" SIR . PAUL MC CARTNEY " ... AND ... " MY DEAR BAND " ? GOD SAVE AND BLESS ... BOTH !!!!!!!!!!!! AFFECTIONATELY , Adriana .
Paul McCartney and Keane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Janet JAckson and Morcheeba are also great. Has this anything to do about the collaboration Tom has being talking about?
See guys from km.com that there were mashups and I'm glad that you've put Paul McCartney with Keane, It's my favourite!!!!!. Regards. Inés from MENDOZA, ARGENTINA
As well as us voting i would love to know which ones the guys would choose xxx
i liked timbland vs. keane it was great! :) x0x0x
Paul McCartney vs Keane is the best, I called them McKeane Band. Kisses...Regina. Brazil-Sampa!!!
@ hey lunadelalba, i also think sir paul is the easiest pick being that it may be the most familiar name and similar genre for many current keane fans. i'm surprised no one has picked this up yet but the driving beat behind this mash-up seems to be built around dj jazzy jeff and fresh prince's 'summertime' (which in turn was sampled from kool & the gang's 'summer madness' song). you can totally hear it towards the very end of the keane vs. mccartney mash-up! ok, i am a super dj geek (lol). always, lord byron the girl
well after discounting the ones with swearing in, it really is only a choice between Paul or Morcheeba........and i'm obviously in a chilled state, cos Morcheeba won! I've voted :-) hello there to all Keane fans all over the world, where ever you may all be.
Keane vs paul mccarney is better :-) yeah¡¡¡
The best washup is:::::::::: Paul vs Keane I think so Kisses from Mexico
BTW, I still hate the bossy one, the name is funny though XD
Hmmmm......I think I only liked: the bedshaped one, because it keeps this low mood, but Idk....and the pony pony haha, that was funny, I gave my vote to that one.......I liked the one morcheeba one, because its the only one where you can hear a lot of Tom's voice :D, but wasn't my favorite...and I liked the first one, but I think it has too much of Timbaland, and too little of Keane :) Great work guys, very funny :)
I can't choose. I really like Lil' John, but I also think the one with Janet Jackson is great! I have to think about this,..
@caroalvaradoj Hiya Pal....And To Everyone Else Who Likes The Janet Jackson & Timbaland V Keane Mash-Ups...You Can Download The mp3's From My Youtube Page If U Like...The link Is In The description on the vids....cheers!!!
Keane Vs Paul McCartney it's great but I think it's too easy and not enough contrasted ! I like Morcheeba, the musical arrangement is beautiful. I like too Pony pony Run Run. Thanks and ENORMES BISOUS. Love
I love McCartney vs keane perfect!!
Just put my opinion about the mashups, i chose the one with sir Paul and i thought it was great, those trombones, or something going on after every sentence were very well put. And as i saw the results, it seems that many of us, keane's fans, have choosen the same! The people have spoken!
Hey , i just loved timbaland vs keane.... I love hip hop too, and the song way i are is just one of my favorites.... I was just so excited when i heard that mash-up. Its nice to know that this band i willing to experiment.... Big time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...i found the track of Keane with Pone Pony Run Run...so amazing...totally love it...
...my top 3 are...1. Moncheeba vs Keane...2. Timbaland vs Keane...and 3. Janet vs Keane... ...the Pony Pony Run Run vs Keane one, i couldn't hear it :s ... ... ...however, i got a conclusion...definitely need at least one song with a female voice... ... ...for sure the next album is going to be be great and full of surprises...nice guys!...
are you planning an acid house album guys?. MC Cartney seems an easy option and clear influence. With respect to the other ones we may have fun with such a contrast . I think this a hard task and I always has in mind the version that Puff Daddy did of Roxane by the Police ENJOY THE CHALLENGE but Tom voice will be covered by the music of those house musicians . We all will be dancing but it´s a pity as we already dance Keane . Favourite?None of them probably Paul Mc Cartney but you wont get what your looking for XXXXXXXXXXXX
i have already vote but it was very difficult! now i want the songs! how could i get them??
Just Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Greeting from Mexico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ honey and finishi, i agree that this might be a little test to acclimate us to the kanye/k'naan/keane collaborations. hhaah i'm sure, it's a big difference btw what the collabos might sound like vs the mash ups but if this is a test then i agree with miha that it might be a good idea for keane to feel out the hip-hop / r 'n' b / dance websites that might not know about the band for marketing purposes if they haven't done so since many current keane fans (as site visitors) seem to go more towards the awesome mash up of the classic yet similar sounds of paul mccartney vs. keane. but who knows? they may pick this one too b/c it's pretty good and i'd rock it in a set too! either way, thanks again for opening many of us up to these different music perspectives and sounds! always and forever, lord byron the girl
JohnnyGee, it's very noble of you to wonder if you can vote or not. If only for that I think you can.
Paul McCartney vs. Keane !!!!! Really great, Good luck guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you, Tom !!!!!!!!!!!! Raissa. Brazil - São Paulo.
@JohnnyGee, sorry man, the best Keane mashup track is not among this setlist. Do you have another ten?
Did you listen to Empire of the Sun vs Keane : Ist it any drem we walking on?
JohnnyGee, it's a great pleasure to meet the person who did these awsome mashups! Bravo!
Hi Finshi Its The Janet Jackson 1 & The Timbaland 1........Plus I Got More Tunes Over At www.youtube.com/JohnnyGee08 Or Check Me Out At www.bebo.com/Johnnyg2008 Oh And Its A Pleasure To Meet U All
@JohnnyGee: Pardon my ignorance, but which 2 are your mashups? That's cool that we have one of the mashup creators leaving comments!
Paul McCartney and Keane... there is absolutely no contest. Both songs flow so well together, the other s sound awkward. Now, wouldn't that be AMAZING if Keane and McCartney actually collaborated on a track?!!?
Hey Guys & Girls.......Its An Honour To Have 2 Of My Mash-Ups In The Final 10...I Dont Think I Should Vote Though,They All Sound Great To Me.....Ive Started Work On My New Keane Remix...And I Promise It'll Be Something Very Special.....Big Shout To Everyone Who Has Voted....Who Wouldve Thought A Wee Guy From Scotland Would Get This Publicity lol xxx
excelent work!!!!!!!!!!:) yo eligo a...todos tam muy buenos!!!!:) pero sigo eligiendo a janet jackson vs keane!!! y like ver much!!! los kieroooooooooo mucha suerte keane!!!!!!!!!!!!:) los felicito!!!! zury!!!:)
Noooooo, what the hell is this?! I surely hope this is NOT prepairing us for the next album.
keane & janet jackson !
I've just voted for Paul McCartney vs. Keane! but it was a difficult choice because I liked almost every single mashup!! And this made me realize that no matter what the song sounds like, I will always love everything that comes from Keane!!! ♥ I miss you guys, i can't wait to your return! Love from argentina
Ciao Keane, è stato difficile scegliere fra tutte queste canzoni , però alla fine non ho avuto dubbi : ho votato per Paul McCartney , è bello lo stile dei Beatles abbinato col vostro , è più congeniale ! La canzone è venuta molto soft e nello stesso tempo briosa ! Complimenti ! Grazie per queste simpaticissime novità, un bacione da Sabrina from Catania, Sicilia!!!
PAUL McCARTNEY VS KEANE........!!!!!
hhmm, I don´t think that I can vote, because the Kelis vs. Keane is not available for my country. So, I can´t make a decision, what would be fair. And, even I´m not that mashup-fan, for songs, I decide for the best dark-real-hiphop track I would go for Nr.4 Young Jeezy and Nr. 6 Morcheeba good-nice chilling-dreaming song.
Hi there!!! May your weekend recharge you for a wonderful week to come. Sending you possitive energy your way! lots of light ☮♥
Voted :)
Sun, this morning !... Unfortunately, in the midst of all this noise and among my favourites (and I forgot Timbaland that is also very catchy), I regret we don't hear a bit more of Tom's voice all the same !... No matter who will be the winner and I seldom put nail polish, but next time I'll make it dry on rythm of Kelis v Keane, Hihi !!!... Rap isn't my cup of tea but I've got the Miseducation Of Lauryn HILL's album and some of my favourite Rap bits are «Everything Is Everything» & «Doo Wop (That Thing)» but I appreciate to listen most of its tracks... And I also love Pras featuring Mya & Ol' Dirty Bastard on «Ghetto Superstar»... Great ! ♥KEANE♥, thanks for the stuff once again !!!...
Voted!!
Honey is right. This little exercize is to prepare us for the next album (or whatever it is called.)
Janet jackson fit perfectly! Pony pony run run was close, and Lil John was pretty funny! But are you guys SERIOUS that Paul McCartney's the favourite?!
@lord-byron: Glad you liked my question. Unfortunately, I am filled with questions, but devoid of any answers whatsoever. In fact, I have another question at this very moment: does the winning track get a prize? It would be nice if perhaps we can see a video of the Keane lads commenting on how they feel about the track. Then again, they're on their well-deserved break at the moment. Ah well...just a thought. @Honey: Hi! Nice bumping into you again! :)
OH MY LORD! KEANE VS MACCARTNEY! WHAT A MASHUP GUYS!!!!!!!!! IM IN LOVE WITH IT..LOVEEEE IT! THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL ABOUT THAT MASHUP! GREETS FROM COLOMBIA KEANE!!! LOVE YA, COME BACK SOON PLEASE ;) KEANE COLOMBIA FAMILY LOVES YOU
Paul McCartney vs. Keane *----* is the best! Your could play together someday, it's will be amazing! Keane come to Brazil again!
Ha ha ha!!!! I love them! Are you psycologically preparing us for the next album? Ha ha ha! Well, I go for Timbaland vs Keane! ;-) OK, lots of hugs for everyone. Cheers from Colombia! Thank U for the fun moments, KeaneMusic!
OMG this is hard they are all amazing! hahaha i loved the one with timbaland and bedshaped ( : you should do some remixes is waaay cool ( : love you keane!!!!
good question, finishi...@ denisa, my dear you know i love you b/c you speak your mind and have your own opinions but i am 'lord byron' *hint hint* hence, my gentle prodding for keane vs kelis b/c it gives me that 'dirtylicious' live keane mash up vibe! i do think it could be tweaked a bit more and possibly substitute too $hort for more of tom's vocals if this has a chance at becoming a legit radio edit for play. i'd totally rock it for sure but to each his/her own. besides, as a dj myself for a number of years, i think to be extreme is just one of the goals of a mash-up. however, i understand that keane vs kelis might be a bit too hot and too much! it's all good. you like what you like but together we all love keane. ; ) always and forever, lbtg
Holy-Mashups! Who would have guessed that Tim's melancholy piano melodies would blend so well with rap?! Now I simply need to hear Tom bustin' out da rhymes in rap format!!! Perhaps in the K'naan collaboration? Anyhoo, my vote goes to Morcheeba vs. Keane; Somewhere Only We Know sounds so chilled in this version. Now that I've dutifully cast my vote, I shall go cleanse my system with the original Keane songs! By the way, do "mashers" ever get sued for copyright infringement (seems like a relevant question)? Love you Keane and can’t wait for November 9th!!!
wuoooooooooooo Paul McCartney vs Keane is great jeje, kisses from Monterrey Mexico of Keanemotion Fan Club
It's difficult. My favorites are 1, 4 and 7 but I think I vote for Paul McCartney vs Keane. Young Jeezy vs Keane sounds like a soundtrack. Great! ~~~ Kisses...Silke ♥
Sorry for God (Paul) but that's a bit too classic and so finally I voted for Miss Kelis for fun (Funny when she waves her hands like to dry the nail varnish and the mix of these 2 vid is hoot !...And hot !)... By the way, the mix with Janet isn't bad at all too and I had a soft spot for the combination 2Pac+Bedshaped but I don't like some parts of the song with the female voice... Oh dear, tonight there's a terrible thunderstorm + lots of flash of lightning this minute and I hate that... I'm scared... Bye !!!
Kelis vs Keane? Extremes meet? I think ,, Extremes sholud never meet, thatś my experience and my humble opinion. But Kelis vs Keane is interesting, mainly this - good boys/ bad girls! lol/ Sex is interesting, but itś not totally important, I mean it´s not even as important / physically /as EXCRETION. A man can go seventy years without a piece of ass, but he can die in a week without a bowel movement.- Ch. Bukowski/ I was looking for Eminem there, unfortunately in vain. Bien sur Paul Mc Cartney.!!!

Ohh I still would love to hear Keane vs David Bowie, but that's okay guys! :D This one with Paul McCartney is really great, I truly loved it! It's a dream to me to listen to Tom singing with Paul, brilliant! Thanks for that, supersize love!
Paul McCartney Vs. Keane without a doubt is the BEST!!!! Their voices blend together in Perfect Symmetry!!! They should really try to collaborate with him and do a song together!! That would be Great!!LOVE YOU KEANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paul McCartney vs KEANE!!!!!!!!!!love from MEXICO
My favorite one is Paul McCarteney Vs Keane Love From Mexico
My fave is Paul McCartney vs Keane ..Hugs from Brazil XXX
paul macCarney..and keane!! thanks for the music ..i love in argentina.... kiss
lol, one of the dumbest things you've done. I picked one at random. They all suck to me
This is actually pretty hard. There are some really good ones!
Timbaland vs Keane!!!
hoho that's fun guys!! (a little weird, but really cool! :D) ...I voted for SOMEONE TO CALL ANY WONDER!! see ya!.
i love this! i would have chosen the let's dance/spiralling but from the list my vote goes for kelis (radio edit, of course). the paul mccartney is very nice and is awesome for some of the 'old school' keane fans but i'd love to see keane with a shot of 'naughtiness' as we saw in the live mash up w/ 'dirtylicscious.' besides, i dig the crazy contrast (britpop/hiphop, melancholy/debauchery, good boys/bad girls) with KELIS VS KEANE! knowing my own crazy tastes, i think the clubbing hip-hop hipster fashionistas will devour this. keane and crew you all are so awesome! congrats in advance to whoever the winner might be! forever yours, lbtg
Ooh i wanna have Keane rapping like that!!(?) haha. Anyway. This is fun! My vote goes to Morcheeba and Ekclipz and Paul McCartney. But i can choose only one. mmmh let's see...
ok, now with IE i can ;)
why i cant see the videos??? u.u
Timbaland ... yes! Cheers from Argentina! Uma x
Guys, the one of Janet Jackson rocks!!!!
AWESOME!
Young Jeeze Vs. Keane Best Mashup!!!
