Song #5: "Mad World" by Gary Jules


        The song "Mad World" as performed by Gary Jules is a powerful piece that incorporates transcendental views. It shows the way society has fallen into a boring routine where everyone is basically a clone, and as the song says, "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." This line shows the common transcendental belief that being having your own beliefs and not conforming to society can be lonely at times, but it's what is best in the long run.

  1. Mad World was written by Tears for Fears. Gary Jules' version is a cover.
