The New Keane Single That Premiered Today Is Pretty Awesome

Here's "The Lovers Are Losing," the first official single off Keane's third album, Perfect Symmetry. It was played on the Hit40 UK chart show today.



Keane initially got knocked around for being a Coldplay knock-off, but they pretty much came into their own with last album Under The Iron Sea.

"The Lovers Are Losing" is just as good as "Viva La Vida," and between this and "Spiralling"—the song they recently offered for free for a week—so far it sounds like Keane's album might kicks Coldplays' butt.

"Spiralling" is up two to #26 on the official U.K. chart this week.

1. "I Kissed A Girl" - Katy Perry *3 weeks*
