    Wow i feel dumb. It comes out on my birthday though!!!!!!!!
  3. I think they name U2 as the main inspiration don't they?
    But they will never even come close to reaching their heights.
    Can't stand 'em. Who names their kid Apple?
  4. Hey,
    Thanks for posting this Vid. I hadn't seen it yet!!

    Interesting how Coldplay uses political aspect for this song. I'm trying to figure out how to relate the President and ploitics with "If you love me, Why don't you let me go?"
    But having read the lyrics I can begin to understand, what it might mean.

    Was a long and dark December
    From the rooftops, I remember
    There was snow, white snow

    Clearly I remember
    From the windows, they were watching
    While we froze down below

    When the future's architectured
    By a carnival of idiots on show
    You'd better lie low

    If you love me, won't you let me know?

    Was a long and dark December
    When the banks became cathedrals
    And the frost became God

    Priests clutched onto Bibles
    Hollowed out to fit their rifles
    And the cross was held aloft

    Bury me in armour
    When I'm dead and hit the ground
    My love's a pond that unfroze

    And if you love me, won't you let me know?

    I don't want to be a soldier
    Who the captain of some sinking ship
    Would stow far below

    So if you love me, why'd you let me go?

    I took my love down to Violet Hill
    There we sat in snow
    All that time, she was silent still
    So if you love me, won't you let me know?
    If you love me, won't you let me know?

    The video does seem to be U2ish. I was talking about that today with a guy at work. How Bands are influenced by U2!! I think as long as we have idiots run the show, the ZOO will remain open!!

    I also agree on that guitar solo, having looked at the lyrics, This song has alot to say, And that solo could have said more. Just my opinion!!
    Still awesome song, Awesome Coldplay!!

    I believe Radiohead is the band which influenced them the most.
    At least, that's what they say

    A Sort Of Outcoming would be more relevant..

    lol!!


    BTW, don't know about music, but lyrically, judging by Viva La Vida and Violet Hill, they've made a HUGE improvement...musically, it's different from their previous work, can't be compared easily...
  9. Not the best song I've heard from Coldplay, but certainly a different music direction. I just hope Chris experiments more with his voice, rather than the bands sound.
  10. Originally posted by U2NickI think that Coldplay is trying to hard to be U2. Check out this video:


    [YouTube Video]

    Doesn't the theme look a little, 'familiar'? I guess the ZOO didn't close.

    sorry if this isn't in the right place Come to think of it, this should go in the "Coldplay new Album" forum, or whatever its called.


    agree
  11. Violet Hill is a great song, but, man, the video doesn't belong to Coldplay. It has a totally ZooTV theme. See those rockets...looks a bit like UTEOTW, doesn't it?
