Hey everyone hope ur having a lovely evening, im absolutely stopped in my tracks trying to figure out the title to this REM song (im pretty sure its REM) its a sad song(not Everybody Hurts) it goes something like "Im feelin kinda funny, im feeling kind of sad... (something something) is the best i ever had"

does anyone know the title so i can dl it? I'm aching to hear it again, thanx in advance!

    ...Those dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had...???

    Can't remember but I'm pretty sure it wasn't REM :(.
    Sorry :).
    One day the world will be ready for you
    and wonder how they didn't see it...E

    i think it's "mad world" by gary jules. it was on the donnie darko soundtrack.


    All around me are familiar faces
    Worn out places
    Worn out faces
    Bright and early for the daily races
    Going no where
    Going no where
    Their tears are filling up their glasses
    No expression
    No expression
    Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
    No tomorrow
    No tomorrow
    And I find it kind of funny
    I find it kind of sad
    The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
    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
    Mad world
    Children waiting for the day they feel good
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday
    And I feel the way that every child should
    Sit and listen
    Sit and listen
    Went to school and I was very nervous
    No one knew me
    No one knew me
    Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
    Look right through me
    Look right through me
    And I find it kind of funny
    I find it kind of sad
    The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
    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
    Mad world
    Enlarging your world
    Mad world

    Yeah its funny so many people are unaware of the original.
    The Gary Jules version became popular thanks to Donnie Darko. Tears For Fears' version is a little more up tempo and a full band version, not just the piano.
    Both are excellent.
