Well I was gonna transcribe it by ear cause I didn't realize there was a hand-drawn sheet of it, so instead I just transcribed that. Here it is in a neat and readable form.

I'm probably gonna spend an hour or two working out the notes tomorrow. I'll be sure to post them when I'm done.

I know the first thing I thought of when I heard the strings was Beatles. I'll have to listen to Rain again and look for comparisons though.

The first verse gives me the same feeling as DWCM. Maybe it's that the lyrics are a little similar... Anyone else think the same thing?

This is the reason I'm not buying the EP. What rubbish.

This song is fantastic. Outstanding. Maybe it will wear off after a few listens, but my that's my first impression. :D

This is Jay-Z rapping over the VLV version of Lost!. I don't like it. At all.

Neither video is really that great, though I like the 2nd a lot better. It's done very well, it just doesn't do much. The first one is crap. Too much Chris, the band is playing instruments that aren't even in the song and nothing really happens. Still, I love the very end of the first one where they break apart. I wish they'd show Chris doing something he's good at (piano, etc.). No offense to Chris worshippers, but I don't think he's a good dancer, at all. Maybe I need to lower my standards.

Orchestral double bass is played with a bow. Most modern rock uses are finger plucked though.

Help Is Round The Corner is released. It's a B-Side of Yellow. I think it's been decided that Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground turned into Strawberry Swing as well.

Out of the mouth of Jon Stewart himself: "Tomorrow night Coldplay!" :D

1984-1992 U2 surpasses anything Coldplay have ever done. That said, they crapped out after that... so I guess it's a toss up.

I'll be watching tomorrow night for sure. :D

Ted Koppel is going to be the guest on the 26th according to the Daily Show website... Strangely, there's nobody listed for the 25th. Coldplay maybe?! I hope.

Studio noises are part of the reason I love the outro of Warning Sign.

I felt the same way earlier, but now that I know most of the lyrics the vocals seem to stick out a little more. That is, except for Chinese Sleep Chant, but that was done on purpose.

Chinese Sleep Chant is the most Rush of Blood sounding track IMO. It reminds me most of One I Love.

So...no mention of who Prospekt is in the liner notes huh... That's disappointing. :\

There's a second or two of silence between them...around the 4 minute mark I think.

I wonder why Viva La Vida's lyrics are in the description of Yes...

It's simple and lovely. I don't know where all the hate is coming from. Reign of Love is a slow break in the middle of fast-paced Lovers and twisted Yes, which I think is a pretty cool juxtaposition.

The thing about the Grey's Anatomy song is that, when you use your ears to listen to it, it just sounds like DAAHF. The piano is the same, the lyrics are the same... It's THE SAME! How is there even a debate about this?

The first part goes like this: Eb Ab all winter we got carried away Eb Db Cm over on the rooftops lets get married
