Coldplay - Things I Don't Understand

[OdeToDeoderant]

No words to describe how beautiful this is.

[toni90227]

You guys cry a lot

[SunshineeSkys]

always crying while listening to anything Coldplay.

[gogolplex74]

OK now I know why this is a B-side

because it sounds exactly like Low

[Cheetah1251]

@gogolplex74

Eh, not exactly :/

[gogolplex74]

@Cheetah1251 yes, but it's very simillar

[Losckeychan]

every time i listen to coldplay, i either

1) am on the verge of crying

2) am busy crying

it's not that its sad or anything.. it's just so tear-jerkingly beautiful..

[TheStefanos14]

THIS  SONG CLEARS EVERYTHING!

[IndieElmoAndLove]

I hate it when i'm all excited to hear my amazing Coldplay music and as i put the volume up waiting for it to start, some annoying techno or rap crap whatever advertisement comes on -____-

[coolconfuzer]

the ending is something special..and that weird noise buried 2:01 gets me going.

[loss1803]

why this song didn't be in the principal tracklist of x&y, yeah that is a thing that I don't understand :/ ...

[alexespino101]

play, push the mushroom earphones in your ear..turn the music up.. perfect. This is beautiful :')

[pooponarail25]

i was listening to coldplay and i JIZZED IN MY PANTS!!

[Lil01161998]

WOW WOW WOW

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!

COLDPLAY FOREVER

[Cheetah1251]

They should make a Coldplay Rock Band game.

I mean come on. They did The Beatles, so why not Coldplay?

[Unkn0wnumb3rs]

First Coldplay CD I owned: Speed of Sound EP. It had this song in it, every time I listen to it, it brings back such great memories :D

[TheBottleofsand]

I cant put into words what this band means to me

[mischiefmanaged287]

Coldplay blows my mind.

[ariel012011]

que buena cancion!!!!!

[alejaprilon]

Why things don't always turn out as you plan ♪♫♥

[notcorporatedInc]

This song is so incredible. How did it never become a hit single?

[AlexanderMazarakis]

why does it sound like there are 5 of him? its amazing how do they do it?

[FeMace4]

@AlexanderMazarakis They simply record more versions of Chris singing and over-lap them one another.

[Cheetah1251]

@AlexanderMazarakis

The percussionist, Will Champion, usually does backing vocals for certain songs.

[TaMar113]

Hey all Coldplay fans, try listening to a few Coldplay songs in the same time. It's so awesome.. Long live COLDPLAY ♥♥♥♥

[love1234228]

I hope your computer fries if you ever dislike any coldplay songs. Bitch please you deserve to die for committing such a sin.

[niceguyharry46]

@love1234228 well said

[love1234228]

@niceguyharry46 Thankyou :)

[love1234228]

@niceguyharry46 Thankyou :)

[mira1927]

from which album is this song ?

[ghrskm]

@mira1927 It's not from an album, it's from the single "Speed of Sound"

[MrJSkates14]

i cant see the dislike bar? ;O Oh Well ahaha(:

[berlynois]

luv it <3

[StinkiwinkiPoo]

i do not wondering that michael stipe from REM likes Coldplay and Chris

[StinkiwinkiPoo]

@scottgambler55 nice comment;-)

[ScotlandsPie]

This is a youtube poem,

I hope you'll all share

it's for all the haters

and lovers out there

No matter what you watch

You'll find some form of entertainment

so shut the f up. both of you.

and

ENJOY THE MUSIC

[Crazycupmuffin]

@ScotlandsPie that wasnt gay at all.

[ScotlandsPie]

@Crazycupmuffin no pun intended

[ladypro615]

Ive never heard this before!!! I love it! Finding new Coldplay music is the best!

[elvinyusifi]

@ladypro615 it is like discovering a new planet in the solar system or an island in the middle of an ocean.

[ladypro615]

@elvinyusifi I dont think I could have found words to describe it as perfect as you did!

[Madeline4Eva]

@ladypro615 I like re-discovering their songs I haven't heard in a really long time. The name would look familiar and then you'd play it and hear the beat or the first few words and realize immediately that you like it :)

[42DarkBlue]

@ladypro615 Ditto!!! =D



[BassMonster1723]

@ladypro615 Hey, if you do your research you will find that this song as well as many others are available on a tour edition of the album "X&Y".

[TheJackie212]

@ladypro615 --SO true :) TY--I couldn't said it better myself Ladypro :)

[TwinklyTman102]

oh please dont start with the "I'm better than others, because I listen to more 'meaningful' music"... the great thing about music is that there is something for everyone...

[Emsland1986]

one of my favorites, absolutely amazing song, especially the lyrics.

[255rorro]

4 people don't understand what music is

[arfcatcat]

this song inspires me to write a poemXD and makes me think about songs today that don't have any meaning.

[jkoloklkoklokl]

tide goes in, tide goes out - YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN THAT!

[ananomi]

i love coldplay and always will

[heartflowergirl]

The dislike-button on this video, and the fact there are 4 dislikes on this video, are things I don't understand ;)

This song is epic, and great! Also great music!

[PrestigeWorldwide34]

how did this not make the cd!!!!????

[Maja8271]

why i can't dislike just one song from coldplay :(

[MrScruffman]

They must be playing a game and then they got cold and said WHAT A GREAT NAME FOR OUR BAND!!!!! COLDPLAY!!!!

[nevada522]

i know it's a shame but I've never heard of this! but this is cool!!!!i know it's a shame but I've never heard of it. I have a disc coldplay but it turns out that not all

[beccabexbecca]

i love coldplay !!! :p

[milena482]

Coldplay, what can be better?

[Verithiell]

4 dislikes. Now this is thing that I don't understand.

[wilsli000]

@Verithiell ignorant is you

[hejhhopp]

@wilsli000 i believe it was made for being a joke

[wilsli000]

@hejhhopp quite obviously a  joke, but a stupid one nonetheless

[StinkiwinkiPoo]

@Verithiell who cares? there are always some justin bieber fans;-)

[Hozzzam]

why does everyone go on about how they want videos like this to get so many more likes - just be happy you're the small percentage of people who can experience this song. And also when they do get more famous people complain about how the bands gone mainstream -.-

[CBTGeeksquad1]

i also love clocks singles

[panxoandleire]

LODVG me trajo hasta aqui... una bellisima cancion!

[liebnub]

3 people definitely couldn't decide wrong from right.

[BlueWildTiger]

Coldplay is such a band !!! Their music means so much ... I LOVE !!! We can learn so much on the world by listening them ... <3

[vetterton]

can they cold play any other guitar riff than the 8th? I´m tired...

[RSClassicAngel]

Some of their bsides are even better than songs on albums; Coldplay are not a band, they are gods...

[jerilyn333a]

who the hell disliked coldplay? coldplays music is so beautiful and they actually put meaning and effort into their song instead of just copying lyrics in rap and hip hop like "come back to my crip baby" and crap like that lol (dont get me wrong i love rap and hip hop as well know some of their music is trash lol)

[iluvjumblies]

Top comment on there is pretty stupid. I love Coldplay, one of my favourite bands, but if you want to call music shit, it would probably be a mistake to classify kanye west and jay-z as such because they're easily the most progressive mainstream artists in their genre. Black Eyed Peas, sure. Those two? No.

[ida260688]

i don't understand.. my love is song..

[garphik]

The starting riff is similar to some famous song!! I can't remember it, can anyone guess?

[PKillerMajorTV]

@garphik It's similar to Swallowed by the Sea, also by Coldplay. Although I wouldn't really call that song famous, but it is great.

[garphik]

@PKillerMajorTV hmm, I see, I thought I zeroed down on blink182's - miss you

[giulicoldplay]

i'm glad about everyone click on I LIKE button... ;-)

[kelpiedog16]

0 dislikes!! :D ♥

[hardt3]

This song made me think how I'm proud to be a Coldplay's fan!

[FrESHKid301]

Rap crap??? you sir are incompetent and deserve to go f**k yourself...with all due respect of course :)

[coolmasn]

This song is amazing. Coldplay is truly the best band of our generatio, and this is a thing that I DO understand. Chris Martin, hats of to you once again.

[cozmynameisonit]

And i don't understand what that never worked in first quadrant ( positive-positive) works in fourth quadrant ( negative-negative ) :|

[jeppeforsberg]

Does anybody know the speed of this song, in bpm (beats per minute)? Would be really helpful! :)

[TheRafael42]

Good song, better than some that came in to X&Y, It should make part of the album, X&Y, The Hardest Part and What If are not as good as this. Hardest Part is not good at all though.

[04mindless]

@TheRafael42 you didnt pick the 2 right songs. it IS better than some on X&Y, but Hardest Part is good and What if is amazing. It may be better than Twisted Logic or Speed of Sound

[TheRafael42]

@04mindless Ok, I understand and respect your opinion. But Twisted Logic is my favorite song on X&Y :)

[cozmynameisonit]

And the list goes but all i want you to know is ONE thing :) I LOVE YOU :)

[0MrFx0]

If I could only listen to one band for the rest of my life, I would want to listen to Coldplay.

[Bestduring69]

Easily one of the better coldplay songs

[sak85shaz]

There is a deep and divine meaning of this song. Read the lyrics. Whoever wrote this song has wonderful thinking and searching for true meaning of life. This could be a brilliant poetry. Of course one of the most brilliant song-writing i heard. Thats why i rate Coldplay as true genuine music of the world.

[yoyo15243546]

i love very mach this song!! coldplay rooks

[herzali]

its so sad that lady gaga is more famous than those talented guys ..

[Irishpuma94]

@herzali Accually in a sense I dont care, publicity doesnt make a band or singer any better than they are. Coldplay plays from the soul and touches those that still love that music from our past. Lady gaga just fits todays society...pointless and dead :/

[herzali]

@Irishpuma94 AGREE !

[WilllChampion]

If you listen to 3:56 there's a female voice in the background ,it's not easy to listen it

[LittleRandomOne]

@WilllChampion is she like singing opra?

I think i do hear her if so..

[WilllChampion]

@LittleRandomOne excuse me but what is Opra?

[aznprideyerro]

there's a meaning behind each coldplay song, and they're all amaziing.

[microsmurf2]

Great song I don't Know how coldplay do it.

I like coldplay because the lyrics mean something, they aren't just random crap.

[ozeanherz]

wow that kind of song have a secret code, not simple code...

[jossyjona]

System.out.println("es primo");

[h879xx]

These b sides piss all over most other peoples A sides

[1avd1]

I love it <3

[TheElGladiatore]

I hope they make a new album soon

[birdhums]

@TheElGladiatore

I've seen a few articles saying that they plan on releasing one this year. A couple of them saying around Christmas. I hope so, because it's been two years since the last.

[omgitzxolaurenn]

@TheElGladiatore October 24th is the release of Mylo Xyloto :3

[omgitzxolaurenn]

@TheElGladiatore October 24th is the release of Mylo Xyloto :3

[Reazzurro90]

@omgitzxolaurenn

UGH WHY IS IT THAT LONG???

[omgitzxolaurenn]

@Reazzurro90 Hahahaha right?? An entire 50 more days :\ lol and don't judge me for counting down!

[Reazzurro90]

@omgitzxolaurenn

*hides personal calender*

[ThePrenian]

@TheElGladiatore haha... they will and its called Mylo xyoto

[MegaManunited10]

@TheElGladiatore yeah it's called MYLO XYLOTO : P

[AndrewVloggy]

@TheElGladiatore Oh seeing this made me smile, MYLO XYLOTO!!!

[aistbal]

@ellenirenecrandall it's on Speed of Sound single

[thebasketballfreak22]

Coldplay = the best band ever created <3

[Katao192]

Coldplay is amazing. Absolutely amazing; meaningful, while puzzling lyrics, catchy and awesome tunes and great songs. : D

#1 fan.

[speedybill47]

great

[FrankoXero]

Beatiful ^^

[BluRox102]

I love Coldplay!, Who doesn't?:)

[silentslayer8989]

Coldplay's songs suck, but i still like them.

[franklystrange]

Uhh... what?

[breachmania]

haha yeah

[MegaBenji10]

@silentslayer8989 waw that makes alot of sense! XD

[reignofsparks42]

I love Coldplay and I will never understand why people don't like them! What's not to like? They are talented, humble, sweet, funny, caring...etc. <333

[franklystrange]

Not just that, you're right that they're talented, but their music also means so much behind the lyrics! I know why people don't like them. It's because their too tangled up in their Kanye West, Jay-Z, Black Eyed Peas, Drake and other Hip-Hop-Shit and Rap Crap.

[reignofsparks42]

Lol. Well Chris Martin likes rap. I just think people don't give them a chance and they automatically assume they are a certain way when they are totally different. If people just listened to them and their message they would love them. Artists from many different genres of music like them!

[franklystrange]

I'm just biased because I hate rap lol But I 100% agree with you. Coldplay rocks! =D

[reignofsparks42]

Hahaa! I hate it too but I love Chris so it mustn't be that bad if he likes it!

[speedybill47]

I think Martin Appreciates all types of music and is willing to lsiten to all of it. but i do definitly think he prefer alt. rock and classical the most. COLDPLAY FOREVER

[gapdef]

Maybe they just prefer that kind of music?

[LittleRandomOne]

@franklystrange I love all those you listed and but i also love coldplay..i guess their music just doesnt catch onto people..thats too bad though :/

[Chowbizful]

@franklystrange u crapy bitch ...

[joslouis160695]

@franklystrange you just devalorized your speech alot because you said shit about other types of music. what is it with y'all blaming others cultural taste. Dont get me wrong, i LOVE Coldplay but i love listening to dubstep to classical music, to rap/hip hop, to jazz and that's just the beginning. And am i shitting on other people's taste in music? i wouldn't think so. just respect the others choice and it will make the world even better !

[steamcloud15]

@franklystrange Actually, Coldplay is a relatively mainstream band. Millions of people all around the world listen to them.

Also, there are tons of great hip-hop artists with just as much meaning. Ever heard of A Tribe Called Quest, Run-DMC, or Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five?

[tobeedetermined]

@franklystrange I don't understand why we can't accept other genres, why diss it, it's self expression. You don't have to agree with it, but why diss it?

[Frostlikewindsong]

@franklystrange so True. I love Coldplay and their lyrics too. Hip-hop, rap, R&B and all that other stuff is total CRAP.

[ladypro615]

@Frostlikewindsong ignorant.

[amesquitaPT]

@franklystrange ironically jay-z is 1 of coldplay's best friends having already recorded with them as U know. he call's chris martin his brother because they are such good friends. kanye also recorded a single with chris and said coldplay r bigger and better than beatles. true story. dont bash them so quickly. they also make good music. besides, at least in this tour (2011) they are antecipating their entrance with jay-z's 99 problems! so... coldplay listens to his music andi think U should try

[MrDisturbinglyRandom]

@franklystrange actually jay-z is a coldplay fan

[TheRafael42]

@MrDisturbinglyRandom Kanye too

[ravsmpsn]

@MrDisturbinglyRandom And Chris and Jay-Z have featured each other on their respective tracks.

[Linqoon]

@franklystrange Coldplay did collaborations with Jay-z and Kanye West. :)

[albankodraliu]

@franklystrange There`s nothing bad about jay-z, kanye west or the others, just their music is SPECIAL.

[Sausage608]

@albankodraliu Yeah, Chris Martin is actually a fan of both of theirs.

[TheSnowmanEddie]

@franklystrange Jay-z is okay cause he did lost with them live XO but hate him otherwise

[MilanDante]

cuz of that - if they were pretentious, those people would like them. but screw them , they got Timbaland ;)

[BOUNTYJUNTER9]

"how to avoid defeat when truth and fiction meet" great phrase

[TheSunset0]

I agree. :D

[Mariina015]

Música contagiante!

[09whatever06]

love this song and coldplay should put all their bsides on a cd cuz they are amazing!!!

[rock100pre]

ESTA CANCION LA HUBIERAN INCLUIDO EN EL ALBUM viva la vida

hubiera sido el mejor single del 2008

[yousifgamer]

@rock100pre Sprekkens Se' Engelst?

[antoniolagamma]

i think this is one of the best songs coldplay have ever made...

[jarominsays]

agreed

[zarakitten99]

good song can totally relate to it xx

[bubatpcoldplay]

Only Coldplay and forever Coldplay!!!

Chris and others are greats!!!

[mceti]

this is much more better than speed of sound..

[mceti]

even the bsides of Coldplay are soo good that they could put them on an album....

that shows the true power of Coldplay!!!!!

[JAtria]

@mceti I agree, Gravity and proof are great also!

[coldplay77290]

coldplay is the best band ever

[DanPhantomFan]

no mamar que chidisima cancion! coldplay los amo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FROM MEXICO!
