"The World Seems Difficult" is a single by Australian band Mental As Anything, released in 1989. It was released as the first single from the album Cyclone Raymond. The song charted at number 19 on the ARIA Charts and it stayed on the charts for 9 weeks.[1]
Greedy Smith, who wrote the song, said it "was a bit different for us - nobody knew who it was, basically." He added, "You've got to do these things occasionally because you always run a risk of copying yourself."[2]
Lynden Barber of the Sydney Morning Herald said about the song, "I would have picked on a blindfold test as A-Ha."[3]
The song appears over the opening credits of the film The Big Steal (1990).
