- "You can hurt, hurt me bad"

- Fade to just acoustic guitar in this section ^

- The "raaaaaaaaaaise" in "but still I'll raise the flag"

- Jonny's guitar riff throughout

- The return of the drum from VIVA era

- Will's awesome drum solo at the end

- The change to minor at "Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes"

 

Feel free to add to the list, I've grown to love it whilst being previously uncertain through numerous ipod listens on my way back to the uni library :laugh3:

Yeah....simply beautiful I think.

 

I love the single! :P

I think you're right about it all, but this just means that it has a little Coldplay over it after all, and they're geniuses that can make the worst song slightly good. But it does not make up for everything else that makes this song awful.

Definitely agree with the guitar riff. It's my favourite part! He sounds fantastic in every new song we've heard so far.

Jonny is one badass motherfucker, pardon my French. I've always known it. See all Chuck Norris memes, but replace Chuck Norris with Jonny "hero" Buckland.

Actually, from a drummer's standpoint, Will's bit at the very end is quite rudimentary. Also, I personally find it to be unnecessary. I don't know, it's just that I don't think a drum solo is the best way to end a song, y'know?

 

Having said that, Jonny's guitar part is my favorite and is probably the primary reason why I listen to the song.

There should definitely be a thread about this.

Following on from what you've said, I have to add that I personally love those 10 seconds of drumming, but it sounds like its itching for a chorus to follow it rather than the song ending.. but I do love it!

There's now 4 copies of the promo cd on ebay. Does anybody know how many total there are? Is it 100?

yeah i know which is weird

ETIAW is quite beautiful, a bright piece worth it's weight in myrrh, with a splendidly elegant ending. :drummer:

Well it's all relative, but turn any a rush of b-sides tracks, literally any, and than Teardrop - the difference is sooooo huuuuge.

- The guitar riff is beautiful, it reminds me of Strawberry Swing and also parts of Lovers In Japan

- The lyrics Cathedrals in my hart, you can hurt, hurt me bad are beautiful

- It has a nice beat and is a great summer and happy song

- The drums are also very Will Championish:P

It's really a very beautiful song after you hear it a few times

I think you'd both be surprised at how slag Coldplay has got for this song. I'm not even specifically talking about the forum. People everywhere were displeased with it.
