I ran away

Silk reminds me of the Silk Road, a trade road to China (and in direction of Japan). Speed of Sound by Coldplay talks about Japan and CHina :) Cough

Everything I know is wrong Everything I do it just comes undone Everything is torn a- part

Look up, I look up at night, planets are moving at the speed of light

You got it !

Since I'm just writing applications and stuff, the first thing I thought of was this: In my uni's job process you have to give a so-called "Chalk Talk", where you talk about your research using only chalk and a whiteboard. So the chalk is used to give a presentation, a talk, to the committee. Talk is the name of a Coldplay song :) Riddle

Oh wow, I didn't know that ! Well done @alisbe ! (And LOL, in this shot it looks like she secretly followed her boyfriend into the movie theatre only to catch him red-handed staring wide-eyedly at a scantily-clad Beyonce dancing on screen :D :D :D)

Bucket for a crown because it mentions "Noel Gallagher" ?

Wow, that was quick ! Yes to everything except the line that contradicts a common theme in Coldplay songs was "I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet", which I thought sounds like the opposite of the Coldplay theme of feet not touching the ground. Your turn again :D

Haha, good one ! :) Especially today on the day the CLOCKS were set back ! Off-topic, but how did you get that vinyl signed ? It looks awesome :D

No need to apologize ! I think the idea was very good but it was hard to get to the answer :) :shocked2: :sleeping::curtain: :curtain: :shocked2: :)

Alright ! The lyrics of a popular version of a song that originated from the country that Coldplay visited for the first time in the current tour contradict a common theme in Coldplay songs, but also have a few lines that are very similar to a Coldplay song; find that song please.

OMG, I would never have thought this riddle actually has a solution and that I'd find it :D And thanks to you I like Simenon somewhat less now, after I read he boasted about having had 10.000 lovers since the age of 13... :inquisitive: Now let me think of a new one :devilish:

Ah, found it now :)

Aaaargh, I already read about him. Do you know he claims he had 10.000 lovers in his life ? I hope we don't have to go through all of them ;) I even read up already about his affair with Josephine Baker, but I didn't find any connection from Josephine Baker to another woman back then. I now read it again more carefully, and she had a relationship with Frida Kahlo ?! Viva La Vida ?

Can someone point out where In My Place is ? Still haven't found it :D

I also had a Coldplay dream tonight :) I dreamt I was in a stadium before a show and I was collecting Xylobands and Love Buttons. The Xylobands looked kind of weird, they were white like in the American Tour but not very flexible, so they were very impractical and uncomfortable. I tried to get Love Buttons of different colours but everywhere I walked they only had the same colour, purple. (In real life, purple was my first love button I ever got back then at the MetLife stadium show :D)

Cool ! I have found Violet Hill, but haven't found In My Place yet. I have found both "My Place" and "Put Yourself In My Place" though...

Yeah, you really should :) Thanks for making the poster for the party, by the way !

I think I know who the famous Belgian is ! No seriously, I know that quote is from Poirot. Are you referring to Simenon who we had as a famous Belgian a few pages ago ? I already read up on him but I didn't find anything useful....

I would never have gotten that...and hey, it could be 1.36 as well with that reasoning :D Who will do the new one ?

Wow ! The even got the font right :D

Like [uSER=101247]@diogo_sg[/uSER] said, Albertus medium :)

Is the first woman Ariadne Oliver ?

Especially now in the grey, rainy, cold autumn/early winter days having these parties feels like a warm meeting with friends to look forward to !
