swallowedinamessage Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 does anyone know what the video for Fix You will be like? Any ideas for what it could be like ... can't imagine it being like Clocks or Speed Of Sound more like The Scientist video... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Justine* Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I don't think there is any information relating to a new video yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man ray kind o f sky Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 You mean, will the next video just be a pretty advertisement trying to sell the album on the band's sex appeal, like Clocks and Speed of Sound and God Put a Smile on Your Face, or will it be an actual artistic video like all their videos from before that? How does everyone know Fix You is the next single anyway... it would be a good single but I think they should go for White Shadows next, because the first single was a piano song. White Shadows is basically a U2 ripoff, but it's so much better than what U2 is doing these days. If they want to be the biggest rock band in the world, they release White Shadows. If they keep releasing only the slow ballad singles they'll completely lose any rock audience. Square One would be good too, actually, because it's both a slow ballad and a rocker. With a little editing for time, I predict that would be a massive hit, maybe the biggest they've ever had. It's like "Politik" but a bit more tamed for radio. Anyone can relate to the lyrics.

*Justine* Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 How does everyone know Fix You is the next single anyway... Well for one thing, here it said so: http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:fRLsAs9mmgcJ:www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7935073/site/newsweek/+coldplay%27s+next+single&hl=en&start=7 "Both are lovely, but "Fix You," which is slated to be the second single, is the band's most elementally moving song since their breakthrough hit "Yellow."

Black Rose Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 A simple video will focus on the song. A complex video will draw people away from the song into watching the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaisin Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 yeah but a live video can also be special... remember the live 2003 dvd??? the way they shot "See you soon" was beautiful even though it was live, i'd love it if they shot "Fix you" like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gentleparachute Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 It's time they stopped doing "live performances" videos :rolleyes: They have so much more artistically than that... Remember Trouble (both versions were beautiful)? One or two concert-based vids were a nice change but they haven't had a proper video with a "storyline" since The Scientist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
