Nie Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 How... hold your horses! [emoji1] The answer to the previous riddle from @iranaway isn't confirmed yet. She is keeping us in suspense. [emoji4] (And it should be @I ran away. Don't know who the other Coldplayer is) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Sorry all ! I have been very busy since the fall of man yesterday and today. Work stress, the stress of managing my transatlantic return and I have to move to another apartment this weekend.... Thank you @Nie for your attempt to wait for the official answer :) So @Nie is basically right, although i didn't make that X&Y connection (but it fits !) I thought, smoke can cause diseases such as lung cancer. An X-ray is a picture by which you can see straight through someone. Air-filled tissues like the lung will appear transparent in the X-ray and thus black, and if you have a disease such as cancer, tuberculosis, pneumonia or many more, you will see a so-called shadow on the lung where there is denser, unhealthy tissue. This shadow is actually white, so White Shadows :) OK now lets continue :) And my guess is Parachutes ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran away Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Hmm, let me think of a new one then :evil: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Forty-two minutes by bike from the place where the one their second was named after was played on the second of three, you will encounter something that sounds like a Coldplay EP. What was once there created, to those a special significance has about whom the song talks; beware, at the end of your walks you will see the same problem that The Scientist has. EDIT: To avoid a situation like last time and make sure it is not a random guess, please state your reasoning (even if it is just in the form of a few keywords) when you post a guess ! Thanks ! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplayisawesome Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 i sense another team effort on this one the place where the one their second was named after was played on the second of three, i think this might be AROBTTH/ Foro Sol, Mexico City??? but that's as far as i got before my brain started to hurt :dizzy: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Twisted Logic? Nope... Please all read what I have just added in the orginal post, so as to avoid a situation like last time. Thanks :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Talk, cause nothing's really making any sense at all and I feel like you're talking in a language I don't speak[emoji12] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Haha, Talk does fit quite often for our riddles, doesn't it ? :) But nope... Team effort sounds good, I would suggest you start with what @coldplayisawesome has said and develop ot further... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Oh now I get what @coldplayisawesome is even talking about haha[emoji16] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Now I've gotten so far as trying to find out with Google maps what is 42 minutes with the bike away from Foro Solo[emoji23] 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Well, I was just doing that and I think I have found the place the Frida Kahlo museum which has a Blue House. (reference to Blue Room EP) There is the painting which was the inspiration of Viva la Vida 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Don't know what The Scientist has to do with Viva La Vida, so that is something we yet have to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Viva La Vida talks about a king The Scientist is running in circles Til Kingdom Come maybe?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 [ATTACH=full]5687[/ATTACH] by the way, the fastest route was 45 minutes :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Or maybe Frida Kahlo's paintings have special significance to the Spanish people so maybe Don Quixote/Spanish Rain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flockofbirds222 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Or maybe Princess Of China? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Viva La Vida talks about a king The Scientist is running in circles Til Kingdom Come maybe?? no, but your take on The Scientist could be helpful :) @Nie is right, I was indeed referencing to La Casa Azul (The Blue House), in which Frida Kahlo lived and where she also created the painting "Viva La Vida". Hint: Try to continue your thoughts from VLV the painting, not VLV the song. [ATTACH=full]5687[/ATTACH] by the way, the fastest route was 45 minutes :D Google Maps showed me two different routes yesterday with 42 or 43 minutes. Unfortunately I didn't take a screenshot, so you have to take my word for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nie Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I have looked up when the painting was created and it was right before her dead. The scientist has the phrases: - running in cycles - going back to the start --> which could be a reference to death So this is leading me to "Death and all his friends" which has I don't want a cycle of recycled revenge.

Unfortunately I didn't take a screenshot, so you have to take my word for it. haha, yes I gave you the benefit of the doubt. I often have different time results when I look up directions in Google Maps. And, the coincidence was too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 @Nie: I like your reasoning, but that is not it and DAAHF is not the answer... Hint: Take a look at the actual painting itself and think about what it may mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
