  • July 6 in PHILLY.. get em!

  • I'm not saying this to state the obvious. I'm saying it because I honestly just picked up on it after listening to this song and album in its entirety ten million times but "hurts like heaven" is a play on the expression "hurts like hell".... it's kind of deep and really cool to think about it that way

  • "You use your heart like a weapon, and it hurts like heaven. . ."

  • INDONESIA PLEASEEE!!!!

  • So koool so kollll

  • fuuuuuuuuuuucccccccccck, this is where MX all began for me.

  • How was this the first HQ live performance? I saw them in Cape Town on October the 5th 2011 (19 days before this) and it was recorded? Epic concert btw.

  • @rosiegrace999 U mad, bro? This concert was on 4th of June 2011 (i was there btw), so it was recorded more than 4 month before you saw Coldplay in Cape Town.

    MX was _released_ on 24th of October, but started playing a few songs from MX in June. In fact, this was the second show where the new songs were played. First one was June 3rd, @ Rock im Park, Germany.

  • @rosiegrace999 this video was uploaded before October 5th, so I sincerely doubt that you saw them 19 days before they played this festival. I'd guess that you're thinking of Rock in Rio as opposed to Rock am Ring.

  • Got tickets for their september concert in Warsaw \o/

  • I come to see them in olumpic stadium in sweden stockholm in ocktober.

  • God I wish I was there. Favorite band, favorite song, AND fireworks?!?

  • @noaveragefangirl it also was raining cats and dogs which gave the show a pretty nice atmosphere.

  • seeing them in boston this summer!

  • seeing them jersey<3

  • they come to the netherlands :D maybe i am going. but my dad doesn't know yet if we should go or not :( but the tickets are still available :D

  • und ich war DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  • I will cry if I never get to see them in concert, too. I love Coldplay.

  • i know i will never get the chance to see them live and it hurts like heaven :D

  • i came for the amazing music...

    and the rainbow people!

  • i just got back from a noperation, and my mouth was anesthesiaded.

    now the anesthesia has worn off

    and it hurts like heaven

  • fuck what everybody thinks, coldplay is the best band/musician these days

  • And Coldplay knows exactly what heaven feels like. Considering they're from there.

  • going to see them in may!! OMG IM SO GOING TO CRY I KNOW IT!! super excitedd! i love them <3

  • love the guitar from 1:37 to 1:59 !! <3

  • Much better song than Paradise. I don't understand why Paradise is a more popular single?

  • @RubenDBLL their songs are better or worse, each of their super

  • "written in graffiti on a bridge in a park".

    best line ever

  • I'M GOING TO SEE THEM IN MAY, IN PORTUGAL :D

  • quiero que venga a argentina me muero de ansiedad !!____u.u

  • OMG VERY NICEEEEEEEEEEE

  • Can't wait to see them in Seattle...SO EXCITED!

  • Maravilloso!!

  • whoever disliked this should go to hell

  • No words can even begin to describe how astounding this song is live! On record it's still a great song but when it's played live like it is here, it is a true wonder of the world!

  • Yesterday at Bercy was soooooooooooooo great... :'). Unbelievable, wonderful, magic... Coldplay.

  • Anyone notice how the piano says "STOLE A KEY" on it at 4:08? So clever!

  • I cried when i saw them on X factor. It's because they are amazing. They make their own music, with their own lyrics and their own instrumental background. They are so brilliant and make such good music and that's why i cried - NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC

  • going to see them in Prague 09/2012, oh thank god

  • if this song was a potato it would be a good potato

  • sounds like heaven

  • so cold so cooold so cold so cooldplay is awesome

  • elegance, in its simplicity.

  • so cold sooo coooold

  • For me, it was the acoustics off the Chicago scrapers in the background at the guitar riff around 1:38+. Never heard anything like it before! Go green! Reduce your footprint today! God bless us all!

  • Call me a punk, I would've cried seeing them in this beautiful concert.

  • so cold like coldplay!! =D

  • Easily my favourite track on this album.

  • Yay! I got to be "Like" number 2000.

    Coldplay rules!! if you're looking for an opening band check out "New York City Girls by The Chance.

  • if anyone cares we did a full band live in the studio cover of "Hurts Like Heaven" and "Paradise"

  • @SometimeInNovemberCA I care. :)

  • @MoonStruckHorrorsX Thanks MoonStruckHorrorsX!

  • I didn't see why this song didn't do the coldplay magic for me until now! I haven't heard the live version. The studio version is nothing compared to this!

  • @KingSquirrelBoy - they WERE near Dallas a couple of months ago at the Austin City Limits Festival. Great concert - they opened with this song. Hopefully they'll tour in 2012. So ready to see them again..

  • I seriously will cry if I never get to see them in concert. I'm 18 and they haven''t been near Dallas in a while. Like if you want them to never ever ever stop touring.

  • @KingSquirrelboy back in 2008 I went to see them at Houston and on 2009 they went again to Houston and to San Antonio. This year they went to Austin for the ACL music festival. They should include one of those cities in their next North American tour...

  • @KingSquirrelboy I've seen them 3 times - every single one was in Glasgow, Scotland

  • @KingSquirrelboy They just announced the Mylo Xyloto tour for North America! Getting my tickets next weekend for the Houston concert on June 25th! :) Dallas should be before or after that day!!!

  • @KingSquirrelboy THEY'RE COMING TO HOUSTON! and I think I'll cry if I don't get to see them too :(

  • @KingSquirrelboy I know how you feel. I live in Denver and I really really hope they visit us soon. The midwest needs more Coldplay! :)

  • @KingSquirrelboy In 6 months I will be crying <3

  • @KingSquirrelboy Yes,you will cry. Cause so did me and my friends,haha, show after show!

  • @KingSquirrelboy im seeing them on june at sunderland stadium of light cart wait ;D

  • Jonny Buckland really is on the correct side of awesome.

  • So many coils and chakras everywhere.. dats symbols of divinity and evolutionl!!!

  • Mylo xyloto, sounds almost identical to the intro to lovers in Japan, was this intentional?

  • hey guys check out my guitar cover of this song! feel free to like/dislike it for ur time. thanks!!

  • The little rainbow man is so hypnotic.

  • I'm pretty sure I can say I love these guys and this song and the new album and what they mean to the world of listeners. When they toured in 2006, I called my mom from the concert. She was in her last days here on earth and I just wanted her to hear a bit of what I was experiencing. Thank you Coldplay. You all are amazing in so very many ways...

  • This song really needs an official video clip..

  • anyone know they next time they're coming to Toronto?

  • I can see that they have drawn inspiration from Muse's stage design! nice!

  • P.S.

    I wanted to see Muse again, but my friend talked me into seeing Coldplay. Thank God!

  • Yes. The guitarist is highly overlooked. He's the shit. As far as studio vs. Live, all the studio effects are added into live performances these days, so the only difference really is being there and the character of the band which the studio can't record. Being there is almost always better!!!!!!

  • anyone understood what he said at 4:30?

  • I like the studio version. It's less acoustic, sure, but I think the added effects make it even better.

  • What a riff that is after the first "Hurts like heaven", VERY under-rated guitarist!

  • Truly an unbelievable song done live. The acoustics of this song are undescribable. You really have to hear this song done live to appreciate it. I'm not normally so courteous with my Yayo's, but this one is a Killllllllller. Get to Coldplay anyway you can.

  • If my life flashes before my eyes before I die, this will be a clip. You Must See Coldplay Live Before You Die!

  • August 2011, Grant Park, Chicago Lollapalooza. In the middle of 50,000 steaming people. Saw Muse the night before in Indy front row (wow, and how). So we end up front and center at the Bud Light Stage sweating with HOT Brazillian chicks waiting for Coldplay to come out. (ha ha). High as hell, Chicago skyline glistening in the background, (surrounded by hot Brazillian chics), BAM out they come with Hurts like Heaven, never heard before, fireworks going off, wind carrying the sound. My God.

  • Why is everybody complaining on how the studio version is worse than this one. I think that HLH on MX is not bad, besides the LP is crap. Only a few good songs.

  • Live's version is wasy better than studio version.

  • i love the contrast between mylo and this song. its awesome. they rocked this new album

  • /watch?v=sCP19P2yX8c

    Hello, hurts like heaven album version!! ;)

  • Mylo Xyloto reminds me of an album called 'Technique' by New Order. I would definitely recommend that record for anyone who enjoys listening to Coldplay's recent stuff.

  • and I was there

  • I like the live version more than the album version...

    what a gorgeous song

  • I LOVE YOU CHRIS MARTIN! YOU ARE THE BEST SKILLED MUSICAN EVER.

    Iam so excited to see you in frankurt in december

  • @BurrellRegan itunes is streaming one song from the album everyday until it comes out.

  • awesome album! Love all tracks, listening in FLAC is amazing experience. Well done

  • have the album, this is the sickest coldplay song ever. The WHOLE album is outstanding, i cant wait for the world to hear it. CP keep it up!!

  • We did a full band live in Alcatrax Studios cover of "Hurts Like Heaven" if anyone cares to watch...

  • I have this album hoho! It's awesome :}}

  • This is bloody fantastic.

  • @Lordmoska oh and i should mention that it won't be up on itunes for too much longer since they're going to replace it with another song from the album in a few hours or so

  • @Lordmoska you can stream it on itunes in United Kingdom, United States, France, Canada, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Spain, Mexico, Italy, Finland, Norway.. and i assume there are some other websites that are streaming it as well

  • Why is the audio quality so terrible? Sounds like it was recorded with one dodgy microphone 100 metres away from the stage.

  • amazing drums !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i've got to say, i do prefer the live version of this song over the studio version, i hate what they did with chris' voice in ths studio version

  • is anyone else shocked at how different the studio version is from this version? the live version is a billion times better

  • @bobdolelost where did you listened the studio version?

  • @bobdolelost Totally, because they didn't add all those shitty digital effects here. This is how coldplay should sound :(

  • @bobdolelost no, studio version is so much better

  • @bobdolelost I don't really hear a difference xD

  • @bobdolelost

    me too, all the songs on the new album sound a little bit strange

  • @bobdolelost

    Live they are brilliant^^

  • @bobdolelost always is!

  • @bobdolelost I though I was the only one! I LOVE the live version!!

  • @bobdolelost No way. This performance isn't that great. I swear his voice couldn't have cracked one more time.
