Tnspieler1012: Ahhh, I agree with all of those! The bass in Sparks really makes the song. I love how it responds to Chris' voice when he says "And I saw sparks..." do do do dooooo. Ah love it. Everything's Not Lost has a groovy one too, I find that it gives the song that extra bit of life it needs, and it contrasts all the mellow layers of instruments above it. Works really well. Things I Don't Understand is, I agree, one of his best! It basically IS the song. Plus I love the lyrics in that one too, I dont understand how it got left off X&Y at all. I could go on forever, but I would just be repeating what other people have already said :wink:

Double Post :S

Here it is on the official site: http://www.coldplay.com/video.php By clicking this link: Anyone remember that this was the same symbol that Prospekt put into one of his journals, and we were debating what the symbol might mean? Interesting.

Well as long as you don't decide to spam us to kingdom come, I don't see why you can't stay. Personally I won't be retaliating by ripping up Atease, but unfortunately I can't speak for other members here who may not be as forgiving :P (Although I know we're mostly nice guys here). I hear you with how X&Y was a slight disappointment after the first two albums (AROBTTH being my favourite), but this fourth album is looking to be a very interesting one. If you are interested I recommend you read this article here: http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44995 It definitely sounds like they've tried new things and pushed boundaries, and I'm almost certain it will be better than X&Y. Hopefully a progression. Anyway thanks for explaining :smiley:

Haha, thanks for that :P MUST. STOP. RAMBLING.

FRANK: Maybe I'll silver spray-paint a mouse for you... CHRIS: You mean, a real LIVE mouse!? JONNY: Oh poor mouse! CHRIS: Poor little mouse! Haha that was so random but it was hilarious! :lol:

OMG so much new stuff today! :dance: Lets give this a listen...

Oh man, this sounds PHENOMENAL. Where to start? Well the fact that 'The Escapist' is actually slightly different to 'LIT' and it has lyrics makes me very happy, because its actually now a song in its own right. Hooray! (Plus, I loooove how DAAHF is supposed to fade into it - I love it when tracks flow together). Oh, and I am actually really releaved that 'Violet Hill' is actually different to most of the other songs on the album... which sound like they are mostly drenched with strings and organs and atmospheric guitar. Which is more the sound I would like to hear from them. I'm starting to like the sound of Strawberry Swing, I think it might be the most 'experimental' song on the album. A didgeridoo? I could SWEAR someone on here was joking about how Guy could mix it up on stage by playing that instrument. And now its come true? How many psycics do we have on this board?! :P But yes, the drums and bass part of this song I'm looking forward to, as they hinted that they drive the song more than usual. And is it just me, or does 'Yes' sound like an evolution of 'A Bucket For A Crown'? The way its described immediately reminds me of that song. It also sounds like its going to be the saddest song on the album. And I'm really intrigued by Chinese Sleep Chant, seeing as it sounds very atmospheric, which I'm very much into. Its funny that Chris' lyrics are apparently totally incomprehensible. And 42 sounds AWESOME... even though I would have liked it to be a Hitch hiker's Guide reference, but never mind. The fact that Chris is saying that 42 is a perfect number, I think is hinting that this might be a near perfect song. And haha, I like the story behind COL... with Markus Dravs german accent and everything. Classic. Its interesting that, being 10 tracks and all, you would have thought that the songs themselves would be a little longer. And now we have Will saying that actually, this is the album with the most songs but with the shortest runtime. I don't know about you, but I didn't see that coming. Either way, it sounds really good. Gaaaah I'm so PUMPED! :dance: :dance: :dance: PS - Feel free to slap me for my rambling :dozey:

I just watched the whole thing, and this is what I think. This is a FAR SUPERIOR music video in a lot of ways - much more evocative, and it really does fit the lyrics the way the original should have done. Its also a perfect blend between satire, humour and real shocking images. Its far more effective. I can see why they didn't release this one as the official video, with all the violence and controversial issues it addresses... but I really think this shows what the song is about. And I noticed this was posted by the OFFICIAL Coldplay Youtube channel... so that means the band themselves have had a hand in this. This is more like it. Coldplay's first truly political video. Go Coldplay. I loved it.

Here's the link: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=9WqQL5WFN20 Monkey noises dubbed over a Bush speech? Brilliant.

Yay! Great to see our Radiohead brothers making an appearance! :dance: ... :dozey:

What? :inquisitive:

Yay! Sounds really good, thanks! I can hear handclaps too, I think.

Hey, I just found this Coldplay MTV promotion video on Youtube: I think it was just uploaded today... I'm surprised I havn't seen it before. Check it out, it pretty good.

Hahaha, dude you look awesome :cool: :laugh1: I havn't seen a 118 118 advert for months for some reason... they're so cheesy, but I miss them all the same.

Haha, i noticed this too! This guy MUST have inside information :sneaky: It is a freaky coincidence I have to say. I mean the drum and everything... eerily similar.

You know you're addicted to Coldplay when... 1. You stay up until 5AM in the morning on Coldplaying.com 2. You end up downloading every fake VLVODAAHF torrent out there, JUST in case its genuine (ok, maybe thats just stupidity :P) 3. You spend hours procrastinating by making Coldplay related avatars and sigs 4. You buy a record player for the sole purpose of playing Coldplay vinyls 5. The 12th of June is the best day of the year 6. You go into the nearest Apple store and immediately go on Youtube to watch 'See You Soon' Live 2003 on an iPod Touch 7. Your friends threaten to hit you around the head with your X&Y CD 8. You can't help but smile (and consequently look stupid) when a Coldplay song is played in a public area (like a music store) 9. Your name is Semy.

Thank you sooooo much! :dance:

If you can, that would be great! Thank you :D

^ Thank you for discovering it any way! :D I'm sure I'll get to see it soon.

Nope, not at all :dozey:

Argh, that site is absolutely useless... I can barely get 10 seconds into the video! :sad: I hope someone manages to rip it for us :nice:

Gah, its not playing properly for me at all :sad:

I think this might prove that the full title is indeed VLVODAAHF. Anyway it a great video, thanks! :nice:

Hahaha, that one is crazy! :laugh1:
