I ran away

I have no idea about the Adversary's age but just wanted to point out that young people (with excellent tastes :D) can also love earlier songs...I'm 22 and love everything from the earliest EPs up to VLV..;)

I totally understand you, with these stress levels nowaday I wish I could leave it all behind and be the escapist.

wait, what ??

But still a really Harmless one !

Oh no, Joueur Froid. Seems like all your friends are gone !

Wait, is this Batman singing ??

Thanks for reminding me of Miracles. I knew I had forgotten something on my list !

On August 17th I'll be departing my old life for a new phase, so I so wish my prediction will come true ! Imagine I could have a new soundtrack for my adventure :stunned:

By the way, don't like Famous Old Painters... It somehow always sounds like a corporate advertisement melody for me (for example like the Samsung tune) Welcome to the forum, alexandeha17 !

I'd love to hear him crooning (vintage Coldplay, yeeeeeeeah, how long must you wait for iiiit ? ) and using some falsetto (Fix you style, NOT like in True love where it was awful), mixed with the occasional anger/urgency (like in Politik or A rush of blood to the Head)

OK, I'll now double back to the forgotten verse before we come to the final chorus: What if I got it wrrrooooooong ?

Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke One Direction stuff And everything that's currently played high and low on the radio ( I dunno if it's just the german radio or if you are subjected to this too): Lily Wood and the Prick and Robin Schulz: Prayer in C Felix Jaehn: Ain't Nobody, Loves Me Better feat. Jasmine Thompson

I'll repeat my prediction of the new single dropping on August 17th. Let's see if this comes true :cool:

I was 8 years old at the release of Yellow (approximately like you must have been, btw !!!!), and only got into Coldplay in 2012. But it doesn't matter WHEN you started loving Coldplay, what matters is that you do not only know the hits but also their lesser known songs/older works/B-sides. I often play the Safety and Brothers and Sisters EPs loud at home, and sometimes I think anyone passing close to the window will probably not know what it is. One comment on the POC discussion: Everyone who knows me here knows that I am an absolute Oldplayer, that AROBTTH and X&Y are my favourite albums and that I dislike most of the songs on MX and GS. Nevertheless, I wouldn't be so hard on POC. It sounds really "great" in the true sense of the word, and I love the slightly exotic melody it sounds with. Agree that Chris is really drowned out in this song though. While I share most of the anti-Rihanna sentiments here and don't want her in another Coldplay song, her featuring in a song doesn't necessarily mean it has to be bad. For example, Rihanna "Stay" feat. Mikky Ekko is a decent song.

Oh no, we forgot an entire verse ! (got it wrong..poem or song and so on !!) Nevertheless: That you don't want me there by your side ?

...that's the risk that you taaaaake !

Upbeat Coldplay songs need not be MX. Upbeat Coldplay songs they should take as inspiration include, in my opinion: Speed Of Sound Yellow Talk Lost Lovers in Japan Viva La Vida

Every step that you taaaaaaake....

Well to be honest I made fun of it because I thought it was a typo and you actually meant 2 years :D And I think a hiatus for 3-4 yrs after this album would be painful to us fans, but might really increase chances of Coldplay turning around radically from their way in pop music and maybe come back after a while with a resurgence of their initial style. So a hiatus would imho not necessarily be bad (if it is not permanent, of course !!!)

Thanks for your videos ! I am currently trying to redo it on my guitar but it's very difficult for me...I need some time I guess :-)

Thank you so much for video No. 1 !! Talk as much as you want, I like listening to this :) Amazing that you can't actually read music, apparently Chris can't either. I hope in the next part you can show where exactly you need to place your fingers and also about the rhythm. Just love the guitar sound in I Ran Away, I'd be so happy if I'd managed to play it by myself so I hope to learn it here :D Although I've got to admit that I've only got an extremely cheap guitar and a tiny desktop amp.

What ? Hopkins' Light Through The Veins is musically related to Life in Technicolor and the Escapist, but doesn't have anything to do with Mylo Xyloto, I'd think ??

Disappointing painting, really. "In the style of Mylo Xyloto Tour stage art" may be a tiny little bit exaggerated....that was the intention, sure, but the outcome ?

*dies honorably defending X&Y* :dead:

Breaking news: Coldplay go on hiatus for 2 days. Fans all over the world are speechless and shocked.
