Does it matter what Viva la Vida means!? You come on Youtube to listen to music and enjoy it not as some idiots do to troll! Just enjoy the song and how wonderful it is!
@GalakFyarr He didnt mean "hooray" literally. The phrase is a celebratory chant people make in excitement, so hooray is good enough. You can't really directly translate the "Viva" of the phrase the way you want, without losing the meaning. The closest thing would be "Long live...", but that phrase is more towards a person.
Live life? yes but no, at least not in this context. although its a direct translation it loses the celebratory emphasis that it has in spanish french and so on
@mrhuskey324 Viva la vida is spanish, not portuguese... i know it because I speak Portuguese AND spanish... and Viva means Live, la means The and Vida means Life! Google translater as some issues
@bburago9 "Viva" its a expression for celebration, but i think by the song, that it is much more about live, getting risky, overcome obstacles, archievements, feel youre the man, until the point you discover that you are nothing.. or the things that made u feel like a king arent that important anymore...
fuckit my english sucks hehe
viva a vida não é só celebrar.. é viver, se arriscar, ouzar, "quebrar a cara", e perceber que fez merda suficiente para não entrar no céu :P
@iShotUrBarbieDx Programme? I assume you're British. Over here in New England we write is as program, which makes more sense to me, seeing as it's closer to the root "gram". I've always found it funny that English is slowly splitting into British and American dialects, spelling and pronunciation.
wow when i herd this song i first herd Cher LIoyd cover but hearing this i really love it! Cher did amazing and she changed it quite different!! but it sounded nice! i really love it!!
Very odd, but every time I listen to this song, it reminds me and my friends, and all the adventures we go on. Like making houses in trees, just being kids, and having fun with it! Nature is our legacy, and we love every minute we are apart of it. So why not build random crap in trees, have some laugh, and stay outside the whole day? Lots of fun.
Love the song, reminds me i'm still a kid even though I am older now and a "teenager". I still love the little random "adventures" outside(:
I used to repeat this song a thousand times.. OH, wait! What...? I'm hearing the bells ringing in Jerusalem right now! Oh, wait again. Maybe I'm just high
I think this song is about regrets. How this person used to be before, had his way n was happy wen he wasn't being honest or true to himself. Dan when he decided to change n was honest.. things were not the same. Its abt how life can beat you down.. i think.
@spoonrocks It's a pep tune in my marching band to play in the stands at football/basketball games and at pep rallies. People seem to really enjoy it.
there would be NO arguements if YouTube took thumbs up and thumbs down, seriously youtube is for watching videos and listning to songs you like, seriously get a fucking grip
my tenth grade history teacher made us listen to this song when we where learning about Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette....now 3 years later everytime i listen to this song, i think about the french revolution. :/
When I first heard this song I turned up the stereo and let loose the "Air Violins". With the song finished I turned around and saw my wife and her MOTHER standing there shaking their heads. My mother in law then said to my wife, " I told you not to marry him". What I said to my mother in law is the reason why I'm homeless now. I still like this song though.
My high school choir did this song at our graduation, best version i ever heard. But i just wanted to say how important spelling is. I really hate lyric videos with misspelled words
Wintertime; me - in my warm bedroom, listening to this song, watching through the window how the freezing wind blows and I try to figure out how to dress to NOT TO be cold:)
