What is the meaning of the song Mad World by Tears for Fears, somebody told me it was about suicide and then someone told me it was about the world changing? I need to know for a paper I am writing for school. Thanks
What is the meaning of the song Mad World by Tears for Fears?
The best interpretations of a song come from who actually wrote it. The two that make up the band, Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, have been quoted to speak of these meanings of the song:
%26quot;Lyrically the song is pretty loose. It throws together a lot of different images to paint a picture without saying anything specific about the world.%26quot;
鈥擱oland Orzabal
%26quot;It's very much a voyeur's song. It's looking out at a mad world from the eyes of a teenager.%26quot;
鈥擟urt Smith
Hope this is the answer you were looking for!
Best wishes on your paper! ;)
