Samuel_94 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Yeah, I find it terribly frustrating trying to read, understand, relate these songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I'd like to thank you for not using the whole words :D Well I need to think of the people with C** K*** sensitive epilepsy. :dozey: :D Actually, those lyrics sound kinda overdramatic for MX, maybe they too are from the VIVA era. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoryABjerre Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 ^^ True. Although I can't imagine why they would scrap some of these in favor of PoC, etc. every tear a waterfall and up in flames from part of PoC because Us Against the World Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 You're saying that an album with lyrics like "every tear a waterfall" and "up in flaaaaaaames we've slowly gone" isn't dramatic? You're confusing dramatic with cheesy. :awesome: But good cheesy. :dazzled: The two of us we drove A speeding ghost, and a shadow Luminous to the road to the sea We swam from the shallows To battle lightning's glow Where we're gonna run, God only knows Take you . . . Ghosts, battles, God... It's VIVA-esque to me. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 The man who swears! :cheesy: This is the first time I hear about this song. (Don't crucify me.) But I love it when Chris swears. :dazzled: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sjef Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 If they pull of a Life in Technicolor ii out of MX or A Hopeful Transmission it must be amazing:dazzled: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 ^ If we don't get any other releases from Coldplay during this era, I want either the Great Expectations lyrics, or the 'luminous' lyrics from the cover :wacky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kover Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 "There's a man who swears he's God But I'm pretty sure he's not" has the same amount of syllables as "They got one eye watching you And one eye on what you do" Sing it, the first stanza sounds perfect! I think maybe we should try this with the other Demos and released MX songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounded very different from Major Minus. But, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartroc Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Wait...I've been gone for awhile, where did this "The Man Who Swears" thing come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrk Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Wait...I've been gone for awhile, where did this "The Man Who Swears" thing come from? From the special edition booklet I think :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Wait...I've been gone for awhile, where did this "The Man Who Swears" thing come from? In the limited edition booklet, there's an excerpt from Chris' notebook with the lyrics to A Man Who Swears--but the title above it says Major Minus. :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
