Concept Album

I was thinking about what songs seemed to tell a story and I then went to investigate whether the rest of the album happened to be of a similar story. I got lucky and the 1st song that I investigated seemed to be attached to an album of a similar nature. The song I thought of was Mad World, specifically the cover done by Gary Jules that was used as the musical theme for the commercial of the video game Gears of War. The song was originally written by Tear for Fears and the message is pretty much the same but in the Tears for Fears version it seems to accentuate a more frantic darkness as compared to the depressed darkness of Gary Jules' version. The album that I believe to be a concept album is The Hurting by Tears for Fears. All of the songs have to do with isolation and society kind of grinding to a halt in a dysfunctional way. On a side note I musically like Gary's rendition for its balance and laid back tempo.
