Jpw48 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Yeah, the soundbites sound really exciting!!! Its hard to decide on the sound they're going for on this album, they originally said they were goning to try and go back to the more basic sound of H&F, which I think I'd prefer to the more ocmplicated sound of UTIS. Not that UTIS isn't good, because its amazing. I think think H&F was even more amazing-er!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Keane and Coldplay Well, when I first heard Keane's song ''Crystal Ball'', especially the line ''starting to disappear'', it reminded me of Coldplay's ''God put a smile upon your face'' video. And I always wanted to know how good would the two actually be when combined. And now, out of curiosity/boredsome I combined the two and put them on youtube :P And here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp8eRwLtGWI I think it turned out good enough. Note: If you don't like Keane, don't watch the video, because you'll probably be angry that I associated them with the Coldplay vid, hehe. I personally think that Keane is a decent band, but Coldplay is number 1 in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crestingwaves Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yer, these two are my top bands as well. Coldplay out do Keane by quite a bit, but Keane make a nice 2nd favourite atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Good call! Most of them went to school together so they came up with similar tastes and influences. It fits.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah and Chris asked Tim Rice-Oxley to join Coldplay at some point very early on if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 That's right, they were good friends in college and when coldplay was coming together Chris offered Tim a spot in the band as a keyboardist and he thought really hard about it too. Keane was already off the ground though, and I think Chris became less fond of making coldplay a five piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Wow, I didn't know that :stunned: Anyway, I'm glad you like the vid :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busybeeburns Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I look myself in the eye and there's no-one there.. that's the guy in the restroom looking at himself in the mirror disappearing :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah the simmilarities between the song and the vid are absolutely stunning. Also on the beggining ''Ooh Crystal ball, crystal ball, tell me life is beautiful'', showing the man in the suit, but with no shoes... that's how reality looks like, not as beautiful as the song wants it to be.
