[rosepuff321]

Does anyone else think the beginning of this sounds like Taylor Swift's "Haunted?"

[sarrawh]

Put your headphones on.

When I first found this, I was worried that if I played it my head would explode.

[runnersforlife1]

[manicpsychogirl]

@runnersforlife1 never tried it but I totally agree

it's very rythmic

[coldplaygleek]

Breathtaking! My wedding song.

[Gasfiend]

When your 'Like' bar is literally 100x larger than your 'Dislike" bar, I think you can officially call it a day

[origamianiac800]

@Gasfiend

Actually it's closer to 1000x larger, only thirteen away

[hannahshimwell]

being played at my funeral

[ledzepelinfreak]

I need to stop listening to this song, I don't listen to anything else.

[revelri]

Just closed my eyes and listened to this. Simply heavenly music!

[sephiroth1018]

[ManUtdBigJoe]

Great song. they should do "Paradise" next.

[killerrabbit401]

[GeneralBritishness]

These people have reminded me why I fell in love with string music all over again. This is purely gorgeous. I love it.

[AKBALMOON]

[cdbassswim]

why...why cant music go back to its original beautiful harmonies, orchestras, bands, and all the other things that made music amazing...now it all about cussing, rape, drinking, smoking, sex...makes me sick. the old stuff was sometimes about it but they sung it from their LIFE and it made it real

[laypyu]

Where is the "Love" button, YouTube? :(

[CorpseGr1nd90]

13 people are deaf.

[moviefanaticqueen]

@CorpseGr1nd90 Technically 14...

[infinitesporkage]

@moviefanaticqueen His post was made 3 months ago, there's a high chance that the 14th dislike was made after.

[lolaanna53]

@CorpseGr1nd90  14

[stevesdebbie]

Absolutely beautiful! This is how the song was meant to be heard.

[MrGalway10]

i just burst into tears 4 no reason

[QuantumMythics]

@MrGalway10 Pffft, what do you mean "No Reason?" There's plenty of reason. The sheer beauty of the piece could make any grown man cry.

[AleePandiitha]

i already loved this song but with this version i just cant stop listening over and over again!

amazing!

[HulloKat]

God, I just want to burst into tears! 

[JingchengZhao]

It's nice that people are playing modern music on classical instruments, but this is pretty badly recorded and arranged. Sorry.

[erantio]

@JingchengZhao I'd like to see you do better.

[JingchengZhao]

@erantio sure, i'll link you when after I have it mastered.

[sonmay05]

"My apologies to past loves for thinking that the latest is the first."

[HeroicJello]

After singing this at a friend's memorial service, I didn't think I could ever listen to it again, but this is so beautiful i can't help but smile :')

[Kethis256]

@31DogKing

[leonardofranco2]

@31DogKing Dude i love Heavy Metal and i think this is mindblowing, so please don't jump into conclusions.

[TribalWolfFurry]

@31DogKing I like metal, but I like this stuff too :D

[MrDavidBenavent]

Listen to Coldplay while playing Minecraft. It's amazing.

[musicmama888]

If this was just a few beats slower, it would be the perfect song, because then the emotion would cut right into me instead of stopping at the surface

[Deirel0]

This is a wordless piece of poetry that born from the heart of many people, and that VSQ reflected in its music. Thanks VSQ for giving us a masterpiece that can be with us from the rest of our lives.

[FullMetalSatomi]

Nobody can listen to VSQ without feeling any kind of emotions. <3

[mroliekan]

Where is this fucking awesome quartet from?

I really want to see them play live,

next year they must be on Pinkpop in the Netherlands.

P.s for all suicidal people: Pinkpop is best music Event in the Netherlands, bands like simple plan and foo fighters, and coldplay have played there

[GabyB23C]

Just....... Awesome what else can you say

[betoanne07]

I was very drunk last night, so I had no idea what I was saying to be honest :P

[xsugarfreex]

@TheDarkFrontier lol reading that comment just brightened my day

[TheDarkFrontier]

@swhitworth10791

No I didn't. I know he was referring to no bass guitar.

[myfourloves1999]

beautiful!

[ZephImmortal]

I thought this was a wonderful song, but I had to laugh that they didn't mention the bass' beauty in the song's description. ;D

Cellos FTW.

[thetoastedcorn]

@ZephImmortal dude this a quartet. they have 2 violins, a cello, and a viola...no bass.

[TheDarkFrontier]

@thetoastedcorn

A cello is a bass instrument

[Coraliepengy]

Beautiful

[ilovelinx]

Right here is a band who can take the worlds favorite, most beautiful songs: make them better, and allow us to fall in love with them all over again.

[ktmist]

@ilovelinx

WORD.

[USful]

@ilovelinx Erm... it is a quartet... not a band, a quartet, but i agree with you 100 percent!

[GB4ManU7fan]

[cmx41]

[CobaltBlueProduction]

@Naraic666

@007Kiristo

@Cockatooprince ...and I thought I was the only one who did this...

[DELPHIIII]

@CobaltBlueProduction

@Naraic666

@007Kiristo

@Cockatooprince

And I thought -I- was weird for playing an invisible piano every time I hear The Scientist (One of the most beautiful songs of the last 46 millenniums)

[tinierthanthou1]

stunning

[raitekteresina]

Simplesmente divino, isso é musica de qualidade,um dom de DEUS.

[007Kiristo]

This is my favorite VSQ cover.  I hadn't even heard the original song til I listened to this...it's so wonderful.

[Naraic666]

Who else found themselves conducting an invisible orchestra with their fingers in an absent minded manner?

[007Kiristo]

@Naraic666 I've almost crashed my car doing this...

[cockatooprince]

@Naraic666 aaaah. You know when you don't notice something till someone points it out and then it's ruined?

Thanks a lot T______T

[femaleStudent]

@Naraic666

*raises hand* I don't know why I do it but I can't help it :-D (oh no, Im doing it again...)

[justjayit777]

the instrument doing the melody (dunno if it's violin or viola and don't really care) sounds a little too whiney, as if a lot of the notes are slightly sharp or flat - maybe it's the tone quality or something but it's just not pleasant to the ear

[Aberforthlongbottom]

They must really like coldplay as much as i do

[Aberforthlongbottom]

I heared this at a wedding, it was so good i needed to know who sang it cause it was amazing and blew my mind especialy with the chello

[invaiderzen]

@Aberforthlongbottom You spelled Cello wrong.

[TimYuFansClub]

So so beautiful!!

[sinnerzaint]

what douchebag disliked this? eat shit and die

[invaiderzen]

Beautiful. Just lovely. Compared to the rest of the crap this world has to offer, this is a beautiful song and deserves more .

[curegirl0421]

Gives me chills.



[XagonogaX]

I am now seriously considering this one of my all time favorite songs. Evah.

[DukeLacrosse13]

O O |= =| ^ ^

Hugs all around

[pktech34]

amazing and beautiful

[DJXSaryux]

11 people started listening after 4:53........This is just beautiful...its amazing how an something like a string instrument can change a song's perspective completely.(or in other words make it 10x more with emotion)...;')

[ser2117]

where can I find the sheet of this song?

[hecklord]

it gives me a lot of chills...

[uKILLEDkenny442]

I just began listening to VSQ...I'm searching to see if they've done Run by Snow Patrol...if they do...I'll cry. That was our song. </3 This is beautiful....

[Vindiction96]

The only bad thing about this situation is that I have to do math homework whilst listening.

[cot12]

11 people are idiot

[MultiFungalFootFace]

this succesfully made me cry... only thirty seconds into the song. wow. amazing.

[patie023]

coldplay songs are really great, the VSQ made them even better. very soothing

[eunisque]

it makes me cry

[shadownegitive]

Dislikes?! what?!

[dannyman0513]

Thumbs up if you took the original version in a separate window and tried to match it up with this one... (doesn't work very well but both are awesome songs) watch?v=EdBym7kv2IM if you wanna try.

[katylunger]

Giving me chills...

[KirbyAndLink]

These guys need to remake Pendulum songs.

[tommietippie2]

@KirbyAndLink Pendulum need to make some songs that don't sound the same as all their others.

[KirbyAndLink]

@tommietippie2

They are all unique.

[Cosmalaya]

i love it... <3

[CheckedShirtPianist]

Absolutely Beautiful.

[balegarcia]

it is so beautiful.

[RazorsharpLT]

I wonder if coldplay knows about this.

[liljon3369]

this music reminds me that im still alive. it makes me remember that i can still FEEL.

[Blagous12kikiwi]

Eu amo essa musica, apesar de ser instrumental...

Nossa! Só tem gente que fala inglês aqui... Só eu do Brasil.

[francoviski2]

@Blagous12kikiwi não, não é só vc do brasil não :D

[roselivasconcellos]

@Blagous12kikiwi Eu tbm gosto desse som e estou aki pra te fazer companhia...afinal somos brasileiros e naum desistimos nunca...bj

[roselivasconcellos]

Eu tbm gosto desse som e estou aki pra te fazer companhia...afinal somos brasileiros e naum desistimos nunca...bj

[96solo]

2:40.. it just grabs a hold of me.. my favorite part of this piece.

:D

[Prokovieflove]

boring arrangement

[TheTimeTraveler100]

@Prokovieflove I beg to differ.

[TheoBrixtonTheKid]

@Prokovieflove So is your ugly fuckin face.

[plainjane108]

This is so so beautiful. On the violin its sounds so plaintive and hearbreaking.The Scientist is "my song", I relate to it. I've found almost every version done. Like the acoustic by Chris Martin and the intrumental. This owns them all.

[fedemusica88]

Only one word.... PERFECT!!!!! Is so sensitive, so sweet!!!! I love it!!!! Congrats!!! you really caught the meaning of making music...

[marineswilldefeatyou]

this music that your making is beautiful. i love all of the songs by them selfs but when you do it, its something more then music. very good strees reliver.

[joke4908]

I can feel my emotions leaking out of me just by listening to this...

[danceaustindance]

this touched my soul in places it's never been touched before...thank you vitamin string quartet for making such beautiful music

[ProfessorCrow]

2:40 and onward how they recreate the background vocals ...Soul wrenching.

[gaeazadriel]

what the hell, how is anything this beautiful

[v13tpride1]

[musicalxkiwi99]

[hanthoneee]
