I have a pristine mix of the song completely vocal-less. It's cool to listen to or sing karaoke to or whatever to. dance to! haha

 

here it is. I think, personally, the most underrated and important elements of this arrangement are first, Guy's Bass line in the verses is crucial to the way the song builds towards the soaring chorus. and second, Johnny's simple but perfect little riff during the chorus. It's a counter melody and frankly, he's a genius at writing these parts. Coldplay might not be coldplay without his guitars adding what they do to so many songs.

Interesting, thanks !
