In the same time, the song eventually became Tears for Fears' first international hit, reaching the Top 40 in several countries in 19, peaking notably at #2 in South Africa. Both 'Mad World' and its B-side, 'Ideas as Opiates', appeared on the band's debut LP The Hurting the following year. It was the band's third single release and first chart hit, reaching #3 on the UK Singles Chart in November 1982.

I find it hard to tell you ‘cos I find it hard to take The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad

And the tears are filling up their glasses,
