Should mad world be Xmas number 1?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The Green Lantern wrote:The Tears for Fears version is pretty good me thinks. We used to sing it by the campfire when we were drunk and teenagers. I didn't quite like the cover in Donnie Darkling though. In my opinion it was too slow, the voice was too weak and, well, it didn't have the same conviction as the original. I wasn't a fan of the movie either. It wasn't bad or anything, it just didn't do it for me. What was the question again?
I also prefer the Tears for Fears version.
I still voted yes, though.

Hell NO! the words 'depressing' and 'turgid' spring to mind. :P
