Hopes and Fears is Keane's debut album, and the 11th-best-selling album of the 2000s in the UK. The record is full of soaring and romantic songs like Everybody's Changing and Somewhere Only We Know. Tim Rice-Oxley's piano stylings range from Ben Folds on Can't Stop Now to Chris Martin on Your Eyes Open, never leaning too heavily in one direction and ultimately providing the musical backbone over which Chaplin is allowed to sweep and soar.
Housed in a bespoke 3CD digipack with printed wallets and a booklet, this 20th anniversary edition includes the newly remastered album, previously unreleased demos, B-sides and rarities, plus brand new sleeve notes from the band and original team.
