  • Giovanni Ribisi<3

  • haha this came on at my work when were queued out the door n the boss started singing along dead sarcastically! brilliant! ha

  • this need to be made into a movie...

  • @aime9118 IT WAS; it's called "Uknown" and is actually really good.

  • this music and video is amazing .... i'm living this now in my life ... ohh crystal ball save me please...

  • wow I almost cried

  • keane, cold play and one republic is enough for a long drive. You guys rock

  • WHATS THIS VIDEO ABOUT?????

  • @Action23Man a man has his entire life destroyed as everyone he knows and loves find they no longer know him, and that a man with a slightly similar appearance has taken his place. Kind of like the Twilight Zone episode "Shatterday".

  • @Action23Man

    Tim was on tour with the band, and they realised they didn't really talk anymore. They were too caught up with work. Tim tried to write, but he realised that he didn't feel anything any more. That's what this song is about. When we forget about friends and family in order to follow careers etc.

    Paraphrased form 'Keaneshaped' the website.

  • Why is it that all I can think every time I watch this vid is how skinny Tom's legs look in those jeans? There's something wrong with me; I swear!

  • brilliant story..

  • This video is so painful to watch, poor guy.

    Great song though. Thank you Pandora for introducing me to Keane!

  • Not many people are still gorgeous while they're going ape shit, I'll tell you that much.

  • love it

  • great song!!!

  • Stupid Vevo. I was forced to watch this vid as vevo cuts their's off. =P

  • I luv them~

  • a cristal ball is a desease  :(

  • What is the video trying to teach?? XD

  • @MrAlexDallas SHUTTER ISLAND

  • I wonder if thats ever happened? :(

  • strange video and kind of upsetting :(

  • Such a strange video.

  • This music is too

  • Oh crap!! i hope its just a nightmare.

  • Tom, Tim, Richard at 3:10 =P

  • Isn't he the medic that dies in Saving Private Ryan? In the assault on the communications outpost he gets shot in the spine?

  • @camofrog44 yup that's the guy

  • really nice vid reminds me of that movie with neeson

  • ... Poor guy :/

  • que buen tema

  • amazing :)

  • someone knows the name of the film in this video???? :D

  • @niko96mtk It's not a film, it's just a music video.

  • I don't get it.

  • it is Giovanni Ribisi, Great actor!!!:)

  • hey it's the guy from Avatar!

  • is this a film?

  • a woman robbed his car this time not some thugs

  • The movie Unknown totally got their idea from here! And that's the guy from Saving Private Ryan.

  • @buttcheese96 yep an he appeared in the recent movie of avatar (the blue guys)

  • The poor guy who lost his job, wife etc. isnt he Phoebe's brother, from Friends? I think he looks alot like him...

  • The vocalist is so damn good.

  • @blacksailsinsunet  I have seen the vocalist live (Tom Chaplin) and no one on this earth can out sing him he is loud as well as can hit any note that Tim (the keyboard player and songwriter extraordinare) gives him. Keane care about there performances and give it 100%. Tom sung with Queen at the princes trust and it was brilliant. But the music press of the UK don't like him and he never gets the praise that he should.

  • @hoodsxl I agree with you, but why do you say the music press of the UK doesn't like him? :O

  • @keaneing becos they are always slagging him off when he doesn't deserve it!

  • the lesson: Work is a bad thing. hahahhahahah

  • @canaldupedro hahahahahaa out of all posts yours made me laugh nice!

  • DRUGS!

  • Am I the only one that thinks these lyrics are brilliant

  • @curtsher11 no

  • @curtsher11 NO. I think so too. Infact I think all Keane Lyrics are brilliant 

  • Tom's movies at the start crack em up everytime I watch this one...LOVE KEANE!

  • @curtsher11 count me in too!

  • @curtsher11 just you and 648065 others ^^

  • ouch!

  • Hated it. Depressing song, depressing video, and everything that's wrong with the world, RIGHT THERE. :(

  • @skingaz well u live in a fantasy world if u don't think life at times can be depressing

  • @DazedSky no, you're right......absolutely is life depressing. My contention is that it's depressing enough without the arts (music in this case) making life seem unbearable and not worth living.

  • The dislike bar is like Justin Biebers dick,you cant see it but apparently its there.

  • Love all Keane songs :D :D

  • Waiting for the new album...

  • @Bennde Does a new album come in the future??

  • @Roscovitsch Early 2012 i think

  • @Roscovitsch Hopefully in 2012...

  • Is this guy Frank Buffay from Friends???!

  • @manunitedforlife16 yes its also Ralph from My Name Is Earl

  • truly amazing underrated band fab vocals and english savvy

  • Amoooo a keaneeeeeeeeeee

    es mi banda favorita aww ♥,♥

  • wow DR HOUSE!! <3

  • Amazing song. One of my favorites of all time.

  • this is actually a really good idea for a movie lol

  • I love this song!

  • I don't know if someone thinks that the toy that has the boy is Starscreen XD

  • Once you hear it as "Chris De Burgh" you cannot unhear it.

  • i love keane ,one of the few truly original bands around

  • am i the only one who is wondering what happens to the guy? i LOVE the song ,but what happens tO tHE GUY ? ! ? !

  • Is it my imagination or does Tom look to have really skinny legs in this vid? I think he might have skinny jeans on!

  • gosh it's so unbelievable that ONE person can take everything from you..your family, job... everything what is important to you. I would like to see faces of his wife and son, and this guy,when they'll see that he didn't give up, and he's completely fine and happy. That all bad things were just the beggining of his new, wonderful life with a new job and family.And that 'crystal ball saved him and told that life is beautiful'.

  • @woahhhify It could sound incredible, but histories like the video happen sometimes.It happened to me, something similar, and so sudenly... They tried to made me feel crazy... women can be cruel and they don't matter about the son's feelings.

  • bad luck!!! lol

  • I think this is my favorite Keane song of all time.

  • 2:26 totaaaaaal !!!!

  • Poor guy..

  • I would definitely kill myself if i had a day like this, wife and kid abandoned me, lost my job, and my car.... that is not tolerable... lol

  • No, I think ObamaIsAFailure had the meaning of the song right--the man clearly wants a backup goaltender.

  • meaning of the song is very good indeed, until the unthinkable in my sleep hha

  • This is a very interesting music video to an excellent song. Keane forever! <3

  • Lol, I've seen that man before... He's Giovanni Ribisi. He plays Ralph in My Name Is Earl. Great song, btw

  • @fabiopereirascp01 Was he in Friends or Desperate Housewives as well?

    

  • @lemsip I'm sure he had a role on Friends and The X-Files. I'm also sure he was on Avatar, but I don't know if he was on Desperate Housewifes. Sorry.

  • @fabiopereirascp01 He might have played Phoebe's younger brother.

  • I'm right, he did. Found out on his Wiki page.

  • My two top favorite bands, mcfly and keane <3

  • i´ve fear to this happen to me one of theese days

  • this video deserves more views

  • The memory of happiness and not happiness, the memory the pain is still pain.

    i love keane <3

  • I think the meaning of the Video Clip is: Even If your happy, good work, have a son and wife. Then suddenly you can lose everything you builded your while life in a fraction of a second. As you can see in the video-clip. In the begin it's all very happy in a few minutes later he lost everything. I think they wanted too show that. Anyways lovet this song!

  • Love this song! =D

  • Who is the man I see Where I'm supposed to be? I lost my heart, I buried it too deep Under the iron sea Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball Save us all, tell me life is beautiful Mirror, mirror on the wall Oh, crystal ball, hear my song I'm fading out, EVERYTHING I KNOW IS WRONG So put me where I belong Love this song the best parts are there and look like the video :) Add Maiko Laxalte Laxalte Pereira facebook

  • amooooo esta bandaa esta cancion es la mejorrrrrrrr la adorooo lokoooo :D

  • esta cancion esta bien padre es mi favrita

  • the artist has the meaning they're trying to illustrate in the song, and we all have our own personal interpretations. Just listen to the words and you'll know what it's about.

  • 3:22 ... House? °-°

  • @Punugo roadhouse

  • @Punugo lol dude its House :)

  • make whatever interpretation of the video you like, however the words tell the story

  • so I dont understand many people have different thinking about interpretation of this video.If he is traped why is the other guy there? with his family or in his office...and if he got lost,when did he?

  • Giovani ribisi rules!!

  • I think Tom's wearing skinny jeans here - his legs look awefully thin compared to when he's in Everybody's Changing xxx

  • i love this song. very underrated
