Nov 21, 2008 - When i was in my teens, i use to dance at a disco just like him, i recorded the video and practice, so i like this song, the group and the next song is even better . . .

rikki444 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - i think this is probably one of the few songs where the cover is far superior to the original. Its almost like they threw away there own lyrics when adding all the electronic garbage and choosing the tempo.

BackToEarth23 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - I totally agree with you, man! The one by Gary Jules and Micheal Andrews is WAY better!

bukowskiski Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - the origanal its allways better cause its the original

GrantmotherTubes Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - That's absolute baloney! Gary Jules is a joke compared to Tears 4 Fears. 30 years ago, these beats/synths were creepy and mind blowing. All Gary Jules did was slow it down about 20 bpm, but there's no way you can claim it to be better because he didn't write the amazing lyrics!

GrantmotherTubes Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Exactly. If it were perhaps changed in some way, I could see Gary Jules version to be somewhat credible as good music...but all he did was copy the lyrics down, and make it more obvious that they are depressing and emotional. What an asshole! T4F 4 ever!

rikki444 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Its all a matter of opinion i guess. To me, the Jules version simply showcases and highlights the exceptional lyrics tears wrote. I think their version is so busy it distracts from the lyrics. sometimes simple is better. but in the 80's, this style would have sold better- so i can see why they chose this approach.

DrWindo Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - rikkis right jules version brought the actual lyrics to light.they are actually brilliant lyrics.i personally prefer the original.i just love TFF

PhenixFireAshs Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - i value your opinion iam not saying the tear for fears didn't sing it good i am just saying that the guy singing it need show a little bit more emotion singing it, i thank song is spost to a little happy and sad like the song says. i didn't attend to make any body angry i personally like gary jules version better.

garyarrow69 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - cant be a better song than this by tears for fears......lova ya...

homero420 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - Por que Orazabal baila tan ridiculo? se quiere auto destruir o lo hace en joda?

guymaddo Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - i'm getting slagged off by saying gary jules version is good,but not as good as the original.why is this?comments please..

Nov 22, 2008 - If you go onto a song video and compare it to another ong, even positively, you will be flamed into oblivion.
