[English version below]
Hoy os traigo una versión rockera de un clásico. Smash Into Pieces es un grupo musical sueco de rock alternativo y metal alternativo procedente de Örebro, que surgió en 2008 a manos del guitarrista Benjamin "Banjo" Jennebo Sus demás miembros actuales son Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye (voz), Per Bergquist (guitarra rítmica) y The Apocalypse "APOC" DJ (batería). Anteriormente contaron con Isak Snow (batería) y Viktor Vidlund (bajo).
Smash Into Pieces es un grupo genial para subir los ánimos. La mayoría de su música es original, pero me parece genial que eligieran Mad World para hacer un cover. No es fácil elegir solamente un par de canciones para añadir aquí, con la cantidad de álbumes de gran calidad que han sacado... Me quedaré con Arcadia y Stay para que haya algo de variedad.
El que comparto hoy es solo uno de montones de covers que se han hecho de esta canción, originalmente de Tears For Fears. Uno de los más famosos, que probablemente conoceréis, es el de Gary Jules. Si os gusta la música épica o de cine, podéis escuchar la versión de 2WEI, Tommee Profitt y Fleurie. Por otro lado, si sois de Pentatonix os encantará su versión. Además, también tenemos la canción homónima de Within Temptation, aunque es bastante diferente.
Por cierto, WT últimamente está mostrando un gran compromiso y apoyo a las víctimas de las guerras. No hay más que ver su última canción, A Fool's Parade, con Alex Yarmak.
Si queréis pasar un rato jugando y descubriendo la música de Smash Into Pieces, podéis hacerlo entrando en el mundo de Arcadia.

Today I am bringing a rock version of a classic. Smash Into Pieces is a Swedish alternative rock and alternative metal band from Örebro, which emerged in 2008 at the hands of guitarist Benjamin "Banjo" Jennebo. Its other current members are Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye (vocals), Per Bergquist (rhythm guitar) and The Apocalypse "APOC" DJ (drums). Previously they also counted on Isak Snow (drums) and Viktor Vidlund (bass).
Smash Into Pieces is a great group to cheer up. Most of their music is original, but I think it's great that they chose Mad World to cover. It is not easy to choose just a couple of songs to add here, taking into account the number of high quality albums they have released... I'll pick Arcadia and Stay so there's some variety.
The one I am sharing today is just one of many covers that have been made of this song, originally by Tears For Fears. One of the most famous, which you probably know, is that of Gary Jules. If you like epic or cinematic music, you can listen to the version by 2WEI, Tommee Profitt and Fleurie. Besides, if you fancy Pentatonix you will love their version. Furthermore, we also have the Within Temptation namesake song, although it is quite different.
By the way, lately WT is showing great commitment and support to the victims of wars. Just take a look at their latest song, A Fool's Parade, with Alex Yarmak.
If you want to spend some time playing and discovering some Smash Into Pieces music, you can do so by entering Arcadia world.

Lyrics/Letra:
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher, tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world (x2)
It's a mad world, mad world (x2)
