Kiwi! - "Mad World" version

submitted by kronosposeidon

1 decade 6 years 10 months ago

This is the exact same version of this video: http://www.videosift.com/video/Kiwi EXCEPT the music has been changed to Gary Jules's version of "Mad World". Still just as moving, if not more so. I tried sifting this when I was new here, but it died because I didn't know about requeuing. Hopefully I won't need to requeue it this time.

This deserves a straight sift without requeues.

D'oh! It isn't. My mistake. Don't know how that happened, but I fixed it.

wow, as much as I think that "Mad World" is a bit overused these days for sad movie scenes, I can understand the power of the song. compared with the original version of the video this version is not that much sadder, but the music seems to drown out some of the initial joy of discovering what is happening. basically, you hear the first few piano notes of that song and you know something is not gonna end happily; so the song does have strong emotive qualities which is a powerful thing for any form of art to be able to do.

just wish it wasn't used quite so often because it eventually detracts from the power and beauty of the song IMHO
