It´s NOT a masterpiece, because the little violine frills in the begining sound like they were cut and pasted from The Velvet Underground's "Venus In Furs."
Friends you Coldplay fans be kind to me and open your Hearts to understand me. Coldplay Always Talks of God and Life that Only the Lord may give too you. Are they THAT good? yes they are good, and you think too yourself why? how do they speak from there hearts and mind and soul? :) The Holy Ghost is Shining Through them, that is what The Lord will do For every1 who will Just listen to him Everyday :) believe my words Cuz they give you understanding friends, dont doubt yourself. ColdplayisjusHelp
I love this song because it showcases how low Chris can sing!! He usually shows off how high he can sing but this low is so amazing! And all of the instrumental work is perfection as usual, thanks to Will, Jonny, and Guy :)
I just love coldplay, and i like to discover songs by them on youtube i hadn't heard before... They re the BEST and BIGGEST ever... if u like this check out 42 by coldplay
i leave for air force basic training as a member of the security forces in 10 days and the thought of being away from my family for months probably years on end in some of the most dangrous places in the world makes me think but this song really calms me down and makes me wanna cry at times idk coldpay is great when ur going through hard times
I was a HUGE fan of Coldplay some years ago. Then my musical taste broadened from rock.. alternative, soft and otherwise.
Now I don't care about much of their output. But this last album was, if I do say so myself, quite good. The two best tracks, I think, were 42 and this one.

this is gonna piss A LOT of people off but i LOVE coldplay i mean they are the best but i think Yes is the worst song they have EVER written. I mean i love Chinese Sleep Chant but i really don't like Yes.....
I think I give Chris a lot of leeway because that's what love can do, and that's what his music has done for me - it awakened me to a feeling of love and a sense of magical beauty.
I choose to look at them as one song, because that's how it's listed on Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends, but I personally like the second half ALOT. But it's a great song all around.
we r working on a music video for this song. its been difficult trying to tie in both songs into one video. were going to send our ideas into coldplay and see if they will work with it. we're excited to see what happens!
Life in Technicolor also has a definitely oriental sound to it, and Lovers of Japan too. Wonder what that's all about. Maybe Coldplay is just exploring new sounds.
i love this song.. and chinese sleep chant y the perfect ending for this.. the entire album is truly 'magnifique'... one of the best works of the band.. very intelligent that idea of double songs and hidden songs... congratulations to coldplay! :D [my apologize about my bad english.. i don't speak it so well.. i'm still learning]
radiohead is definately awesome, but in a totally different genre from coldplay I think. So I think they are kinda equal, it just depends on what you genre you prefer
ohh so that's what the second part of the song is called! I love how they have like, hidden songs. So instead of only having say 10 songs, they really have close to 14 or something =) Very clever.
Coldplay is to this decade what U2 was to the 80's/ 90's. It's emotional and deep, in a different league than most of what you hear these days. This is the album of the decade.
The Chinese Sleep Chant song is ironic, because it keeps commanding you to sleep and the complete awesomeness of the song prevents sleep from occuring. Oh well, COLDPLAY ROCKS! WOOO HOOOO!
Should be interesting to see what U2 comes up with in November....right now this has to be a strong contender for album of the year. But U2 has a new sound on the way.

its not their own creativity to make it one track...he is just copying elton john..and how he has songs that he combined and put into the same track...chris martin is anything but original...he wants to be something he is not..but this song is really good...!
I disagree.I think the man is very talented.The music from this band is great and Chris Martin has a great emotional voice.What more do you want from a musical band? Most bands out there today don't compare to Coldplay in their material.
musicians influence other musicians, that is how it works. I'm sure many influenced Elton John, that doesn't lessen his tracks, nor does it affect Coldplay.
i don't get why they have them as one track. this isn't lihe the second half of abbey road where the 2 songs evolve into the other or has fluid transitions. these are clear pauses in between and completely different. doesn't make sense to me...good songs though.
great culture, unique type of music. you can definetly hear the chinese and japanese influence in their music. and it sounds good doesnt it? there u go.
the second part - chinese sleep chant - is the best track on the whole album. should be a track in its own right. taking it back to the shoegaze days.
I think this album has the same great emotion that coldplay has become to exhibit throughout their career. It has a different feel to it and I like it. I thought X and Y lacked that emotion despite having many great songs.
where is the first 10 seconds of this song from i thought i heard it before,i love coldplay!!
