hey hey hey. i am relatively new. i love the video. (i was kinda getting tired of them performing) I think what she meant was a lot of these "new members" only have one or 2 posts, and they're not defending their argument maturely. Sometimes I wonder if it's the same person... Sort of like when Coldplay canceled their shows back in September and we had this huge influx of new members all bitching about the band. I don't think she meant new members as in you, or anything. Of course, I'm speaking for someone else, but yeah. Know what I'm saying? :lol:

I don't feel like quoting 10 messages of people who don't understand the video, so I'll stick with just one. But seriously, what are you basing the comment that "it was the worst video you've ever seen!" on? Are you watching the video? Like actually watching it. Looking past the B-movie style to see that everything that is happening is symbolic of the meaning of the song. Think while you watch. I've tried to explain the video in a small amount of space but I can't do it justice. I could write 10 pages on it. It's brilliant. Fix You, and Speed of Sound were not good videos. Chris Martin walking around until he gets to a concert has nothing to do with the song Fix You. The guys playing in front of a giant equalizer has nothing to do with Speed of Sound. Ya, the pretty lights were entertaining for a minute, but the video had no point. This video on the other hand, is exactly what the song is about. And it's told in a quirky, fun, and extremely creative way with the B-movie feel. Outer space is the only setting that I can think of for this video, and I don't know if it would be as meaningful if it was filmed from a very serious perspective. (Chris and the guys on the international space station? Idunno.) So for those of you who dislike it, try watching it, and try to understand it. I can assure you it's very meaningful, and quite symbolic. Anton Corbjin is a creative genius. I should really right a definitive guide to understanding this video. Oh, and another thing, for those of you who were dissapointed, a month ago Corbjin said to the public, "Well, it is black and white, and slightly strange, as is often the way in my videos, I guess. It will have a certain B-movie feel to it, but I cannot say more than this for now." So, it seems to live up to exactly what he told you it was going to be. I couldn't agree with you more. :thumbsup: If only people articulated themselves as intelligently as that, on both sides, then maybe we could get a fair fan critique of this video.

Oh no, I meant her performing is a joke, since it's all prerecorded anyways :lol: :lol: I wish she'd just take her newfound emo self and go faaaaaar far away. Far away from all microphones and paparazzi.

Beautiful isn't it? Ansel Adams was a magician with a camera lense. Someday I wish I could take a photo half that beautiful.

That's a joke!!! Ha ha ha! :lol: :lol: :dozey:

I'm sure Coldplay gets your alien humor. haha. Get it? I get it. :uhoh:

I understood it! :lol: :lol: :kiss:

Is this the American Music Awards? Those were on tonight? They didn't perform, right? Whoo! I can't believe they're still alternative though :lol: But good for them!!

*high five* I feel this is going to be a love it or hate it video, it's all a matter of taste. Personally, I think it just fit my humor and I got a kick out of it :lol: :lol:

Yes!!! :lol: :) Oh my gosh, they are all too cute to be legal. Honestly!!! :blush:

Anxiety needs a kick in the balls, honestly.

:lol: I see. I wanted to write something on that, and for some reason I decided to do "LMFAO LMFAO". I have no clue why. I did laugh my ass off when I saw it, and damn it hurt! :lol: :P Jane... I love you. Oh my........ :stunned: THANK YOU!!! *goes off to watch immediately!!!!*

you've never seen it? No............. :stunned: Why do I always miss these things?? "LMFAO" about what? :lol:

No, he's never killed U2. :lol: :lol:

:huh:

^^Oh my god where did your sig animation come from???

Thanks, :lol: :lol: Chris has the best facial expressions in that video, I love it.

I dunno. Mine's always resetting. It's so friggin annoying, because I never notice until a little bit into the video. Boo.

At the front of the Coldplayer you'll see a little... thing with the "picture" of two people. Click on that: And a thing will come up. There you can adjust the volume from 0% to 100%. Also you can make the resolution of the video high instead of low. Hope this helps you out! :)

:bigcry: :lol:

:cry:

:thumbsup:

I fixed it, got rid of all the white. Hah, you're welcome. I tried not to make him look like a Victoria's Secret model ;) :lol:

I didn't mean to yell at anyone, and I certainly didn't want to offend. I just hate to see people bicker. I accept anyone's apology, it didn't offend ME, I was just worried that it would offend other people. AKA people who are a bit higher up than us like mods, or site administrators, or Coldplay themselves. I know that if this were the official board Debs would never go for that, and I think we should keep a fairly similiar etiquette here. Let us all unite hands, form a circle and sing songs! :lol: :P
