I've always been interested in this recurring theme in Coldplay songs. I decided to put together a list of how prominent it really is. I came up with
Birds, up & up- HFOD
O- Ghost Stories
Up with the Birds- Mylo Xyloto
Now my feet won't touch the ground- Prospekt's March
Speed of Sound-X&Y
Strawberry Swing- Viva la Vida
For You- Shiver EP
No More Keeping My Feet on the Ground- Yellow EP
Can you coldplayers think of any others, or give a reason why one of these don't really apply to this list.
Anyone know if in the past they have explained their affection for birds and the thought of flying.
