there are sooooo many, it would be ridiculous for me to list. but lately, i really LOVE the lyrics to prospekts march/poppyfields:D

All of Life in Technicolor ii, Swallowed in the Sea, Yellow, um...every song they've ever made? Okay, but one of my favorites is definitely

"If you hear him coming won't you say for me...that I just don't want to go." Death Will Never Conquer, baby.

from viva la vida:

"Just a puppet on a lonely string, Oh who would ever want to be king"

 

from reign of love:

"Reign of love I can’t let go, To the sea I offer, This heavy load"

"How I wish I’d spoken up, Or we’d be carried In the Reign of Love"

 

from cemeteries of london:

"God is in the houses and god is in my head, And all the cemeteries in London, I see god come in my garden but I don’t know what he said, For my heart it wasn’t open, Not open"

 

from green eyes:

"I came here with a load, And it feels so much lighter now I met you, And honey you should know, That I could never go on without you"

most recently I gotta say that "Gravity, release me, and don't ever hold me down, now my feet won't touch the ground" is one of my favs...

I remember a fan shouting to Chris Martin once "I love you Chris" and he replied "No you don't, I'm a twat".

 

Classic.

 

sorry my ignorance, but what does twat means?

How about "For you i'd bleed myself dry.." a classic!

 

or some "And the spies came out of every corner, and your feeling so bad cus you know, that those spies hide out in every corner, but you cant touch them no- cus their just spies"

 

maybe a little "what good is it to live with nothing left to give, not loving all you see, the streets your walking on, a thousand houses long...well thats where i belong and you belong with me- not swallowed in the sea"

 

perhaps some..."My love tell me your own politik open up your eyes and give me love over, love over, love over this.."

 

"O the way that gravity pulls on you and me"

 

those are just a few i am really feeling right now..but all of their songs are bril.

I've never ever gotten what this means!!:huh2::embarassed:

Birds flying from the underground??? Like...what, bats in caves, or in a subway LoL? I know I'm thinking about it too literally, but what's the metaphor???:dunce2:

 

If you could see it, THEN you'd understand. >.>

<.<

 

Anyway, for me it's definitely Strawberry Swing:

 

"People leaving all the time

Inside a perfectly straight line

Don't you wanna curve away

It's such

It's such a perfect day

It's such a perfect day

 

Now the sky could be blue

I don't mind

Without you

It's a waste of time"

 

Lovely :)

We can't be bigger, but we can be better (Chris Martin) :D:P

I like these

 

honey

All the movements you're starting to make

See me crumble and fall on my face

And I know the mistakes that I made

See it all disappear without a trace

And they call as they beckon you on

They say start as you mean to go on

here are some more i absolutely love. there's just so many.

 

"and i'm on fire, for you, clearly." a message.

 

"you go backwards, again, you go forwards again." twisted logic.

 

"your guess is as good as mine...it's as good as mine... it's as good as mine... it's as good as mine!!" god put a smile upon your face.

 

"i'm tired, i can't play my part." help is around the corner.

 

"oh what good is it to live with nothing left to give? forget but not forgive, not loving all you see." swallowed in the sea.

 

"i could write a song, a hundred miles long, well that's where i belong... and you belong with me." swallowed in the sea.

 

"lovers, keep on the road you're on. runners, until the race is run. soldiers, you've got to soldier on. sometimes even the right is wrong." lovers in japan.

 

"but i have, no doubt, one day we're gonna get out." lovers in japan.

 

"questions of science, science and progress, that not speak as loud as my heart." the scientist.

 

"if i'd, if i'd only waited. i'd not be stuck here in this hole." amsterdam.

 

"stuck on the end, of this ball and chain. i'm on my way back down now. stood on the bridge, tied to the noose, stick to the stomach. you can say watcha mean, but it won't change a thing, i'm sick of the secrets. stood on the edge, tied to the noose, but you came along and you cut me loose." amsterdam.

 

ahh there's so many more!!

 

but i'm going to stop now before i write down every word they've ever sang. :P

sorry my ignorance, but what does twat means?

 

Well, twat can be a very rude word for ladies 'bits', but usually it just means a stupid person, or sometimes a nasty, mean person.

 

from Wikipedia:

 

Although sometimes used as a reference to the female genitalia, the word twat is more often used in various other ways:

 

* As a derogatory insult, a pejorative - 'you twat!'

* A fool, synonymous with the word twit - 'You are a real twat and a half' (often used in the UK)[3]

* To express annoyance - 'I caught my twatting knackers in it!'

* To hit something (or someone) hard or violently - 'I twatted him one'

* In its past participle form, to be drunk or otherwise intoxicated - 'Let's get twatted'

* A word to call someone by - 'Get your twat out'

 

 

Chris just means he's a prat and nothing special - in his usual self derogatory way ;)

The whole of Politik. Never in a million years will they top that song for me. It means the most to me.

 

how truth!!!

 

"give me love over, love over, thiiiis , I " *sigh*

 

"just because i'm losing doesn't mean i'm lost"

 

"and i love you please come home"

 

"why things dpn't always turn out as you plan"

 

and,

 

of course clocks

"am i a part of the cure or am i a part of the disease"

I like this lyric...

 

You see the world in black and white

No colour or light

You think you'll never get it right

But you're wrong... you might

 

“Some people are into bondage... and some people are into crossdressing... and some people are into Coldplay. It's okay, I don't mind being a fetish.” - Chris

 

...and after all the X&Y promo/touring..“It's going to be a few years before you see us again. People are fed up with us, and so are we.” :lol:

 

“Some people are into bondage... and some people are into crossdressing... and some people are into Coldplay. It's okay, I don't mind being a fetish.” - Chris

 

...and after all the X&Y promo/touring..“It's going to be a few years before you see us again. People are fed up with us, and so are we.” :lol:

 

I'd never seen those before :D Chris cracks me up :lol:

 

I just bought Phil O'Brien's Coldplay biography 'Look At The Stars', and in it there's a lovely black and white picture of Guy playing his bass and the caption next to it says "He keeps his legs spread and plays from the hip: bassist Guy Berryman is the band's closest soul brother." It made me smile :D

"He keeps his legs spread and plays from the hip: ."

 

:dead:

 

:D

:dead:

 

:D

 

Oh, I know :wink3: :lol:

So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war... if you can tell me something worth fighting for

This is probably my fav line of all time, but coldpay has too many more that won't fit on the song

 

 

and

 

 

God gave you music of the arcade fire!

haha good job martin

my fave is:

Swimmin' on a sea of faces

tired of the human races, oh

An answer now is what I need White Shadows(love it) :) :)

I see it in the new sun rising

See it break on your horizon, oh

Come on love, stay with me

:dead:

 

:D

 

omg!! i have never heard that one!! OMFG!! HOT!! its going in my sig!!!:laugh3::D:lol::sneaky::wink3:

My favorite lines are in my signature:

 

-Just because I'm losing doesn't mean I'm lost!

 

-But if you never try you'll never know

Just what you're worth.

 

-I was just guessing at numbers and figures

Pulling the puzzles apart.

Questions of science, science and progress

Don't speak as loud as my heart.

 

-Look at the stars

Look how then shine for you

And everything you do.

 

I also really like the whole Fix You and Lost!... and Politik...

I don't know, I can't really choose, every CP song is great (duh!) :lol:

my other...

 

My other favorite qoute is from a live preformance of "Yellow"

 

"There's no need to be sitting during this song....you all stand we'll buy you some Ice cream..."

I don't even know where to begin basically every single song they have ever written EVER.

Personal favourite at the moment are Amsterdam and Warning Sign

wow..

It's absolutely the same as I think about..

 

*i'm sorry if my english is bad.. :P

i'm always fascinated with chris and his way of seeing things in life... i have to say i love this line in a recent interview: "Every day I wake up and think, 'Ok, today we've got to really prove ourselves. We've got to justify where we are.'"

 

seriously, coldplay is so successful and they still think that way. that just blew me away.
