Perfect Symmetry

Product Information

My favorite part of the song. Very emotional and powerful, almost a plead. I need you, as much you need me. We can work things out if we do it together. Human beings need each other, biologically, physically. We walk together to surpass the bumps and obstacles found in these contemporary times. Cashmere, Tim. "Keane Undercover Music Interviews".

Perfect Symmetry won't make converts, and it will never be listed as a classic. But somewhere, in the darkest of nights, someone will find comfort and a spark of something worth holding onto here. Such banal power may be trivial in the scheme of modern culture, but somehow that matters not. It's still a force for good. Bec. (25 May 2001).

[20] At the start of 2001, Rice-Oxley and Hughes disclosed that the main recording would be " Wolf at the Door," and that it would be completed soon. [20] The band gave progress updates. Hughes recorded drums in late January, and the final recording session was in February. [20] Mixing took place in April. [20] The single was released in June, and only 50 copies are known to have been made, using unlabeled CD-Rs. [21] The stanza after the second chorus (Maybe you'll find...) says that we have got to set our goals high, and we can do so much better than we're doing (sound familiar? Maybe the title of another Keane song?) because we don't have an unlimited time on this earth, and there might not be a heaven where we can live forever after.

Cleary, this is stating a simple truth: our existence is founded on cause and effect, which leads to one of the greatest spiritual truths: we reap what we sow. How can you expect to benefit from a violent act? How can you justify violence through religion when this is known?

While you rely on dogmas and live ruled by something that might not be even real, in the end, life of men is ruled be natural laws, the cause and effect. 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.

The central theme for the song and the album is what can be achieved, and where we should set our goals. Post-release, the band released singles from the album " Bedshaped," " This Is the Last Time" (a version with Island Records) and " Bend and Break" on 16 August, 22 November, and 25 July 2005, respectively.

Release

In April 2005, in the middle of the Hopes and Fears tour, the band began recording Under the Iron Sea with producer Andy Green, who worked with them on Hopes and Fears. The band later recruited Mark "Spike" Stent for mixing duties. Recording took place in Helioscentric Studios, where Hopes and Fears was recorded. Additional recording was done at The Magic Shop Studios in New York. The band won two awards at the 2005 BRIT Awards in February; Best British album for Hopes and Fears, and the British breakthrough act award as voted for by listeners of BBC Radio 1. Three months after, Rice-Oxley received the Ivor Novello award for songwriter of the year. The single " Disconnected" was released on 20 April 2012 in Germany, Switzerland and Austria, [50] with the official worldwide release on 8 October 2012. The single " Sovereign Light Café" was released on 23 July 2012. The video was filmed in Bexhill-on-Sea in Sussex, England.

The music video for the song was released on 19 November. 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). a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o "Ancient Keaneology".

On 10 May 2010, Keane released the EP titled Night Train which, on 16 May became their fourth number 1 album in the UK. Night Train was recorded during the Perfect Symmetry World Tour. The band first named this record as a mini-album, then that changed to an EP. In an interview, Tim Rice-Oxley said that Night Train is "pretty much an album". What is your role in this world? What do you do to be someone distinctive, true to yourself? Do you think the criteria we use to determine progress is really accurate? We live in a dog eat dog world, and it might stay that way for some time.

Keane achieved mainstream international success with the release of their debut album Hopes and Fears in 2004. Topping the UK chart, the album won the 2005 Brit Award for Best British Album and was the UK's second best-selling album of 2004. [5] It is one of the best-selling albums in UK chart history.

Their third album Perfect Symmetry was released in October 2008 and their EP Night Train was released in May 2010. Their fourth studio album Strangeland was released in May 2012 and peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart.
