Mad Mad World studio album by Canadian rock singer Tom Cochrane , originally released in 1991 in Canada and in the United States on February 17, 1992. The first single from the album, "Life Is a Highway ", became a hit in late 1991, reaching number one in Canada and number six on the Billboard Hot 100[2]
The album earned Cochrane four Juno Awards including Album of the Year , Single of the Year , Male Vocalist of the Year , and Songwriter of the Year . In addition, Cochrane won two SOCAN Awards and an ASCAP Award . Mad Mad World achieved a Diamond sales award in Canada for selling more than 1 million copies in Cochrane's native Canada.[3] Gold by the RIAA for album sales of more than 500,000 copies in the United States.[4]
The album also included the hits "No Regrets" (No. 3 RPM Charts), "Sinking Like a Sunset" (No. 2 RPM Charts), "Washed Away" (No. 7 RPM Charts), "Bigger Man" and the title track "Mad Mad World". The album was produced by Joe Hardy and was recorded in Memphis, Tennessee and at three different Ontario studios: Metalworks Studios in Mississauga , Hungry Hollow Studio in Georgetown and at Cochrane's cabin in Oakville .
Upon the album's initial releases in the US and Canada, the album featured two different album covers. The original album cover (designed by Ralph Alfonso) was on the initial Canadian release in 1991, while the alternate album cover was on the US release for the album in 1992. The alternate cover is now the main album cover for the album.
On October 28, 2016, Cochrane released an expanded 25th-anniversary edition of the album. Included on the expanded album is "Love Is a Highway", the original demo version of the album's first single, and a second disc featuring a concert recorded on May 14, 1992, on the Mad Mad World Tour in Chicago, Illinois.
