My colleague asked me which concert I was planning to listen to today. [emoji38]

I gave him the choice and the winner was Glastonbury 2016. [emoji4]

      I just wanted to say, after 5 years of being part of the Coldplay fandom, first on Coldplaying, now on Coldplaying, Twitter and other platforms, a wonderful thing happened today: Coldplay followed me

      On this day exactly 5 years ago, a young and innocent person who was just getting really into Coldplay wanted to sign up on a forum called Coldplaying. Faced with the question of what to pick as a use

      Today exactly 5 years ago, I joined the Coldplaying community and I don't regret that that. To be honest, it's probably one of the best things that have happened in my life! I had never thought I woul

    Does anyone know anything more on Chris' singing oil? I've seen it in various interviews but we get nothing more than 'singing oil' :(

    Wasn't he asked about it in the Howard Stern interview (MX era)?

    I don't exactly remember what his answer was. But I think the term "singing oil" might have been brought up.

    i think i honestly associated it with a broken heart before i realized they were wings :P

    Haha that's funny :laugh4:

     

    I guess I've been too busy admiring the details to see the obvious!

    Better late than never (although it's been 2 years...) :facepalm:

    I just listened to the Ghost Stories album.

     

    While listening to O I realized that the wings on the cover resemble somehow a broken heart.

     

    Why did I never notice?

    Wow I never realized that! It's crazy I looked at it so many times and know every detail (I love the artwork so much) but I never thought of that!

    This new music channel I'm watching has good taste in music. So far I've listened to chvrches, Foo Fighters, The Killers and of course Coldplay. There's also horrible music but it's much better than the previous one I used to watch :P

    Just doing some Coldplay philosophizing recently...

     

    I think AHFOD is a perfection of the ideas in MX.

    In MX, Coldplay thought you had to travel to a fake, dystopian world in order to find happiness. But then by the time AHFOD rolls around, they realized you can find happiness on Earth, you just have to find it or create it yourself....you the people have the power to make this life a wonderful adventure!

    I saw someone with a Mylo Xyloto shirt at a restaurant near my university and though once again I was a bit shy to talk to them, I couldn't help but compliment them. It was a really cool shirt that had all the little symbols on it that represent each song on the album.

    Omg I have this one! And the sweatshirt too :)

    So I'm awake at this ungodly hour (almost 430 am) watching Coldplay videos on YouTube and I'm thinking to myself...there is no other band in this world that makes my heart burst wide open with love like they do!

    Seeing them perform makes me feel so warm and happy inside, I find myself constantly smiling and laughing as I sing along.

    How fortunate are we to have found this amazing gift? And even better, we get to share it with each other! [emoji173]

     

    Side note: if any of you haven't seen their game of thrones musical sketch, please go watch it! You won't be disappointed [emoji23]

    i would even go one step further and argue

    X&Y -> MX -> AHFOD

    not necessarily in perfecting certain ideas, but in those ideas evolving for sure

     

    (but, you know, even in AHFOD Chris has a rocketship that he wants to ride :glasses2:)

    I do agree. It makes sense. it's like MX follow up in that way.

     

    Even though I vastly prefer MX myself, to me the music seems to be more "free" and flowing. It almost seems as if these two albums meaning should be switched! Cool idea though.

    but does this mean...

    AROBTTH -> VLV -> Ghost Stories :surprised: that sort of fits, too

    and Parachutes is off on its own :P

    I am praying that they don't screw this up like Avicii in True Believer.

    man, the just Chris version of that song is so good

    i still like the actual album version but not as much :P

    What's your reasoning?

    What's your reasoning?

     

    tbh, it was mostly just that those three fit in between the other albums :P

    but... somehow i always interpret AROBTTH being a lot about death, of course not necessarily in a literal sense. GPASUYF, The Scientist, Warning Sign, A Whisper, AROBTTH, Amsterdam... and then of course b-sides like Murder :P but really i think that album is more about the tension between life and death, which is also explored for sure in VLVODAAHF and Ghost Stories as well. anyone could argue that Coldplay always explore that kind of theme in every album, but that set of three has a real grounded feeling to me, if that makes sense. X&Y, MX, AHFOD are all sort of fantastical in the way they approach their themes.

    and Parachutes... is kind of just like the basis for all of them, really. which makes perfect sense :P

    I bought a Ghost Stories CD a few days ago which means it was my first day looking at that little booklet inside (idk if that has any specific name) and of course I studied every detail. I came across this sentence and it kind of changes everything for me idk..

    The amount of quotes with impact the guys seem to collect(and create) is insane! Not that it's all unknown stuff, for example Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator speech, that's just incredibly powerful stuff

    Omg, as a fan of both EDM and Coldplay this makes me sooo excited. I love that Chris appreciates such music too.
