busybeeburns Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 If not, check it out, and then compare this part of the song with Strawberry Swing: David Bowie: I was walking down the High Street, when I heard footsteps behind me Chris Martin: I remember, we were walking up to strawberry swing Very similar :stunned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck kottke Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Ian, interesting you should mention Bowie - I had for some strange reason been thinking for the past day how similar Coldplay's songs and style are to Bowie's - especially Bowie's delving into some deep subjects with a kind of detached presence, like Golden Years' "..run from the shadows.." and Coldplay's "little white shadows".. etc. Strange how we could be operating on the same wavelength! It must be seasonal memory timing or something like that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
