there's this song i like:keane-spiraling

hazim and the new asymptotes
hey. hazim here...again. I'm not a big fan of Keane. Their first album was great. Their second was okay. But they never really made me excited. Mainly cus I thought that they sounded like The Bravery with a heavy accent most of the time. But this! THIS! This song is like a total complete unashamed full-plated serving of sugar rush. The lyrics aren't as happy go lucky as the spiraling house beat that Tom Chaplin squeals over. But this serves as a slice of retro awesomeness in a time when The Killers aren't killer anymore, and ABBA are dead. This song, "Spiraling" comes from the band's upcoming third album Perfect Symmetry. And yes, the talked out verse after the second chorus is a bit grating, but the whole "WHOO!" thing going on in the song makes you feel like Tom and his band just filled up a big fat syringe with sugar and injected your brain with it. Yeah, it hurts. But it hurts so good. Hazim. Out.
