Coldplay Tatts. (not boobs) So I've been toying with the idea of getting a Coldplay tattoo for years. But I literally for the life of me, can not decide which lyric/s I should get. Has anybody here got any or got any suggestions for lyrics? I was talking to Lucy on FB earlier about it and thought it would make an interesting thread. The idea I think I'm most into is getting 'Give me Love over this...' on the small of my back. but... I don't know. okay, shoot!

or how many bottles of wine you've had ;)

I'm on my 37th play. it's the most listened song on my entire ituned library and I've had it about 3 hours. (I don't listen to music on my laptop that often, ha)

Touché, oracle, touché.

also, some of the nativity stuff in the background like the fish and the rocket, was that CGI'd in? I don't remember those being there. and it looks kinda animated-y

Yellow vs Christmas Lights (had to be done :P)

Yeah, I saw them raise chris up to the piano a few times and then that's when I went. They REALLY filmed it out of sequence! lol. I'd seen them film the entire fireworks bit, which took them 3 hours for about 15 seconds! :lol:

nope, it's dry and cold and horrible, but no snow. Bah, Humbug! yeah I spoke to chris and said hey, and then later a few other coldplayers met the whole band. top night.

noted, :P

it's amazing. I'll DM you a link on twitter.

Well, not per sé VEVO posted the video on their site for about an hour at 5am this morning it's since been taken back down but while it was up people ripped it and ripped the audio from that. :)

ha, yeah, and fuck EMI :P

it's a charity single? where does it say this? I think I missed that.

that makes sense. by the way, to people who are still listening to it on tumblr. you can download it in mp3 format from a link in my signature, but I'm not telling you which one go figure! :P EDIT: ps. the video is AWESOME.

I got bored and took the time to transcribe the lyrics. all but one lyric, I think I'm bang on the money. Christmas night, another fight, tears we cried a flood, Got all kinds of poison in, poison in my blood. Took my feet to oxford street, Trying to right a wrong; Just walk away, those windows sing, and I can't believe she's gone. When your still waiting for the snow to fall; It doesn't really feel like christmas at all. A couple of candles only flicker Oh they flicker and they float and I'm up here holding on to all those chandeliers of hope, Like some drunken out there singing, I go singing out of tune; Singing how I always loved you darling and I always will, But when your still waiting for the snow to fall; It doesn't really feel like christmas at all. [X2] Those christmas lights, light up the street Down where the sea unsettled me, [this line is almost certainly wrong/can't figure it!] May all your troubles soon be gone Oh christmas lights, keep shining on. Those christmas lights light up the street Maybe they'll bring her back to me, and then all my troubles they'll be gone Oh christmas lights, keep shining on. [instrumental + Awesome boat singers] Oh oh oh OHHHH oh oh, oh-oh. Oh christmas lights light up the street Light up the fireworks in me May all your troubles soon be gone Those christmas lights, keep shining on.

I've actually heard a few sources claim (though they may be unreliable) that this is on LP5 and isn't just a one-off christmas release; that would be neat.

Ha! I can hear the conversation now in the hospital. Gwynnie: You know, I really like 'Apple' Chris: Are you fucking kidding me? it's a fruit. Gwynnie: but it's SO pure and refreshing. Chris: Meh... They make all my favourite iOS devices, fine, you win, but the NEXT one is being biblical!

^ chris is a Mac user? right on.

Yeah! absolutely! and in the video (somebody ripped it for me) you can see me on the boat, I knew wearing that luminous jacket would come in handy! :D I have it on repeat, still not getting old. :dance:

Somebody will have tipped them off. there's always somebody in the know willing to make a quick buck.

Anytime, hombré

if anybody is interested I have ripped the audio from the tumblr page and have it in .mp3 format. I am not going to condone this action however, so please don't PM me for the link. Use your initiative and figure it out yourself. CLUE: yeah, that was too easy. :P

Yup, I hear ya. I'm in Southampton, which is UK (as you probably know :P) and it seems like this is the only city in the UK where it isn't snowing at all :( a little yesterday morning but it won't lie. I've been feeling all kinds of emotions listening to Christmas Lights because it's like, I was there! y'know? and seeing the finished product of the video is so fulfilling because we watched them put it together afterwards. This might be my new favourite Coldplay song because of the added meaning it has. Best night of my life the night they made the video for this. :D

:nice: hearing our singing on top of the song... Squeeeeeeee

:D When I listen to it I just keep thinking of all the things that happened on the boat and everything we did. This is so much cooler than just listening to any old new coldplay song. :D
