rule13 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I'm spanish and I've listened this song like hundreds of times... Why do they say "I spent the night with the queen of Spain" at 1:50? I don't have any problems with that but if any monarchy fan discover that, they could be in trouble:D Lovely song, and funny for me and the spanish coldplayers!

Cobalt Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 But Rainy Day is not about XIX century's events and now the Queen of Spain looks like this: I think that's even more of a reason for this to not be the correct lyric (no offenses) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marina_ Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 i read somewhere that gwyneth did a sort of reality-documentary in spain ("Spain - On The Road Again") and then people started to call her "queen of spain"...but i'm not sure of my source :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Final Track Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Then there was rain I spent the night with the queen of Spain My lonely little heart well it broke again Time so vicious The deeper that the knife goes in The more you win You end up with less than where you begin The deeper that the knife goes in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calanon Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I love the song and I listen to alot, but I've never noticed this before. Now that you've pointed it out it feels obvious. Strange of Coldplay to put lyrics like that. :shocked2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirstenEO Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I think Mari's probably right and that the inspriation for this came from Gwyneth... She was an exchange student in Spain, wasn't she? And she's an adopted daughter of queen Talavera of Spain. Perhaps the idea came from that influence and then just took off in the traditional odd/oblique/hey-that-sounds-good-let's-throw-that-in Coldplay direction.
