Hmmm... When 'Christmas Lights' piano preview version came out some time ago in '60 Minutes' I was really amazed. Now when I listen to yesterday released preview I noticed that the melody is slightly diferent, so now it's even more similar to Auld Lang Syne. But the reference to this well know british song, often sung for start of the New Year, is understandable :). (?)

*deep breath* OK, if anyone's waiting for the video to hear any details about it, then don't click the spoiler.

 

(I hope I'm not breaking the law...but the contract only pertained to the boat, oui? Any passer-by could see details of the shoot :uhoh:)

 

 

 

It's almost definitely a completely different piano because the keys are rainbow colored :wideeyed: :wacky:. What I believe will be the opening shot of the video will show that clearly :dance:.

 

I'm also not sure if it's a real, working piano at all because it had to change position very quickly several times on the stage, and all these techies had to push it to the right place while Chris does something very cool-looking that I won't give away...so it might be like a mock-up to make it lighter and easier to move around.

 

 

Can't wait to see it!

 

In 24 short hours, guess what I'll be listening to? :D

 

That's right. I'll be listening to B-roll footage at my work while being upset that I can't listen to Christmas Lights for another few hours when I get finally back from work while everyone else is listening to it. :dozey:

 

Same here, English class from 8pm gmt till 10pm gmt :(

I have forty minutes time after school to run home and be ready for the release! :awesome: :lol:

 

Good thing it only takes me like 5 minutes to get home from school lol

 

I'm getting up at 6am local time so I can download it when it arrives at 6.30. My parents refuse to believe it, especially 'cos I'm on holidays now. But I'll show them. I'll show them.

This clip encompasses my favorite chunk of lyrics :dance:

 

 

 

Oh Christmas lights light up the street

Light up the fire once in me

May all your troubles soon be gone

Oh Christmas lights, keep shining on.

 

:bigcry:

 

My other favorite part haven't been in any previews yet, and I can't wait til tomorrow because I need to double-check the lyrics...I definitely muddled them a bit.

Mmm, so I wonder how much of the video will feature the Coldplaying boat? I keep thinking about how it's going to get integrated :thinking:

 

I wonder if they will just show it from the distance with the release of the balloons, or if they will zoom in and pan? Since you all said you had to sing, I'm thinking and hoping the latter! :awesome:
