  • Very nice.... Ohhhhhhh I talked over you. Sorry

  • Comment removed

  • Beautiful cover!

  • Great song, but what the hell at the end?

  • @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

  • better than the original, tom's voice is PURE MAGIC!!

  • 0:50 he needs some pants T_T

  • I have always thought that Tom sings like Bono :) I love this cover :)

  • 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.

  • @elvengarda the xylaphone or whatever it is makes it what it is I think.. a lot more of a softer mellow tone

  • @mrdarrencottam I usually listen metal, but I like this soft mellow tone you're talking about :P

  • Better than the original!!

  • better than the original!!!!!!

  • omg i loooooooooooooooovvvvvvveeeeee­eeee this song its been my favorte for 3 years (: so sad but touching.

  • beautiful cover but not even close to the amazing original one!

  • Just Going To Go And Cry My Eyes Out Such A Sweet Song

  • I'm really undecided as if this could be better than the original, good effort

  • i get goosebumps everytime from 1:18 to the end...

  • Comment removed

  • toms beautifully haunting voice gets me everytime....simply stunning!!!

  • <3 love it. the best cover evr

  • Very Beautiful :)

  • If this song makes you sad or upset or even you cant relate to it or if it makes you happy thumbs up.

  • nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooo...U2 .YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSS

  • love Keane but i didnt know they made a cover of this awesome song! its a really nice cover! hate the emo pics though...

  • Keane, you're in my heart forever :') <3

  • im from mexco, i dont speak english but this is the best song that i have heard in my life.

  • couldnt get the climax quite right

  • best cover ever, no joke

  • 3:11 what a moron!!!

  • one of the best covers ever, one of the most beautiful songs to cover ever.

  • I think Tom's voice makes it good, but I don't really like the cover as a whole. I prefer the original

  • cant stop listening to thiss

  • @steverfrapwell me too!

  • Wow !!

    So meaningfull & Moving

    Beautiful cover ... million times better than the original :')

  • its okay

  • I prefer the u2 because it's a lot more touching and powerful than this version.

    Good cover though :)

  • 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.. :)

  • the u2 version is way more powerful to me

  • ok those are some sad images....and by sad i mean pathetic...

  • My favourite song

  • U2 = legendary

  • 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 :)

  • @cathaldinho

    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...........

  • that does make more sense!

    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 :)

  • oh my i think you are so very confused

  • people would say anything for a response and you have just proved it ... thank you

  • @27Dannn

    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.

  • @27Dannn U2 certainly don't suck, please don't be a douchebag <3

  • Reminds me of my shadow wolf

  • I absolutely love this song... By both artists (U2 and Keane) but oh my god this is beautiful!! Love it.. (:

  • i hate all covers of this song except u2's because nobody can compete with them but i have to say that this is a very good cover:)

  • ugh...i thought U2 was the original...but i could be wrong

    but i agree can't really compete with U2

    i really love this cover though :D

  • U2 is the Best...no one can compete with them

  • sabes que prefiero no mirar el video solo oir xD

  • the shizz at the end just completely spoiled the mood though =(

  • such a beautiful song, it almost made me cry......fuck that, it DID make me cry, best cover of this song I've ever heard

  • lovely cover best cover i think so far i love Keane!

  • This was my Grandads funeral song i cry my eyes out every time i listen to it xx

  • Si con U2 era re buenaa con keanee ess lo maximo

  • WELL DONE !

    (:

  • Yeah....i thought Coldplay sang this song. turns out to be Keane

  • JaneTyl, you're still wrong. This is actually a U2 song. Keane's cover of it is one of the best, though.

  • keane used to be called Coldplay

  • shoosh dude lol

  • ha ha ha, no.

  • i loved this song!

  • i like this version.

    But originals are always the best.

    It is beautiful though

  • 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 will be playing this at my dad's memorial.

  • 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

  • well i like U2's music, somtimes it is like coldplay but....i think that keane's version is a little bit better

  • music...good

    video ...bad

  • esta musica nao e sua e do u2 .rsrsrsr

    cristiano brasil.

  • Better and U2's version, imo

  • U2's is good but this takes it to the next level

  • More touching then the original

  • I guess its good but U2's better in my opinion....

  • yeah, i think it's better than U2

  • the best version ever

  • i carn't tell whos versins better

    i meen am a big fan of u2 but this song kicks ass

  • This has so much more meaning than U2's version

  • This song sounds like a lullaby that would be perfect to help with going to sleep.

  • This is better than U2's in my opinion..

  • this song reminds me of my ex i am crying now :(

  • i love this very much :)

  • Nice Song!!

    i love keane!! =]

    -xxx-

  • what a beautiful song.

  • like this song but it reminds me of ma ex :( xx

  • wlsv1982,,, hahaha harsh but fucking funny :)

  • this is one of my favourite ever songs and i love keane's version, maybe more than the original

  • wlsv1982...jesus mate a bit harsh but bang on..you made me laugh my head off!!

  • tom first tryed this i think just for a couple of seconds on the strangers dvd...check it out

  • i've been in love with a girl for 4 years. this is her favourite song. i listen to it because it reminds me of her. it depresses me ridiculously...

  • .......... 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 love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • fabulous !!!!! love it

  • guero.........no puedo mas........sin ti.

  • a side from john mayer's cover of free falling, this just might be the greatest cover ever.

  • Perfect, Tom made an amazing cover, his voice is fantastic, he can sing all kind of songs, he's brilliant, I love U2 and this cover is just wonderful

  • I am not even joking here or being OTT : I honestly rate this as one of the best covers of all time.

  • Diese Aufnahme ist einfach zum verlieben. amazing!

    Ich warte mal darauf: " Dieses Video ist in deinem Land nicht verfügbar."

  • my favourite cover, eveeeeeerrrr!

  • 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

  • videos a bit to emo for me

  • he is a legend

  • AHAHAHAHHA!!! ILL GIVE YOU MY HEART !!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA part 0:21 lolololols!

  • whos the fag in the video

  • Just wonderful!

  • Oh my... love this cover...................

  • un clasico esta cancion. excelente cover de keane lo maxio esta banda

  • I LOOOOVE U2 !! <3

    This song is just perfect :) (L)

  • This is beautiful.

  • As much as I love the original, this version lets you hear how beautiful it really is.

  • LOVE THIS SONGGGGG

  • Cant ever beat an origional, but for a cover this is good.

  • I prefer this version to the U2 original.

    I think it's because I have grown up listening to Keane though.

  • great video! i love this song!!! =]

  • i like both keane and u2 versions

  • Magnifique

  • LOVE THIS SONGGGGG

  • I really like this. It is very relaxing. I love the original tho.

  • LUV THIS SONG!!!!! LUV KEANE!!!

  • thx, fav music

  • I LOVE THIS SONG! <3

  • great!!! ... U2 better... by the way

  • arrangiamento bellissimo fa invidia all'originale

  • Good cover of a great song. But give Keane a break. I know they don't believe they did this song better. They just love it cause it's a great song.

  • Love this cover. Unlike other bands who try to cover songs Keane did very good on this one! (y)

  • i love the pics as much as the song

  • 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.

  • Tom Chaplin has a fabulous voice, and it perfectly suits this song.Personally, i think it is even better than the original.

  • Tom Chaplin has a fabulous

  • la canción es increible pero el video es horrible, lo siento, medio emo, medio romanticón... feísimo
