4.0 out of 5 stars 3 Cool Tunes, December 11, 2007

If you like Keane, you'll like this 3 song collection; Very thoughtful lyrics as usual!! The cover of 'Under Pressure' is excellent; Something to tide you over until the next B side or 3rd CD; I wish they had put something else on here in place of the 'Put It Behind You Now' remix, but 2 out of 3 ain't bad. Very well produced!!

Keane does it again! There seems to be no stoping this magnificent trio from churning out superior sounds, and I hope that nothing will stop them anytime soon. This band really has brought back music talent that just seemed to be a lost concept that existed only in the realm of the 50's to the 80's. The first track, "Night Sky", is superior with its familiar "Keane" sound we have all come to know and love and the second track, "Under Pressure", even sounds a bit better than the original by Queen and David Bowie!

Give this release a try and prepare to be very satisfied!

Night Sky is an ok track by Keane. Under Pressure sounds like the original. They bring nothing new to it. It's not worse than the Queen/Bowie version, but why bother with a cover if you're not going to do anything different? And then there's a mix.

I do like Keane. I would have given "Hopes and Fears" a 6/5 stars, but this one is nothing special.
