“I don’t wanna be old and sleep alone…An empty house is not a home” As a Gen X at that age when you start to lose an older generation of the people you love…This hits hard. God I love this song.
Love this one. It's absolutely epic. This album has a more grandiose production style to it, than the first album. Tim who wrote this one said that it's about having a feeling of terror about being alone. It was originally written to be a B-Side but ended up becoming the album opener. I also can't wait for you to do 'Bedshaped' from the first album as it's my favourite track. It's the final song on the original album and it was actually the track that I had put into the Lucky Dip folder to introduce you to them, before you started the deep dive.
I think you missed two songs from Hopes and Fears : Bedshaped and On a day like today. There is also a bonus song from the deluxe edition : Snowed under.
Hmmm, no, I didn't react to that. But I reacted to the "Untitled" track, which Discogs shows as the final tune, so I assumed I had finished the record. But obviously I skipped that, sorry, I'll go back and do it for the next Keane reaction.

I really dig this album and completely agree that it builds upon what came before it, sonically.

Ahhhh, I see. My mistake/bad memory. But cheers, that's the next Keane reaction, then. :)

So I do have access to “Bedshaped,” but the other two I’m not sure about. Will look into it.
My memory is going to 💩 ... i thought this was earlier than 2006 ... cracking album anyway
I love this album 😊. Did I miss your reaction to Bedshaped from the last album?
Hmmm, no, I didn't react to that. But I reacted to the "Untitled" track, which Discogs shows as the final tune, so I assumed I had finished the record. But obviously I skipped that, sorry, I'll go back and do it for the next Keane reaction.
Yes, please do, it's one of their absolute best songs 🙂. It was the 3rd single and final track on the album (in the UK at least) 👍🏻
