Violet Hill (Dancing Politicians)

[Eezaspanner]

We are the idiot who dance to their tune.

great vid.

[fhenrique41]

GENIAL!

[lees2oo8]

the end of this is perfect

[carmgn56]

I love how Obama comes up once the lyrics say ''carnival of idiots on show''.

[HinduComingThrough]

LOL at bush!!

[1TmanTM]

this is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!

[DiannaTheWhirlie273]

This is pretty frickin awesome.

[Luckyman187]

This video shows the essence of our stupid world.

[sumintookish]

I love how only Coldplay could make such a serious point about warfare and politics and put it in an amusing video. The message is all too clear if you watch and maybe that's why people don't like it.

[pabloindustries]

Love the last 35 seconds :)

[tehsuperepicpwnzor]

I don't understand how anyone can say that they like Obama, but not Bush, or they like Bush, but not Obama. Truly, the two are almost exactly the same in their policies - both are Socialist, Globalist, Interventionist career politicians.

[arcticmonker]

bush is the conducter of death

[AngelofWolves]

matt whitecross + coldplay = genious

[AngelofWolves]

lol awesome!! now we just need one of Cameron and Obama

[arcticmonker]

@AngelofWolves obamas beast

[MrGeneralGOW]

Heheheh

-Bush

[orlandobramb]

was that Obama at 1:09 ?

[TheKGB93]

This is brilliant!

[hoh8511no]

this music sucks after 3:41

[TheMissHysteria]

@hoh8511no you're right :) this my friends , is a clip video !!!!!

[OverTheWrestling]

FUCK NIXON,FUCK W.BUSH

[ANIASath]

Cold play music + videos = POWERFUL

[11kopitar]

from 3:05 to 3:40 ......... maybe the best coldplay piano version ! <3

[erossskywalker]

Hitler, Stalin, Bush, Blair, Mao, Kim Jong il, Pol Pot must have been amongst those 142..

[revoultion86]

bang on video all dancing puppets

[hardelaphant]

that was sooo cool you just made my day!!!!

[HypoTurtleProduction]

@TheFremont66 141 angry Boris Yeltsin Accounts

[stocholmuk]

Speechless! really! the song has deep meaning, great job man, you have made a great video mate!

[electricalstar]

If only all explosions could end in a beautiful fireworks display instead of death...Power, what a son of a bitch...

[MultiKisaku96]

141 n00bs

[kkkthebassist]

thats a fucking great video!!!

[eduricieri]

Realy amazing! Ever I see this video I think your actuallity is present

[Spec0pps117]

wht is with the "dancing politicians"... is it for them, or against them?

Why the fuck does everyone hate Bush? Why do I have to ask these questions?

But seriously reply...

[Jacofblades]

@Spec0pps117 i think no-one likes him coz he sent america to war with iraq but im not sure

[Ligierthegreensun]

@Spec0pps117 Destabilizing a prospering economy, invading a nation based on lies and then denying it, sending thousands of soldiers to their death, not to mention civilians in Iraq. Take your pick.

[SickPianos]

amazing video.

[7BJDX]

great song/video

[VideoKiwi2008]

funny video!! 

[MultiKisaku96]

FUCK BUSH

[IvanoSlim]

hahahahaha this is so funny! but true:/

[L4L01]

La verdad no creo que entiendan el video, o talvez yo lo entiendo mal. Me da un coraje ver a los politicos gozando de una vida sin problemas (bailando como idiotas burlandose de nosotros) mientras nosotros, el pueblo hacemos la guerra, luchamos por ideas nacionalistas absurdas...

Desearia acabar con esos politicos de manera mas cruel que con lo que ellos han hecho sufrir a muchos soldados y familias inocentes, bebiendo sangre inocente.

El terrorismo lo han hecho nadie mas que los politicos...

[L4L01]

@L4L01 Me falto decir que es una cancion de protesta...

[TheAvengerGear]

@L4L01 Eaeaea asi se habla wey..

[TheAvengerGear]

@L4L01 Eaeaea asi se habla wey..



[khamani90]

[avothear]

original and amazing video

Coldplay 4 ever !!!!!!!!!

[codigo413]

awsome

[HeNrYTG50]

How is Obama there if it is a video of 2008?

[lardlord3]

@HeNrYTG50 he was a governer and threw his vote in before the 2nd video release. good guess?

[anilduth]

@HeNrYTG50 dude..what do you think???? Obama was born after 2008???

[atryeu74]

@HeNrYTG50 He wasn't president yet in this video. He was just running for office.

[Doodlelord]

Bush is a chimp...

[aristottlesdeathwish]

I love how they said they got the inspiration for this by watching bill orielly.

[leandro216]

da brividi.......................­.........

[Steviejamurself]

[maynardsheep]

140 deaf people

[motorsport1000]

simply. great and funny

[ludicrouspumpkin]

omg this is awesome. gosh reality is disturbing..

[Sara10393]

god this video is just absolutely brilliant. I knew it from the first time I heard this song it was about the corruption in governments these days. such a powerful song!

[ThiagoFrodo1]

Bush is a murderer, creator of wars and conflicts! Money and power always cause wars, confrontations and conflicts! Oil, land and power! Meanwhile, lost thousands and thousands of lives, where peace does not exist! I hate all politicians, of all countries, including my own, I'm Brazilian and I hate all politicians, hypocrites, cowards, murderers!

[bluzy25]

what a video! Exactly the truth!

[CodeNamedKara]

very satirical video.. excellent song

[aohaho]

This clip reflects what happen in our world..

and this is littel part of the truth..

there's lot of things you dont know..

this is part of our daily..

sent from israel

[alexanderwotl]

Bush, Putin, Obama, Merkel, Berlusconni, Bin Laden and etc.---BLOODY IDIOTS!

[aohaho]

@alexanderwotl

right u r



[KindomOfHappiness]

@alexanderwotl Amen, brother :-)

[darthyao]

Tongue is the small chunks they show corruption D: the song gives me a feeling of sad On having seen to the government and his corruption but the song is brilliant :D

[fabiocaraffa]

this video is amazing,and being satirycal, also says true things.good job

[JulietteDawson]

coldplay will never stop surprising me. this video says more than a thousand speeches. so: BRAVO, COLDPLAY!! (once again)

[Meg1JbCpMb]

Amazing!

[greenhalos725]

It's good to see Coldplay again. I loved how their songs relax me into a calm feeling especially this video). I still love the song.

[revo117]

hahahaha the nigga fidel castro fell hahahahaha lmao

[bluexgene]

awesome choreography of clips. I love this, I love coldplay :-D

[Elysha843]

Just absolutely can't get enough of this style. Don't Stop producing more great music. . . these sounds are urging me to devise completely modern vibes!! See some more excellent music over at my yt profile.

[Crossfade1992]

It's great to see they can all have fun =] They have a load of stress to deal with, everyone should just dance and enjoy life like they do sometimes

[watanidiot]

La propriété c'est le vol!

[opfdr6511]

The end was depressing but overall great!!

[craiggyrulez]

I love the editing :O

[InfiniteLyte]

This may be one of the best music videos I've ever seen. Love everything about it.

[nafaidni]

Yep, those are Russian soldiers.

It can also be implied, since that guy dancing is Boris Yeltsin, the first Russian president.

[TheSkullranger]

3:05 osama?!?!?!

[nafaidni]

I like how the video vaguely, especially at the end, seems to imply George Bush "orchestrated" these things.

See at the 3:00 part where he swings his baton before the rocket is fired?

[L3dZ3P]

Great song and brilliant effort with the video...well worth a watch:)

[windshadow333]

one of the coolest vids ever.  My favorite part is the troops in blue marching to the beat. Wonder who's troops those are...

[erico72]

@windshadow333 I believe those are russians

[opfdr6511]

@windshadow333 Russia's soldiers.

[styx102]

george bush is amazing!

[TheCathil360]

hey people check out B151 music videos here!!!!!!!!

[bweck6]

Kay that was hilarious and quite disturbing in the sense of what is our world coming too.

[k3n60dahalokid]

This was fan made right?

And it gives me the chills when the last segment shows Bin Laden shooting the AK-47. I think that's the only segment of him in the whole video, and that just makes it eerie when he's last. He's pretty much the main person causing all the trouble in the world and he was put last because of it. The most wanted man in the world put in last.

[asdfuogh]

@k3n60dahalokid Bin Laden isn't the main person causing all the trouble in the world. He's only a result of the phenomenon known as "blow back." It might be easiest and most comfortable to put all the blame on him, but it wouldn't be accurate or correct.

[Ericman2043]

LOL really funny!

[SacraManga]

I thank bush for making me lol

[MsFuzzygirl]

i love the video...it suites the song

[PatrickBateman47]

Thanks Mat Whitecross this video is amazing.

[AVAarsliberLockheart]

anmazingly powerful video, extreamly well done.

[ICaNaDaDrYI]

you gotta love Bush :D

[tehsuperepicpwnzor]

Fantastic video to a fantastic song.

[squealyparsuperstar]

why no pics of the most famous leader ever (Hitler)

[Hlorrh40]

Well I wonder what you think now that there is a true evil person in office. Even if you don't believe.... you will. True evil is now in charge... not of me... but of the nation... pray for us... we need it...

[MsCalmbeforethestorm]

"when the futures architechured by a carnival of idiots on show, you'd better lie low!" v true

[rookitchen]

i like to surf youtube videos by picking videos in the related video menu on the right of the screen. Coldplay videos are like a black hole from which escape is impossible. you cant find any related videos except more coldplay videos.

[helpfulpcguy]

2:12 is an epic pic

[NiceGuy1130]

awesome song

[PatriotoftheNation]

one of their best  videos

[circusclown35]

absolutely brilliant

[lupenct82]

da ammirare a tutti il magnifico sfondo dell etna vulcano ke domina la citta' di catania...

la lava nelle vene.. grandi cold play..

[JPWP88]

quality

[tubeshok]

"The Council on Foreign Relations is the American branch of a society which originated in England ... [and] ... believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule established." Dr. Carroll Quigley : Cheney was the director of Council on Foreign Relations and a US Traitor: Cheney boast about it with fellow traitors. /watch?v=lBjdWh44OPA

[kangol12323]

@tubeshok the Templar knights are still around...there are no boarders we just think there are...

[xoxoxJOxoxox]

I agree with anzilewulf.

At first i thought the video was very comical but about half way through i found myself finding a message and it made me really sad.

This way just so brillinatly directed.

[enzilewulf]

Idk why but at the end with the fire works I found a tear come to my eye and goose bumbs every where...Coldplay really speaks with this...they really do.

[karolina19761976]

i love George Bush like a monkey

[Ryan2588]

Me too! Very funny. I want to see Obama on here like a monkey because he REALLY looks like one!

[karolina19761976]

i´m agree, jajaja..

[cssingame]

awesome

[tropagoofie]

how did you do those effects

[389santiago]

hahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahha

[peacenikkle]

the Mad Conductor

[JAtria]

Mat Whitecross did a GREAT Job!!!

[pokemonnnerd]

Damnit, I can't stop listening to this...the video being great doesn't help either...

[darkangel4141]

@pokemonnnerd

[248pyromaniac]

Love the song, the video is great . It makes me want to watch it over and over.

[Zedetnik]

Best lyrics ever. Strong video.

The man at 2:40 is being tortured

[GrandInquisitorify]

That was.. quite beautiful. xD

[Girlygirlemc]

wow. very interesting message... I am mostly impressed with your outstanding editing. A lot of that matched up in a really powerful way. Great job.

[jezathelonelyangel10]

this is funny

is funny to see them dance if not the happiest of people of the world to the best of songs

[aimeighty]

There's just nothing like watching George, Fidel, Tony, Boris et. al getting jiggy with themselves to Coldplay! Juxtaposed with the scenes of military pomp and parade, violence and explosions, it's a brilliant video.

[bdisinthehouse]

dont forget Obama

[Steveewalkerr]

who is the guy that falls down? 1:27 lol

[TheJEShow]

Fidel Castro.

[GrayWolfen1488]

What do You mean who He is?

That's Fidel Fucking Castro! The dictator, well ex-dictator from Cuba.

[soundtrack1991]

Nahhh he still is. But not officialy ;)

[GrayWolfen1488]

Ahhh...so the old fart can't get enough, huh? XD Oh, btw...did You hear about Haiti?

[tnvvb]

????

[Yeppr]

I like this song, but the slow down soft voice and piano at the end is what I want to listen to for hours at bedtime. I can't find anything like it, can anyone help me find music like that? It's so beautiful

[JAtria]

I can't stand our Government anymore...

I do NOT trust the Republicans and the Democrats.

[huckjb13]

HAHAHA viva la coldplay!

[perezallonzo]

I'm sure this video is just for fun, not insulting somr politicians, but i know this is an insult to Bush. =D

BLAME BUSH.

[Ryan2588]

Let's grow up. Every politician sucks and do what they want to please only themselves.

[markboyTHeBig]

1:24 lool

[macarrazzz]

xd lol

[Serjongo]

They chose to rule the country, no one forced them to do the job and believe me they have a pretty good life.

[4NasTyA4]

love dis song

[huey27x]

i absolutely love coldplay, but i find this video to be a bit unfair. i understand that they are trying to make a statement and i for the most part i agree with their politics, but all presidents must live with the decisions they make and i'm sure it takes an enormous toll on them. but does that mean they can never have a light/silly/fun moment? they have to be able to compartmentalize or they'll go insane!

part of me actually even misses bush because he always made me laugh

VIVA LA COLDPLAY!

[nyssafyit]

I actually kinda agree with you. I don't agree with the actions of most presidents but they can't do everything right and they probably drive themselves crazy trying to.

[EZETHATSME]

Nice.

EZ

[angelivan88]

hahaha lool!! rolf!!! lmao!!!

funny, great, awesome video i have ever seen!!

[TheDoryDee]

Anyone from the UK see Never Mind The Buzzcocks?

I agree with David Tennant. Coldplay are awesome, get over it lower mortals!

[stiken21]

coldplay rules

[drkzagger]

jejeje bush es todo un mono jiji

[ALFREDIUX88]

Ja ja Ja  Monky Bush ! ja ja ja que bien tocan ! One " Oscar " who made this great video ! !

[karolina19761976]

oohh deception!! this is the world where we live, and any person is happy to know that..

excelent video!

[EliteElementalKid]

1:11 ftw

[masterclan12345]

they are a carnival full of idiots, aren't they? Hah. Rock on coldplay!

[stevale5]

incredible video

[Huuezoos]

the best thing i have ever seen i love coldplay

[Pearlshire19]

Coldplay = genius

The end with the fireworks turning into a mushroom cloud is so powerful

[69xsense]

Coldplay does a magnificent job incorporating their message into their seemingly shallow song that has turned out to be a deep meaningful one. Coldplay references the media, religion, war and how they are connected to substantiate their message geared towards encouraging people to wake up and recognize the misdeeds happening in the world. Well, interpretation may differ. Last but not least I love the song! They have done an absolutely wonderful job!

[Maerko]

@69xsense

Well analised!
