So, if you're going to make a video for our Hopes And Fears video contest, using Snowed Under, it obviously helps if you live in a place with lots of snow. Which, as luck would have it, was the case for Keane fan Lena S who lives in Siberia, Russia. Over to Lena:
"This is my video for Hopes and Fears video contest. It's my first video ever! And so I'm a little bit nervous about it. This song I associate with my town, people that are living here and my friends. I love this song so much and I unhesitatingly decided filming video on this song. Recently have been a lot of snowfalls and I was very glad to it Some frames with my crazy friends, because I filmed it yesterday, after birthday party of my friend. And I want congratulate her with birthday. So, Happy Birthday Olya!!
I hope that you will like it. I hope you won't judge strictly."
It's a great effort for a first video Lena. (And happy birthday Olya.)

nice vid lena.
Great video Lena ! I've never seen snowfalls because I live in Brazil. It seems very fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this song! Thanks to you I´m singing it again and again and it´s a lovely daaaaay. I love the images you used. Well done for a first video. A little bit of a message to go with it and of course some TimTomRichardJesse and it´s perfect.
I love the video!! It's my favorite Keane song and this video is cool! Lovely snow ...
@rubentvr-- Ya me lo imaginaba, aqui en España tambien se utilza cuando algo te gusta mucho, cuando esta genial, cuando mola .... SUPERRRR. Al fin y al cabo es una expresion muy genuina !! DPM !
A Marta: Pues sí, Marta. Aquí en Perú la expresión "de ptmadre" se usa cuando algo sale súper bien o está súper bueno.
Je great that you live in a place where it can snow.!
Amazing place!!!!!! see my video contest : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfDteSowtzA
Hey guys!! Good job, Lena :D HUGE HUGS FROM CHILE :)
All you people who want to offer harsh criticism about someone who took the time to make a video are gutless. Make your own video first and post it here for others to critique before criticizing other peoples efforts. Maybe you won't be so critical when you find out it is not as easy as you think. This video is cute and parts of it made me smile. What more can you ask for.
I love the simplicity of this video. the shots of the people walking the snowy streets give a story to the film. And who doesn't love snow!! Well done. x
This video is just a film of snow in the park, but there are some lovely atmospheric shots, and the whole idea so fits the song that all it needs is a bit more of a storyline, some use of zoom lens, and a little more time spent on it. Good first effort!!
Questo video è dolcissimo, grazie Lena dalla Russia !!!
I'm probably a fool, but i never noticed that this song would sound even more beautiful associated with images of snowfalls and winter. I almost cried when i watched the first seconds of the vid. Seriously LOL very nice! And the ending of the vid. Yeah, what all keane fans love to do. lol Nice job Lena!
Hello! I'm from Russia. Lena, your video is very good! KEANE! We're waiting for you to come back to our country! KEANE, you are THE BEST!
de casualidad no eres la amiga de Lydi???????????' Lena?????????? xD
I would be the happiest girl in the world, with that biggest snowed!
BELLISIMO!!!! QUE MUESTRES TU CIUDAD ....ME ENCANTO...TAMBIEN RECUERDO CUANDO NEVO ACA EN CHILE...
Recuerdo cuando !!!!!!! aquí en Buenos Aires nevo Yo estaba tan feliz que nunca había visto la nieve y es muy raro que nieve aquí !!!!!!! jajaa Excellent video!!!!!! i like very much!!!!! :) zury!!!! los amo cn todo mi corazon!!:)
I have never seen a snowfall but in your video it seems to be something really amazing. Lena I loved your snow birhtday video. Good luck, spaciba.
What a beautiful place! While it´s snowing there, here in Argentina (at least in the place that I live in) it´s pretty hot now. Liked your video Lena. Happy birthday to your friend Olya. I agree with the comment of tonilevans, below. Greetings from here :)
Denis : Of course, we have snow in France !... Not in southern France but in ski resorts... And in south, we have ARENAS !!!... G2B Now :)
That's so funny. Salt Lake City had its first snowstorm of the year today and it looks just like that. :)
It is really Sibír? I had nightmarish vision about this landscape....You seem sincere enough in your expression of real snowy winter and you don´t feel like you are getting snowed under with the cold around you.... You are happy human, Lena, I think and I believe you are a big-hearted and I love generous people.! Agnes, in France it doesn´t snow often, or am I wrong?, or you aren´t from France? Yes, this is a pensive, gentle song with the optimistic moral - when I open my eyes - itś a lovely, sunny day,....... by now g.night
Thanx Lena great video and real snow bye 4 now Babs U.K.
.the snow flakes look so preettyyyy :) i wished it snowed where i live .. great job on the video and good luck :)
Loved it, especially the end...Russia looks beautiful at nights (or at least that's what i see on the video)...congrats Lena! xoxox
I love this nice transition passing from Sun to Snow...and I love snow because it's closely related to my childhood's souvenirs... Good choice km, thanks !... Good work ! It's fun to watch the camera hanging out down the streets, and sometimes with a bit of nostalgia like when it stops on those few empty benches and so on... Lots of love with ♥KEANE♥ nicely printed on snow or on mist of the windowpane... ♥That's so romantic♥ !... It was very enjoyable to watch it ! Plus, the main thing is just that Lena had fun to do it and the guts to send it... ♥Marvellous song♥, indeed ♫ !!!
Well done good first time video loved snowed under one of my favs thanx xxx
Congratulations for your first video Lena, I like it. It woks with Snowed under in my opinion. And happy birthday to Olya!
I love the shot of the lamppost at 3:12. very nostalgic, that and the smoky screen with KEANE written on it. good shots, especially for a beginner.
That is the sweetest thing! to make a video as a present for your friend, Friendship should always come first. I didn't get a chance to read the unrespectful comments, but I'm glad KM did something about it! Congrats Lena and lovely place you''ve showed us :D Love from Monterrey, Mex Gente! tapoco pongan palabras altisonantes en español! Después vamos a quedar mal nosotros también.
@rubentvr: muy explicito por tu parte el comentario...... creo que te ha gustado bastante el video, ja ja ja
De putamadre
This is really good for a first video! Snowed Under is one of my favorite songs I hope I can visit Russia someday it looks so interesting :)
aww!! amo la nievee (n_n)............... lastima que en Monterrey, N.L. México no hay nieve (u_u)....... jajjaa Me encanto Lena!! buen trabajo =)
Wow! What a wonderful place, Lena! Great video! And happy birthday, Olya!
Ohh Lena, that's wonderful! You know, I have this dream (and I know it will come true someday) of seeing the snow. I mean it! So your video really touched my heart, it's truly lovely! Happy birthday to your friend and congratulations to you, you should be proud, you live in a beautiful country, you're a fan of the best band in the world :D and you mande a terrific video from the amazing Snowed Under (God, I love this song!). Lots of love and kisses from Brazil! xxx
darn!, i'd love to be there, here just got a lot of sweat, dust and sand, merida wants some coldness hehehe, what a nice video, just magnificent, and i love the song too, well then. viva KEANE viva Mexico cabrones!!! lol!
Great job Lena!! :) :) It should be snowing here in Canada soon!! Congrats on the amazing video!! :)
Lena! Your video is my favorite! This is best! I think this pictures are closest to the musics spirit. I have just seen, and I was very smily! Lena, you are a lucky girl, you live in a beautiful country! takkkker!
pretty good for making a video for the first time, lena. perfect timing with the weather in your city too. yours, lbtg
nice vid!^^
ur luky to live there =) nice shots =)
Thanks km, Lena nice and magical video. Snow... it embellishes everything it covers.
Thankyou Km.com. I'm glad that comment is gone, I was getting sick of all the uncalled for criticism. I admire anyone who goes to the trouble of making a video and for having the guts to send it in - it's more than I could do. Well done Lena, keep making videos ;) xxxx
It is pleasant to me !! Thanks KΞΛNΞ for your concert in Moscow)))
Seeing this video I came to a conclusion: I think that few people (or rather, ONLY that people) had video of snow under .. How sad! !t´s one of my favorite songs!
Oh thank God !! I found my leash papi chulo doggie....... Good vid , I love sun ::::::::
so...I guess I'm a moron, but I've never heard this song before??? I have all three Keane records and I've been to two shows, but somehow I missed this song. Well, thanks for the video, otherwise I don't know if I would have ever heard this song. Great to hear something new from Keane...even if it is old! : )
Oh yeah, I forgot ....A) Lena, I like the video.....B) Lena, I am sorry you are in Siberia!......C) Lena, stay warm, wear two pairs of socks.....D) Lena, please make more vids...
I think that......some of the "critical" responses......are getting out of hand. At first, I think people were just joking around, but...we are probably not here to analyze the "hidden meaning" or artistic value of a vid. I mean have you seen some of the crappy Keane vids lately? Spiralling? ( eh what was that?) or the laugh-out-loud "The Lovers Are Losing" ( hysterical when that girl rises from the afterlife and DOES A CARTWHEEL ! HA HA ha ) . But I guess, it might be best , to just have a cold one, sit back, smile, and smile with your Keane friends, and enjoy it.
Vaya el video esta muy bueno. Hay creatividad en la comunidad ^^
Come on, David! Don't be that rude!!! I absolutely agree it would have been much better to have an eye-catching plot in a snowy environment, not only landscapes... But it wasn't a waste of time, on the contrary it was a good choice of images! So sad you hate snow, David, but that's not the way to comment on the video. Shame on you! Cheers!
That's a terrific video! Very russian by its nature! You can really feel the atmosphere.
Uau!!! I feel glad to live in a sunny place!!!! rsrs!!!
Snowed Under forever!!!
Nice one Lena, like the misty effect & Keane on the window at the end! Just love that song, why wasn't it a single...x
I am from Russia, cool video)) We love you Keane!! Thank you for your concert!!!!
Amazing...it's a wonderful place!

song-stuck-in-head-CONTINUOUSLY!!!
