Chris missed his calling as an ornithologist :eek: Either that or an astronomer.

@The Adversary So your AROBTTH Head is bleeding ? Is that a statement about Coldplay as a whole or just an artwork you liked ?

It was just an artwork I liked but I like your interpretation better. Yes, I'm going with that and I came up with it all by myself if anyone asks ;)

I swear I always see a goat with a long ear every time I look at the AROBTTH artwork. I always need to remind myself its actually something else LOL

I swear I always see a goat with a long ear every time

Funny, I had a friend who said this as well. I don't see it myself.

LOL So glad I am not the only one. I always thought I was up until now. hehe

Can you explain to me how to see the goat ?

I know, I just took a long, hard look at my AROBTTH cd but couldnt see it. Then again, I don't wanna be corrupted and see a goat every time I look at AROBTTH

Whoever sees the goat bust out the Microsoft paint and draw us an outline ;)

*LOL* "Yes Leo, explain to me what your clearly deluded and crazy eyes see..." hehe Ok here is the official Leo guide on "how you see the goat"

 

This works best at a distance, not too close up otherwise you clearly see its not a goat. So from a distance you can see the overall shape is that of a goat head with a hanging long ear *lol* (I am actually laughing at myself as I am writing this...). You can even see the goat mouth and small nose above the mouth and the faint line of an eye even. It looks like a very serious goat, not unfriendly, just serious, pondering as it were. *lol* OK I cant write anymore...I am laughing too much at how silly this sounds, but I swear I´ve always seen THE goat :) Blame it on a rush of blood to Leo´s head :P

Now you know how I feel whenever I look at that cover. It spoils the whole album for me every time but I just cant stop seeing it hehe

I still have a headache from yesterday, so not now haha But I may consider trying in the future even though I am absolutely not gifted when it comes to drawing, even outlines hehe

I really tried hard to see the goat, but I can't. Can you describe where the individual points are situated (liek mouth, nose etc.) ? :D

Goat Story:

 

Maybe you're just a goat

Disappear when I look too close

*LOOOL* So funny....ok I´ll try. The goat is best seen with a small pic of the cover, mind you..so keep it at a distance. The long ear is well the long ear under the goaty chin. The mouth is the same as the human mouth, the nose just above it and the oblong black spot on the top is the eye.

 

I cant believe I managed to write that with somewhat a straight face haha

It´d be easier to show you but alas this is cyberspace :) Though be thankful you dont see the goat. It would spoil the album for you hehe

Oh god that video....so funny! *ROTFL*

It would spoil the album for you hehe

 

Nothing in the world can spoil this album for me ! :)

I cant believe this...but someone else saw a goat inspiration in AROBTTH, enough to name a sculpture after it LOL

I love the album but I cant listen to it much anymore. Its too depressing for me, most of the tracks remind me of years and years of sad memories, about something beautiful, but still sad.
