Somewhere only we now

"Somewhere Only We Know" is a song by the British band Keane. Originally recorded in the key of A major, it was released as a single in 2004 and later included on their debut album "Hopes and Fears." The song was written by Tim Rice-Oxley, the band's pianist and main songwriter, with contributions from lead vocalist Tom Chaplin and drummer Richard Hughes. "Somewhere Only We Know" became a breakthrough hit for Keane, reaching the top 10 in several countries and receiving widespread acclaim. The song's gentle piano-driven melody, accompanied by emotive vocals, captures a nostalgia-infused atmosphere, touching upon themes of escapism and finding solace in a secret place.
