    Evening, Don't suppose anyone would happen to have tabbed (or be able to tab) Jonny's guitar bit at the end of life is for living? Cheers!

    Hello, does anyone know Jonny's parts in Hurts Like Heaven? I would love to learn the solo mainly, but it would be great if we could tab out the whole song! Thanks. :)

    Hi! This is my tutorial for Christmas Lights. I hope you all enjoy it especially Blake who asked mo to do it. Well good luck in learning ^^ This is the first part. It's focused on intro and the main riff/verse.

    Hey, I'm new here :) I'm interested in learning how to play a guitar, but I really want to personalise my guitar and make it my own, so I thought of painting it in the style of the single covers from Viva la Vida, such as Life In Technicolor II, Violet Hill etc. Ergo lots of splashes and patches of paint across the guitar with the lyrics to Coldplay songs also painted on. What I'd like to know is if there's anything I need to note before I attempt to do so. For example, would I be required to sand down the body of the guitar to ensure that the paint sticks? Also, will painting it affect the sound produced by the guitar? Thanks for all the help :D

    Greetings again! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WITH WEDDING BELLS!! Now I found this tutorial on youtube for Wedding Bells, it doesnt sound much like the actual version Chris plays. Maybe I have have to invert a few chords but it still doesnt sound right; however the basic structure is alright: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3R5qELEF_I&feature=related]‪Wedding Bells - Coldplay - Tutorial‬‏ - YouTube[/ame]

    Hey guys, I have what seems to be a simple question... Does anyone know how to play the short piano riff the Chris does over the second time he sings "Revolutionaries wait, for my head on a silver plate"? If not, does anyone know of a tutorial that includes it, because I've been looking all day and have yet to find one. This would be very helpful to me as it's one of my bands most craved cover songs, and we need to get it spot on :laugh3:

  13. So you guys are all professionals it seems like. You guys have fancy equipment and stuff and that's how you get such great sounding songs. But I don't, and I am okay with it sounding crappy. Surprisingly, Guitar Hero USB microphones aren't THAT bad. I am a perfectionist when it comes to sound quality and the quality of these GH Mics aren't really that bad. This is what I have: 3 Guitar Hero Microphones 1 Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser Mic <- This guy is a man. People talk about Condenser Mics and Dynamic Mics and I have no idea what the difference is. Are the GH mics dynamic or condenser you think? And what drums should be recorded with Dynamic mics …

  15. I'M TRYING TO IMPRESS A GIRL BUT I DONT THINK SHE LIKES ME AND I WROTE HER A SONG SO SHOULD I MAKE AN ELABORATE MUSIC VIDEO AND PRESENT IT TO HER IN A THEATRE OR JUST RUN AWAY TO PERTH Just kidding, I'm older than that. (Most days, anyway.) But hopefully it got your attention. My Presonus Bluetube finally arrived in the mail so I'm considering doing some youtube covers now that I can generate some decent sound. I'm running guitar+mic through a behringer mixer into my macbook and then processing the signal with Reason+Record, so (outside of acoustic treatment) the audio quality won't be a problem. (Can't say the same for my cold-affected voice, but time heals most…

Besides, I cant strip Chris's vocals out with the programs I have: Adobe: Audition, Aftereffects, Premier and Sony Vegas.

    First off, as a Guitarist and Pianist, you can play this song on both using these chords, I figured them out watching the new video on amazon. and they're, to my knowledge, very close to the song. Here are the chords from the amazon video (which are in a different key to the chords in the actual acoustic song for some reason) Try messing about with it, using capo's, or whatever. Tuning: EDGBe Chords used: From Left to right, Low E, to High e G - 320033 D/F# - 2x0232 * play the F# note and mute the A string on with your thumb.

    Hello everybody! I am planing to start playing some awesome songs, especially Coldplay, and I would like to write them myself on a piano music sheet. The only problem is that doing that on paper is almost suicidal, so I've decided to ask you - the awesome Coldplaying community - to tell me a simple computer program (and link) that is able to do that. Thank you for reading and replying to this. See you soon, At High Speed.
