Best Dreams I had

Rate this Entry
I have no idea what this song is called or who sings it. It was played at the end of Donnie Darko and I really liked these lines

I find it kinda sad. The dreams in which I'm dying. Are the best I've ever had

    Yes but the whole line is
    "I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad, the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had."

    and the song is called "Mad World," though I forget who wrote it.

    I just mean by my comment that the singer doesn't just find it sad, but finds it funny and sad.

    Becca, how could you?

    Tears for Fears wrote 'Mad World' and Gary Jules tortured it. In Donnie Darko the song 'Head over Heels', which I think plays during a school scene, is also by Tears for Fears.

    Oh Becs, you're young. I bet you don't even know who Tears for Fears are

    Tears for Fears was great! Everyone Wants to Rule the World is another awesome song of theirs. I love that song too, Dark Muse.

    Donnie Darko is an AMAZING film.

    I always liked Gary Jules' version, but thanks for sharing that Tears for Fears wrote it. I watched it on Youtube and I liked it more and Jules' a little less. And the Tears for Fears version I'd seen before... not sure when. I like the guy's dancing outside the window.

    I want to see Donnie Darko simply cuz Johnny Depp is in it . The song sounds good - but then I wouldn't expect less from a Depp film .

    Andy, I think you mean Donnie Brasco. Depp wasn't in Donnie Darko (but the very delicious Jake Gyllenhaal is )

    I echo the love of Donnie Darko

    Tears for Fears version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXuXikfIYHY

    Oh yes, it's quite 80's.

    Donnie Brasco is a good movie though. LOL nothing at all like Donnie Darko

    Everyone Wants to Rule the World was also covered more recently by a group called Jamison Parker. Same great song, way less 80's, which is always a bonus!
