sa_spurs_tx Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I know we are all mixed up in the VLV craze but I was driving around today and heard the song on a local radio station.. I was thinking "what the hell"?? Has anyone else had their radio stations play this version of the song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleluvscp Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I haven't heard it on radio but one of my friends, who is nowhere near a Coldplay fan, had it in some random burnt cd :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffire Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 The alt version of Talk is better in some ways from the album version. I much prefer the lyrics and intro guitar work in it, but I think I still prefer the Jonny solo in the album version better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svennn Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 this was surely the demo version. this version wasn't supposed to be released or aired, but it found it way out of the studio. since the version is spread over the internet a few people have it, maybe also this radio station.

sa_spurs_tx Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yeah, I like the bass beat of the Alt. versions better..it kind of reminds me of the beat of "I Ran Away". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svennn Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 would be much easier to know which song you mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivanair Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I'd email it to you but I'm at work right now. IMO the version cut from X&Y is >>> the version that made it in....but I'm not complaining because we can enjoy them both! Did you check the multimedia section?

shivanair Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 would be much easier to know which song you mean Think he means the version of talk that got leaked before X&Y was released, but got cut from the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berrywoman Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 if I'm n ot mistaken... thats the 1st version of Talk that was leaked back when X&Y was about to be released. I think its an ok version, but the album version is better. lyrically at least... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooseaka Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 If you are referring to the version that was released about two months before X&Y, that might be one of my top five favorite Coldplay songs ever. It's got a much better uptempo drum beat, bass line and lyrics, and probably the best bridge that Chris ever wrote. You can tell the difference because the Chorus of the unreleased Talk is the same line as the end of the album version ("So you don't know where you're going but you want to talk"). If you haven't heard this song, it's definitely worth seeking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sa_spurs_tx Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 Sorry, I should have been more specific, but yes it's the version that was leaked before the album's final cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
