Narrated parts are in Swedish, but interviews of course in English.

Hope it's watchable outside Sweden, it should be.

Ouuuh what is the crazy thing Jonny did while hypnotized ? I'd love to know more about that :rolleyes::lol:

Thanks!

Such amazing interview!! *__*

:o

 

VIVA LA VIDA DEMO :o

different lyrics

This is such a great documentary, they went bothering professors and Nasa and travelled half the world for it! It'd deserve to be wholly translated in English!

 

And there's even Viva's demo!!

the string part is awesome !

^ yeah I like that part too

 

^^ you're right, it's too bad it's in Swedish

The most difficult part of the video is when they interview a woman in Spain: she speaks Spanish and it's translated in Swedish (which, I get it, is normal) :lol:

 

But yes that's a very interesting documentary. :)

^ oh that must be very confusing, didn't think about that since as you said it's normal to me :D

we need translation!

and please to the creator of the thread , add something like "VIVA LA VIDA creation process interview" something like that to the title :P

The reporter asked why he chose VLV for the team and why he likes it so much.

 

"The staff liked it and put it on. I create the line-up which is most demanding, music is up to others. They put it on because they liked it, but to be honest, after hearing it so many times... But it's true, at that time..."

 

Reporter: You're tired of listening to it?

 

"Exactly. But you're right, it was played a lot that year. We are many on the team and staff who like Coldplay a lot."
