 Mad World  is a song by the British band Tears for Fears, written by Roland Orzabal and sung by bassist Curt Smith.ad World was originally written on acoustic guitar when Orzabal was 19, it was a deliberate attempt to write something in the vein of Duran Duran's  Girls on Film . After a few false starts with Orzabal on vocals, Smith took over and suddenly it sounded fabulous.
The year the song was released, Carlisle married Morgan Mason, who appears with Belinda in the video for Mad About You. The guitar solo on the song was performed by Andy Taylor (of Duran Duran), who also appears in the video. Paula Jean Brown (who took Jane Wiedlin's spot in the band just before it broke up) co-wrote the song with Jim Whelan, and Wiedlin and Charlotte Caffey sang back-up vocals. Mad About You was one of a few songs being considered for the fourth (unrecorded) Go-Go's album.
