@AMY1213141 This was reorded for BBC Live lounge, a music program. The Host of thee show accidentally spoke over the recording before it was finished lol
this version is not particulary better, but it's more touching then the original. The sweet piano tunes give a whole new look on the song. Altough the version of U2 is also beautiful, I personally prefer this one, because it's more ballad-like.
this is exceptionally more touching than the U2 version, I first heard it on an album I got sent, but I haven't listened to it for years now.. Beautiful.. :)
thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard.Keane are good but have being in the business a few years U2 are in their third century going 4 They are on stadium tours around the world . Plus you said its a cover so its U2's song their singing. On of the most famous songs you would be bad not to recognize it! I'm not trying to give out or start a fight i know its your opinion but i think you should look to the facts rather than your own personal opinion before spreading this idea around :)
i'm pretty sure you meant 3rd DECADE not century, otherwise U2 would be about 450 years old each!!
and also, i have to say i like this version better, Bono's voice just doesn't cut it for me, not enough emotion or soul.........but then again i did hear this version first...........
you have to think of it that bono is talking about religion not love. thats why there isnt enough emotion its because you are thinking of it in a different light :)
I partly agree with this. I only partly agree because Yes. Keane is an awesome band and this cover of the song is pretty awesome but i have to agree, most U2 songs to me are pretty good aswell.
i don't know, i find this a lot better than the U2 version, i guess coz the music is softer in this one, there barely is music on it!, you can feel the emotion in the voice without the music!
I'm really sorry for your loss. I lost my Father last year. I bet he'll be looking down on you enjoyng this beautiful song with you all. A fitting tribute x
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ur gay....u need to bang her or move on....4 years???.....Jesus, i want to slit my wrists...This song is about being in a relationship thats not good for you (or god depending on who you ask.) Pick song thats about pining for the same girl for 4 FUCKING YEARS and write some pathetic dribble in a comment there.
.......... and you see why alex got a thumbs up and you never??? seriously so what if he's upset about missing his ex doesn't mean you need to be a fag about it.
Everyone has their own opinions on what a song means. It reminds him of his ex girlfriend it reminds you of a bad relastionship and for me it's just a epic song you see how it works?
I'm a long time U2 fan and I have to say that the cover isn't top notch, right, but good anyway. His voice is full of feeling while singing, you can notice it ;-)
The end of the video is horrible. It should have been cut :-S
They do it pretty good but not nearly as good as the orginal. U2's versio is more haunting with a mroe tiemless feel to it. Edge's long feedback on guitar can't be replaced with piano. Still this is nice. Keane was awesome when they opened for U2.
thought it was Bono Vox :D sound soo great I expect its original :D but it has amazing voice performance - anyway great song, and big couple of emotions
Very nice.... Ohhhhhhh I talked over you. Sorry
