Night Train was recorded in various studios throughout the globe on Keane’s world tour for 2008’s Perfect Symmetry. The title alludes to the band’s traveling on trains between gigs, their favorite method of travel. « The idea was to chuck out a single, or at most an EP in October, » Keane vocalist Tom Chaplin told Billboard magazine. « But it turned into something more. I think we see it as a body of work that we made during touring. Just a document of different places and moods. »

A PROPOS « It’s quite dark. I think the message of the song is about not trying to get too bogged down in over-thinking stuff all the time. If you sit down for too long, you can easily make yourself depressed! I guess it’s about trying to rise above that. » (Tim, AntiMusic) |

A PROPOS This mid-tempo ’80s flavored synth-pop number is the first track Keane have ever recorded with Tim singing lead vocals.Tom told Consequence of Sound why he didn’t record the vocals for this song: « Had we gone into the studio intending to make a full album, I don’t think we would have given Tim the job of singing. But because of the way we made this record, we just ran out of time to record my vocals for it. The longer we lived with the demo vocal Tim had done for it, the more we liked it. I really love that song and love the spirit in which it came about as well. » « I think it’s a very sad and powerful song about that sense a lot of people get of clinging on to old romances. It’s a sense of nostalgia or melancholy about the past. » (Tom, Consequence of Sound) |

A PROPOS This samples the Rocky theme song, « Gonna Fly Now. » Tom explained the sample to Consequence of Sound: Tom described Keane’s collaborations with K’Naan to Billboard magazine as « songs about the human condition-time, fear, love, regret. » |
