With only three days left until our Hopes And Fears video contest closes, here's another really great entry - this time from Manida S. in Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA, who says, "The story is inspired by Keane's exhaustive Perfect Symmetry Tour path, and some of the artwork is based on Richard's amazing photos. I hope Richard doesn't mind!" We're sure he won't!
Don't forget, you have until Monday, November 9th to make your videos for:
- Bend And Break
- We Might As Well Be Strangers
- Your Eyes Open
- She Has No Time
- Can't Stop Now
- Sunshine
- Untitled 1
- Snowed Under
When you have, please upload it to Vimeo or YouTube and send the link to videos@keanemusic.com. Only one video per person, please.
One winner will be picked for each of the eight songs. We will then select one overall winner who will win a deluxe Hopes And Fears bundle featuring a double CD, a T-shirt and a limited edition signed poster. The seven other song winners will each receive a signed copy of the Hopes And Fears Deluxe Edition double CD.
There's still time to get your creative juices flowing...

Brilliant, absolutly brilliant!!! Manida you´re a genius!!! I mean it!!!
What an amazing video! A worthy contender. A great effort for a beautiful song! Diana xx
Wow, what an amazing video, how did you do that? :D Good storyboard and a beautiful story! Well done! ;)
hey!!! great video!!!! btw... does anybody know when are they going to tell us the result??? or are they going to post another video??? i really liked this contest!!!! im so excited about it!!!!!! love you guys!!!!!!
Muy lindo!!
Lovely!!! Hopefully based on a true story-?? Great job, I recognized some of Richard's photos, you did a wonderful job - it just shows that imagination is limitless! Also, since TTRJ hate flying so much, maybe they should start travelling by seahorse?
@Mufin & Naye: Your remarks are very rude and uncalled for. It's fine to cheer on your friend if he or she is participating in the video contest but don't go to other video threads and post "so and so's video is better than this." My friend, Manida, worked hard on her video and she is upset by these thoughtless posts. Please be considerate of others and think about what you are going to say before you put it down in here.
NO HAY VIDEOS DE ARGENTINA?????? º/ª)

I like to have left all till the eleventh hour. I thought I would send very nice video Your Eyes Open. I have many good shots, but I had miscalculate.....The downloaded programme for making videos simply failed! I am hopeless.Will I be successful or wont?" Mary, Michael and Brighid, Be with me all three"! / Btw I admire your vids, guys , you are so clever, hats off !!!/ / btw 2: " The chain of wedlock is so heavy that it takes two to carry it- and sometimes or/ often/ three." Heraclitus
Manida ---- Amazing! Very creative...loved it!
Sorry, forgot to mention - nice video sarah2410. Maybe we'll see it here soon.
Thanks, Denislavia. Actually, I can't complain of being a Keane fan. I met a lot of friends while mountains came to Mohammed as Mohammed wouldn't come to the mountains. So, it's fun after all. Stay safe.
One of the bests.
Miss Teake, yes, unfortunately, "This is the so-called civilization of "Consumption and consumerism".... One quickly learns that the more one possesses the more one wants." "We must emphasise and give prominence to the primacy of human beings in the production process, the primary of human beings over things."/ pope John Paul II/ Nevertheless I believe I will be once at a concert of my beloved Keane..... And yet one traditional Irish blessings, " My wish for you is that you may always have a friend who is worth that name. Whom you can trust, and who helps you in times of sadness. Who will defy the storms of daily life at your side. That you might be brave in times of trial, when others lay cross upon your shoulders.One more wish I have for you, "That in every hour of joy and pain you may feel God close to you...."

HI!!!!!!!!!!! KEANE!!! NICE VIDEO!!! I LIKE IT!! THE SONG TOO!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!! KISSES FROM ARGENTINA!!!! ♥♥♥ Y CON RESPECTO AL DISCO DOBLE.... LO QUIERO RIGHT NOW!!!!!!
please view my entry video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMgG8k3K4Qs it's we might as well be strangers. for whatever reason i was marked with 3rd party content and my video doesn't appear in the youtube search results :( i'm working on uploading it again with different info so you all can find it when you search for the different entries for the song :) i already sent it in to the band please enjoy our endeavor!
I totally agree with Miss Teake, beautifully done, a magic carpet for all those fans who did not get to see you live last year...
please watch my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkrKWHjAOew and write a comment to tell me how you like it. I know it's not perfect and I dont need to win (but I'd like to^^), well I had a lot of work and fun with it though and I'd like to have a feedback of you!!! Thanks!
Well done, Manida. I find the idea of following Rich's updates from the PS tour from all over the world brilliant. It feels like paying a tribute to the member who still cares and makes all the difference. On a side note, your clip showed, in fact, how small Kean-o-geography is and that some places will probably never make it there. So, the fans from Central and SE Europe who don’t have the magical flying rug, get on with it, pack your luggage and work hard for the next tour or just find a rich sponsor. Sad but true. Sorry for the random thoughts, blame it on the beautiful fan-made video. Maybe all the fans who took the time and efforts to create these clips deserve some proper way of appreciating their work.
Hey guys!! What a great video!! I loved it: the idea, the drawings, the rhythm, the postage... Manida: great job!! Good luck :) HUGE HUGS FROM CHILE :)
Cute music video, lovely artwork :)
You are my inspiration, today I met very good friend - maybe my Irish aman cara John, ironicaly in Slovak pub.! I wish you were happy for ever.....:)
I love keane nayelitzel98@hotmail.com it's mi e-mail wiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)
Congratulations Manida S. !!!! beautiful, creative....., I love it !!!!!!!!!
WOW! WOW! WOW!
BEAUTIFUL!!! And you can see my video on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNP63_YHqjA or Elmirochka100 :)
jaja piano hopes and fears the horses and the whale is under the iron triangles of perfect symmetry! VERY GOOD ... and I hope another cd keane throw ee! jaja love keane! GO KEANE
WOW that's awesome - love it
Its good and creative, but how does it fit in with the song? Anyway, well done Manida.
E' un video molto originale e creativo !Mi è piaciuto molto , complimenti !
I like this one very much, very clever work.
I don't think Richard will mind at all! What a lovely vid! Imagery & ideas are excellent; lots of reminders of Keane's past & present!!!
Just to say hello + to add something dont tout le monde se fout but I'm even so happy to tell it here because anyway it's talking about Love : I'm coming back from my letterbox (what a trip !) and I found a postcard from my second cousin who is recently married this summer (and who made me cry a river for being so lovely in her wedding-dress !) :P By the way, I have to put a KEANE song on the very short film made at the ceremony... And for now, I'm happy as an old fool just because it's a card with four views and one of them represents nearly the same view of Sydney Opera like in this gorgeous vid ♥... However, I don't know if they will have the guts to taste Vegemite☺!!!
I love it! great video congratulations =)
It's so lovely! I think this is the best one yet.
Wow!! Great idea! Very beautiful and very romantic video! I really enjoyed watching it, thank you so much!
Lovely >.

Wow..! The best, You'll win...!

It's very good!! I like it so mouch!
The most original of all! I love it
I really had no doubt about this getting posted in here! It really is an excellent job and idea for the song. Thumbs up Manida and best of luck :)
Hi Manida, I liked your vid very much mainly because it's light and lovely. You are creative and a great art designer. Good Luck! (Boa Sorte!) Keane I love how you inspire people...Take care.
HELOISA, ISA from Brasil, Sao Paulo ★★★★As someone said below: adorable! LOTS OF LOVE TO MY FAVOURITE BAND! ★★★★★★ XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Richard, for heaven's sake ! I hope you don't mind... That's too amazing, too beautiful and what a nice way to rediscover your pics !... By the way, Tim's piano is the best airline for making the trip !... We can't imagine this ride on drums for instance (as there's too much stuff to carry away !) or then ridiculously/uncomfortably seated astride Tom's microphone !... Awesome imagination and delightful love story *big sigh*... A huge thanks to the film-maker, and also to the projectionists who seem to have fun as much as us all !... Thanks but frankly, I wonder what lies ahead if you keep the best for the end☺! ♥Peace & Love♥...
