Originally recorded in late 2000 by score writer Michael Andrews and vocalist Gary Jules for the film Donnie Darko, released early 2001 (Sundance). The soundtrack album however wasn't released before April 2002.
Tears for Fears finds this version truer the lyrics than their own version, since the recording is very dark which is the emotion of the lyric. - Rating
