The Christmas chart topping track by Gary Jules and Michael Andrews is
looking likely to receive a US release following its success over here. It was public pressure and radio play that led to the mellow cover of Tears For Fears 1983 hit 'Mad World', the title track from cult movie 'Donnie Darko', to get released over here. Given the huge success here, and with radio play on certain independent radio stations in LA, New York, San Diego and Baltimore, the track is likely to get a US release.
Californian Jules - still a little overawed by his sudden mainstream success - is also in talks with US-based labels about a re-release of his independently released album 'Trading Snakeoil For Wolftickets'.
