《KEANE基音樂團 倫敦O2現場演唱會 劇情簡介》- 2007年7月21日基音登上了倫敦O2的舞台,這也是長達18個月的「深海之音」世界巡迴演唱的最高潮。【深海之音】專輯從2006年6月發行之後,基音樂團在歐洲、美國、拉丁美洲的大型演唱會幾乎門票場場售罄,基音最後回到了家鄉倫敦,他們面對的是17000名聲嘶力竭的歌迷,打破了O2的紀錄。為了要將這歷史的一刻紀錄下來,基音特別請來曾為齊柏林飛船、綠洲合唱團掌鏡的導演 Dick Carruthers 來拍攝演唱會 DVD,演唱會中基音好像對17000觀眾施了魔法,一首接一首演出專輯中共21首暢銷歌曲。鼓手 Richard 撼人的鼓聲,鍵盤手Tim錐心的旋律,再加上主唱 Tom 獨一無二的歌聲,基音樂團用最美麗動人的音符把偌大的空間毫不費力的填滿。英國泰晤士報稱之為「一場凱旋返鄉的演唱會」。而現在錯過演唱會的人可以透過 DVD 感受到現場的實況。除了演唱會,還收錄了精彩的幕後花絮,清楚一窺演唱會的籌備過程。其中包括攝影機鏡頭從另一角度拍攝的整場演唱會、彩排畫面、9分鐘的演唱會紀錄片、以及以投影幕畫面呈現的3首單歌。相信看過這場 DVD 的基音歌迷一定和主唱湯姆有同樣的想法,他在演出中有感而發的說:「我真的很慶幸我們錄下了這場演出,這一刻就是永恆。」
Keane: Live
Year: 2007
Genre: Rock
Description:
If I had to use one word to describe the music of Keane, it would probably be pure. When you listen to Tom Chaplin, Tim Rice-Oxley and Richard Hughes singing and playing, you feel, you understand everything they want you to know. Their music is simple yet elegant and powerful.
Recorded live at the O2 Arena in London on July 21, 2007, Keane: Live contains a total of twenty one songs taken from the band's first two albums - Hopes and Fears (2004) and Under the Iron Sea (2006). During the course of well over two hours, Keane perform every single one of their big hits – "Everybody's Changing", "Nothing In My Way", "We Might As Well Be Strangers", "Somewhere Only We Know", "Crystal Ball" and "Bedshaped".
There are two key reasons why Keane: Live is an incredible show. First, the band is as good performing live as they are in the studio. The easiness with which Tom Chaplin sings is indeed very impressive - his voice literally fills up the O2 arena. Second, the chemistry between the band and the audience has to be seen to be believed. Whether it is a powerful ballad ("Bedshaped") or a more energetic song ("Crystal Ball"), when Tom Chaplin urges the audience to sing with him, they immediately respond. Simply put, it is incredible to see and hear hundreds of people singing in unison.
Technically, the show is undoubtedly one of the best ever staged at the O2. The stage is neither too big nor two small. The lighting is also very effective - the large ball used during the acoustic session is fantastic - it is neither too elaborate nor too simple.
The tech crew responsible for the recording of this show deserves a lot of credit. The camera operators literally follow Tom Chaplin everywhere he goes. I also strongly recommend that you take a look at the raw footage from the show supplied in the extras department on this disc to see what type of work has been done so you could get as good of a feeling about Keane when they perform live as possible. Indeed, magnificent work!
