Pity they always cut the "I never saw the light. I waited up all night, but I never saw the light." lines in live performances. It's one of my favourite lines from the song.
hahaha I watched the Keane Mini LA documentary and Tom says one of richards drums collapsed or something and I saw it! hahaha around 2:352:36 you can see it go down and then they pan back to it tilted@ 2:40
Their style has really changed alot since their earlier albums. Used to be more of a Coldplay-type piano-rock band, now they have more of a guitar pop feel.
Mind you, I'm not complaining. I don't like bands that write the same song over and over again.
I love Keane when they play live. It's almost the same as on the CDs and in most cases even better :).
The shorter version they played here is the radio etition ;)
It's shorter in the "do you wanna be.." part and some other music parts. If you search for: 'keane spiralling radio edit' on youtube you'll notice that it's shorter ;)
They are very famous in The Netherlands (Holland) too btw :)
i absolutely love keane...what makes them so great is that there're not too commercial and overexposed- the lead singer reminds me of someone, but i can't put my finger on it...
Nice to see that some Americans like Keane as in the UK most people love them but the press say Keane are only popular here!!! Keane's new album is great too check it out!!!
i almost baught this album, and i never liked keane that much! nice album! tho now that i heard the demo versions, i think i like them better! tim chaplin voice is lower and the way he sings the song is great!
They are, and they should be, but the recording industry is too centered towards rap, hip-hop, and R&B at the moment. So, wonderful artists such as Keane get screwed over in the end.
They've gotten a lot better live. I heard them live a couple years ago and they didn't sound all that good but they've come a long way. They sound great now.
You really can tell that Tom is in a better place in his life now, you can hear it in his singing. Keane is definitely coming into their own place in musical history, finally. Can't wait to see them live again!
Spiralling is SUPER! I missed this on Ellen so thank you so much for posting this here! I can't wait to see this song performed live, it's my favorite song of theirs! <3
thanks for tell me this, the true is that I'm from colombia so I haven't to many chances to see them live, but it's good know that he still move and dance like a crazy hehehehe
I don't know if you've seen them live at this tour, but I can tell you - he's just the same Tim as he's always been! I saw them in Copenhagen an he was jumping around, making crazy stuff as he's alway been doing. (:
I agree that he seemed rather nervous, and his voice more edgy. They probably had time constraints to work with. They rushed the "do you wanna be.." segment, which is the best part imho.
I must say though that I love how he says "we spiralling..'. Didn't think he could sound more English, but there ya go! I almost wish he would do it more often. :D
the performance just seems more rigid and jumpy than usual. plus tom is singing more staccato and is cutting off his syllables. i think the problem is they're trying to speed the song up or something. oh well, keane is still great, and i love them for trying new things.
I love Keane, but I must say this video's totally disturbing. I don't know what's up to Tom but he seems extremely nervous for some reason, he keeps on jumping uncontrollably and his voice doesn't sound still as well. Also, the song's been entirely changed, a lotta different from the recorded version.
maybe you're right. I also felt that when I saw them live last november. but I think it's because it's different from what we are used to from them. but I felt that you said more with "Better than this". It seemed like Mika.
This performance made me want to buy their CD. I'm quickly falling for this song, I love it. I've heard of Keane before.. maybe 1 or 2 years ago but I've totally renewed my interest in them.
