Lynn42 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Do you like Charlie Brown Live or from the Studio better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFfella Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I absolutely love the Rock Am Ring version of it. The band totally went off playing that night with Chris adding a few lines of encouragement for the crowd. The studio version is outrageous too but I really like the live recording.

freezeplay Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I like both, I've only heard the Roundhouse live version, but they both kick arse! (Unlike HLH studio version that I prever live) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn42 Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 I prefer HLH live too. Awesome song!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Nails Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Live, but I love the slow piano ending on the studio one. Chris tends to rush that live (or he doesn't play it at all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postcards Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I've only heard the studio version a few times so far. I think it's better live. I was hoping the studio version was as energetic as the live version. I love the piano outra on the CD version as well. He forgot it or missed it during the KROQ performance and it seemed rushed on the today show. Overall I think it's one of Coldplay's best songs.

Connor!42! Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I don't know if it's just that i've over played the song but i feel no emotion in the studio version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akindofmagic Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I absolutely love the Rock Am Ring version of it. The band totally went off playing that night with Chris adding a few lines of encouragement for the crowd. The studio version is outrageous too but I really like the live recording. Very true. Chris sings the verses slightly different live and of course the "Light a fire" choir is sung more passionately live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hyperfried Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Certainly the live version - the studio version holds back some of the energy that the song just oozes live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Both are great. Like that there are subtle differences in the studio version which makes it feel like you're listening it for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lili_pt Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 i like both but is it just me or in the studio version you can barely hear the "I" in the first line "I stole a key"? it's been bugging me since i first heard it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackplay Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I'm torn on this one. The live version, I can feel more guitar and I die for that part. The studio, I can feel more Xylo and it's freaking amazing. I can't choose. They kinda feel like 2 very very very very very awesome songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matan Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 studio is way better!!! but i love them both maybe beacuse CB is the best song ever ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Live, definitely. The studio is good, the only real problem I have with it is that there's no bass in the Light a Fire chorus, which is so loud and passionate live. Saddening. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan 6N Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I think I prefer the live version due to the better energy during the 'light a fire...' bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
