this is true

 

but i think mystery is what keeps us excited

 

and the randomness of this video and the fact that it really does look like Will is saying something creates mystery.

 

it's just fun i guess

OK this is very strange... I am rather freaked out :lol:

well Chris is goddamn gorgeous,i love him so...................................................................much...........................................................

I'm completely positive that at about the 19 second mark Will says viva la vida, and Chris spelled it out with his hands. They wouldn't just put that in if it had no meaning.

Maybe its the title of the album, in spanish? They did state that this album had spanish influences. :thinking:

well Chris is goddamn gorgeous,i love him so...................................................................much...........................................................

 

He is soooo gorgeous....more than ever.:kiss:

Hey, I must say your all freakingly great, I can't believe you actually got the meaning of what Chris was saying with his hands, I thought he was just dancing... And it does look like Will is saying the same thing.

Thank you guys.

new album name.. maybe?

 

"Vivalavida"? hahahaha

 

viva la vida is somehting more like.. "enjoy life" or "cheers for life"

 

 

 

hmmm:thinking:

I pray to GOD that is not their album title...

Same here

Maybe, like someone else suggested, the album title is "Falling Off The Edge". I could live with that.

And didn't Nick Cave record something with Johnny Cash?

 

They have a duet.

"I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"

Anyone who owns a mac knows that those pictures are taken with photo booth, one of the default mac os x apps which uses the internal iSight camera built into every new iMac, MacBook or MacBook Pro

ok i think I might have figured out some of what will is saying towards the end of the video

 

 

"falling off the e(dge?)...."

 

then it looks like he says "Fuck off"

 

then after that it looks like gibberish to me

 

i was comparing his mouth to model sheet for animating voice.

 

 

anyone else have anything?

 

 

will DEFINITELY says "fuck off" at one point...i'm hearing impaired and read lips a lot, and if i may say so myself im fairly good at it. most of the other things he says are gibberish to me; just a lot of mouth moving to make it look like he's saying something. of course i could be wrong, but i actually spent a bit of time trying to work it out and got no where :rolleyes:. i dont think theyre trying to mess with us by imbedding messages or hints on the next album; i think theyre just being their usual *adorably* crazy selves during down moments in the studio.

 

I'm completely positive that at about the 19 second mark Will says viva la vida, and Chris spelled it out with his hands. They wouldn't just put that in if it had no meaning.

 

i do, however, see the "viva la vida" thing. it looks like he's saying that quite a bit. though i think it's either a) coincidence or b)something that just popped into his head to say. however it would...make sense as an album title given the "hispanic influences" etc etc, but i REALLY REALLY hope it isnt. its just...cheesy!! it makes me cringe already. besides, they said the hispanic influences werent like, overpowering, they were underlying. so maybe they wont slap a spanish title on there as well? besides, they have always named the album after a song on the album, so i think its semi-likely theyll stick with that tradition. i dont know, but i just really dont want that to be the title.

 

but about chris spelling it out with his hands....i thought he was spelling out C-O-L-D-P-L-A-Y!! (i even went frame by frame with the video on my computer to find all the letters! god im a geek). though chris, um, kind of doesnt put the letters "C", "O" or "P" in there at all, so im probably wrong. but i thought that was pretty cool and maybe they just didnt put the pics of chris making those three letters in the final video that they posted. (besides, its really hard to make the letter "I" with your hands...so i dont think that its "viva la vida". and i just dont WANT it to be that!) but i think spelling out the word "COLDPLAY" with your hands is a really cool thing to do, even if that isnt what chris was doing.

 

Ok...Time to be detectives...

Someone get that video off of there and edit it to be in slow motion.

Surely they've left some evidence of whatever.

If I had the equipment I would do it, but I do not.

So get to work kids with editing programs.

 

if you open the video in windows moviemaker, you can go frame by frame. thats how i looked at all the letters with chriss hands and tried to glean meaning from wills gibberish. its the best way i know how to make it slower. i also found that in the first few seconds that are reallyreally fast, chris and will are goofing off with eachother and cracking up. i think its cute.

 

ok, and this is a really really long post but:

 

did anybody else notice, now or before, that guy has an earring? personally i didnt know. and its funny to me that in a 2005 interview they said they felt too it was too late now to get piercings and tattoos because theyd look ridiculous getting them in their 30's. but will AND chris now have tattoos and apparently guy got his hear pierced! interesting...

i don't have any software to slow down the video but i did notice that will holds up his fingers to show different numbers... any significance?

Yes!

 

The complete Chris's message is "VIVA LA VIDA"... ;)

 

 

-------

 

¡5, 4 , 3, 2, 1!

 

Yes!

¡5, 4 , 3, 2, 1!

 

 

oh, god, youre RIGHT.

to me, things are slanting towards "viva la vida" being our best guess for album title. though who really knows??

fooey. i even like "prospekt" and "a new finding" better than that. :confused:

 

ok, disregard everything i said in my above post about them not trying to send us cryptic messages. i think we have TWO pieces of evidence now that this means something, and i personally am now convinced that this is a very strong possiblility for album title.

even though im a bit...not thrilled with it.

Whoa! The plot thickens!

Gah, I can't wait till they actually tell us ..normally.

Surely it can't be too much longer.

 

did anybody else notice, now or before, that guy has an earring? .

 

he had it in the latin american tour too :wink:

okay after looking at the video thousands of times.....lol its clear there is some kind of message and i has to do with the letter V......all of the effects done on the guys shot end up with a V Motion.....the heads splitting and then the Hand of chris then Will yea i take back what i said earlier in the thread there is a message there

does anyone know how to create one of those moveable .GIF images from a videoclip? will starts mouthing "viva la vida" starting at 0:00:19.33 and ends around 0:00:19.93, if that helps anyone. i wish i knew how to, because i want to be sure thats what he says! this is all quite fascinating to me, as my now THREE posts show :D.

 

if only will's finger numbers spelled out the release date...:sneaky:

Ughhhh...Viva La Vida.:(

Sounds poo to me.
