Viva la Vida (song) = Beautiful...?

Featured Replies

I was so excited when Violet Hill was finally released,.....but it sounds so different for Coldplay^^

It's a good song, no doubt, but it isn't so catchy like the good old coldplay songs.

 

But then I listened to Viva La Vida.........It's a frikkin' awesome song :D:D:D

Yeah it sounds very different too, but its melody is really beautiful :)

Liked it immediately at first listening, and that's what I expect from a Coldplay song :P

 

Great!

well. now i can't stop listen to it.

it must be summer hit number 1!!!

 

Agreed, this is going to be a huge success. I'll say it again: best song since Clocks.

 

I kept thinking' date=' "Man, I'm gonna start crying in a second!" So beautifully stunning! I kept waiting for Will's snare to come in but it didn't, just the bass and the crash, and it didn't need the snare at all, excellent. Were those traditional drum kit cymbals or big orchestra sort of massive cymbals? They sounded quite immense to me. Wow, what a song!!!! [/quote']

 

This is the perfect combination of Coldplay's phenomenal songwriting and Brian Eno's amazing production skills. Jo Whiley mentioned Viva la Vida only in passing on her radio show and seemed to emphasize how beautiful Reign of Love, Yes & 42 are. So we've got a few doozies to hear yet. :D

man! When did it come out? Am I the last one to always get the songs?:(

it's kind of hard to compare both, as both are awesome on their own, but violet hill has a slight edge over vlv :)

i really liked that song, very uplifting. to be honestly with violet hill i wasn't too impressed/excited for this new album, then i heard spell a rebel yell, and now viva la vida and i'm definetly more excited. it's really great to hear them expand in so many directions.

Ohh, if there are tracks more stunning than Viva then I'm going to need a box of tissues with me when I listen to the whole album!

 

My whole exam revision is a complete write-off thanks to Coldplay :P

I'm listening to this song as I type. I def. like this one a lot from the first listen but it so SO DIFFERENT from the other two! This album is gonna be all over the place with their sound.

Its so beautiful, almost heartbreaking! I love it! I cant believe we've already gotten 3 NEW songs!! wow!!

Tanya, is your avatar a picture of poppy fields by any chance?

I know.. I want more hahaha:lol:

I retract what I said about Life Processes now. This has the makings of album of the year already. Absolutely brilliant song, this.

I love it :bigcry:

Just got Viva La Vida!!!! I love it. Feel guilty that i got it tho wantd to w8 4 the album *sigh*. But the song is beautiful!!!! C'est tres magnifique!!!!

I feel guilty to clarice lol, I wanted to wait. But I'll kepe my listening to it down to a minimum, until the album is released!

It seems that everyone is liking this song so far.. good to hear 'cause I also love it but I like the other two as well

I don't like a spell a rebel yell.

 

it sounds rushed. it hasn't been mixed properly,

and the drums are all processed beats, probably not having will's hands on it at all.

 

I like the chorus lyrics.

but it just sounds too rushed.

 

probably why it's not on the album :lol:

But we are talking about Viva La Vida not A spell A Rebel Yell though...

this is why i'm a coldplay fan.

this is exactly why i'm a coldplay fan.

you can just feel the love in their songs.

and i mean it.

i felt it again listening to "Viva La Vida".

love.

just love.

But we are talking about Viva La Vida not A spell A Rebel Yell though...

 

no i know, but you mentioned it and it just sparked me into typing action. lol.

 

anyways, I think VLV is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than violet hill,

 

and I adore the latter.

 

so excited about the album,

 

I've had VLV on repeat.

 

I should stop before I hate it :laugh3:

Violet Hill=Coldplay

Viva La Vida= Chris Martin? hmm...

 

I'm going to have to brew on this one for a while

(please don't hate me or kill me...thanks)

^ what do you mean?

I dunno yet

 

like I said..I'm going to have to let this brew in my head for a bit.

I love the lyrics...but something is not right with me right now.
