TRENDING NOW: It’s a Mad World for a new generation

Do you have anything in particular on your pandemic playlist?

The Tears for Fears song Mad World has been a staple on many playlists for decades and it’s even more relevant now, both for the time we’re in and because of the new version that’s making the rounds.

The band’s Curt Smith performs the song with his young daughter, Diva, and the video was posted on the YouTube channel of fashion designer and philanthropist Tory Burch.

“It’s hard to imagine a song that seems more relevant right now,” she wrote. “I am so happy to share a new beautiful version by my dear friend Curt Smith of Tears For Fears Youtube with his daughter Diva recorded for us from their quarantine life in LA.”
