hey guys pay attention to the first part at , 1:21 chris is singin the lyrics 'where victorian ghosts pray' again although he already did before!! did he just forget the lyrics or was that on purpose???
chris does that sometimes xD i noticed things like that. i think he does it every performance of like every song :) but he can pull it off. he's Chris Martin for pete's sake!
for those that say he sings flat at concerts don't know what there talking about because he goes on singing tours were he goes around the world in one week basically
Actually, when this songs done live, they don't bother tuneing the guitars down half a step, so Chis is singing perfectly along with the tune of the live version of this song. Excellent video, amazing quality, but maybe some more shots of Jonny, this song totally shows his skill. Coldplay rules!
I truly love this song. It's my favorite on the album. However in the video i don't get why Chris sang it so flat during the first half, it makes it horrible.
If you don't see what is so amazing about a quartet with 2 members that can play the piano, 3 members that can play guitar a drummer that can play violin. Plus the actuall lead guitarist and bassman, who each can play at least 2 instruments. AND a lead singer who plays piano, guitar and harmonica.
oh relax, it's not like they're virtuosos or anything, they play rather simple parts. pretty much all gifted musicians can play many many instruments, and it isn't a miracle for a band to be comprised of such people
Dakedoom is completely right. Coldplay is amazing but all four of them can only play other instruments decently. If all of them could shred on the guitar that WOULD be amazing.
well, if the whole of coldplay could shred on guitar, then that would make their various roles kinda ambiguous wouldn't it ?
I mean just think for example, the RHCP, if Flea could solo on guitar just as good as Frusciante, and Frusciante could play bass just as fast as Flea....then it wouldn't look as kool.
lol your telling me i went to the radio 2 up close and personal gig last month. out of all their great songs and they didn't. meh oh well still an amazing experience :D
damn i missed them playing this song! sucks san jose was so early in the tour. this is one of my favorite songs from the new album. this performance isn't actually so great though...
great quality, thanks a lot! :)
