20 November 2009

As we told you back in July, Keane contributed to the terrific Rhythms Del Mundo Classics album, which featured an Afro-Cubano take on Under Pressure, with Tom's vocals.

Well, we're pleased to report that sales of the two Rhythms Del Mundo albums have now topped one million. The money raised has been used by APE to support over 175 fantastic projects from around the globe – from coral reef regeneration to Transition Networks that are actively seeking to address issues of climate change and natural disaster relief. Visit www.apeuk.org for more information about these projects.

The Rhythms Del Mundo Classics album is also being re-launched in aid of Disaster Relief to raise further funds in the wake of the natural disasters that have occurred in Asia Pacific. Click here for more info. APE will also be represented at the United Nations COP15 Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December.

Just wanted to tell thank you to TIM for the really great discovery of Grizzly Bear ! Last night we saw them in Paris (La Cigale) and despite of 3 hours waiting outside (due to the band's bus breakdown), the show was amazing ! They are nice and incredibly good ! What a magic moment. Franchement merci, des découvertes comme ça, j'en veux tous les jours ! :) See you soon Keane

Oh, the Rhythms Del Mundo with terrific TomÅ› vocals- this brings me back lots of good, a little crazy memories/ refering to the comments/ I saw on tv sad news about severe floods in the northwest of England, in Wales, in North Ireland and I am now with these people who have suffered of it and pray for them.... Love your beautiful soul and heart- "our hearts will never mislead us", lovingly :)

Posted by i_keane on 2009-11-20 23:10:30

Ok, great ! But just in case you could forget it...I'd like to remind that you were in Paris and so close to us, last year... Then, here is also another song that says "Tears on my pillow, Pain in my heart, Caused by you", my dear KEANE !

Superb news, Tom your under pressure version is completely different from Fred but also unique and fresh. I hope the album sales keep increasing. Lots of love, Regina.

Posted by Regina Brz on 2009-11-20 19:53:02

Wow! because in the store I´m working, we only sold about 11pieces! Ok, I have to admit, the price isn´t very nice: it´s 18,99€ what´s about 17GBP! The whole concern where I´m working, sold about 754pieces and well, worldwide it´s not bad I guess these times! Congratulations!
