DoubleD Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aye, they sing the original. Gary Jules sings the cover. A cut up version of the cover was also used for the Gears of War commercial. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccWrbGEFgI8 It's from the movie Donnie Darko, which you should really check out if you haven't. Ranked #105 in IMDB's 250. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0246578/ It's one of the best song placements in a move that I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfgiantsflgators Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Donnie Darko is a great movie. Can't believe the only song I've gotten right is a Tears for Fears song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstroEric Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 While they are trying to guess that one, I have one that someone may or may not know. Day after day, day after day, We stuck nor breath nor motion As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean Water, water everywhere and All the boards did shrink Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink. Any English major would be remiss not to recognize Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner." But did somebody sing a version of it?

ronmexico Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Someone told me theres a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair. Took my chances on a big jet plane, Never let them tell you that theyre all the same. The sea was red and the sky was grey, Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today. Try this one on for size, for those who date themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
