Product Information

Drowned in Sound gave it 5 out of 10, accusing Keane of excessively imitating Coldplay (specifically comparing "Your Eyes Open" and "On a Day Like Today" with, respectively, "Daylight" and "Politik" on the band's album A Rush of Blood to the Head), criticising the album as being "stylistically all over the place" and its lyrics as being "immature" and "cringe-worthy". However, it gave credit to the album's "fine moments", praising lead single " Somewhere Only We Know" as "breathtaking". [32] Toward the end of 2018, Keane posted a series of cryptic images onto their various social media accounts, hinting that the quartet were in the studio working on material.

It features the band inside a future-like glass room with a television screen that shows a video of Chaplin singing the song. The band members are also seen in another room doing various things. Different items appear throughout the video, usually aligned symmetrically to reflect the song's lyrics. During the start of each chorus, a different location in the world is shown (e.g. a waterfall in the first and mountains in the second). For me, these verses are nearly metaphysical) The thing is: doing stuff just because you or your group/class think is right, without thinking about others, can have serious consequences. Constant war and tension is built up because of this. We have to think about other people. The band released "This Is the Last Time" on Fierce Panda, in October 2003 as the final release on that label. Archive". keanemusic.com. 31 July 2008. Archived from the original on 4 August 2008 .

Love is repeatedly discussed in the media and by our society as a transforming force, and this is considered very cliché. However, once you get out of your shell and look to others, try to put yourself in others' shoes, you start to live in line and create empathy, which is a different form of love and caring and is indeed revolutionary. People tend to search what brings them comfort, and it might distance then from what is being able to live socially. In religion, they gather up, in a closed group, and live more with abstract and ethereal concepts then with humanity, getting far from what should be democracy and tolerance. In technology, they are far from each other, even though thinking they are connecting. Internet and online spaces (as in common to churches, according to the song), as a whole, contain lots and lots of empty thoughts, people following others without critical sense. The rush hour buses are an image to lots of people together, however apart: in buses and cars, the agglomeration is big, but it doesn't mean real interaction is made. On 16 June 2019, Keane performed a set at the Isle of Wight Festival, being the closing act of the event. On 14 July 2019, Keane did a set at the British Summer Time concert in Hyde Park. Bec.
