1. We're finally hearing the lyrics bright and clear!

 

2. I cried. My god, this is beautiful... It's crazy how I can fall in love with a song.

 

 

So once again: the now almost complete lyrics to Love Like This :heart:

 

Running through the heat/Heath (Heath could refer to a park in Birmingham)

Heartbeat

You shine like silver in the sunlight

You light up my cold heart

It feels right, in the sun, the sun

We’re running around, and round

Like nothing else could matter in our lives

(Acoustic version: we're running around like love is what we found,

and nothing else could matter in our lives.)

Away, away, away

The sun will stop shining soon and

you’ll be gone in my life (acoustic version: dark in my life?)

Yeah you’ll be gone

It’s as simple as a change of heart

I’m not gonna think about the future

 

A love like this won’t last forever

I know a love like this won’t last forever

But I don't really mind

Yeah I don't really mind at all

 

Stepping through the night life

..... 's dark but you don't mind

Hiding in the backstreets

Yeah you never noticed me

All that I was thinking about

Was cleaning up my conscience

I got lost in the memory as it shakes up the corners of my heart

Was it my mistake?

Or maybe it was just as simple as a change in your heart

Mmmm.. just as simple as a change of heart

 

I know now

A love like this won't last forever

I know a love like this won't last forever

But I.. I know that a love like this won't last forever

I know that a love like this won't last forever

But I..

 

Oooohhh Ooohhh Oooohhh Oohhhhh

 

I don't mind at all

 

A love like this won't last forever

A love like this, a love like this

A love like this won't last forever

Woahhh oohhh

I keep coming back to the acoustic version of Love Like This.

 

The lyrics get much more meaning in this setting.. they were already

great, but this new acoustic version gives it so much more depth & emotion!

 

And when he alters the lyrics like 'Love like hers' at 3.13... :wacky:

^ Yes!!! :wacky: And when I understood it was "you'll be dark", I wanted to squeal :dazzled:

It's such a great song, both versions are too beautiful! :dazzled: I downloaded Soundcloud on my Ipod on purpose 'cause my brother had my laptop :dozey:

 

However... I'm not sure but I believe that instead of "Away, away, away" he says: "But wait, but wait, but wait"... But I don't know, maybe I'm just hearing things :shrug: And also, I think he says "you'll be dark" in the original version too...

And I just happened to watch a fan video with lyrics and it read "hip-hop beat"... It could be, couldn't it?

 

 

 

But seriously... Does anyone know what they think about Coldplay? They're like... Soul-sister bands :P

Just watched Taratata and it was great! Although the interviewer, Nagui, has a gift to make British and now Irish artists uncomfortable, it's uncanny :cheesy: Also, they screwed up big time before their cover :lol: Steve couldn't get the first notes I think, and so for several minutes he tried and tried and with a little help from Mark eventually they managed to start the song :lol:

 

About Coldplay: I don't think they're big fans. I remember the night of the Brits, Ellen tweeted them asking which act they'd like to see win and they answered Muse :sad:

I also understand that they don't like mentioning Coldplay to try and contain the whole "Kodaline is the new Coldplay" thing.

^ Nagui asks really embarassing questions!

It was funny how Steve kept trying and Mark "you can do it" :wacky:

I remember that tweet it was something like "easy Muse" as in you can't even compare them :sad:

 

Do you think they sound like Coldplay?

 

Edit

The videos are already online but I have no idea how to post them :(

Just a link to the website they're on will be good I think :)

 

The tweet they replied to me was : 'Muse, easily. x'. So yes.. definitely a preference for Muse there :lol:

 

I think it's pretty easy for people to compare Kodaline to (the earlier era's of) Coldplay, since their songs pretty much match on the topic of lost or impossible loves, especially All I Want. And just the overall style of songs could be seen as Coldplay-ish. But I think All I want's the song that is most similar to Coldplay.. for the other stuff I don't really hear it. They really have their own way of writing and performing their songs, which is what I love about them. Authenticity.

 

 

 

 

And good looks :whistle:

Authenticity and the fact that when they've started they've brought something fresh, I think that's both the main point in common and the difference with Coldplay. By that I mean that because they're honest and creative, talented musicians, they don't do something that other bands do. So, yeah I definitely understand the Coldplay reference, in their attitude and their approach to music, but in the end the result is still different.

 

Here's a link to Taratata's website, although i don't know if the videos are available everywhere: http://www.mytaratata.com/Pages/EMISSIONS_voir.aspx?TvShowId=520 Kodaline are in last.

 

 

edit: Other points in common: their lead singer is blond, they're freakin handsome, humble, the lead singer and the guitarist have a great complicity (Stark, ok. I'm making it a thing), the lead singer and speeches don't go well together...

First up: lyrics to What It Is.

 

So you’re standing in the parking lot of life

And you trying to figure out your fate tonight

Then you hear a sound coming out of the car radio

Singing ‘Son, if you don’t learn than you will never know’

 

So you’re trying to drag your feet down to the bar

When you’re starting to forget just who you are

And we told you, it was written in the stars

But you’ve never had a chance to look that far

 

Yeah, that’s just the way it goes

Maybe you’ll die young before you’re old

Yeah that’s just the way it is

Nobody’s gonna tell you how to live

 

In a world that changes every day

It’s easy to get lost along the way

In a world that’s never as it seems

Where people try to buy and sell their dreams

Where people try to buy and sell their dreams

 

Oh yeah, that’s just the way it goes

Maybe you’ll die young before you’re old

Yeah that’s just the way it is

Nobody’s gonna tell you how to live

Nobody’s gonna tell you how to live

 

Yeah, ohh, yeah, ohh..

 

Yeah that’s just the way it goes

Maybe you’ll die young before you’re old

Yeah that’s just the way it is

Nobody’s gonna tell you how to live

Nobody’s gonna tell you how to live
