coldplay is an oxymoron, a take on foreplay ain't it?, or am i just looking into it too much , brilliant song either way, brilliant band name as well.
Coldplay, I declare my undying love for you!!!! Thank you for supporting human rights in Palestine!!! I mean, I thought it was impossible that you could get any better but I was wrong!!
please go back to this kind of music coldplay... i still love what you do right now... but i admire what you did back in those great "parachute times"...
This chord scheme reminds me of Subterranean Homesick Alien from Radiohead's OK Computer still obviously an amazing piece of work that is never praised as highly as other Coldplay pieces
I remember being in London and staring out of the window at this hostel I was staying at and playing this song. It is really nostalgic for me to hear it again.
Right when "High Speed" starts playing, I feel like I'm stepping into another dimension of space and time, as though I've been there before, hovering above our 3 dimensional world wondering "Is this really all there is?", while remembering my own thoughts throughout my life. As the song progresses I go faster and faster until everything fades and then our small, illusive perspective of reality slowly sets in.... again.
@ReallyIDontBelieveIt hmmm im a pretty fine collector and all i can say is that im extremely glad i read into this band. They are mind blowingly amazing songwriters.
@ReallyIDontBelieveIt it is influenced by radiohead. Look i could start a little flame war with you but it's pointless. If you are just a blind radiohead fan trying to start trouble it's not going to work. To me Radiohead is very similar to PinkFloyd/ Beatles/ and Kraftwork. Music is influenced by other music. If you can't see that in every band/composer then you are being nieve. Both bands are great and there is no point to what you are saying.
@15gbsoccer I guess Chris Martin is not to be listened to either, seeing as he always talks about how amazing Radiohead is. Word on the street is he'd give his left nut to write anything even close to as good as ok computer.
I'm a huge coldplay fan and I just heard this song for the first time. Definitely one of their better songs. Parachutes is their best album hands down.
There are many ways to interpret this song as with other coldplay songs. It is what makes artists good artists and what maked their songs so appealing to a lot of people. Being able to interpret a song in your own way is what makes it a good song. So say whatever you want, but its just your interpretation...
everyone is saying that coldplay stole lines from other bands. It's due to the rising popularity of this worlds number one band! Two years ago there were no rumours about steeling music. So some people like to sail along on Coldplays succes! Coldplay for ever.
Evilbible, must you!? Clearly this song brings people enjoyment, there is no need to ruin it by introducing the cultural death trap that is "the Beatles did something sort of similar to this at one point "... musicians are influenced by a vast amount of sources on both a conscious and subconscious level, similarities are often inevitable, unavoidable and mindlessly trivial...
@Cuoin not sure if u remember saying "musicians are influenced by a vast amount of sources on both a conscious and subconscious level, similarities are often inevitable, unavoidable and mindlessly trivial.." but you did, and for that YOU"RE THE BOMB!

No, seriously when I first heard this song I imagined two grotesque green cyborg giant monsters zapping each other's eyeballs in outerspace... and there it is.

This song combines elements of the mid 90s. It seems that the floaty effects are borrowed from Oasis's song, Champagne Supernova whilst the bassline is obviously stolen from Pearl Jam's song, Jeremy.
...Really people, this isn't THAT much like Subterranian Homesick Alien. Stop making comparisons betwen Coldplay and Radiohead just because they're both British and the singers like to sing high. They don't have THATTT much in common besides those things.
@callie672 yeah i know right? My dog named Trixie just died yesterday and i was listening to this to cheer me up, but come to think it just made me shed tears for some reason, it's like we are living life inside a bubble waiting to get out and go to the afterlife along with are long lost pets, relatives, and friends. Life is one big bubble.
I can't get enough of this song...it's one of those songs that I just have to listen to on repeat, it's that powerful...especially the line, "We've been living life inside a bubble..." it's become like a mantra for me
Why do you try to compare Coldplay songs?
Each one is like it's own universe.
Like saying the world I'm living in is better than the one you're in. Just doesn't work.
Don't compare them!
