Coldplay - Viva La Vida Lyrics

[CrazyButterflyXoX]

i love coldplay. i sometimes wish i lived in the UK, since many of the singers I love based there (jessie j, coldplay, one direction, the script, adele, etc.)

[Darthoblivion24]

*Sigh* im going to get on sometime and find even THIS video is blocked in the US by EMI, ugh, i love this song but EMI makes it hard to listen to it on youtube

[ilovemj3796]

Fuck this stupid advertisement!!! Just show me the fucking song!

[OldBreedWarrior]

when the lyrics say "i know saint peter will call my name" its actually "i know saint peter won't call me name."

[WaqasAltafShah]

i am not sure what he is singing about.

1) its either about the old Jewish Kings in Jerusalem before the roman invasion(I dont think the song is about this)

2) the most likely story he is trying to portray is about some criminal who had been caught by police and his criminal empire collapsed

[pendejodido]

That was when I ruled the world.

[ThatChicagoshit1]

There is Always an idiot going to great lengths to make others feel as bad as they do, if you don't like the song then don't come to it it's as simple as that. Retards

[Kesha479]

This is definitely a great group. This song got me from the get go while others grew on me....The best group since Fleetwood Mac if you ask me.

[Safooy1000]

I love this song, and the tune.

[SoapyMinecraft]

2 years ago during my cold nights in bed I would listen to the radio...one radio station played this at 10:00 every night...That was the only thing that kept me from killing myself...this song...THANK YOU COLDPLAY. (Im NOT kidding.)

[ntomataki778]

@SoapyMinecraft I had the same problem and this song kept me alive... It was in 2010 when I was in high school and had no friends no family.Nobody was talking to me at school and I had no one to talk at home. I was alone but one day said: Freedom or Death.I was afraid to die so I left everyone behind.I left school in the middle of P.E and broke free.That was the song I was listening while turning back home. That was the sound of freedom. Maybe you don't mind but I told you anyway!

[ThePinkhink]

@SoapyMinecraft Me too! The one song that did it for me was coldplay the scientist it makes me cry every time i hear it tears of joy.

[ntomataki778]

@SoapyMinecraft Now I'm done with school, and at University I met new people who made me believe in myself. My family is still silent though, but nobody has everything. Thanks for asking. How are You?

[SoapyMinecraft]

@ntomataki778 Better than ever. I got great friends who like me for who I am. I love my life now so yeah. I can only say this though...when life starts a hatin on ya just listen to this song cause my god does it help.

[MeetMeInOuterspacex3]

[HRHPrincessBrenda]

Oh poor Jesus, how hard must've been for him to do what he did.

[TheUnheardSoul23]

Reading the comments is like hearing people talking in a movie theater. Shut the fuck up! Like how we are watching movies, we are listening to music. Everyone has their own OPINION! Don't like don't watch. I hate all of the fight comments. I listen to every type of music...except polka(i'm not dissing the polka fans).

[stargazer5596]

@TheUnheardSoul23 dont read the comments then?

[ravenfeather100]

@littlepiggy21 well shes the author, she doesnt count. i bet they payed her to say that. i'll have to see for myself.... and btw, doesnt this song remind you of tigerstar?

[littlepiggy21]

@ravenfeather100 DEF! tigerstar had power, then he lost it. whish is pretty much what this song is about, having power then losing in, lessening.

[ravenfeather100]

@littlepiggy21 kinda makes you feel a little bad for him... almost.

[tiger104432]

@ravenfeather100 AAAAAlmost

[tiger104432]

@littlepiggy21 sucks for tigerstar

[tiger104432]

@ravenfeather100 i played it and it sucks graystripes balls

[Gobmy]

@TheMancow226 Youtube gets paid by the ads so getting rid of those would eventually lead to the end of youtube.

They added the like and dislike button because people usually either want to rate 1 star or 5 stars.

The yellow subscribe button is still on people's channels, I never really gave a shit about it anyway.

Your copypasta is invalid.

[CountrySongz]

@Gobmy but i wanna rate 100 stars. -.-

[Stickman470]

@Gobmy CORRECT FINE SIR!

[TH3M3RC]

@Gobmy Youtube is owned by Google......they don't need the money from adds.........

[Gobmy]

@TH3M3RC true, I may have over exaggerated when I said it'd lead to the end of youtube, but the ads help.

[PoetButAcriminal]

@TH3M3RC Don't be trying to ruin the ownage. :P

[ItzAnAlias]

@Gobmy Youtube may get paid for running ads, but i guarantee no that they would still run without adds, they seemed to be doing a good job before hand....

It's more for own personal added gain, nothing to do with the ability to keep running or anything like that.

[imperfectxgirlx1]

@Gobmy Actually (not that I don't disagree with everything else) the ads are added by the user. Some users are youtube partners and they get money for putting the ads on their videos (something like Phillip Defranco or Shay Carl - hopefully you've heard of them) Youtube also pays them to put content on but the ads are like extra money for every view they get. Just so ya know :)

[Gobmy]

@imperfectxgirlx1 Yeah I've learned a lot since I've posted that comment, but thanks :P

[imperfectxgirlx1]

@Gobmy Haha yea sorry I didn't see how long ago that was posted!!

[bubbasonboy]

@TheMancow226 You wont get anywhere. They put adds in youtube videos now to keep Youtube free for everybody. So unless you want to pay to watch youtube videos, I wouldn't try this.

[TheMancow226]

@bubbasonboy ???? i did't care for wat it said.. i found it and it said copy n' past so i did... and also i got likes so im quite happy:D

[ScaryMonsterClub]

@bubbasonboy No. Don't defend the comercials. Doesn't anyone understand how they're making money?!?! The commercials are fucking annoying. Youtube thrives on the hundreds of millions of users it has. But if it were to pay, that number would go WAYY down. Cause I know I wouldn't buy, and niether would many others. So advertisers jump in to get there would out there, cause they know alot of people are watching. But youtube has to find a good balance

[InfliktionDrums]

@TheMancow226 stfu, youtube wouldnt be up if not for vevo and google. the dislike bar is just as good, and if anything i have seen youtube improve twelvefold since the start. you dont even upload any videos, so whats it to you and vevo's uploading rights

[tiger104432]

@iloveyoufornever21 why

[TheEmmatje]

this is simply the best song ever . <3

[DerSpanierTchSupport]

It is a wonderful song. I just wish the radio hadn't overplayed it for so long. Now it's just so mainstream that the world assumes it's just like the others. A sad fate.

[darkwitch88]

great vid n song thnx 4 uploadin :)

[carschasing]

its "i know saint peter WON'T call my name"

[Hochiarala]

This song is wonderful.The music is..I can't describe it.There isn't words.

[I0met0him]

(Court House):

Judge: The defense may now present his case

My Lawyer: Your Honor, my client would like to plead GUILTY to raping the YouTube replay button.

YouTube replay button: *sob, sniffle...

[linkj16]

"One minute I held the key, Next the walls were closed on me"

[angelitaki]

There's a Part in this song, that if you speak spanish you will hear:

" en su bolsillo" ... But it really says " My Sword, My shield" ... Kinda interesting?..

[tzuyulee]

[penguinchip]

@tzuyulee My god learn to spell.

[nigafigya]

[misslover6421]

i remeber my cousin was singing this for her 8th grade choir she was so happy :) this is her fav song ever :) and one of my many favorite songs :)

[aikdanne]

SLEEP alone, not sweep alone. moron

[Arthurmike]

@aikdanne Who gives a crap. This song is too epic to get corrected by. You cant make better.

[nigafigya]

@Arthurmike i agree completely.

[ChristineScholz]

this song has to be about louise the XVI i cant think of anyone else...

yeah almost positive.....

[MrThrib]

Calvary. Not "cavalry". Moron.

[AnnaSofiaR]

@MrThrib Cavalry. Calvary was a place. "The Cavalry is coming, the Cavalry is coming" = soldiers.

[chazaroony94]

One direction introduced me to this song<3

[arlh1000]

hm... Its a good song and all, its very good, but compared to stuff like, Speed of Sound, Violet Hill, Yellow, Trouble, Clocks, Fix You and Talk, those songs are in another league than this, but its still a good song, no doubt about it!

[Tehultimateone1]

i think this just became my most favourite song

[ojewel]

I love coldplay and having the lyrics is great.

[neild555]

God Bless You!!

[Sonic134567898]

[willzdbestoder]

Cool song good job

[BestFriendsWithEspio]

@alvinchipmunks90 Ahaaah, I know that vid. xD They did a good job editing stuff to make it look real, eh? *isn't purposely being sarcastic btw*

[W6H1232]

I could be wrong, but I believe the lyrics are: " My missionaries in a foreign field / For some reason I can't explain / I know Saint Peter won't call my name."
