Gary Jules performs his songs Mad World and Falling Awake for TEDxAsheville. These songs were featured on Donnie Darko and Grey's Anatomy.

Gary Jules, is an American singer-songwriter, best known for his cover version of the Tears for Fears song “Mad World”, which he recorded with friend Michael Andrews for the film Donnie Darko. It became the UK Christmas Number One single of 2003. Since then, Jules’ version has been used on many American TV shows such as CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Jericho, The O.C., Smallville and House, as well as in a commercial for the video game Gears of War.

Other fun successes include “Falling awake” which charted on billboard just from having been played on a popular grey’s anatomy episode.  The Obama campaign used “The old days are gone” in 2008.  “Something else” was on scrubs, “broke window” in Zach Braff’s film “Wish I was here” in 2014, and on soundtrack with Coldplay, James Taylor, Paul Simon.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
