nmsv Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Very similar to the Phantom Planet - California. Remembers me from The O.C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeisotope Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Ooooh.... I really love that piano version... could someone possibly rip that into mp3? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethWhalley Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Wow, for two days after the release that isn't half bad, although I think a couple of the notes might be wrong. It's lovely but I do prefer the full instrumental thing :) Can't wait until the piano book comes out for VLV. That's one of the most exciting things about a new Coldplay album :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 wow, this is amazingly impressive for two days after the release! i wish i had a brain that could do that. i think the guitar solo sounds pretty kickass on the piano, and the whole thing is beautiful. i have to say, it sounds so much more "coldplay" when done on the piano. not just the sound of the song, but the whole melody and sound structure. if you took out the vocals of the real violet hill and played it for me, i probably would never guess that it was coldplay, or at least it would take me a while. but if you played me this, i think it would be one of my first guesses.

Cris_Santos Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I really liked these versions! Don't know about the others, but the first one was published on Tuesday! The day of the release!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonSportsTD Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 i bet eventually chris will be playing on some show by himself and he'll play a piano version of violet hill. kind of like with yellow. i think it would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookyMnstr Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm sure this is how VH started out...Chris comes over and says to the guys...what do you think of this...then each start adding their respective instruments...and we get the actual version. I think it shows what a great song it is that even stripped down it still sounds beautiful. That's what I love about Coldplay's music...it can be "simple" in a way, but always touching. I don't know how to explain it, I'm not a music person :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Ooooh.... I really love that piano version... could someone possibly rip that into mp3? Thanks! Is WAV OK?;) http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2317443#post2317443 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 i bet eventually chris will be playing on some show by himself and he'll play a piano version of violet hill. kind of like with yellow. i think it would be nice I sincerely hope so. I think I might just cry to hear that.:) I learned to chunk out the chords on Tuesday, but these guys learned it that fast with much more accuracy. I'm impressed!

Guest Hyperfried Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 That guy is amazing, bless his soul. The only thing I can't figure out is the piano breakdown at the end... Urgh. V_V Sounds great otherwise, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olipunker Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Does anybody have the whole sheet music of Violet Hill? I agree with those people saying with only one keyboard this song sounds "Coldplay"!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
