June 5, 200521 yr listened to one and nobody helps telling me if it's the old or the new one. :angry:
June 5, 200521 yr Author listened to one and nobody helps telling me if it's the old or the new one. :angry: if the lyrics start with: "Under the great North star, trying to work out where you are" then it's the old (leaked) version... if not, it's the new one..... (the album one)
June 5, 200521 yr the leaked version is superior. it was the original version of the song and Martin intended for it to be on the album. The bridge and guitar eruption on the leaked version would have been the most powerful moment on X&Y. I don't know why he had to change it that much after it was leaked anyway. I guess he was pissed off or thought it would hurt sales if they kept it and released it as a single since it was already out. What do you guys think?

I too fell for the leaked talk but now the album version is my favorite. The richness of the production does lend itself to a better version. Coldplay scrapped all of the songs they laid down in early 2004, Talk had to be part of that. When they came back to work with the new producer that's when they decided to tweak talk into the version it is now. Evidently there are more than the 2 versions. Either way, both versions are classic.
June 6, 200521 yr I haven't heard the new version yet (since I didn't download the album), but from reading the lyrics, I think I like the old lyrics a bit better. But, we'll see once I heard the song.
June 6, 200521 yr I can't vote im torn i loved I MEAN LOVED the leaked version i cried 1st time i heard it...im not kidding (of course..it was the 1st new cp material I'd heard in you know...3 years or whatever...so) but the album version is slowly growing on me
June 6, 200521 yr leaked version is better, seems to flow a lot bettter and catchier...im dissapointed it isn't going to be on the album :confused:
June 7, 200521 yr I LOVE the leaked version - I think that if they would have just left the lyrics alone then the song itself would have turned out fine. The "leaked" lyrics flow sooo well with the music and the album version sounds a little forced and unnatural. The album version is a classic example of something that was done right the first time, second guessed, and unnecessarily rewritten in the search for perfection. I only hope that the leaked version might get released as a b-side/demo/alternate version on a future single. **crosses fingers**
June 7, 200521 yr i really am not sure which one i enjoy more. i think the leaked version had better lyrics and sound for the verses, but the chorus of the album version is undeniably addicting. it's a total toss-up.
June 12, 200521 yr At first I like the leaked one more,...but after I heard the one on album for so many time, i like it more now. The album one is more beautiful especially at the end... :o

June 18, 200521 yr I prefer the leaked version. The newer has acooler guitar riff in the middle right before the end chorus, but I feel like the album version is "too slow" so to say. It wants to go somewhere but doesn't really until the end and then you've waited so long... Or I'm just used to the leaked one. ;)
June 21, 200521 yr I LOVED the leaked version better!!! still cant get the album version to grow on me although the last part in the album version is the same as the leaked , and my favorite part , lol. I wish they would have put it on the album. :cry:
