• Comments: This is my entry in the Anime North 2007 AMV Competition.
  
  Basically, I was one day I was driving home from work when this song was played on the radio, and by chance I was in the "bad" part of town, and this song made me think... "hmmm... this song really suits this situation".
  
  Upon going home I starting looking through my collection, oddly enough Earth Girl Arjuna jumped out quickly, (it was odd because it was the same source I used for last years Anime North Competition).
  
  So with video and audio sources selected, I quickly mapped out the video on paper and was off editing away.
  
  The idea for this video was to focus on the harm that people are doing to the world, and how that without change, we are doomed. So naturally Arjuna is a perfect choice.

  Lyrics:
  
  All around me are familiar faces
  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 kind of funny
  I find it kind of 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
  And I 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 kind of funny
  I find it kind of 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
  Enlarging your world
  Mad World.
