Jonny questioned the Minions and they all came to an agreement: Half of the world yellow, half of the world an explossion of all different colours.

Severus Snape - Always

...and when he sang "and they were all YELLOW", the Minions bounced up and down in bliss and ran up to him, happily tugging at his clothes and yelling, for each of them wanted to tell him how much this meant to them all.

Not really a random Coldplay thought, but I didn't know where else to put it... Have been listening to some Adele songs recently. I still don't like her voice that much and feel that her songs, while trying hard (too hard ?) to be emotional, often lack a strong melody and sometimes a strong instrumentation supporting the vocals. In short, nothing I would be listening too on a regular basis. But man, CAN THAT GIRL SING !!! Saw vids of some live performances and...wow ! If AHFOD turns out to be all disco-dancey pop, I really wish she wins the chart battle.

I thought it was Batman's work :) And regarding the girl in the front, well that could be me :D

Thanks !

Does anyone have a timeanddate countdown for the concert beginning ?

I think it's OK to make a separation between Oldplay and Newplay (I did not invent that term, but I admit that when I first heard it i took it up and have been using it quite often) because the musical style/atmopshere is just so radically different since MX. I agree that discussion sometimes become too heated on both sides - I have seen insults and stupid comments from Newplayers as well as Oldplayers, I have a feeling it is slightly more coming from the former to the latter than vice versa but the point is it shouldn't be coming from any side. You should be a mod in this forum. You always explain your positions so calmly and have a lot of understanding for both Oldplayers and Newplayers, you could be the ideal mediator :)

Welcome to the forum and the Oldplaying thread ! Feel free to browse around - there could be a lot of obscure Oldplay songs you haven't heard yet :)

Oh, I'm so sorry about that.

And he took his acoutic guitar, played a few chords and began singing in his lovely, dreamy voice "Look at the stars..."

Don't call it "hypocrisy". Yes, this particular line of Low may not be a good lyric (the other lines of Low are, in my opinion). Other than that, Low has got a great instrumentation and melody. It's not the fact that it's pop or rock. It's a good song. Take Proof as an example - cringeworthy first-grade rhyming book lyrics but great instrumentation, melody, vocals, atmosphere and hence still a good song. If Hymn or whatever song this "I feel high" lyric will appear on fulfils these criteria, then it will be a good song. No double-standards here.

That's true :(

Nice new avatar, gentleparachute ! :)

More dates will be anounced ! I'm sure Coldplay will play more than these few gigs. I think the Viva tour had 100 concerts worldwide, so more is yet to come !

@thetwinparadox: Can you please add A View From The Top ? It's one of the best unreleased songs (imho) and it's missing... [video=youtube;SufQelzQtx8]

Not that thread owner but I know that is planned ! Fly On is not bad either...but still I wish GS had won !

Even this task was not fulfilled correctly by the Minions; especially Stuart, who kept snatching Jonny's guitar away to rock off on it.

Yess ! Ode to Deodorant it is . That was fast. Your turn !

I don't think it is a reference, to be honest. Chris is just feeling high at the moment and this is one way of saying it (or else he is "alive again", "floating up above the world now" etc.)
