  • Not bad but still not better than the original ;)

  • This man if he is lucky goes to echo and the bunnyman in paradiso and let me say they never plays songs of coldplay or i bite my tongue off

  • his butt chiin is so cute!

  • Coldplay is awesome. Love them and they remind me of a group from the 80's so I'm not surprised that one of their favorite bands is from the 80's.

  • Chris speaking french... OMG! xD

    Don't let me die... kkk

  • Our concert is absolutely finished and we will play 100 (whoops!) 2 more songs. Their French is Amusant (amusing).

  • It's All Good

  • Okay, we don't want to give Chris Martin too big an ego--- so how about nominating Coldplay as the sexiest band alive (They deserve it----really!) DM xo everybody

  • @TheDebmun31 Sounds fair.

    I'm really enjoying this cover of the song. Well done, boys.

  • Echo and The Bunnymen , the best!

  • damn...loved it back then lovin it again...woooooo

  • I think that they did a decent cover. I liked it. & I hate how people that says that coldplay music is crap thinks they know everything about music, if you don't like coldplay is ok, go away. you know, is ok to not like things but don't be a dick about it.

  • Here are my 2 cents. Vocals dont have the range -I do like the trashy sound of the guitar. Well played. I like 'em both. If I had to choose I choose Echo and the Bunnymen. I still have the vinyl I play on special occasions sounds great on my AT-PL120.

  • Ugh, I love this song, I love Coldplay, and I love this!

  • I really liked it! I am a huge fan of the original, but this was good!

  • Do you know why Echo and the Bunnymen made this song? So Coldplay would not have to.

  • @IlliniJake what do you mean? u dont like coldplays' cover???

  • Love how there's more people who love Coldplay then those who criticize it :) hatred .... You'll never win Coldplays too damn good for you're disgusting time-wasting insults ! Lol Coldplay FTW <3

  • Not this biggest fan of the band but like this is a pretty decent cover.

  • I hate to come here and be a hater but Coldplay has no right to play this song. For one thing, his voice sucks for the high notes, nothing like the Bunnymen. Coldplay is the most pretentiously "artistical" piece of crap band of our time. Such a crock of garbage, and accent isn't enough to make a band good. Stop covering legendary songs please.

  • @Bmetalful I'm a massive Echo and the Bunnymen fan and a fan of post-punk in general. Of course Coldplay have a *right* to sing this song. People like you need to get out of the ridiculous mind-sets that covers are insults. No, they are not, they are *homages*. I actually think it's a nice cover. And obviously NOTHING will beat the original, which is often the case in most songs, and covers aren't sung for the purpose of bettering the original. No, they're fucking HOMAGES.

  • I think it's always a compliment to the band that created the song when someone does a decent cover of such a beloved and precious song! Great job, ColdPlay!

  • I wonder if someone stood up and left... hahahaha

  • Nice cover from Coldplay !!

  • @Scrotemeister Dick.

  • @MegaRekyyli Turdhat

  • @Scrotemeister

    I really wish I knew why you would bother to even come to this video if you hate this band so much. Seriously, don't you have anything better to do with your life than lurk on youtube and post pissy comments about the videos? I don't know about you, but that sounds like a sad life to me.

  • Que papelãoooooooooooo heim cold,, tem coisas que nao tem como copiar ,, Echol é exclusivo,, ninguem copia ele. Ficou ridiculooooooooo e tenho dito.

  • by one of ou favorite bands...

  • oui, il a parle en francais! pas mal non plus!

  • A-t-il parlé en français????

  • nous allons jouer un chanson :P hahaha brilliant !

  • AN excellent cover of one of my favorite songs by Echo and the Bunnymen! Thanks so much for putting this up!

  • BEST SONG EVER!

  • Haha I would have laughed so hard if everyone would have turned around and walked out @ 0.28

    Unfortunately, this is Coldplay, so people don't leave :)

  • Moi j'adore ça! Love it so much... their sound is wonderful! And love the original one too!!

  • Moi j'adore ça!

  • I prefere this version

  • Speaking French just makes you pretentious and smelly.

  • he...speaks...french?!?! Coldplay is the exact definition of perfect.

  • check out kulu change of heart on youtube

  • He just doesn't quite have the voice to lead this. Props for the nod to the Bunnymen.

  • Jeez....this is AWFUL

  • good cover version

  • It's alright and all, but trying too hard to sound like the original, in my opinion.

  • @aslongasitlasts Funny, seems like CP always wanted to b

  • Temaso de Emerson lake and palmer.

    Cold play dejen de robar

  • @outoftherecord Emerson, Lake & Palmer??????? Hay un error, esa canción es de Echo & the bunnymen

  • You're joking , right? This cover is ok, but not great. Echo in Boston in 2 weeks!

  • Only Colplday can fly on boxes.

  • bahahahahahahah I'm French so the beginning cracked me up.

    On va joué des chansons... not by Coldplay. XD

  • he's saying-

    our concert is now absolutely finished and now we will sing a song not by coldplay

  • can some very very nice person translate what he says in the begining? ;)

  • ce ce...............mon ami!

  • Wow Great cover! Loved the 80's and this cover would have fooled me for the original. I always like Cold Play, now I like them even more.

  • J'aime beaucoup son accent lorsqu'il parle français <3

  • I don't care too muc for 'coldsore' but this is a really good cover

  • This is one of the best songs ever.. ya know?

  • 1:55 cute! :D

  • ALWAYS GOOD ALWAYS FUN!!!

  • At least coldday has enough tast to play a classic.

  • shut up and listen the music :D

  • Hooo I love how he is talking in french, his accent is so adorable :)

  • Even Coldplay couldn't mess up "Lips like Sugar"-it's too brilliant of a song. 

  • OH MY GOODNESS COLDPLAY COVERING AN ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN SONG I LOVE COLDPLAY AND ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN AND RADIOHEAD AND THE WHO AND U2 AND THOSE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT BUT I STILL LOVE THEM AND THIS IS SO AMAZING AND WONDERFUL AND SER GUT!! :D

  • best song ever.

  • As much as I love the album version of this song, how can he honestly suggest this is the best Bunnymen song ever. Blue Ocean and Over You from the same album are stand out songs. But to suggest for a moment that LLS is better than No Dark Things, Porcupine, Gods Will BE gods, A Promise, Over The Wall, All My Colours.........I think this sums him up as a chancer who thought he would latch himself onto a critically "cool" band and randomly cover one of their "poppier" moments. Typical really.

  • @CONSIDERABLYMORE1 dude what do you expect.... it's a business FIRST!!! as long as you know what's the truth... that's all that really counts.

  • What a fucking bullshit band. Only the bird Paltrow likes them?

  • @DAVEYBOND007 LOL. How true.

  • @DAVEYBOND007 Why did you click on this page then, you numbnuts?

  • @dbkparm So I could get comments from assholes like you!

  • @DAVEYBOND007 Perhaps you could suck a big old fart out of my asshole? Sound good, numbnuts?

  • @dbkparm Thanks for the offer mate? But I'm to busy fucking your Mother !

  • @DAVEYBOND007 WOW!!! Holy shit. Boy, how can I possibly compete with a rapier-like wit like yours? Jesus, Mary and Joseph, how did you ever come up with a witty, original line like THAT??? Man-o-man. You really are a funny girl!!!!

  • FRENCH?! J'ADORE!!! QUI!!!

  • hey how can all u looooosers not like Cold Play??? are u whacked?/ They remind me of my fav band U2...by the way I love Lips like Sugaaaaaaaaaar...great live cover

  • 45 people missed the like button. XP

  • Not a fan of coldplay but will at least admit that this cover isn't all that bad considering. It could have been much worse.

  • J'adore son accent au début (0:13-0:20) quand il parle Français. Terrible !! Vive Coldplay <3

  • lips like chicken ! heheh jokn yu

  • very nice!!!! i dont even like coldplay

  • I guess I don't understand the blatant hatred folks have for Coldplay. They're a really good band. The original of this song is one of my all-time favs, but this is great cover. It does seem like that like U2, Coldplay are more popular in the States here than they are in their own country of origin.

  • Should've done "The Killing Moon".

  • nice cover

  • Uhh... what language is Chris trying to speak at the beginning?

  • @cnuulhu French!

  • @cnuulhu uhh french ? one of two foreign languages he speaks .. the other being spanish ..

  • wooooot~ i has this song i meh ipod!~ ;D

  • I like "lips like sugar" played by Coldplay more than Echo and the Bunnymen!!!

  • well they even cover the Smith´s and that´s greattttttt 

  • they sound like u2 a lot...

  • @osheal But... Coldplay = Better!

  • @jochemodijk Are you kidding me???

  • @jochemodijk But... Echo and The Bunnymen = The Best!

  • @osheal That's an insult u2 will never be as good as coldplay or even have their unique sound

  • @Coree94 The ignorance in this comment.. My god.

  • @SuperiFox Not ignorant mate, called an opinion, don't like it, get fucked.

  • nice cover

  • This cover is good

    But coldplay still sucks

  • Coldplay IS a cover band.

  • Don't like this band but they did a good cover.

  • @AORCrazy you suck, dude!!!

  • @alberticusmaximus Yeah well you suck cocks dude. Go and hold your hands with other new music fans.

  • @Vambo1958 Your a wanker!!!

  • @Vambo1958 no you!

  • There playin' this on an diffferent (low) key..

  • awesome that they paid tribute to the original, an all time classic. could't have been done more appropriately.

  • @Supersweetguy Both of them are good :D

  • @HintForGood

    great great bands both. \Repsect them both :) !!

  • Awesome

  • Which is better the cover song by Cold Play or the original band Echo and the bunnymen?

  • Which is better the cover song by Cold Play or the original band Echo and the bunnymen.

  • wow coldplay... lo mejor que he escuchado ...son los mejores y hacen que me sienta siempre bien cuales sean los estados de animop en los q me encuentre

  • very good french

  • Long Live Echo.

  • Ew coldplay. Bunnymen forever!

  • This is one of the best songs ever, And so is Milkyway.

    Cheers,thanks for the post.

  • ok i dont care for coldplay, but they did this is cool

  • MMmm..I wanna kiss your sugary lips/.....

  • omg i had no idea Coldplay played a cover for this song...wow they really do surprise me still :) i like it, doesn't top the original but its a nice change to it lol

  • BLASPHEMY

  • Go to the original version.

  • Oh yes, one of the top songs of them. I Love It! <3

  • I hated coldplay. Then I watched this.

    epic fuckin win.

  • how can you not like this song? It's completely flawless

  • @PimpBrovasTV It's easy to play a flawless song, its all skill

    to play a beautiful song it takes soul

    they got a shitload of both

  • I like how they didn't change it up too much. Respectful.

  • Il parle super bien français!! :D

  • Not a bad take but you cant beat the real bunnymen!

  • I had honestly never heard this song until I watched this video about two months ago. So cool!

  • This cover is quite good, taking the fact that Chris Martin's vocals are strongly based on Ian McCulloch's into account.

    The performed this in Mexico in 2003. It was great!

    I really miss that Coldplay's era.

  • Instrumentally, not bad. Chris Martin just can't replicate Ian McCulloch's brooding intensity, though it's okay for a one-off of this beautiful, beautiful song.

  • not a huge coldplay fan

    but this is a good cover!!!!!

  • Nice tribute

  • Nice Job. Coldplay has good taste.

  • so awesome. i looove this song.

  • PLAY YOUR OWN SHIT TO THE SADDOS, DONT try to play good stuff its JUST not Coldplay! god bless Ian McCulloch, hes probably stirring his cocoa very nervously at hearing this track, I can only imagine Ian`s face, he s probably scared to take a piss in his own home, George Michael might be hiding in his bathroom! gawd bless ya man

  • Anyone is free to leave aww sweet! x

  • Awesome cover, Coldplay. :)

  • Excellent cover! Coldplay can play anything and make it sound amazing!

  • Vive Ian Mc Culloch and the Echo and the Bunnymen!!!!

  • Un chanson ... not by Coldplay.

    hahah, aww chris is so sweet!

  • how sweet "The concert is officially over so everyone is free to go whenevr they want" like someone actually wanted to live! :) When are you coming to my country??? Please!!!!!!!

  • good cover

  • like someone actually wanted to leave!

  • @gatuno66 totally agree. i definitely couldn't!!!!!

  • Tss... Il parle français !!! Hihi :)

  • What language was he speaking?

  • he was saying our concert is totally finished now we are going to play a song not by coldplay, in french

  • @AnthonyMiller5000 French :)

  • omg, are you dumb?

  • 3:24 ---> Guy's hair...lol !!

  • At 1:02 I was like "Holy Crap! Jim Morrison?"

    Great find by the way, thanks for posting!

  • True!! :O!

  • Not the vioce.. JM is much much better.

  • it's got to be the best cover eva! :) viva coldplay!

  • Ian McColluch of Echo and the Bunnymen did it better.

    But I look at this as a Coldplay tribute to Ian and the Bunnymen. He gave them full credit and called them one of the greatest bands ever, which is certainly true.

  • yes thanks you very muchas gracias !!! i love this song its my favorite of cold play

  • Fantastic redition

  • sorry im searching " faster car" of cold play but its maybe an other name , thanks if someone can help me !!

  • Sounds good, but the original version by Echo & the Bunnymen is still better.

  • great frrench chris

  • A band like this one should not make covers.

    Peace.

  • @rockaires

    An intellect like this one should not make comments.

    Peace.

  • I like this version, honestly.

  • Hey the Coldplay has good taste, although I haven't listened to them yet. EATB is one of my favorite bands, too.

  • always thought his voice sounded like Macs on Swallowed in the sea. and the resemblence is here too.

  • Comment removed

  • wooooo i love echo and the bunny men

  • great song... really!!!

  • OK, but the original is sooooo much better.

  • Whoha

    Coldplay's version is really simmilar to the roriginal one. I prefer this one rather than the original, still both are awesome

  • i wish coldplay did a studio version of this song
