Having been both a huge Tears for Fears fan and a ridiculously huge Duncan Sheik fan, this song is a bizarre personification of my musical tastes.  And, like all of Sheik's covers, it almost mystically retains every bit of the spirit of the original (reminiscent of Songbird, in particular) while being something utterly unique.

Duncan Sheik is a Grammy Award and two-time Tony Award winning singer-songwriter and composer. As a solo artist, Duncan's ubiquitous hit "Barely Breathing" spent 55 weeks on the Billboard's Hot 100 Chart and propelled the sales of his Atlantic Records debut to 750,000 copies. As a composer, Sheik again found success with his musical, Spring Awakening, which earned 8 Tony Awards, including "Best Musical" and garnered accolades and A+ reviews. Spring Awakening proved influential on Broadway and the New York Times predicted "Broadway, with its often puerile sophistication and its sterile romanticism, may never be the same". Sheik is currently working on stage productions of Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho. Sheik has released two new tracks, “Photograph” and “Circling” from from his forthcoming album, Legerdemain, scheduled for a spring 2015 release.
