Violet Hill= Meant for Live Performances

Featured Replies

Someone has probably already mentioned this already, but I wanted to bring it up in a thread.

 

One of my initial reactions when i first heard this song at 7 on Radio 1 was that this song was made for live performances, especially large venues. I can't really explain it, but something about the guitar and heavy bass make me think so. Who agrees?

I definitely agree... it almost sounds like it wants to be played at 50x its normal volume.

I was thinking the same thing. They'll probably open their shows wth it like they did with Square 1. And it will absolutely shake the arena! I think it may even be better live than on the album because it's meant for that.

I see what you mean. I remember reading in Q (I think) a few months back that the album was build around the idea of playing it live.

LMAO @ Meant for Live Performances

Sigh another evening of you winding others up for your own entertainment...get a girlfriend/boyfriend perhaps? Or a couple of friends?

 

Stop pulling our pigtails cos you secretly love us and go talk to some real people ;)

Jonny's solo in the middle of VH is going to sound epic live.

yes. the best solo in the music history.

YAWN

Another thread ruined. Sigh.

 

IF a thread is not full of "oh my god" "oh my gosh" "i can't believe it" it's ruined ?

Great song :D would sound even better live as you said. Allthough I loved speed of sound, it wasnt that great live and didnt really have an edge to it, sounded better on radio :P Looking foward to when they first play it live!

I cant wait to hear this one live, Its Definatly a song that can be "Sung from the rafters".

 

Hey My names Jesse and im New. This was my first post. Ive been with Coldplay sence 2006. :)

Not all threads need to be full of smart-arse remarks, either.

yeah, deffinently

was listening to it on whileys show

and i was thinking

the last record suffered about 10% because they were concentrating on how it would sound live

and it appears with this first track

the problem may have reappeared

Aww the truth hurts then eh? Chin up, cheer up, you'll never get a girlfriend if you're a grump

you are gay,stfu!

^^well that was kind of funny...maybe a sense of humor in there somewhere??:thinking:

So anyway, back to the topic on hand (Please?).

Does anyone think "Life In Technicolor" will still be played live, even though it is said to only be an instrumental? I'm just think, because it opens the album, it should be epic as well.

It could be the opening music, just before they come on, played into the auditorium maybe?
