  • This song really moves me as it probably does you.

  • Shift might happen, but as others would agree, older Coldplay music is nicer and more melodic compared to their recent released music. Not saying that their new stuff is garbage, it's still music nevertheless. I'd just prefer their older music, those songs are timeless. :3

  • God, this is just like Coldplay to go and make something so relevant to our society today and be so totally modest about it. Timeless song, I really can't express in words how much I love it.

  • @KKOPPI You're totally right!(:

  • 'Animals' is Coldplay.

    'Princess of China' is shit.

  • I can get this song from nowhere!!!!!

    What are you doing, iTunes!!??

  • Great song animals !!!

  • I think this song is really personal for the band. You can hear it in Chris's voice

  • I can never rely on anyone these days....Pure awesome Coldplay is the only thing left for me.

  • ok, if you all are real coldplay fans, you would like both the "old" coldplay and the "new" coldplay. just because they added some strings to viva and 3 pop*-ish* songs to MX doesn't mean that they "changed" in anyway whatsoever-- listen to the lyrics, think about what all their other songs are about, and "they've never changed, have they?"

  • amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @zenscape87 message = meaning

  • Holy sh*t this should have been on rush of blood. i would have swapped it with a whisper

  • animals bitch!

  • i lost track of time and got really sad when the song ended

    then hit replay :)

  • I was 6th grade when I discovered them. I fell outrageously in love with them. I am now in 11th grade becoming a senior. My luv hasn't changed since then. :) long live coldplay!!!!

  • really wish I'd have discovered them earlier, but i would've been REALLY young

  • @12saramore12 i wish i could rediscover all their songs again : )

  • wow this is awesome. love coldplay. :)

  • This song isn't available from the iTunes download of Clocks EP, you have to hunt for the CD of Clocks EP, perhaps amazon. Or, if you want a more convenient, cheaper, but extreme-lesser quality and durability, get a program that rips the sound off YouTube videos. (if that's your route, support the artist: buy a shirt, or a poster, or even the CD!)

  • Damn. This Song Is Amazing.

  • Ok, where can I download this song so I can put it on my ipod?! I've been listening to Coldplay for 10 years and I've never listened to this song before!

  • still don't know why they didnt launch another album between the albums a rush of blood to the head and X and Y, the so called b-sides are all A-sides for me as good or better than many of the songs on albums. animals is one of them, crest of waves is another, proof, how you see the world, and a few more, would have completed the album could have been called cold world

  • @Joeltaa347 superstition, your love means everything, run away, gravity... But yeah, i ask the same question. Personally i think they take to long to release albums nowada. I mean, there is preserveing artistic integrity and creativity, but with increments of disappointment with each consecutive album since xny, it begins to lose value. I dont think this band needs to try hard to make a good album. This music seems effortless and organic, where as there new stuff comes off contrived. No emotion.

  • @juniwilliams i agree , this later stuff seems like a dead end or something, i think its transitional, we should expect more surprises from this group i think.

  • best b-side?

  • love coldplay kick ass band even though they are not very original that doesnt matter though if it works. :)

  • @Crazycupmuffin If coldplay is not original I don't know who is original then. I can hear one of their songs for the first time and totally guess it's them without even starting singing, That's because coldplay is so unique. I agree that they totally crash their competition

  • @ENGflameLIV i say they are not original cos they copy all their songs. And the cool thing is Chris Martin is pretty open on this and says they are probably the best unoriginal band about.

  • @Crazycupmuffin

    link to this please?

  • type in utube Mystic ritmo de la noche they stole this Another one is joe satriani vs coldplay Look the thing is I love Coldplay Im just saying they arent original and so what? The Beatles have said in the past they took bits and pieces from artists before them Bob Dylan as well But Coldplay just take a lot more stuff from people which works for them i prefer coldplays versions anyway. They have been sued in the past from the likes of joe satriani Cat Stephens Creeky boards and sammie lee smith

  • @Crazycupmuffin

    i mean i wanted a link to where they said that.

    also wih joe satriani im pretty sure they said that they had never heard his song before as they were in england when it came out

    and i wish people in the music industy could just get along intsead of bickering over some notes and beats.

    we all put our own twist on it so why does it matter? its a different perspective i think it sho that they think the song was good and should be a compliment as long as its not exact same

  • @bubblemonster3 i dont know where i seen it but it was a vid were they were chattin with chris and the drummer. And thats funny if they said that cos thetunes are exactly the same. I agree with you though i adore coldplay i got all their albums and will follow them always but my point is u dont have to be original to be great and coldplay prove that. Shit just look at every rapper out there they take the music from every old song their is and rap over it. :)

  • Coldplay was the best band on earth, although, unfortunately, they've been disappointing of late....why couldn't they just stick to making amazing music like this?

  • @fmicakaj Because then everyone would moan how it's the same old stuff from Coldplay, they can't please everyone, some people like the new stuff, some don't.

  • awesome band! The best of all time.

  • This song's guitar riff is so simple and yet it's so awesome at the same time. I love it.

  • there seriously isn't one coldplay song i dont like. they were a gift from god<3

  • if i ever become super rich, im going to go to a coldplay concert everynight that they tour, no matter what country!

  • Excuse me but what is not to love?!?

  • Comment removed

  • this is tough for me I love coldplay but I loath gwyneth.

  • Coldplay has so many amazing songs that are just great to listen to. This morning, I had the chorus from one of their songs in my head. I couldn't remember the name of it, sadly. It took me several hours to find it (it was What if). I would have been quicker if i didn't stop to listen to every song first.

  • I wish they would tour and have an hr dedicated to all their bsides and older stuff!! actually I wish I could just see them in concert everyday :))

  • @ILuvMyApp youre telling me. I wish I would have known about them in 2000, I would have gone to every show.

  • Cant believe I havent heard this one before. Top tune

  • @Bonny4544

    exactly what i said. just listening to this for the first time now. i just decided i'd playlist coldplay from now on

  • Eight people clearly crumble and fall like animals...

  • "You know how I know you're gay? You like Coldplay."

    AHHHHHHH!!!!! I fucking, fucking, FUCKING HATE that line from the 40-Year-Old-Virgin. Ruined an otherwise pretty good film. Seriously, fuck ANYONE who thinks Coldplay is in any way, shape, or form, "gay". And besides, since when is being gay considered bad again?

  • i feel almost envious of how these guys just love one another like brothers not lovers they would be gay wouldn't they, so its nice they are a family

  • people who disliked probably have no regrets being an animal.

  • i really cannot explain what i'm feeling when i'm listening to this song..it's so weird..

  • You know how some people have a first love that they can never let go of? That's Coldplay for me. The love is still going strong and there are no signs of dissipation.

  • Coldplay, - past, present, AND future. ftw.

  • I'm really getting tired of this. It seems like all you people keep spouting the same spiel about how "old Coldplay's better" and "they should go back". Get over it. They're not going back. Bands change their sound and style...as they say in business, SHIFT HAPPENS. Just deal with it. I am of the strong opinion that Viva-era Coldplay is just as good as old Coldplay. Neither is better or worse. Instead of reminiscing about the good old days, just enjoy the present.

  • @atennies94 i'm just adding onto your comment. What makes a band more interesting? a linear career or a dynamic career? People change and a little change won't hurt, hopefully not. In life, people either enjoy or are terrified of surprises. Expecting something new but being consistent will probably make life boring. every decade has its own personality. people saying the music industry is rotting but you sound no different than the 40's generation when rock n roll first came out in the 50's.

  • @atennies94 Yeah, and just for the record, I LOVE this song.

  • @atennies94 Totally agreed. Actually, I personally don't even feel the difference. Every one of their songs are epic.

  • @atennies94 Even though I understand what you mean here, I would like to say something. Coldplay's style of playing changed a bit, and not everyone's music taste changed along. There will always be comparisons between songs and it will be pointless, since everyone's taste is different, which means there is no actual good or bad. Just the tastes of people that differ.

  • @enniomeeusen2 to me really they sold out as simple as that, Chris is now writing songs for pop "artists" such as beyonce and rihanna and there more upbeat and all what happened to the style of "spies" and "such a rush" ohh how the spies did indeed come out of the water.

  • @TheGamekid93 Coldplay went the way they wanted to go, saying shit like they sold out is bullshit.. if you are a true coldplay fan you notice how there is still elements of his old stuff in his new stuff. If he changes, his songs change aswell and there's nothing we can do about that.

  • @RokushoM I know there is nothing I can do about it I am simply establishing the change in style but god only knows that is getting hard to see the sun getting through well I guess its back to demon days

    "Picture on the dreamer I'll take you deeper Down to the sleepy glow Time is a low.." 2D of Gorillaz

  • @RokushoM "para para paradise!"- now tell that aint a load of crap

  • @atennies94 Agreed. And not just that, we'll always have the old Coldplay. They're immortalized in the many digital music stores and CD/Vinyls. Coldplay is always expanding themselves. I love everything they've done.

  • @fireball3335 Exactly, if you want the old Coldplay, go listen to it.

  • @atennies94 bollocks, we like the old coldplay, deal with it. Theres evolution for the better and for the worse. Radiohead and Muse are doing quite a good job evolving in the right direction, just to name a few bands. Now all you hear on coldplay tracks is a haze of synthesizers, courtesy of eno. If that's what you like, you're whats wrong with music nowadays

  • please don't dislike the song, it very rude to the rest of us

  • Best coldplay b-side along with I bloom blaum this should have replaced A Whisper

  • how can this be a b-side...3:20 - 4:40 awesome...

  • This song > EVERYTHING on Viva la Vida.

  • @Zeronautic it really is!!

  • @Zeronautic This song > EVERYTHING. Period.

  • @Zeronautic Gonna have to disagree. Viva is a brilliant album.

  • Why is it that Coldplays least known songs are always REALLY good! it annoys me that this song is so unknown!

  • Coldplay is ultimatly the greatest band of all time! <3 u Chris Martin!!!

  • their music used to be so inspiring, they should go back and keep doing it like this

  • Really good song!! :D

  • thanks for upload...didn't knew it until now.klicked on it because I was curious...

  • sometimes it feels like they have listened to my story, have been there with me everystep of my my life, experienced everything i have. With all that said, they are the greatest listeners and the wisest healers.

  • wtf how do those british gods make music so good

  • i keep thinking i've been dazzled as much as i can be dazzled by Coldplay, and then i replay one of their songs (since i've heard ALL of their songs), and i just fall head over heels in love with them again. Why, oh why, must i suffer this great love? Why must i like in this perfect world of Coldplay magic? After Coldplay, nothing can amaze me anymore; they have exhausted my amazement. ahhhh.

  • They should have put this in the album A Rush Of Blood To The Head

  • 3:23-5:35...Love these four...

  • this displays class...

  • coldplay.

    words can't justify how amazing you really are.

    so it'd be pretty impossible for me to try unless it lead to me blabbering on about nothing.

    but wow, i love you. your songs widen my eyes and sometimes it feels as if i'm the only one in the world when i'm listening to them. x

  • this is the order of the adjective words:

    nice -> really good -> wow -> amazing -> incredible -> coldplay ♥

  • 20th century had the beatles, 21st century, we have coldplay!

  • Its am amazing day when you hear a new Coldplay song.

  • I wish coldplay didn't have that negative stereotype they do (you know how i know your gay? cause you listen to coldplay) this band gets it man, they get IT, they're one of the greatest bands i've ever listened to, they're like ear candy haha

  • Glad this song got the 100,000 views it deserves. One of Coldplay's best.

  • just when you thought you've heard the best of them... you stumble upon another underground song... IM FREE AGAIN . . .

  • That sound at the end sent a rush of freedom through me

  • A combination of excellent instrumental choices and lyrics.

    Suggestion; Listen "Proof"

  • i love this band lovw from america

  • Whit love from romania...I love coldplay

  • Wow what another masterpeice

  • @SCaGJMboy45 you're right above all murder 

  • Brilliant!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Can anyone interperet this song's meaning to me??

  • La amo la amo <3<3<3<3

  • Never heard this one before! I love discovering old coldplay B-sides! Anyone got any other fab ones?

  • @MsCalmbeforethestorm I Ran Away, One I Love, The Goldrush, and Crests of the Waves are good ones, and Gravity is my favorite.

  • @CaptainPriceLives

    cheers! The goldrush is my personal Favourite because of the beat at the begging!

  • Comment removed

  • @MsCalmbeforethestorm my favorite, from b sides anyway, is Careful Where You Stand. Love 'em all!! but Careful kind'a puts me on a teance, loooooooove it

  • @MsCalmbeforethestorm on a *trance*...typo :P

  • @MsCalmbeforethestorm listen to world turned upside down. such a good b-side.

  • someone from my school played this acoustic at a battle of the bands thing... honestly I though his cover was one hundred times better than this

  • the prime of Coldplay

  • @thisisourpostrock i agree, their last two albums where nothing compared to the first two, especially a rush of blood to the head. Their next one will be a step up though, i have a feeling they are about to drop a nice record

  • the best song ever of coldplay is parachutes. listen to it. it is amazing! i <3 u coldplay!

  • Brilliant song.

    And I LOVE this picture, they all look pretty smiling like that. <3!

  • I think Will farted, and they're all laughing at him. Look at his face compared to everyone elses. quarter laugh, three quarters guilt. And the other 3/4s of coldplay are 100% laughing.

  • lmfao SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!

  • Animal he is, whoooeee!

  • Viva is a different sound, they said that themselves, if the people who want there old sound had got there way coldplay wouldnt be around much longer, they needed to change there sound for them to progress as musicians. If you listen to carefully to vlv youll hear the old coldplay in there hidden in guitars, bass lines, drums, piano... ; )

  • nice,the old songs are great,i mean the new songs arent bad,but its completly different to this..

  • Anyone else hear what sounds like a panther or big cat at 5:09? Could be a guitar trick. 40 odd seconds off the song are funky.

  • @B2091 i think he's just sliding his hand across the strings :P

  • o m g it's amazing

    Old Coldplay was better

  • what do you mean by old Coldplay?

  • I love Coldplay but I'm talkin' about old songs :)

    c'mon u know what I mean ;p

  • i know what you mean

  • before viva la Vida, any real Coldplay fan knows that there most recent work isn't there best work, it may e there mos popular, but not there best.

  • oh ok thanx for the info

  • Snappier, honestly, I have heard a lot of Coldplay. I think that Viva La Vida (the era, not necessarily the song) is wonderful. The album was not just some songs put together, it was the arrangement of the songs that made it pure art.

    But then again, I'm just now hearing THIS song for the first time, and I love it. It's not my favorite, but it's great. All their songs have something different to them, and I can't help but love it all.

  • I never said the new stuff wasn't good. Its just not as good as the old stuff.

  • I see. I liked Viva La Vida. Not a lot more, but the arrangement of it was the best of all their albums so far. I dunno, Viva La Vida's time just seemed like one with a lot of depth to it, and not just B-side stuff like the rest.

  • @snappierwogg

    i don't know why you got a thumb down for that comment cos it's absolutely true. viva la vida is not bad radically said it is there worst album. X&Y is there best imo.

  • @Joasia123456789 but new coldplay is good too.... i like X and Y, ............... Square One the first song from that album changed my life

  • change your life? interesting :) in fact they haven't got bad songs ;D

  • Hmm... Fix You and A Message were what I needed. They changed my life. And Death and All His Friends. And The Hardest Part. Oh my goodness, they're just all so amazing. Viva Coldplay!

  • X&Y the song itself changed the way I thought. When ever I think of that song, I can think clearly in a loud room. ;)

  • @NewYorkCityO9 yeah i feel you there =) i seem to have a clearer state of mind when listening to the whole X&Y album

  • @jewelfewelYeah, Like i got a Q-tip for my brain.

  • This song is weird to me its one of those hate to love songs for some reason (then i forgot about it and now i've found it again and BANG its like a new song again MISS THE OLD COLDPLAY :(

  • @owo27 ohh my god me too!!!

  • @SuperNardDog couldn't agree more(: Coldplays just that band that makes my stomach churn cos i have so much love for the band idk what to do!

  • Phenomenal song. Coldplay's B-sides, like TSBA92 said, put Coldplay in an awesome category of their own.

  • I always thought that Coldplay was the greatest band, atleast in my opinion, and then once I heard some of their b-sides such as this, well, that basically put them in a catogory of their own as far as i'm concerned. Great song!

  • @TSBA92 Same here, really can't believe I've never heard these songs. Simply amazing.

  • @btheking4 They are great, and its been fun just digging deeper and discovering more of these treasures. Coldplay really is a treat to listen to
