have I come across such humility as to what I have been shown of these.
I sent an email in a time of great need, I was in a bad place and a video they posted had really touched me, so I let them know - and their reply to this email really is helping me through my tough time - thanks again guys!
Absolutely beautiful.
Talented people. Very Respect.
BEAUTIFUL
.... had to listen again.. this is truly beautiful 🌹
