If she's a princess and he's a king... shes his daughter? O_O

No, I don't think that's what chrismartin_ meant.

She didn't talk about the song Moses nor about why Chris got a baby. I think she just wanted to suggest that the lyrics to the song Princess of China might have been written while he was thinking of his children. She also said that this was the way she thought about it, so that's even what you are saying yourself 'interpret the songs of fictions'. She just gave her interpretation of a song that we don't really know what it's about. :)

 

THANK YOU!! thats what i meant..i didnt word it right..lol

never know why people talk about incest on this song when Chris Martin has spoken of the characters there is a king and a foreign princess from China. in the song.

where you see a song incest? it's more a song about impossible love and adultery

So if she IS a Princess (from China, in fact), then why would she sing she COULD have been a Princess? She ALREADY is one.

 

Sorry for the BOLD, just trying to emphasize.

well i guess how i look at it the album is a story and thinking that the princess of china (rihanna) got into a fight with the king (chris) and in the song "Up In Flames"

the drum beat is chris's heartbeat slowing down from the fight...

Up In Flames is on song Princess Of China

 

Once upon a time, we burn bright

Now all we ever seem to do is fight

On and on...

And on and on and on...

 

Once upon a time on the same side.

Once upon a time on the same side, the same game

And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw it all on my fame

 

Cause you really hurt me

No you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

No you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

Ooooooooh no you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

Ooooooooh no you really hurt me...

 

And stole my star

 

[beat Break]

 

 

 

 

and if the king (no king) is already married to a Queen, it's normal that the Princess did not become a Princess

 

on Chorus

 

Princess Of China"

(feat. Rihanna)

 

 

Ohhhhh...

 

[Chris Martin:]

Once upon a time somebody ran

Somebody ran away saying fast as I can

I've got to go... got to go

 

Once upon a time we fell apart

You're holding in your hands the two Halves of my heart

Ohhhhh, ohhhhh!

 

Ohhhhh...

 

[Rihanna:]

Once upon a time, we burn bright

Now all we ever seem to do is fight

On and on...

And on and on and on...

 

Once upon a time on the same side.

Once upon a time on the same side, the same game

And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw it all on my fame

 

[Chorus:]

I could've been a Princess, You'd be a King

Could've had a castle, and worn a ring

But no, you let me go

 

I could've been a Princess, You'd be a king

Could've had a castle, and worn a ring

But no, you let me go

 

And stole my star

 

[beat Break]

 

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

You stole my star la, la la la la laaaaaa

 

Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh

 

[Outro:]

Cause you really hurt me

No you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

No you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

Ooooooooh no you really hurt me

Cause you really hurt me

Ooooooooh no you really hurt me...
