TIM INTERVIEW IN MUSIC CONNECTION


Enjoy another interview with Timmeh here. It's pretty fun to read it :)
Funny part: Tim's singing is a reminder of what a fantastic singer Tom is. (?) Ha! I think Tim is perfect in Your Love. His voice suits very well.

TIM INTERVIEW IN TODAY'S INDEPENDENT

From KM.com,


There's a great interview with Tim in today's edition of the Independent newspaper, here in the UK. Click here if you'd like to read it online.

My fav part:

In Night Train's "Stop for a Minute," Rice-Oxley writes: "Sometimes I feel like a little lost child/ Sometimes I feel like the chosen one". Both lines are from the heart. "I'm reading Kenneth Williams's diaries at the moment," he starts to explain. "I'm really interested in someone like that, with all the mess and depression. I really associate with people who are honest about their fear of failure. If I feel that I've written a really great song, that's pretty much what I live for. My identity's dependent on it. But there are days I'll spiral into thinking: 'I can't write any more. I literally can't finish even a crap song.' I live in fear of the day when everyone turns round and says: 'Actually, you're right!' That really haunts me. That whatever I had is gone. I spend the whole time dreading that feeling that I'm not good enough. And it's that same fear that leads to thinking: 'If in doubt, stick to the well-trodden path and let's do another [standard-issue Keane hit] "Is It Any Wonder".' But then Tom gives me a kick up the arse..."

HEAR NIGHT TRAIN ON SPOTIFY

From KM.com,


Premium users of Spotify in the UK and in Spain can now hear the whole of Night Train via the streaming service, by clicking here. Those of you who are not paying subscribers can hear three tracks: Stop For A Minute, Clear Skies and My Shadow.

Me says: I can't listen to Tim's playlist because I don't have Spotify...can someone invite me or tell me the name of the songs? :(

TOM INTERVIEWS TIM: SUNSHINE EP

never seen this! incredible!! need to get that EP :)

TIM INTERVIEW WITH ARJAN


My fav part of the interview...

You contributed vocals to the fantastic "Your Love." Why did you decide to step behind the mic? Why did you feel that now was the right time?

We've really learned recently to just go with whatever feels right and not worry at all about what other people's preconceptions - or even our own preconceptions - of Keane might be. "Your Love" was one of those songs that just felt complete as it was. Tom tried to do a vocal for it while we in Copenhagen, but his voice was starting to go and we were worried about the show that night. So we left it for a bit and ended up feeling that it was great as it was, and that an EP like this is a good opportunity to try some things that are new for us - such as me singing a lead vocal. As much as anything, it brings variety. And, of course, there no better way to remind everyone what an amazing singer Tom is. Ha!
