Batmotor Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 This song would fit perfectly with the new ones,it's a little bit in the same style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryptophan Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 It wasn't around before 2008 and Coldplay already made fantastic shows. I know lots of people would miss Viva La Vida if it was left out, so I get your point. They won't do that of course, I certainly wouldn't mind though. Still, I'd rather have Lovers in Japan than Lost. But I'm really glad with the addition of older songs. Shiver! Everything's Not Lost! Life Is For Living!!

42rock89 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I would like them to replace Lost! with this, I like Lost! but not as much as LiJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 LIJ > Lost indeed. Hopefully this + Strawberry Swing will be in their arena tour. Does it bug anyone else that they do the confetti during In My Place now? It just feels....wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph589 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I would like them to replace Lost! with this, I like Lost! but not as much as LiJ This would be a great idea, don't know why but I've never been that fond of Lost! LiJ is way better to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest howyousawtheworld Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I miss this song as well. I'm really amazed not to have seen it played live yet as it was one of the most popular live songs from the last tour (with band and the fans). Drop Lost for it. Or drop Lost for Princess of China. I prefer Lost! on the record than the live version and I don't think it's a song where many people go 'OMG Lost was AMAZING' if you know what I mean.

Corkus Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I never liked "Lost!" anywhere close to as much as LIJ. In fact, I never liked "Lost!" much at all. That said, LIJ live is a lot more effective with the butterflies, so unless they bring those back, I'm not too devastated. I'd rather they replace "Lost!" with an X&Y track, actually.

Blakexy1125 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I wish they still had life in technicolor 2 lovers in japan and strawberry swing and replace lost and violet hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanif94 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Lost > LiJ :curtain: Anyway, I would like to see it back in the setlist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK Ultra Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I was thinking the other day if they would bring it back. I really like the song, hope they add it back in. Don't bring back Strawberry Swing. On the record and live it's just boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdplayingfromKansas Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I agree with what everyone says about Lovers in Japan being better than Lost! I can never get into Lost! and it's the only track on Viva that I don't listen to on a regular basis. They should replace it with LiJ, LiTii, Speed of Sound, or Strawberry Swing I'll probably get ranted against when I say this . . . but In My Place should be replaced also :curtain: It's my least favorite of Coldplay's singles (except for The Hardest Part).

I would rather them start playing PoC again! Spies = :thumbsup: I would die if they played it live Aww, come on, THE SCIENTIST? And I'm mental? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm with you Kansas....IMP is a lot more forgettable than some of the aforementioned tracks. But as a live song I imagine it's a huge asset - it's very catchy, one of the most powerful singalongs you can get... you simply don't get that from a song like Spies as good as it is (and I like Spies better). So we can only hope that the band establishes the right balance between crowd pleasers and hardcore-fan pleasers. Perhaps if they clued in to the fact that there is more intersection between those two categories than they think... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanif94 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 :curtain: Better than IMP being removed from the setlist i'd rather Viva La Vida being removed. Ok, I think I should get out quickly of this thread!! :escaping: :escaping2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 And I, in turn, agree with you Moses :D @ Juanif - I would have to say that, in light of what Moses said, Viva is THE greatest singalong the guys have (maybe that any band has) and it will get the crowds riled up no matter what the circumstances. I can't see them replacing it anytime soon, it's become a setlist staple the same as Clocks and Yellow (and IMP, I suppose :P ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyM218 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I think the setlist they had for Part II of the Viva tour was just amazing. Lovers in Japan, The Scientist and Life In Technicolor ii were the highlights of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that if they had to choose between removing IMP or VLV of their setlist, I would rather VLV being removed, not that I want them to remove that song, it's awesome to sing the ooooh part :P But lets say is not one of my favourites Coldplay songs :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lore Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 No. Life in Technicolor ii should be back though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyM218 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I think it would be cool if they kind of started their setlists off with the John Hopkins Intro, then go into Life In Technicolor ii, sort of as a way of starting where they left off from the viva la vida tour.
