that's the sound of me laughing

British rockers Keane are devastated their chances of getting to number one in the UK album charts later this month have been jeopardized by an iTunes blunder. The band's second album may not reach the top spot because the online music store accidentally put Under the Iron Sea on sale on their Belgium site last Tuesday - two weeks ahead of the official release.

Demand for the follow up to the group's hit debut record Hopes and Fears was so high the site crashed within 24 hours. "The risk is that if the album is already out there, there will not be as significant a demand on June 12," said a source close to the band.

"As you can imagine the band are not very happy and would like to know who made the mistake."
