Downtown Lights Lyrics:
Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do
Is love and hold you right
There is just one thing I can say
Nobody loves you this way
It's alright
Can't you see?
The downtown lights
In love we're all the same
We're walking down an empty street
And with nobody, call your name
Empty streets, empty nights
The downtown lights
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know it's true?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's alright
Tonight and every night
Let's go walking down this empty street
Let's walk in the cool evening light
Wrong or right
Be at my side
The downtown lights
It will be alright
It will be alright
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know it's true?
It's alright
It's alright
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know you feel it?
How do I know it's true?
Yeah, yeah, the downtown lights
The neon's and the cigarettes
Rented rooms and rented cars
The crowded streets, the empty bars
Chimney tops and trumpets
The golden lights, the loving prayers
The coloured shoes, the empty trains
I'm tired of crying on the stairs
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah
Paul Buchanan is the one that got away from stardom, truly.
He composed some of the most beautiful songs of the 80s and they gave him nothing in return.
As an off--the-charts fan of the Blue Nile, to even conceive to take on a one of the most beautiful love songs of the last 50 years, not just by the band, but by any artist....and stand upright against the original and land where KEANE does here?! Courageous and absolutely one of the best cover songs I've heard in years. Here's why: it makes me appreciate the original even more and love this version as much.
I’m a lifelong TBN fan too...Keane have made a bloody good job but it just isn’t Paul...
Because Keane is honest and very good at their craft.
They do it justice
The best 👍
Possibly the greatest song ever written.
That … and so many others of The Blue Nile x
I loved the Blue Nile original when I was in college .... but WOW....what a thing of beauty this cover is.
I agree
MASSIVELY AGREE 👍👍👍👍
meh its ok, no character
@@rickdeckard1075 ok - let’s hear your version and it’s gotta be better than ‘meh’ - right?
@@patrickmcveigh9301 as a matter of fact, it is, but that has exactly zero to do with the fact that keane is the literal incarnation of meh, right up there with coldplay, radiohead, REM, katy perry, billie eyelash, etc
Tom’s voice is so beautiful
💯
Of course, who else would cover such an iconic, stunning 80s song.
I just love both so much !
The guts you have to even think of taking on this treasure but then to pull it off, amazing.
Not normally a fan of bands doing cover, but this one is exceptional.
wow, I've been a fan of the blue nile for decades, and frankly, I came here to bash this cover, but I was blown away by the singer, not so much by the instrumental arrangement, but the singer is phenomenal, I think paul buchanan would approve of this
keane made a wonderful cover, Tom Chaplin's voice is unique.
same, what a great vocal performance
I don't care what people say, but for more than 8 years I have observed that ONLY Keane has enough passion for music to take a song and turn it into an amazing new hymn....... I am also blown away by how Tom's voice & Tim's piano are getting more powerful with time...... for me, a new Keane era is beginning and a lot of people in the music industry will have to swallow their past words.........
Blue Nile one of the best groups ever. This song and tinsel town in the rain are unbelievably beautiful.
The best song I've seen Keane perform ever. They fell short on phrasing and melody, but a vey honest attempt.
Are you sure, since the vocal is an exact replica of MrBuchanan's.
I think you fell short on being a complete pretentious douche.
Absolutely amazing cover. It is captivating.
Such a moving song. Beautifully covered by Keane.
Best Blue Nile cover I've heard, from someone who didnt like Keane - really lovingly done. thanks Keane
In that case be sure to check out him covering The Show Must Go On by Queen - you'll find it here on UA-cam. Incredible!
Really lovely…. A fabulous balance achieved in putting their identity into a truly blessed song whilst paying respect to absolute majesty of the original ..
It’s one of the best things about The Blue Nile. The Melodies, sound and words are so painstakingly and generously crafted as to allow the listener their own personal piece of gold within, and then sing it with that meaning.
Well done Keane
Beautiful. Truly!
His voice sound perfect pitch and clear here. Best of tom
Thank you Keane, for another jewel ❤ you are my life's soundtrack
Magnificent version of a magnificent song. Blue Nile would approve in a heartbeat!!!
you have a very pure voice. Don't ever smoke. Take it from a musician that's been playing since I was 16, I'm 54 now. You have a very good voice,
Beautiful voice
Oh my god, this is probably the best cover I've ever seen in my life. So beautiful..
Tom Chaplin's voice is unique.
Actually a beautiful cover thank u Keane respected the song but made it ur own.... Not easy x
Yeah, best cover but there is no one who can match the passion and perfection of Paul Buchanan's vocals.
I agree and adore paul b.
But i have him at number 3...david sylvian n brian ferry being tops
Best cover of this song I’ve heard.
Nothing comes close to the heartbreak emotional feel of the original, but having said that, this is far far better than the rod stewart or annie lennox versions
It is not necessary to be equal to the original, because we have the original, it is important feeling and pain in the interpretation and this is what makes Keane in Tom's voice.
Ana D Fernandes 💚
SO SO BEAUTIFUL . WELL DONE
You can tell they’re fans. Exquisite.
Hats the Blue Nile is one of Keane's favorite albums, says Tom Chaplin
One of my favorite songs ever. KEANE - I always thought you were underrated (Live 8 show was amazing) so I'm not surprised you killed it but you did. Best cover of Blue Nile I've ever heard.
The blue Nile are very underrated they were a very good group
Keane❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
two of my fave bands the blue nile and keane . they cover this song so well . they have done it justice ! bliss !
Best cover of this classic!!
So beautiful. I can't stop listening to it.
Joy!
Good cover. Fair play. Won my respect.
Hats by the Blue Nile is a great album. One of my favorites.
Fantastic rendition. Crisp and clean.
Loved the cover and loved the original. Love for both artists ♥️
3:50 this variation gave me goosebumps
Pure beauty.💗
Gorgeous take on this classic. Great job!
this is the one totally perfect live performance by Keene
no mames casi lloro con esta hermosa cancion y esta version de este fabuloso cantante ni se diga . excelente gracias por subir..
Como siempre Keane nos deleita con excelentes covers , me encanta son los mejores.
Excellent 4:20 minutes of ecstasy.
This is really, really good. Well done 😎😎😎
Muy buen cover. También sugiero escuchen la de aniie Lennox
Amazing cover.
Just…wow.
perfect way to cover a gem
Until 20 minutes ago i didn't know others had even covered this song by The Blue Nile. Just listened to Rod Stewart's and Annie Lennox's versions.....they were just about ok. None, including this has the dramatic sound of the original but fair play to them for covering a great tune.
amazing cover! so beautiful
Thank You so much!!! Brilliant!!!
Great cover. Not an easy band to do justice to
Amazing, the best cover I've heard.
Stunning cover 👌🏻
A great cover!
Lovely voice this fella has
His name is Tom Chaplin.💗 Great singer.💗
Nice. I love it! Our Tom does it once again!
Wow !!!...., further than lovely…, I haven´t heard this Keane´s versión, untill now, and I am so moved.
WONDERFUL!!!!!! Simply wonderful.....
KEANE are the Best!
Thank you for uploading this amazing video!
This is SO good. SO good.
Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do
Is love and hold you right
There is just one thing I can say
Nobody loves you this way
It's alright, can't you see?
The downtown lights
In love we're all the same
We're walking down an empty street

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's alright
Tonight and every night
Let's go walking down this empty street

Wrong or right, be at my side

Yeah, yeah
How do I know you'll feel it?
How do I know you'll feel it?
How do I know you'll feel it?
How do I know it's true?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
The downtown lights
The neon's and the cigarettes
Rented rooms or rented cars
The crowded streets, the empty bars
Chimney tops and trumpets
The golden lights, the loving prayers
The colored shoes, the empty trains
I'm tired of crying on the stairs
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Simplemente hermosa❤
Kool!!!
Bravo!
Oh YES!!! :))
Brilliant ❤️
Thanks!!! i love it!!!
Perfection!
woah turn that piano dowwwn!!
Amazing!!!!!!
Excepcional!
Boss.
Never knew they covered such a band but it's funny how the handful of your most memorable bands all seem to interlink at some point in the proceedings. The Blue Nile were a one off mind you.ps i do wonder about the date on this one. He looks more like the 2005 version of himself.
Tão bom!
I grew up listening to Rod's version, then discovered Keane, then discovered the original Blue Nile version, then discovered this. Wonderful
Very good? No! The Blue Nile were stratospherically brilliant.
good sound
You need to listen to Lucia & The Best Boys version - simply top drawer
Damn
Thank you Nadya for watching! :)
Im glad they covered a beautifull song..nice vocals but a long way off the jaw dropping voice of paul buchannon.
A choirboy that hasn't ever known love. I do really like some Keane songs, but only when they're singing about innocence, and not experience.
Blue Nile/Paul Buchanan sings about experience. There is no pain in this version.
only tom could sound as nearly as good as paul buchanan.i cry every time i hear this sweet tune.
Now now, that sweet face and clear tenor say "innocence," those skinny jeans say "experience."
andreasegde, There is emotion and pain is a very good cover.
Maybe a tad condescending! Of course Tom hasn't experienced the same things as Paul. Those are Paul's lyrics so obviously are the most meaningful and personal to him. Tom has had his fair share of personal trials... as the emotion in his own songs shows. Can they not just enjoying paying tribute to a great band and great song?
👏👏👏
I just happened to come across this. He has a nice smooth yet powerful voice. I like Annie Lennox's version better. A plus though
Thanks for the cover....but Paul Buchanan voice is near on impossible to beat....maybe David sylvian from the group Japan
David Sylvian would be interesting. This Keane cover, frankly, is not cutting it for me. The lead singer does not "feel it."
@@catherinehart5949 totally agree.....buchanan,sylvian,ferry .....difficult to beat.
Very nice. Great job. Piano a bit loud in the mix IMO.
Not a bad attempt - well done.
Official HD version ua-cam.com/video/deOelVzoodU/v-deo.html
The passion and the feel of paul is missing 😢
I feared for the song. I don't much like Keane, especially the ADHD keyboard player and his restless leg, but this wasn't a total disaster. A bit 4-on-the-floor, a wee bit boring. Hell, no-one's ever going to approach the original, but credit for trying, I suppose.
Keane makes an exceptional cover. The best after Blue Nile.
Conveys nothing...
No. I really do not like this cover at all.
Get a hearing aide.
still… by FAR the best cover version EVER!
two of my fave bands the blue nike and keane . they cover this song so well . they have done it justice ! bliss !
