I ran away

????? ??????? ??? ??????? , ??????? ??? ??????? ?? ???????? ???? ??? ? (Off-topic: When I am on Coldplaying and see you get on here, Nie, I know that I am definitely up too late ! :D)

Some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor

This song originally had a 'The' in the title which was later dropped, it peaked at No.2 in the UK and it was a single

Ein Spruch ein Rebellenschrei Shiver

3:45 to 3:59 is me at a Coldplay show when Viva La Vida comes on and I try to take a video in my excitement :D

And now you are already in the X&Y Era of likes, thanks to @42Escapist :D

And now you have (Live)2003 likes, @alisbe :)

Great review ! You heard Lovers in Japan, Don't Panic, In My Place and See You Soon in one concert ? Wow !!! :D And about your first sentence, it's just my opinion, but I personally think it does not necessarily matter if you got front row, got chosen for the intro video or got to high-five Guy or something similar (not to say this isn't cool !). What I mean is, you could have sat in the highest nosebleed seats in the stadium and still written an amazing review because I think what matters most is the way you feel the show.

Parachutes is a great album to start your morning with !

I have been looping a live version of Talk for a few days now - it is very energizing, but the downside is that I have to stop myself from rocking out in public transport or something :)

I must say I cannot see myself ever using any of these (I felt they were a bit cringey and cheesy in parts...the designs are cool, but the remixes, errr...) but since this made me win a Coldplay signed artwork, I am not gonna complain :D

Oh no,I am really sorry about the loss of your grandpa ! I give you a big virtual hug, stay strong. I don't know if this is useful advice (and I dread the moment when i will have to face it for myself), but try to focus on your grandpa's life and the role he had in your life and the good memories rather than on the loss itself. In the end no matter which way you look at it though, you will miss him terribly and I really don't have any advice for that. Life is short and cruel and we all have to go through these feelings at some points in our lives, I hope time will heal these wounds. :( Also, it reminded me of this article about someone who lost her grandma: http://coldplaying.com/forum/index.php?threads/lovely-article-on-how-coldplay-helped-a-fan-with-the-grieving-process.107536/#post-5839107

Sorry for reviving this old thread, but where ?

I change to The Man Who Swears, then

@Nie - that happens to me sometimes too, and then I am like 'wait, what were the last 3 songs that played ?' But pour you, having to endure that high-pitched scream from Chris over and over again :D

Was in a movie theatre yesterday evening and during the movie the line fell 'Us against the world' :) Heard HFTW playing on my way out !

I brought plastic bags in my handbag and went around grabbing confetti from the floor after the show.

I am so sorry, @iamsue, I don't have any butterflies ! At least in the back part of the flooor where I was collecting, I did not see any. Only have birds in different colours (not purple, but pink - do you want a pink bird ?) and stars in two different shapes (roundish and edgy) in various colors. I would be happy to send you any of these !

Viva La Vida

In my place, in my place, were lines that I couldn't change

Moving to Mars ?

By the way folks, I still owe you the story of how I *unsuccessfully tried* to promote the I Ran Away Project after I unexpectedly ended up in front of the C-stage at the first MetLife show. Was quite confused and overwhelmed that evening and although I knew for a while that the place where I am standing is in front of the C-stage, it was not until halfway through Amazing Grace that I thought "Oh wait, I should have made a poster after all !". I quickly fumbled in the dark in my tiny handbag for a pen and paper (which along with my X&Y booklet I always take with me on such occasions, on the off-hand chance that I for instance bump into Chris on 5th Avenue or spot Phil in the stadium or whatever - silly, I know, but I would kick myself forever if I did really meet one of them and did not have anything to get an autograph). The greatest difficulty here was actually pulling anything out at all, because by this time people had realized that the band would next appear on this stage and were pressing us first-rowers with all their might against the barrier or tried to squeeze into front row between us, so that I had trouble to actually bend my arm outwards a little bit to look inside the bag ! :D The paper I pulled out had the New York subway plan printed on the back. I did not have any solid ground on which to write something on the paper, so I wrote it against my knee which ended up tearing the paper in parts. Unfortunately the pen was very faint and I also only got round to incompletely write #IRanAwayLive, because at that moment the band took the stage and I quickly stuffed away the pen and grabbed my phone again to make a video. With one hand I held the phone and with the other one I held the paper. There was a bit of time between them standing there and Chris talking about how they played In my place in New York before. I saw Jonny (who was the closest to me of the four) look at the paper, then briefly looking at me with a frown before he looked somewhere else. I was a bit disheartened by this look, although it is most likely that he could not decipher the faint writing from that distance and that is why he gave this look. (Or he did read it and frowned at me because he didn't like the idea, we will never know...) Anyway, I continued to hold the paper up between songs and after the band had left the stage, I reached out over the barrier and threw it into the C-stage area, where it was likely picked up and thrown away by a roadie :D You can see the tragically unsuccessful paper in these videos: (my own video, at 0:09 :D) (at 0:28 i'm waving it on the right hand corner of the video)

A lot of interesting theories here, I loved especially the one about Whisper Yell and Magic Spell :) But the truth is that what I meant was exactly what guy42 said - they are Coldplay songs that fade out in the end. Can you name two others, @guy42 ?

and we dream of making our escape
