mayurshikotra Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Being Indian, I feels good to see a video clearly celebrates and appreciates my culture, traditions and people. You can see they have embraced that by their stage layout! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed watching the video too because of the "glimpse of India" :) We tend to hear all the bad stuff about what happens over there and not enough about the good things. Nice to see that and all the wonderful colours :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42JTR Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Really great video, I'm not a big fan of (Coldplay) music videos in general but this one, I dare to say it, 'marks the spot' Verstuurd vanaf mijn ONE E1003 met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldiefan Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 .....and here it is - at last ! Really enjoyed the whole thing... especially the colours, but , as others have said, I don't think it actually reflects the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither does Birds imo...or Adventure or ASFOS hehe They kinda have this tendency of making the video sometimes totally "its own thing", apart from the song in many ways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Leo Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Yes - very true. We mustn't try to read anything into them other than sheer enjoyment. Thats also why I don't like many Coldplay videos. I don't like most of them I guess hehe PoC, ETIAW, Christmas Lights come to mind as some I like, precisely because they are in tune (no pun intended hehe) with the song theme.

I like the Clocks and Speed Of Sound video the most because I think they perfectly portray the song (IMO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamili Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Like for the video! Cool and full of life,although I don't relate it to a song. But great for watching :clap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suhit Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Great video! Loved the cinematography and the editing. Especially that part where the old man in the projector room rolls the film on the beat; that was lovely! This video makes me feel good and bad at the same time. Good, because it's a great video; and bad, because I was SO close to meeting the band :( I really hope they come down to india for a gig.

Good, because it's a great video; and bad, because I was SO close to meeting the band Awww sorry to hear that :/ So close yet so far! I guess Im a weird breed of Coldplay fan because I truly have no desire to meet any of them haha I mean I love them and they are great guys and if I happened upon them I´d stop and exchange a few words and thank them for the awesome music, but I honestly have a much greater desire to attend the concert and have a great seat than to meet them . Do I win the weird award? Maybe LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Chris looks like he´s being filmed slightly slow motion. His movements are well...they look like he´s drunk and high haha Which fits perfectly of course That can be an explanation. :) The moment when he has his head out of the cab and turns around (about 2:56) is just so hilarious. :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can be an explanation. :) The moment when he has his head out of the cab and turns around (about 2:56) is just so hilarious. :D They did that for the fix you video too. I think they play the song at a lightly fast tempo while shooting so that they can slow it down later in beat with the actual song, to make it look cool and all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diogo_sg Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This is one of my favourite visuals in the whole video. It's dazzling! The colours, the movements (in the video, obviously), everything! It makes me shiver :bliss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get a slightly less weird award than mine hehe Meeting them is definitely not on my bucket list, but I don't know...I have a feeling one day I will anyway haha Sometimes things happen to you exactly because you don't expect them *lol* On my first trip to London I was walking somewhere in Northern London cuz I heard Noel lived there and I was 15 so he was one of my idols and boom he pops up in front of me in the middle of the street haha And I had nothing ready: no photo to sign no nothing! So yeah life is full of surprises! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest diogo_sg Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Just a thought: at the end of the AOAL music video, you can hear some birds and see some (Indian?) temples in the background. HFTW's music video starts with bird sounds and inside an Indian temple. It seems like this video is meant to follow AOAL's in some way. What do you think?
