[edit] 2001 recording
Donnie Darko was released, with the Gary Jules version of Mad World, in 2001. So obviously it can't have been a 2003 recording. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{2}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{2}}}|contribs]]) 21:16, 21 January 2006 69.231.166.204 (UTC)
[edit] DJ Tiesto
Didn't DJ Tiesto do a remix of Mad World as well? I have the MP3. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.138.80.156 (talk • contribs) 20:29, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
It may be an MP3 of a remix that was on some CD he assembled or a session mix where he sequed from one song to another without really making a new mix of the song. However, if there is evidence of a significantly different mix, then that would be interesting to note. Hu 04:27, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Crowded House
hmmmm.... Didn't Crowded House at least do a cover of this song? As for who did the Donnie Darko version i wouldn't know. Most people confuse it with REM. Factoid Killer 23:35, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fan-made
I removed "A fan-made video of the song with a Resident Evil theme can be seen here: [1]" because it can be found thousands of this videos and i dont see whats special about this one to be par to the article --Guillo7x 12:37, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Without a Trace
I added a blurb about the Gary Jules version being used in the TV series "Without a Trace" --1:30, 7 November 2006 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.45.164.104 (talk • contribs) 01:51, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Gary Jules-version
Is the 2001 version by Gary Jules the same as mentioned one section below, on the KLLF album? If so, one should be removed, if not, the difference should be stated... Both claim the Gears of war-song was derived from this. Both claim to be used in the Donnie Darko movie. I believe somebody made a mistake and the KLLC-section is irrelevant because it's just an unimportant compilation album, but I'm not sure... --Pie.er 11:01, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
I edited the title to the Michael Andrews/Gary Jules version because Gary jules is playing the piano while Jules is just singing. It was also part of the Donnie Darko soundtrack which Andrwes was in charge of, so i bealive they both deserve the same credit. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.157.206.75 (talk • contribs) 04:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
The Gary Jules version is in the trailer for "Gears of War" for the Xbox 360. I beleive this trailer would be a good link if there would be a video for this page because it is done professionaly, though i do not know where to find it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.225.233.21 (talk • contribs) 02:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Gears of War
The song is featured in countless videos. Unless the video is an original production of the artist or one its re-creations, the article should not link to other fan videos. Even an ad for a video game is a third-party source and is not directly relevant. You might as well link other song titles to the limitless car ads that use them. --Scottie theNerd 04:20, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
I disagree. --Thezeus18 23:18, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Good for you. --Scottie theNerd 00:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] R.E.M.
So R.E.M. did do a cover for this song? I'm looking for their version but it seems to sound exactly like the Jules version, right down to the voice... can someone help me?
