Thanks for posting it! :kiss:

So what I hear is that Chris went on record in interviews saying "This was the best song Coldplay had written, and that he shouldn't of given it up", and then Rove mention's that to Nat, and she makes it out like it is just good PR, so it could be Chris is hyping it up in the press, so people will pay attention to her new album, that's what I got from it. I now know in my own little mind, think Chris wouldn't have given away something "He" thought was his best work, it' was just him hyping her CD.

What's not to say they cover the songs for future b-sides (like gravity)

I completely forgot to watch Rove.

Had a feeling she might talk about Chris since she kept mentioning him in newspaper articles in Australia.

I think Natalie was just joking when she said that. It is a fantastic song, so I do think Chris really meant it because he kept repeating it in many interviews.

Yeah, from interviews I've read he wrote it specifically for her, for her album which is why he gave it to her. He's not just gonna go "actually I like it better you can't have it" :P He's being honest when he says it's the best Coldplay song, it's just that he wrote it for her.

 

Plus I think lyrically speaking Chris wouldn't release it as it would certainly fuel the C&G divorce rumours.

Does anyone know the lyrics? I can't understand a word of it from the Youtube vid, except the ooohs:confused:

Obviously he's written it in the third person, after listening to the songs on her record, but taken as a stand alone song it would get the gossip rags talking :rolleyes:

 

So long, I've been waiting to sing this song,

Not sure, if it's worth it anymore,

Worth it anymore...

 

People always ask about you

People always want to talk about you

Sometimes when I sleep I think about you

With your new someone...

 

But oh didn't we have fun?

I know it hurts like hell when

you can't be with someone

 

Try, ever stop to wonder why?

Oh, I just hope you're happy now

Hope you're happy now

 

People always ask about you

People always want to talk about you

Sometimes when I sleep I think about you

With your new someone...

 

But oh didn't we have fun?

I know it hurts like hell when

you can't be with someone

 

Didn't we have fun?

I know it hurts like hell

but I don't want to forget

 

I don't want to forget...

Thanks for the lyrics, some Rag will get hold of it sooner or later and start some crap.:dozey:

Looking at the Lyrics - no hope in hell that Coldplay would have released that song...those lycris are so not coldplay lycris..if you know what I mean.

Plus Chris can give his songs to whomever he wants to give them to quite honestly.

 

P.

You know, she almost sounds jealous.

 

Yes I reckon she has the hots for Chris (get in line behind all of us, lol) there's quite a few nasty comments about Gywnnie. Silly cow...she should get a real job (lainey, that is)

  • 4 weeks later...

Want is one of three songs on the new album co-written with Chris Martin of Coldplay.

 

"I became a total fan-girl when I went to see their first shows," grins Natalie. "I'd be down the front, and just blush and go 'Er, hiya!' when I'd meet them afterwards.

 

"Chris and I became mates, but I hadn't seen him for years when I got a call from my manager saying he'd written two songs - Lukas and Fun - for me.

 

"They were meant for Coldplay, but Chris thought they were better for a woman to sing. Why he chose me, I've no idea. I didn't ask him in case he started thinking about it too much and changed his mind.

 

She even got him to help with her new single. "I'd already written Want but I couldn't get the chorus right. I didn't want to beg Chris for help, but I ended up saying to him, 'Oh, please! You must help me fix this!'

 

"He's like a mad professor - you can see the sparks fly out of Chris' head when he starts thinking about songs. Within a couple of hours, he'd made it perfect."

Album has been delayed in the UK, but is going ahead with the Australian release in a few weeks.

Her new album's been leaked online... Naturally, I listened to Lukas and Fun first... :P The songs are pretty. :)

 

You can kinda tell Lukas is a Coldplay song by the... (forgive me if I get the musical term wrong, I have no background in drum playing) off-beatness of the drum beat... I don't know, but it's very Viva-era Coldplayesque.

Oooh I want to hear them. Where did you find it?

Link link now! I am dying to listen to Chris´songs!

Erm...well definitely not in here.

 

Could you PM it to me? :shy:

THX a bunch Pai! Apperently there are not free slots for download right now, but I will keep trying! :)

could one of you guys be kind enough to pm me as well? i would greatly appreciate it!!

Ok I just heard Lukas.Its is really good!!You can tell it is a Coldplay song.Definately from the Viva era as you can hear the Viva sounds in it.I wonder if it is the boys actually playing on the recording.But either way it sounds amazing!!Makes me wonder how it would have sounded with Chris singing.But Natalie sounds amazing on it!!
