cp3176 2252 Posted October 11, 2015 Ikr ? :D That'd be something else if they played it more often these days... what a song. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I ran away 12777 Posted October 11, 2015 I believe it did get played at least once during the Mylo Tour. But yeah, these earlier gems become more and more forgotten... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cp3176 2252 Posted October 11, 2015 ^ Especially the not-so-popular ones. There's a lot of gems they play all the time at concerts but they have some real gems that seem to be forgotten more and more as time goes on. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I ran away 12777 Posted October 11, 2015 Yeah, it is a shame that almost everything from X&Y has been abandoned except Fix You (which is great, but not the only great song there) and Till Kingdom Come (which I don't really like). Square One, White Shadows,Talk, What If, Low, Speed Of Sound are all gems to me. Oh, and I wish they'd play I Ran Away live. Just once in their lifetime. Please. But I know it will never happen.

I actually really like Til Kingdom Come... but that'd be amazzing if they played I Ran Away live. Just once would be amazing. But it won't happen ever unfortunately... :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
42Escapist 2119 Posted October 12, 2015 I actually really like Til Kingdom Come... but that'd be amazzing if they played I Ran Away live. Just once would be amazing. But it won't happen ever unfortunately... :( They did soundcheck Crests of Waves last year and Bigger Stronger on the MX tour so you never know. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I ran away 12777 Posted October 12, 2015 Yeah, the soundcheck of Crest of Waves is promising indeed ! I doubt any of these songs will get any further than a soundcheck though, but then sometimes there are people filming at soundchecks so maybe one day....

cp3176 2252 Posted October 14, 2015 Another weak-ish connection but I guess it still works: LiT ii: "On the radio I heard..." Moving to Mars: "And I heard it on the radio..." There's another connection that I don't think has been made yet that I'll post here but I'll double check to make sure. :P EDIT: I just found out something: Heres one: LITII: "gravity release me, and don't ever hold me down, now my feet won't touch the ground" Strawberry swing: "cold cold water, bring me round, now my feet won't touch the ground" refrence to the song "now my feet won't touch the ground. from the intro of this thread. It was another involving LiT ii... but as it turns out there's two more instances in this song in which the lyrics refer to Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground. "I could hear it coming I could hear the sirens sound Now my feet won't touch the ground" and "I could hear it coming Like a serenade of sound Now my feet won't touch the ground" Pretty similar... and I guess the lyrics he posted are more connected to Chris' wanting to fly... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ran away 12777 Posted October 14, 2015 As for the "star" obsession, I wanted to point out that I Ran Away also mentions it twice: A star arose in my cage I'm stuck in line, and in a cage Just a single little star I sing it for (By the way, to me these lyrics have always been very cryptic, except evoking the fact that the narrator feels stuck. Has anyone got a cool interpretation ?) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cp3176 2252 Posted January 8, 2016 Honestly and genuinely surprised no one has got this yet. I listened to Everything's Not Lost/LifL and Trouble shortly after a couple days ago, and I noticed, there's a similar set of lyrics here: Life is for Living "As my head just aches, When I think of, The things that I shouldn't have done." Trouble "So I turned to run, The thought of all the stupid things I've done," A very, very similar idea, yet worded differently. :) Maybe that's why no one has got this yet... unless someone has, I can't remember :P By the way why has this thread died? Pretty sure we haven't ran out of similar lyrics yet... Hopefully this comment revives it :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zuiyanyiran 17 Posted August 26, 2016 wow, didn't realize there was a thread for this! I'll try to post some: PART1 "Said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war If you can tell me something worth fighting for" ——AROBTTH "Say my heart is my gun, army of one Yeah my heart is my gun, army of one My army of one is going to fight for you My army of one is going to fall for you" ——AOO (maybe after all these years Chris finally figured out that his heart is his gun, and he has found someone worth fighting for❤) PART2 "You know you know I love you so You know I love you so" ——Yellow “All I know is that I love you so So much it hurts” ——Ink “Look at the stars Look how they shine for you” ——Yellow “I see the stars, begin to shine I see your colors and I'm dying of thirst” ——Ink PART3 “Oh brother I can't believe it's true I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you Oh I wanna talk to you” ——Talk "They got one eye watching you One eye on what you do So be careful who it is you're talking to" ——Major Minus PART4 "Maybe one day I'll fly next to you Fly on Maybe one day I can fly with you Fly on" ——O "We'll be birds flying free When you fly won't you Won't you take me too?" ——Birds PART5 "When you love someone but it goes to waste Could it be worse?" ——Fix You "Don't say it was all a waste Didn't we have fun?" ——Fun (this is my fav part, comparing what he said in Fix You, and how it changed in Fun, it really shows how much this man has grown up, and had a more positive opinion on his life and relationships.) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
