New Keane - "Spiralling" • The first single from Keane's upcoming third album Perfect Symmetry (10/13) is pretty cheesy, but some of us like it. Then again some of us like 1987. Take a listen at MySpace or YouTube. You can supposedly download it for free at keanemusic.com, but the site's not loading, which could very well mean a lot of other people like 1987, too.

Goodbye, piano. Hello, synthesizer!
Score = 1
I like it but I keep expecting Bowie to interject with "Let's Dance!". It has the makings of a good mashup.
Score = 1
I could not get through that whole song. awful. just awful.
Score = -3
Brilliant! I hear a lot of Talking Heads influence throughout. I'm really awaiting this album now--really good to hear a band try something totally new and not screw it up.
Score = 4
This song is brilliant, i really am ashamed you all called it cheesy. I come here everyday and respect your opinions but that is taking it too far in my opinion.
Score = 2
I love Keane. Great live. Read every update on their website. Whatever.
Spiralling isn't good. Unless they want to remix it and win a grammy for best dance track. It reminded me of bad Killers music. That bridge was truly brutal.
Score = -3
I dont think it's cheesy as much as it is misguided. I thought they were on the up with their second album now they SEEM to have dropped down again. Let's hope the rest of the new stuff isn't this bad.
Score = -2
And where the fuck is Keane?
Sucks big time.
Inspiration missed.
Score = -2
the problem with reading anything critics write about keane is that everything is polar. it's either love or hate, nothing is very subjective.
Score = 0
i LOVE the interlude bit. brilliant. is he putting on an accent? he sounds vaguely jamacian.
Score = -1
This is a pretty great single, reminds me of Robbie Williams (who I don't even like).
Score = 0
Not their worst song, but not close to the best either. I thought my eardrums were going to explode during Tom's big "spiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiraling" moment. Hopefully I can catch them on tour this time (if they come near NC and if I can find someone to go with me).
Score = 0
Great record. I think people need to realise they ditched the piano ballad style after the first album. That's not a guitar you're hearing on Is It any Wonder, it's a keyboard. The band have a keyboard, drums and vocals - THAT'S IT. All the people that keep moaning about their sound need to get over it and realise what a diverse instrument a keyboard/synthesiser is and that Tim Rice-Oxley is one of its finest ever programmers and players.

Big fan, but this is pathetic. It totally blows.
Score = 0
Sounds Good! I guess I have to say that I am more happy with a good song and a progressing sound than just adding a string quartet(Coldplay) and doing the same as last album. Excited for the album, working with Jacques Lu Cont is never a mistake for anyone.

What the hell happened to Keane? Oh well...thank goodness Thirteen Senses is still around.
