- DAN - Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 When X&Y (album) was released Talk could have easily been my least favurite track - but now, with this video, it's starting to grow on me.

an_cat Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I have only watched it once so maybe it will grow on me .... But that was one of the worst videos i have ever seen! I realise that it was meant to be funny, and not taken seriously at all, but it was boring, and honestly, not very funny at all. i think that the videos off of this album have definitly been the worst. Fix you was boring, speed of sound was quite good but it didn't live up to the song, and now this one is just weird and boring. Dont panic and the scientist, and even god put a smile upon your face are ten times better than any of these ones! I don't feel like quoting 10 messages of people who don't understand the video, so I'll stick with just one. But seriously, what are you basing the comment that "it was the worst video you've ever seen!" on? Are you watching the video? Like actually watching it. Looking past the B-movie style to see that everything that is happening is symbolic of the meaning of the song. Think while you watch. I've tried to explain the video in a small amount of space but I can't do it justice. I could write 10 pages on it. It's brilliant. Fix You, and Speed of Sound were not good videos. Chris Martin walking around until he gets to a concert has nothing to do with the song Fix You. The guys playing in front of a giant equalizer has nothing to do with Speed of Sound. Ya, the pretty lights were entertaining for a minute, but the video had no point. This video on the other hand, is exactly what the song is about. And it's told in a quirky, fun, and extremely creative way with the B-movie feel. Outer space is the only setting that I can think of for this video, and I don't know if it would be as meaningful if it was filmed from a very serious perspective. (Chris and the guys on the international space station? Idunno.) So for those of you who dislike it, try watching it, and try to understand it. I can assure you it's very meaningful, and quite symbolic. Anton Corbjin is a creative genius. I should really right a definitive guide to understanding this video. Oh, and another thing, for those of you who were dissapointed, a month ago Corbjin said to the public, "Well, it is black and white, and slightly strange, as is often the way in my videos, I guess. It will have a certain B-movie feel to it, but I cannot say more than this for now." So, it seems to live up to exactly what he told you it was going to be. I couldn't agree with you more. :thumbsup: If only people articulated themselves as intelligently as that, on both sides, then maybe we could get a fair fan critique of this video.

an_cat Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 i love how a lot of the people who say they dont like it are like all new members hey hey hey. i am relatively new. i love the video. (i was kinda getting tired of them performing) I think what she meant was a lot of these "new members" only have one or 2 posts, and they're not defending their argument maturely. Sometimes I wonder if it's the same person... Sort of like when Coldplay canceled their shows back in September and we had this huge influx of new members all bitching about the band. I don't think she meant new members as in you, or anything. Of course, I'm speaking for someone else, but yeah. Know what I'm saying? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
