January 17, 200620 yr Hey, lovely Coldplay-Fans! I have a problem: I'm planning to get me an iPod nano and the Apple people are offering to engrave (for free!) a text in the iPod. Well, I suddenly thought of a Coldplay-lyrics-part and then I thought of one of my favourites: "I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war / If you cann tell me something worth, fighting for" But the problem is, it's limited to 2x23 characters and my quote unfortunately is too long for it :/ I looked for some other lyric-snippets, but I am very sure, that many users around here are soooooo good into Coldplay (way better than I), that they can tell me the best quote fitting on an iPod. :) There's just one rule: 2x23 characters maximum (space and other special chars count, too!) I'd be soooo fucking grateful if I'll find the quote-of-choice here, so please, please support me, lovely fellow fans :) Thanks so much in advance!
January 17, 200620 yr Author well, that's maybe a little too common for my taste! But thank you anyway for your suggestion :)
January 17, 200620 yr I gotta few different ones there... :) Nobody said it was easy But time is on your side It's on your side now You came along And you cut me loose Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones Do you feel like a puzzle You can’t find your missing piece You and me are floating on a tidal wave My song is love Love to the loveless shown You don’t have to be on your own All you ever wanted to be Living in perfect symmetry If somebody made it Someone will mess it up
January 17, 200620 yr If it was mine (they didnt offer me free engraving :angry: , back in the day :lol: when they 1st came out :rolleyes: ) I would simply get 'X&Y'. I think it would look pretty cool, and not too crowded. :)
January 17, 200620 yr Author crazyduckette, thank you very much for your effort, especially I love the Twisted Logic one! :) But I think this stupid restriction is too much limiting for a proper use of lyrics :/ And somehow I love steph's idea! It's minimalistic but still significant to every coldplay-fan... kind of perfect for a coldplay-loving iPod-owner... I hop you don't mind me stealing your idea, steph? :confused:
January 17, 200620 yr thats ok! Might seem a bit crowded with those anyway. I do like "nobody said it was easy" I like to think of that quote a lot in my life lol :) X&Y is a good one..minimalistic...nice idea :)
January 17, 200620 yr Author Aaah, that's great, thank you so much! :blush: I just ordered it... can't wait to hold it in my hands! :)
January 19, 200620 yr winnie, an engraving on the ipod!!! i want that!! you know what you should get, Coldplay: Chris, Guy, Jonny, Will-A band of geniuses, and nothing else compares.... :)
January 19, 200620 yr "give me love over this" I love that line! :heart: (cunt No fair that you get your iPod engraved! :lol: :lol:)
January 19, 200620 yr ^ i know!!! how about "am i part of the cure, or am part of the disease" :D i love that line!!!
January 20, 200620 yr how about: "Nothing matters, except life and the love you make"... i love that line... "life is for living" "we never change"
January 20, 200620 yr I like your decision for x&y, felix! if I had to decide, I'd probably go for 'nothing else compares'. ;)
January 20, 200620 yr I think you made a good decision with "X&Y" :) Mine arrived just on Wednesday, with "tell me your own politik" engraved
January 20, 200620 yr he he ... that's cool ... but first i need money to get an iPod. i think would've wpicked something like Listen to more Coldplay or You came along And you cut me loose (<------love that one) or I'm Chris Martin's daughter since it is from apple ... :D that was a fuckin bad joke, wasn't it? :P :rolleyes:
January 20, 200620 yr Author Oh boy... probable shipment date: 27.01.06 - caaaaan't fucking wait :lol: That other suggestions are very nice, as well! Especially the politk one! Nice and uniqe choice :) Oh, and I'll of course post a pic of it :-)
