Still laugh my ass off everytime I listen to that particular line, I will never get it corrected in my head HAHAHAH Lol.

coldplayisawesome Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Lol. To this day I still don't know what "drink from me" is supposed to mean :confounded: real talk i thought it was supposed to be a religious-y thing church + club = Hymn for the Weekend :P but also i just remembered this (at 41:42), Chris in reference to a question about which is harder, writing a song or raising a kid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=bIkuR_JUCtQ;m=41;s=42 "writing a song takes a little longer... than..." "making children?" "even our shortest songs last slightly - what? what am i talking about?" :joy: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"making children?" "even our shortest songs last slightly - what? what am i talking about?" :joy: Ah, that makes some sense; I know there is a Biblical passage about drinking from the "river of life." The song also mentions angels sent down from up above, and that part of the Bible talks a lot about that kind of thing. Wow, we're getting so deep into the lyrics now...

Wow, we're getting so deep into the lyrics now... i'm not of any religion so i can't say for sure, but it makes sense to me. there's also that thing about people drinking wine as the blood of Christ or whatever, that's where my head went first i think Hymn for the Weekend is a more interesting song conceptually than most people give it credit for being :P but i can see why the more criticized bits can be hard to look past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guy42 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 i'm not of any religion so i can't say for sure, but it makes sense to me. there's also that thing about people drinking wine as the blood of Christ or whatever, that's where my head went first Oops, never thought of that! That also makes perfect sense to me. The interesting question is, What did Chris mean by that? hmm... i think Hymn for the Weekend is a more interesting song conceptually than most people give it credit for being :p but i can see why the more criticized bits can be hard to look past That's totally true. I've been listening to AHFOD for a year now, and I finally muster the courage to look for the meaning of those lyrics lmao. It's so tempting to just say it's about a guy who likes to use drugs recreationally :p 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplayisawesome Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 i'm not sure Chris really knows what he means half the time :joy: and even if you ask he says... whatever you want it to mean :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Marks The Spot Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Whenever I listen to Amsterdam, I'll always hear "It's no cause for concern" as "It's f**king awesome". It's driving me crazy that I cannot unhear it. :joy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almasmoothie Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Viva La Vida's "for some reason I can't explain" sounded like "volcanic space/volcanic place" to me at first. I kept looking for this song for good 2 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayLive567 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I'm sure we all misunderstood a least a few lines of some Coldplay songs, even if English is your native language :laugh4: So I think it would be fun for us to write down a line of lyrics we heard, and a line of what is actually said :wink: For example, I heard: "And even if your aims are shadows, still we're never gonna part" and it's actually "Even in your rains and shadows, still we're never gonna part " Mine was in Every teardrop is a waterfall where I thought every time he sang "maybe" i thought it was "baby" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xyloband_99 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 In Clocks the line come to me "Shouldn't i pull of my head" instead of "Shoot an apple of my head" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TealAppeal Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Shoot, I know I have examples however some just aren't revealing themselves to me. I suppose if you replay "All I Can Think About Is You", sometimes I'll hear, "All I can" as "Soda can". lol. :joy: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
