Chris is so cooool......look at him on my live video at o2 Arena 10/12/2011. This song is really one of the best of the world. You will see chris doing a great show in this song from minute 3. trust me...."
I Have to say I liked this one alot, love how they used both "Violet Hill" and the apple iTunes commercial of "Viva la Vida" version for this, it worked out great.
Ok who honestly gives 2 shits about the meaning of the song. It's a good song that's all people care about. No one wants to hear your opinion about the meaning. Everyone has there own meaning and that's for them and them only. And again I tell you NO ONE GIVES A SHIT so stop telling people what the "meaning" is or isn't. Maybe it dosnt have one. No one knows. it's for them to find out so leave it alone
i think this is about Louis the XVI, the lyrics match what happened to him; also it would give more meaning to the cover artwork of the album (a painting signifying lady liberty during the french revolution)
@mbaicu I got it. But what's the thing with Jerusalem? I guess he's talking about crusades that happened centuries before French Revolution and which are not related to what happened to Louis XVI (not the XVI ;) )
French revolution was based on social and political revendications.
I think the theme of the song can be larger, about ambitions, power and decline.
But I really love that song, probably their best one so far.
I think it could more match Napoleon's life, talking about ambitions.
How a powerful king who can can rise sea when he gave his word,with his fragile life where a minute he held key,next the walls were closed on him and revolutionaries wait his head on a silver plate, but still he has passion to struggle his life with his sword and shield(somehow it's not remind me to Napoleon but Return of the King movie^^)
@Janforth04 It's about napoleon. Look at the cover of the album and it shows the ever famous picture depicting the French Revolution. The people overthrew the king, and Napoleon soon came into power. He would ultimately lose power after conquering most of Europe. If you look at the lyrics, you'll definitely see this.
@zekeanator2 Yep your right, its quite a lot of the Violet Hill video, playing to the Viva la Vida song, the bits in between are clips from the Viva la Vida itunes promo. it all works well though, well done =]
the second video thing looks way familiar... what's it from?

For me this song is about passion of life
How a powerful king who can can rise sea when he gave his word,with his fragile life where a minute he held key,next the walls were closed on him and revolutionaries wait his head on a silver plate, but still he has passion to struggle his life with his sword and shield(somehow it's not remind me to Napoleon but Return of the King movie^^)

Ah wish can do that
