victaniac Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Embrace definitely has the advantage here, but I still like Coldplay's version. Embrace did nothing to make that songs theirs. Didn't change a verse or a chord, teh guy sings it the exact same way Chris did. If Coldplay had a studio of Gravity, Embrace's wouldn't even compare. I prefer Coldplay's. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevemah Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 i love the song but i think i definetly suits embrace more that coldplay. I like the the way embracehave recorded it. I do like the solo piano version of it too but it really does sound like an embrance song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentleparachute Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 i love the song but i think i definetly suits embrace more that coldplay. I like the the way embracehave recorded it. I do like the solo piano version of it too but it really does sound like an embrance song I agree. Embrace have given a whole new meaning to the song the way they played it. The song wouldn't have the slight dream-like feel to it if Coldplay recorded it the way Chris sang it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badlydrawngirl Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 i really don't like embrace's version it's so lacking in emotion, unlike chris' voice when he sang it :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
°°°Morning°Glory°°° Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 What a question. I think Embrace make a boring song out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green eyes88 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 to me Embrace's version sounds like there's no emotion in it at all... coldplay's version makes me feel so much... like some songs do. And i feel like Embrace sort of ruined it... i think that since it's live it sounds really real- but i would cut out the audience. oh and the sound really is very low, i get really startled if i forget to turn the volume back down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.*.+green_eyes+.*. Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 i really don't like embrace's version it's so lacking in emotion, unlike chris' voice when he sang it :confused: I agree, I don't like Embrace's version at all it has no emotion and his voice doesn't make Gravity as powerful and meaningful as Coldplay does.

Samantha Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 To be honest i dont think embrace have changed it at all...They sing it the same way, theres not one note that is different....even chris has said this, that embrace didnt want to change a thing. But i do feel, being a coldplay fan that this song is sung and performed with more life to it by coldplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest howyousawtheworld Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Epic bump!! I was listening to both recently and while I ultimately prefer Coldplay's version I still have time and respect for Embrace's version. Embrace's is a lot more mainstream but Coldplay's is certainly deeper and dare I say it darker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squibby92 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 much prefer Embraces version, I think Coldplays version is boring to be honest and too dark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
