I'm getting the following so far:

 

So he wrote it on a wall

the hollowest of halos

Is no halo at all

Television said it best....

 

....

 

say nothing at all

anytime stars and heaven align

Son don't ask

Neither how full nor empty is your glass

cling to the mast

spend your whole life living in the past

going nowhere fast

 

Ahh, now that you say that halos part, it sounds so clear!! that line after "television..." definitely starts with a word like "figures".

 

Is it "neither how full nor empty is your glass", or "neither half full nor empty is your glass"? :thinking:

I totally agree with you -- it sounds like figures something but I still can't get that full line??? :confused:

 

Hmm, I thought "neither how full" but now that you mention it "neither half" also sounds right :stunned:

LIT II and Glass of Water aren't doing much for me. Rainy Day sounds good, but Prospekt's March is the real winner. That one is just beautiful.

I thought I'd start on Life In Technicolor ii :):):)

 

Time came a-creepin'

Oh and time's a loaded gun

Every road is a _____ of life

It goes on (or "it grows old")

Time ____ can lead you home

Still it's such a beautiful ____

 

Oh love

Don't let me go

Won't you take me where the streetlights glow

I can hear it comin'

Like a serenade of sound

Now my feet won't touch the Ground

 

OoOoOOOooOOOoOoHhhHhH

I always thought it was "neither half full nor empty", because of the whole "glass half full/empty" philosophy! :confused:

 

Why do these lyrics torture me so much?! :bigcry:

wow this thing makes u rub forever... hand about to fall lol

OH MY GOD!!!! LIF ii, IS SUCH A GREAT SONG!!! I'm so excited about this EP, I'm sure it's going to be awesome....

How do I get the chance to hear the tracks in facebook....I keep rubbing the glass, and nothing happens....:P

hahaha, I managed to listen to Rainy Day!!!! :lol: ...... really nice song....I never thought it was gonna be like this when I heard the title...tought it was gonna be a slow one....

so glad the glass i s working for me now :P

God, I /love/ LiT2. I would have honestly liked this on VLV.

^^

sorry....it was thought...not tought...my mistake :P

Rainy Day literally knocked me out of my chair

 

LITii is fucking brilliant

 

Glass of Water is stunning

 

Prospekts March is just lovely

 

 

It doesn't even sound like Coldplay anymore and that's not good or bad , it just is...

 

I

 

 

CANNOT

 

 

WAIT

 

 

FOR

 

 

THIS

 

 

EP

rub slow for rainy day and LIT

rub fast for prospekts march and glass of water

 

lol and rub with your right hand for rainy day.. and with your left for prospekts march.

 

for LIT II rub while looking away.

It doesn't even sound like Coldplay anymore and that's not good or bad , it just is...

 

And that is just the way it was, and nothing could be better, and nothing ever was... ;)

 

Sorry, couldn't resist! But I do agree with you, it sounds like a completely different band... I'm not sad about that, though, because it still somehow sounds so Coldplay... Oh, I'm not making any sense :P

I'm addicted to LIT II. And it's not even the whole song. I may die when this EP comes out... :P

Same here. I love the 1:25 seconds of LIT II, it's amazing!

 

They should have kept it on the album!

I think that all of Coldplay's stuff sounds at once like Coldplay, and not like Coldplay. I think it's a progression: play each record separately, and they sound really different. But play Yellow and Clocks and Speed of Sound and Talk and Viva la Vida and Violet Hill and Lovers in Japan and (from what's been released so far) this EP and it all kind of fits.

 

Did that make any sense? :p

LOL well I can hear everything except LIT2.

...I'm not sure what I think lol, I'd have to listen a lot more before forming my opinion one way or another, but I can say glass of water is my least favorite, both live and on here...sounds a little generic for them.

^haha, thanks man :D

 

i honestly believe that LIT2 is one of the songs chris was talking about when he said they were going to release a song everyone needed to hear before they die.

 

and i wasn't excited about LIT2 until today. i thought it couldn't get any better, seriously, and i was looking forward to the new stuff that we haven't heard any of than something we'd essentially had half of. but now...it's fricking ridiculous what i think of it. i think in its entirety, LIT2 will surpass something like 99.5% of all other songs in the coldplay catalog in my book.

Why did they pull it off the album then and put the instrumental version of it instead?
