These are great! Though I like Prague orchestra's version better. And here's another great cover: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWuqtNl0Bog]YouTube - Scala & Kolacny Brothers - Yellow (Coldplay cover)[/ame]

This guy has a little better version of fingering, and also a short tab included in the description: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI12Uqqeveo]YouTube - Coldplay - Christmas Lights (Acoustic Guitar Cover)[/ame]

Ok, what I did for now is that I started making a tutrial for this song. You can check out the first part here: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0yqbuVOV6E]YouTube - How to play Christmas Lights by Coldplay on Piano (Part 1: The Intro)[/ame]

TF5092, thanks! The Champion, thanks! You're right, the "and I'm still waiting" part was the toughest to learn. I'm not sure how to make it better. In the song, it's the piano, the voice and the strings, combined in a weird yet very pleasant harmony... I'd like to play it better. Maybe I need to spend a couple more evenings trying to perfect it :)

Hi guys! :) I liked the new christmas single so much that I decided to make a piano cover. I learned it by ear, had to spend several evenings for that... I got even more determined to make a cover after I listened to the existing ones on the YouTube... I find those overly straightforward, and also not very accurate. I hope you'll like my version better :) P.S. I mounted the camera on the top, so that anyone who wants to learn this song would see the keyboard and understand what I'm playing.

Well, if Coldplay was over, there would be some new band. Probably a warmer one :-P After all, Paul McCartney made some good pieces even after the Beatles disbanded.

From the preview, it indeed looks very close to what I figured out by ear :) On the other hand, you can't see what goes afterwards (and that's more complex parts), so somebody has to try it out.
