Default Gears of War question.

Can anyone tell me who the singer is and the name of the song that is used in the Gears of War commercial that has been on tv? Any help is appreciated.

I used to know this....


I'm fairly sure that it is R.E.M but I'll figure it out for sure when I get home and let you know.

I just found out that we were wrong. Its actually "Mad World" by Michael Andrews and its on the Donnie Darko soundtrack. The origional was by Tears For Fears.

Your right, that was Gary Jule's cover of the Tears for Fears song Mad World... but that Andrews name sounds familiar.

Edit: Did a little research, it seems Michael Andrews recorded the cover with Gary Jules.

It definitely does sound like R.E.M., though. Good call.
