Crystal Ball

[kaiba2630]

Música Perfeita.

[Gorillaz616]

well... this is depressing

[aisik12]

its a great song but. . . i cant understand whats the meaning of the video :O

[achatzb]

a guy with a normal life comes home one day to learn that another guy has taken over his wife, son, job and life.

toward the end there is a picture of him, his wife and boy, where instead of him, the other guy is on (the pic was seen before)

[Marjonas12]

great song!!!!

[kz101rockers]

Wow grear song and video.

[latter67]

if you wrote properly, i would be able to answer.

[elmagico321mark]

Great Song!

[evindinfam]

cette chanson parle de moi

[revilolee]

Great song and vid!

[nikamota]

There are many discussions of what this song and video are about.

Many many discussions,observation's and interpretations.

There is ONLY ONE thing very clear in all these deliberations.

Its a bloody good song.

I love it.

[hartnell]

I love it too. What a greatr band :)

[wendeath]

this video is so crazy.....

[Babstbabe]

This is 7 in my Keane 20 luv it when Tom sings the last bit on his back luv u all Tim, Richy, Tom, Jesse XXXX.

[allhull]

what it all about? is that his family?

[maritta2504]

I think this video is sooo sad.....

After a long time, I decidet to watch it again, but I couldn't finish with that, because I feel so sorry for him...

I don't want that this would happen to me....

[darkskull9901]

wtf are you on about man?

[titaniumsweetie1]

Had no idea that Giovanni's sis Marissa was married to Beck and they are all scientologists? OMG! Is everyone going to join this cult?

[titaniumsweetie1]

Wow, such a cool video. Now I have to see this movie asap! I <3 Giovanni Ribisi - he totally reminds me of my ex.

[Ofifcialinsanity]

its not a movie :P its just a music video, i looked it up and couldnt find a movie its apparently just a music video for keane :(. when i saw this music vid i wanted to see the film turns out there aint 1 :P

[Schwarze1989]

Amazing song, my favourite from this album... could listen to it for hours...

[myousik]

Haha, I didn't get the video but I love Giovanni Ribisi! A music video with Giovanni Ribisi! How cool is that?!

[NichtNacht]

that would kinda suck... i really love the song though :)

[Woleni]

this could also be the life he's imagined and that he's trying to live out but eventually realizes it's just a facade, "oh crystal ball, crystall ball.... tell me life is beautiful"

[Woleni]

This vid either is describing a man who has an identity problem and wants to be someone he's not, or it could be actually a man who's lost his identity to someone else and now he has nothing, very sad

[davefs25]

This video is very intense.

Not sure if i get the message...

[RNC200707]

Great song but the video depresses me

Imagine losing your identity and having no-one to go to and nowhere to go :(

[lsouzabr]

this may happen

... happened to me

[Yojimbo1AK]

then what happens?

[suffocatingrandomnes]

i think i get it .. it's a guy's crazy delusion tha tshe somebody he's not and he obviously forgot about his real self...duhh...right??? that is wat the vids about right?

[jmlkids]

ITS THE MEDIC FROM SAVING PRIVATE RYAN!!!

Giovanni Ribisi!

[kjxcbv9812]

Holy shit it is!!!

[kjxcbv9812]

poor Wade :(

[alexsandromouralenci]

Muito louco!!!Cara é massa esse video muito emocionante!!Keane é Show!!

[ammygoesUSA]

in my opinion, too the best keane song :-)

looove them and especially this song!

[genepezzulo]

love this video

[thelie]

wow, this video is disturbing, I mean at the end the guy lost everything!! What happened? Great song and the video is sad, strange, depressing but awesome as well.

[Fanatic4500]

I have the song and I love it, and the music videos good, but extremely depressing...

[sierra0318]

The best Keane song in my oppinion it is very addictive and I love the lyrics

[icantdance2003]

Are you a Keane fan?

[sierra0318]

Yes I do like Keane alot but Coldplay is my favorite band ^.^

[tonycromagnoni]

coldplay should learn from keane. coldplay has a way to depress you with the same chords that keane makes you happy.

[Yojimbo1AK]

this just depressed me

[OriginalEvilChicken]

Giovanni Ribisi is just awesome in this vid

[JuiCeBoX19]

Vid+Song... weird...

i heard the this song first time at a friend without clip, thought like "hey, somekind of happy song or sth."

Now with that clip, dude, just strange feelings.

[musicfan1996]

Is this the real music video to the song? It seems to be about my life exactly. It's scary how the whole world will turn on you all at once sometimes.

[N1ce92]

I think it's the best song with a very good vid...!!!

[iBILB]

hey sumone repost the vid wit jus d words

[iBILB]

no dude the 2 guys are the same person like wtf r they sure it aint supposed to be cratal meth like holy fricken frick dude\

[gracechang01]

It's terrible.But it do happen in our life

sometimes..

[12UCOMPLETEME12]

OMG that is soooo sad... But i love this song... BUT THE MUSIC VIDEO IS SOOO SAD!!!

[kamilciajaworska]

piosenka świetna, teledysk spoko

[crazidan96]

i love this video. it's so deep

[bageurra1]

While watching it, it felt like a trailor for a movie, or even a complete scene. I googled it to see if it was, but I didn't get anything... It's really awesome though.

[Jonah005]

This is now about his wife cheating. It's much worse. It's about losing identity and not knowing any longer whether your entire life has been for real. This actually one the most scary vid I've ever seen. And this combined with the uplifting song - just brilliant.

[arwenaann]

♥♥ Giovanni ♥♥

♥♥♥♥ Keane ♥♥♥♥

[Blueberry488]

Wait! I finally get it! His whole life changes for some reason!

[Blueberry488]

Sad how his wife cheats and then calls the cops on him. What a betch. I love the song tho! One of meh faves!

[Evilbible]

ah u dont really geddit

[Blueberry488]

I get it now. Fool. Lo. Jk. I know now. The lyrics explain it all. I was just missing it.

[dannyhartis]

man id go fuckin mental if tht happened to me

[zulycastillo]

I'm a huge admirer of Keane, but... can anybody tell me what's the video about???? I think i have an idea but it's not clear..

[darkskull9901]

It explains a guy that has a lovely family, a nice job, but then loses it at the end. like lose your identity, family etc..

[WhereAreTheCarrots]

Such a sad video and song. =(

[tjnb18]

i love this song... it confused me at first but i think it means about not knowing what the future holds and appreciating what it is now but thats just my opinion.

[ghostramos]

wtf . what a worst day

[dorkyrab87]

is this a movie?

lol i thought it was,so i went looking for it.

lol

[bharveyzz]

How could this happened???this is so funny

[dorkyrab87]

is definantly perfectttttt.

we have such good taste.

hey does anybody know what website i can find this movie to buy??

[ICHIGOSAIYAJIN]

IS PERFECT

[Becki637400]

I love Giovanni Ribis he is such an underrated actor

[BoiledBunny]

I don't like everybody's changing. I love this song, though Spiralling could be my new fav. Keane tune.

The new album will go straight to No. 1 when released in Oct.

[dieguiringo]

the video could be better if the song were everybody's changing instead of crystal ball

[schofer]

haha omg at 3:20 to 3:25 it is so funny! lol i just cracked up so hard. it just proves that giovanni is one of the most amazing actors ever lol

[carisonris]

me nkanta keane

[goodbyeyellowbrickR]

It's so hard to watch this because it's like one of my Biggest fears that one day o one will know be and all this.

But Giovanni does a great job ♥

[ArchzAngel]

i think the message is that he tried to be something better, and he wanted it so bad that eventually he got lost in his dream

[GrotesKu]

This video is scary...

[TimBouman]

love their music :)

[martineeFF]

My Giovanni... :* :* :* :*

[ilakaka]

Oh I too, love him so much! ♥

[schofer]

omg I know! <3

[danielKa510i]

zivot je svina :))

[jerica67]

clever and original video, and the song is amazing!

[pickobasterd]

is he the guy in my name is earl as earls best friend ?

[mavitanzi]

Yep! :)

[TheCandleBrother]

To me he is Wade. Thats right, he is Wade in Saving Private Ryan, nobody noticed that? I don't understand the song or the video really. Does anyone know?

[KristoferEricsson]

Anyone know the name of the movie???

[BuTtErfLyNoNaMe]

it isn't a movie. it's a music video.made just for the song

[mavitanzi]

It's not a movie, it's a music video!

[JustJudy29]

My god, Giovanni Ribisi is the hottest guy ever ... how can this woman hurt him? hate her

[flimsyspark99]

giovanni ribisi is the actor in this music video he acted on the perfect stranger with bruce willis

[OldManWalk]

loser

[anitalovesKeane]

supongo que dices loser por el personaje verdad? porque KEANE IS THE BEST BAND OF THE UNIVERSE!!!!

[charlietuna34]

gr8 song....but what was the point of the video? Don't get me wrong it was gr8 too.

[ROBINNAFANN]

One of the best songs ever, i love it <333

[jisaen]

Who's this actor? he looks like Phoebe Buffay's brother

[jimmytto]

ummm he is him brother

[golds079]

from who is his brother, explain pls

[jimmytto]

i'm replying to jisaen's comment that said he looked like the guy that played phoebe buffay's brother in friends and i was just saying that it is him.

[golds079]

ok thanks jimmy thanksfor the explain to me regards; stefan, cheers from; holland, the netherlands...

[jimmytto]

don't worry about it i'm always happy to clear any doubts anyone has

[bewarexxofxxthexxdog]

god it made me cry1the poor guy.i love this song

[wayntennant]

This video is brilliant. It really makes you think and I love the song.

[bussodemerda]

next time get the f***ing dry cleaning b****!!!

[ricochicoewf]

so wait what happens to the guy now

[nightfish2]

Very good video.

[5azza5]

i wonder what happens to the poor guy how all that manages to happen in one day ... but cool song

[requimator]

One of the best songs worldwide. Tom Chaplin and Rice-Oxley executed the best combined vocals hands down when they were singing the chorus, well at least for me.

[lissom2sweet]

poor guy, he lost everything. but i loved the song, and the video backs it up real good.

[alkadeyas]

i luv the song and video

[xfabulusx]

I dont get it...

Whats going on?

Love the song :)

[MartialJim]

Well, he desereved it. She asked him to pick up the dry cleaning at the start and he didn't bother! lmao

[lincolnstriker]

dry cleaning is has nothing to do with this so whats the point of this video

I don't really get it

[naturaldecay]

listen to the words, itll make more sense then.

[dizzyrico]

this vid is same as nothin in myway us version wat the hell,yea the vid weird

[speaknoevil2007]

Love the song but I'm not sure the video really fits the song. The video/story isn't bad I just don't see how it has anything to do with the lyrics. They should redo it.

[bussodemerda]

Love the video but I'm not sure the song really fits the video. The song/lyric isn't bad I just don't see how it has anything to do with the story. They should redo it.

[speaknoevil2007]

Ummm. I couldn't have said it any better myself. lol

[bussodemerda]

thanks mate ^_^

[bussodemerda]

that's some serious shit to happen...

[appleman53]

let me get this straight .......this guys wife left him for a polish guy who then took his job and his life is that on the ball or not....sumone plz explain

[gesiwuj]

No... not as I see it. It's as if people are taking his place in life. It's hypothetically as if he didn't exist. His wife is with another man who has his job, and someone else owns his car.

[guussi]

The vid shows a man replaced by a clone of himself...........

yeah this is happening to everyone in England-we are being replaced by cheap polish workers taking our place-labour think its cool and tell us to get on a plane as your welcome to leave your own country to support your own family with labours high taxes / fines / big brother war waging politics

if everyone did 'have a crystall ball' prehaps they would not have been so fooled by idiots?

give me £100k gordon and i would piss off now

[stephanieOmusic]

wow what you are talking about has nothing to do with the video lol

it looks like you are pretty mad at the polish ppl

[Rooplyn]

Given that Keane are brittish, I don't think this video was recorded in England judging by this guy's accent. Furthermore, Englishmen are really good at whining about immigrants coming and "stealing" the Englishmen's jobs. Everyone needs to work, maybe the polish ppl are just doing a better job doing so. Other countries have problem with immigrants coming to their country, NOT working, that's a pretty fucking big problem but we're not even complaining.

[darkskull9901]

I HATE POLISH PEOPLE

[xoxlivigirl]

WTF?!

[appleman53]

y iz she being such a bitch i dont get it he seems like a decent guy?!?!??! sumone plz explain

[lovex3jennifer]

giovanni ribisci??<3333

[Ficachito]

es como si todos tuvieran alzheimmer menos el protagonista jajaja

[Bduckler14]

I know what's going on in the video but i don't understand what's the meaning of it.

[flamer004]

What's going on?

[gesiwuj]

It is quite complicated. Basically, the guy loses his identity half-way through. It's as if he never existed... his wife has another husband and this man has his job.

[chris5159]

near the start of the video the guy singing says "who is the man were I'm supposed to be"? i think that's the link between the vid and and the song, u might think different?

[mjj300]

he sings "Who is the man I see? Where I'm supposed to be?"

[chris5159]

my bad

[moonchild011]

this song is about emotional coldness and uncertainty of the future,depression...

[ieuanrichardz7]

i dun ger the vid?? :S

[chris5159]

the guy is replaced by another guy half way fru the video

[TMTM1988]

i loooove this song its just gorgeous :) 55555555 stars< 3

[gerry1976]

Now I understand why so many people commit suicide, imagine if one day this happens to you or me? Directly to the psychiatric hospita.

[tonedeafmunkey]

But this cant actually happen..so its not really an explanation for suicide!

[sirks17]

I could live with all the changes, less with the woman that i love not recognizing me

it would be the end for me...

[maryjorockpunkemo]

at least he keeps his clothe!! that was the only thing that they didn't take from him!!

awesome video ;)

[chtsh]

Can't imagine if this happens to real life! How'd you do?

[Rahxephon63]

Guys..just read the novel neverwhere by neil Gaiman and read the graphic Novel and then you would see that where did they got the ideaof this video.

[ejg5824]

this is an awsum video they really should think of making it into a film i would love to watch it great music to

[CuboJekyLL]

yeah..

they should making it into a movie..

it will be a good movie,i think..

good video.....

[hashir]

hey is this a movie?? really cool video

[vvfaraway]

If this became a movie, I think I'd be extremely excited to watch it.

[Joostisjosty]

ahhaa hey i have 2 cristal balls ahahah

[hobadahee]

poor guy...

[juanicanalla]

this guy is crazy or really happens all thats bulshits

[pitdroko]

The guy from this clip was playing a Phoebee's brother in "Friends" and in Savig Private Ryan

[lookatmeyah]

He was also playing in "my name is earl" as earl's freind...I forgot his name

[FREDDO2K7]

his name is giovanni ribisi

[whodatchink]

wasnt he on the x-files playin a dude who got struck by lightning and could control traffic lights and shit? Man he still looks the same...

[nlom22]

giovanni ribisi, love him hihihi

I like this song ^,^

esta buena la cancion

[Krackatou]

isnt the lead actor in this clip the mozart from amadeus movie?

Any way, i love the song.

[haharumi]

Hm...I remember hearing this song before- I really liked it. And then I wrote it down and found it again XD

What a nice song!

[judgewestenn]

isnt that guy in saving private ryan?

[rocky14a]

bad tarnado day !

[gordon9821]

holy crap, what movie is that? I need to know!

[fenderchick257]

I think it's just the video.

[gordon9821]

yeah, I read up on Ribisi's profile earlier that it's just the video. But I can't believe the character fits his acting style so well! I really wish there was a continuation.

[nokensmok]

That guy is amazing, not too long ago i saw him in a european movie, I think it was an independent movie

[TheVitruvianMan]

Keane are one of the best and most innovative bands to ever grace music and their success is mounting, Coldplay dont have a patch on them. Keaneforever

[Mauritzz30]

OOhh come on.. we both know that is bullshit! Coldplay is so much better.. for instance.. the lyrics.. the harmonie of the music.. the guitar play everything is better

[nokensmok]

I still like Keane better, I dig his voice, Is really soothing

[xXxNewZealandishxXx]

I love Keane, his voice is so originaland his lyrics are amazing (:

But Keane and Coldplay are different - you shouldnt compare them to each other, they are both good in their own way (:

Keane AND Coldplay forever.

[ZephirMytril]

yeah i think they are different, i like both tho hehe so thnx for your comment

XD random me
