Charlie Brown Appreciation Thread

I really don't see how we've had any reason to doubt ETIAW being on LP5.

new favourite!

The song is immense. ETIAW, where are you now?

The lyrics I hear for it:

 

I stole a key,

Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet,

I took a car downtown and took what they offered me.

To set me free,

I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene,

I saw the lights go down and they're standing in front of me.

 

My scarecrow dreams, (?)

When they smashed my heart into smitharines,

I be a bright red rose come bursting the concrete.

Be the cartoon heart,

Light a fire, light a spark,

Light a fire, a flame in my heart.

We'll run wild,

We'll be glow-in-the-dark.

 

All the boys, all the girls,

All the (?)

All the boys, all the girls,

All the (?)

 

All the high's, all the low's,

??

We'll run wild,

We'll start glowing-in-the-dark.

 

So we'll run wild,

We'll be glow-in-the-dark.

 

Thanks for working on this! Definitely this song is my favorite of the new songs :)

I thought that too! I'm pretty positive Charlie Brown is going to be on my list of all-time favorite Coldplay songs.

This album is going to be awesome. The only bad ting is that I would like to see Chris play the piano more

This song sounds great. I want to hear the studio version!

When I first heard Charlie Brown (Cartoon Heart), I could swear the tune was vaguely familiar. Then I figured out why.

Does anyone else think there are similarities? (Also, I haven't read this thread through, so if someone else has already made this connection, then sorry)

Ok, this is my favourite new song so far! I love it! I love that it's called Charlie Brown too!! SOOOO much better than Cartoon Heart. I hope it stays this way for the album! :heart:

I'm only halfway through watching their performance of this song, but I just wanted to say I am LOVING Jonny's riff.

This is my absolute favorite of all the new ones, and perhaps I like it more than a lot of Viva stuff. Man, this is an awesome song.

I thought the same! I don't think it's really the same song evolved, just because they did that one live and effectively released it, but I think they're similar in pretty cool ways. I love both.

That's a significant song that marked the musical evolution of this splendid band. Congrats, Chris & Co.! <3

My fav song for sure! :heart:

great song, particularly impressed by the guitar melodies

I love this song! Definetely my fave new song so far

Dont worry we still have over the half to hear :wink3:

 

Loving this song although I did prefer the title "Cartoon Heart". Would love this to be the next single

Major Minus, Charlie Brown. All my appreciation to Jonny Buckland.

 

Totally agree, I think 'Charlie Brown' is the best new song I heard yesterday, also for the guitar riff in it. Now I recognise our guys!

Wow! This song is incredible! Jonny Buckland you star! :o

 

Definately also my favourite of the new songs :)

From all the new this is the most Coldplay song I think. :)
