New Coldplay Christmas Song 2010! Christmas Lights // behind-the-scenes footage in first post (parts

[kspillers2]

 

And Chris had to do the take where he pops up from the ground SO MANY TIMES :lol:.

 

Chelsea,

 

That part was cool...But even though we were out in the cold too, I really was feeling pretty bad for Chris especially. He had to wear just that shirt/vest combo....at least we were a little bundled up. And we could leave...he was trapped till 3!

[iPsy]

I like it!

My only grumble is how low he seems to sing, it just doesn't feel Coldplay-ish

[AnnaElisabeth]

Snow is falling outside my window and the sun is setting, the sky is all pink. Listening to the song. Oh, it's all so perfect.

 

Unnecessary post.

 

Everything's just so beautiful today. :wacky:

 

I'm so excited they're back :dance:

[Bonus_mosher]

out of interest, has anybody decoded the latin on the top of the stage?

Saw it in AnnaElizabeth's sig and it reminded me.

It must have been so much fun to watch them shoot the video - and it must be amasing to have such a sweet memory to look back on! :thumbsup:

I wish I could have been there too.... :\

 

But now I am counting down with Coldplay - and I can´t wait....:D

Just to hear all of you talking about the song and the video....:wreck: :D

 

ah, just to be a Coldplay fan - and a coldplayer of course - it´s the best!!:love:

Now it´s 0359.21....to download! And take of!!

ah, that's brilliant.

thanks.

What an odd thing to have emblazoned in gold letters for a christmas song..... :lol:

[marina_]

Has everybody heard it yet?

 

I refuse to listen. I want to be counting down together with coldplay.com, and wait until they release it. Oh yes, it's hard, but fun at the same time :)

The band don't care when you hear it.

EMI decide that. You're not pleasing Coldplay any more by waiting,

just the bigwigs at EMI.

in fact, Chris just tweeted me saying 'LOLZ I hate EMI'

true story.

 

 

may not be a true story

I really really love the bit in the middle, around 2- 2.12.

You can't take it all in after one listen! (on the boat)

You can take it in after 56 plays in the space of 3 hours on itunes.

I.....can't.....stop....it...... :dead:

[crazyduckette]

haha! Don't overplay it and get sick of it :P

 

although, hard to when you know that you're part of the 'vocals' :dance: :dance: (well on the video at least)

58 and a half now. Lol

I can't get sick of it. like, I don't know why

it's almost a physical impossibility to get sick of this song.

I think you're right, I think the boats 'n hoes experience has something to do with it.

“Christmas night, another fight.

Tears we cried; a flood.

Got all kinds of poison in, poison in my blood.

Took my feet, to Oxford street, trying to right a wrong.

“Just walk away”, those windows say, but I can’t believe she’s gone.

When you’re still waiting for the snow to fall,

It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all.

A group of cameras/candles on there flicker, Oh they flicker and they flow.

And I’m up here holding on to all those chandeliers of hope.

Like some drunkard Elvis singing, I go singing out of tune.

Singing how I always loved you darling, and I always will.

Oh when I’m still waiting for the snow to fall,

It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all.

Still waiting for the snow to fall, It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all.

Those Christmas lights,

Light up the street,

Down where the sea and city meet.

May all your troubles soon be gone.

Oh Christmas lights, keep shining on.

Those Christmas lights, light up the street.

Maybe they’ll bring her back to me.

Then all my troubles will be gone,

Oh Christmas lights, keep shining on.

Ohhhhohhhhoohhhohhhhhhhhooohohohohhhhhh

Oh Christmas lights, light up the street.

Light up the fireworks in me.

May all your troubles soon be gone.

Those Christmas lights, keep shining on.”

[MrsMartin333]

It's so fucking beautiful, I was in tears when I first heard it, and watched the video. I really can't even comprehend it yet. It's just so beautiful. Omg.

:cry:

I thought it was candles, but it's 'Cameras'

:)

[MrsMartin333]

I thought it was

"down where the Sea and City meet"

I only thought that because they were on the water front when they filmed the video, and they make it so that you can see the city and the water all lit up and all.

I don't know, that's just what I think :nice:

[MrsMartin333]

lol is it really cameras!

I have to listen to it again :wacky:

[Sirhc]

Shall we count down together?

 

BTW: I loooooove your avi :wacky:

[Strawberry Swinger]

where is the video? too lazy to search...

[footyfan10]

i've only just heard the song (not yet seen the video and will only allow myself to listen to the song once) but did anyone else find "our contribution" to be slightly out of place? someone said this about on the video as well, but on the song, perhaps because i knew when it was coming (?), our "oh-oh-oh-oh-oh..." seemed odd. maybe i'll have to just listen to the song without trying to listen to our part!
