Coldplay
Talk [Live At Earls Court 2005]/[Thin White Duke Remix]
**** [Q Recommends]
Two exclusive live versions from the band of 2005.
Coldplay underlined that 2005 was their year by selling out three consecutive nights at London’s 18.000-capacity Earls Court last December. It was the climax of their 80-date Twisted Logic world tour adn the sense of occasion is palpable on this download.
As Jonny Buckland plays the guitar intro to Talk, Martin acknowledges that it’s lifted from Kraftwerk’s Computer Love by counting in the drums in German. “Ein, zwei, drei, funfzehn,” he shouts, in an arch nod to Bono’s Spanish introduction to Vertigo.
It’s an epic performance by the quartet. A dance remix by Madonna’s producer Stuart Price is also available.
Price: 99p each Format: MP3
