    I think my favorite point in the music video is kirstin's solo. where she sings with an almost deadpan face until she sings "the best ive ever had" with a smile. I dont know. it just fits the whole thing. that dreaming of such a dark thing is the one thing she smiles at through it all.

    9:30 Especially when the camera is close up on Mitch when he sings "Look right through me." You can tell he felt that line to the depths of his soul.

    Hard to believe that this song started life as a bit of a peppy 80's pop tune by Tears for Fears before it was covered in 2003 to it's current haunting version by Gary Jules. It was a brilliant cover that Pentatonix have redone here to make it even more haunting to fit into the lyrics.

    I have always thought/felt the "Ghost" images in the background, were those people running in circles, to go grocery shopping, pay bills, run those errands that never completely get finished. PTX just flipped the script, usually those people are in the foreground, and the singers in the background. But here the song, the singers were the attraction, not the people.

    The whispy imagery also harkens back to the movie “Donnie Darko” which definitely enhanced the popularity of this song when it came out. It’s definitely a weird and haunting movie, but should definitely be viewed once by everyone.

A super catchy original song that I just heard for the first time (!) even though it’s old (2015) is called Na Na Na (audio-only). It IS one to play on repeat in your car after you’ve listened to Mad World and want to raise your spirits 😁. Highly recommend it.

Gary Jules covered it many years afterwards & that version is what most ppl think is the original. I know this because A. I am old(ish😉) and B. I was always a TFF fan. Fun fact: The TFF version is very upbeat! It's great in its own right. But Ptx just made me love their cover better! MOOR PTX PLEASE!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    They did this one towards the beginning of the pandemic, so all filmed separately. Agreed, it's a brilliant arrangement and video concept. I don't think you've done any of Scott Hoying's solo work yet (just Superfruit and other collaborations). He just dropped a new video a couple days ago for one of the songs from the EP he put out last summer. This one is "Bubs", a hauntingly beautiful tribute to the puppy that he and Mark lost early last year to a rare aggressive cancer. All of his own solo work is beautiful ( a lot of it is love songs to Mark 🥰), but this one hits in a different way. The other new solo he put out a few weeks ago, "Flaunt It" is a completely different vibe-very up-beat, build up your confidence type of song!

    This was one I loved right from the first few seconds of listening to it. I'd heard Tears For Fears original and the sort of ordinary/sorta happy vibe they used for the video confused me. The lyrics didn't seem to match. This cover is astounding!! It gave me goosebumbs right from the beginning. The visuals are so smart and chilling in the intensity and the haunting atmosphere they portray. Finally, there is a video that matches the depressing, haunting lyrics.
