  • cuando coldplay era coldplay.

  • @coldplayer97joanna Y que es ahora? Coldplay es lo mejor ayer hoy y siempre :D

  • breathtaking!!!

  • beautiful song!

  • Stunning song. I think this needs to be added back to the set list along with Amsterdam.

  • @ImJustMilesAway Couldn't agree more. Swallowed in the sea and Amsterdam are one of the best songs Coldplay have written. I would love it if they added it to their set list along with all the other great classics!

  • This song is PURE MAGIC! :')

  • Hands down best Coldplay song ever.

  • the piano-part at the end...its just magic.... thanks for the great moment

  • What good is in to live with nothing left to give?

    Live your life by that line, and the world will be a better place.

  • @Kakabeblen:soo right

  • this song reminds of my teenage summer at the beach with all that endless love and solitude........

  • awesome, but would be more awesome in HD ;)

  • the last minute.... fantastic thanks chris..... thank you very much

  • @SLEEPYHEAD901 the magic of coldplay ;)

  • @SLEEPYHEAD901

    great song choice. ^_^

  • Worst part: 4:48

  • Actually shiver to this song.... which sends me to coldplay - shiver .... :D

  • 3:12 EPIC 

  • 3:42 to 4:10 should be sent to heaven rigth now

  • i feel this is the most underrated song of coldplay's. this song is one of their best! awesome.

  • @prowsey1993 Honestly, i feel that the entire X&Y album was heavily, heavily underrated all together. I listen to that album now and I think it's incredible, there are a few songs that don't hit as hard but it's still a great album. lol Not quite as good as Rush of Blood to The Head imo. Which is still the album to beat because every song on that album just hit.

  • @Tetreault445 i totally agree with everything u said. but i also think parachutes was pre awesome just because it includes yellow haha. coldplay made such a high stardard of music that im not surprised they couldnt keep it up...

  • @prowsey1993 Lol I wouldn't say that they couldn't keep up. I loved Viva La Vida even with all the changes they went through. I honestly think, that if your a coldplay fan you will be blown away at this next album, I don't know why I just have this feeling that this album is going to be something more than any of us could expect. lol I hope that feeling is right. We''ll see. Agree with the parachutes statement too. Great album too.

  • @Tetreault445 i wish i was as optomistic as you... i do like viva la vida album and those recent singles theyve made, but not as much. I seem to keep getting the feeling im listening to a totally different coldplay with this new one..

    but i spose i shouldnt say anything too soon.. fingers crossed!

  • What's instrument is at the begining? It's affected so beautifully...especially the album version.

  • I love him!!!!!!

  • The best crowd for the best band ever!

  • Haha I've never seen his hair that long and curly! =D

  • 1 of my fav song from my fav band ♥♥♥

  • chris is like a modern day musical shakespeare and coldplay will keep producing music that will get better and better over time

  • @MrJeeves007 i doubt it unfortunately.. =( he is the musical shakespeare, but just like shakespeare, his earlier stuff is the best...

  • Oh my God.... How wonderful it must have been to be there

  • This song makes me cry...

  • Reminds me of the girl that just dumped me...you can only do so much. Bittersweet

  • It's insane how melodious and how emotional their songs are.. and this one in particular. What a band!

  • THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG EVER CREATED.

  • 12 persons have no soul...

  • 12 persons have no soul....

  • well that's where I belong! :D

  • i love the beginning of this, and when everyone's singing  :) just gives me such a calming feeling.

    Coldplay iv loved you since i was 11 and don't think i'll ever stop.

  • chris' piano solo in the end is so beautiful. they perform this song with so much emotion that it gets even better than on the CD. why don't they perform it more often?? <33

    "every teardrop is a waterfall" tomorrow!!! omg finally!!! i won't be able to sleep tonight!! :DDD

  • Watching this video again, I realize why Coldplay is so great. This song is as sensitive, personal, and loving as any song ever performed. It captures Chris' decision to settle down and get married, to live with her on a street "a thousand houses long." It is his wedding proposal. Yet he performs it with a big rock band sound. I particularly like Chris' piano interlude near the end. After seeing them live in 2009, i realize this big rock band sound in songs like Politik and In My Place.

  • Happyhappyhappyhappyhappy<3

  • 12 people have no taste in music

  • How CAN'T you like this video??

  • why there's no the official vid? :(

  • great song, awesome band.

  • CHECK MY EXTENDED VERSION!ALL YOU FANS WOULD LOVE IT!I'M SURE! ♥ /watch?v=-fqwAHPOhSc

  • Coldplay has inspired and uplifted for years. Their music is something fans can always fall back on and thats something you can't get from just any musician. The amount of dedication and talent these four guys have is incredible. The realness and emotion in their music is something rare, especially today. Thankyou Coldplay for making my and thousands of peoples lives better even when things don't seem so great. <3

  • Get lost and then get found

    Or swallowed in the sea

  • Great job on editing!

  • I love how the crowd was singing along with him... like how they are all one people, one united voice. beautiful.

  • 12 people swallowed in the sea

  • @ivan200595 How could there even be 12?

  • 12 people swallowed in the sea

  • Great lyrics, even better music. I keep on wondering how big will Coldplay get to be if they keep on being so wonderful.

  • Not loving all you see!!...amazing song, love it

  • Gash, awesum! <3

  • I wonder how do they always manage to make the lyrics so unique, beautiful and amazing...

  • Coldplay = Brilliant

    And Chris Martin is too adorable with curly hair.

  • Best Coldplay song ever!!

  • please please come to MALAYSIA. i hate the never-ending justin bieber-like artists performing in my country. i need you, coldplay. don't let me be swallowed in the sea of crappy mainstream music. COLDPLAY forever in my heart.

  • This song is a masterpiece

  • I fall in love with coldplay (and this song) every time I listen to them (which is like many times a day)

  • An amazing song.

  • i freakin love this song i jus cant get it out of my mind.....it reminds me of unconditional love...

  • I love when the crowd sings every word. =D

  • @AmnesiaRain The unconditional generosity of thier music is it gives to the audience and the audience gives back elevating the experience all around. Its selflessness pure and simple.

  • What would life be without coldplay? Really shitty I think

  • He couldn't write a song. He wrote a masterpiece.

  • @tehmon1 because its not just this song, its every song by coldplay. they are a beatles-class band.

  • When will they come to Toronto againnnn?

  • Hideously underated coldplay song, had it been a single, it'd have been regarded a classic! I sing it loud and pretty badly on my way home from work most days, love it

  • this is the stand out song on the X&Y album

  • 12 person are swallowed in the sea ;)

  • Comment removed

  • My favorite Coldplay song.

  • doesn't it sound like he's playing "let it be" at the end? around 3:40

  • Comment removed

  • thumbs up if this song reminds you that you love life

  • 12 people are swallowed in the sea

  • im jealous of everyone in the audience. I wish i was there. This song is amazing and i will always love this song

  • hey!

    I'm a linkin park's fan, but I'm a huge fan of coldplay too.. I really hope the 12 are actually bieber's (or some crap like that) fans -.-

    be nice ppl ^^

  • "If I could write a song a hundred miles long" possibly the best lyrics ever ?

  • 12 linkin park`s fans.

  • @star12813 Im a linkin park's fan but i chose the LIKE button ;)

  • god at the end when hes playing the piano... reminds me of a man who is crazy and lost in the world and the only thing he knows is music, the only thing that keeps him sane is music. and right at that moment he is doing the only thing he knows, getting lost in the music and the beautiful melodies which at times are the only things that keep him going

  • A definite ode to everyone for the one that got away...

  • when you assholes out there click the dislike button, you're just fucking with us arent ya?

  • I LOVE THEM!! this song can trade a tear for a smile in a heart beat!! :') almost feels like they wrote it for me!! GRACIAS!! <3

  • The BEST Coldplay song ever! The sad part is my song count on iTunes says I've listened to this song 469 times (and I'm still not even close to tired of it!).

  • @charlottesmom mine says 200

  • @tehmon1 How come Canadians make the best crowds? LOL

  • FUCKING LOVE THIS

    goosebumps all over my body, omg

  • this gives me chills every time i watch this. hearing that many people sing a long to your song, you know your doing something amazing. I LOVE THISS!!!!!

  • @tehmon1 and this isnt the only coldplay song that does that they are all absolutely brilliant

  • 11 DON'T LIKE!!!! FOOLS!!!! I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG <3

  • And its with these kind of music that love borns between people...

  • this is one of my favorite Coldplay songs!!!

    words cannot express how much I love Coldplay for changing my life 5 years ago with their brilliant music!!!

  • love it!

  • its amazing that today we have kesha and lady gaga with autotones and that kind of stuff. and then four college friends can go on stage with a piano, guitar, drums and bass...and do this

  • @tarheel734 Lady Gaga is not autotune.

  • @AmnesiaRain :d and you believe it?

  • @tarheel734 Agreed mate, also this is by far the greatest live performance I've ever seen. Sounds exactly like the studio version if not better!

  • @tarheel734

    Too bad that on the new album they have a duet with Rihanna.

  • @tarheel734 Lady Gaga is the last person to use autotune, yes her music is electronic and highly edited, but her voice is pure and one of the best in the entire music industry, in the past and in the present. Don't talk shit you know nothing about.

  • This is absolutely brilliant...

    Fantastic band, hope they will start touring next year again...

  • luvv it... :P

  • Performers who can actually perform live beautifully. who woulda thunk it

  • ...and I could write a song, a hunded miles long, well that's where I belong.

  • Chris' voice .. Song lyrics .. Guitar string .. Every single tune touches the very deep part of my heart .. honestly

  • Iam not sure if this is the best coldplay song, but its my favourite without a doubt.

  • the melody, fuck. just absolutely incredible

  • this version is better than the album version IMO

  • fantastic!

  • Coldplay just has that ability to make you feel like god is talking you

  • Real Music. Period.

  • this song is just underrated. it's like amazing ecstasy :)

  • Zooooooo mooi!

  • I love Coldplay, and yes i am a guy. Call me gay if you wish, but Coldplay is a band that you cannot ignore. Chris Martin has a powerful and beautiful voice that is amazing. I <3 you Coldplay!!

  • coldplay is for men secure in their sexual identity, and who have good musical taste.

    I agree, I cannot ignore them.

  • Oh my god!!

    Just fantastic!

  • This si simply amazing, simply beautiful, simply everything. I love them, this song, this performance, everything is just love

  • There is not much to say except: Amazing song, amazing band and absolutely amazing performance. Coldplay have the most genuine and heartfelt songs, with beautiful lyrics and fantastic melodies. Favorite band forever and ever. Long live Coldplay!

  • The tempo's a bit fast. Can anybody tell who is playing the music from 0:00 to 1:12.

  • @Ganwarable

    Thats Jonny, on a Shimmer Reverb setting : )

  • @Jpkingu2

    What the hell is that?

  • @Ganwarable

    It's a guitar setting buddy.

    Used mostly by The Edge for U2 but Jonny's taken it and lowered the attack on the guitar to the level where it sounds close to a keyboard, but it's still a guitar.

  • @Jpkingu2

    Thanks. A little more detail would have helped.

  • @Ganwarable It's youtube dude, look it up for yourself.

  • Lovely, lovely, lovely... Great performance!

  • great video!!

  • Awesome video..great job editing!

  • Coldplay is too awesome for words!!

  • ive listened to this song at least 500 times since X and Y came out...and I'll probably listen to it another 500 more times. amazing, really.

  • 11 people just don't know anything about music...

    Long live Coldplay! Most beautiful lyrics ever!

  • one of their best song

  • I love coldplay but never heard this song. Holy macaroni its awesome!

  • I love this music so much!!!

  • IVE JUST SHIT TEARS X the people rose in 69 theyll do it again at anytime x

  • NOTHING IS BETTER THAN CHRIS MARTIN. 

  • This is just the best song in the world, so simple but with so much feeling and emotional lyrics. I saw them live a year ago, and it was without a doubt the best day in my life. There aren't many bands who can create such an atmosphere and grace in a live performance.

  • @MisterSnig haha wow, you're a close-minded, stereotyping idiot :)

    You make me laugh(x

  • holy shit this is amazing

  • Chris's long hair funny:D it is a beautiful song♥

  • This is one of my favorite songs by coldplay! Amazing!

  • bellissima! i migliori!!

  • So much talent with the piano. Real emotion. :)

  • he was thirty fifth on the forbes list...... he should have been number one, he rocks my world anyhow!

  • under-rated.

  • there are no words to describe a song/performance like this...and people call them ''talentless''..???.id like to know what ''talents'' these people all have?? i love the way everytime i see them perform they make changes to their songs and dont always just sing exactly the same all the time,and they are always great.''hardest part'' on the viva tour is a perfect example..what are all these 'critics' doing listening to coldplay anyway if they dont like them??

  • Cool way to end the song

  • oh god, is this song fantastic. especially the different end

  • My fauvorite song on the entire world. Coldplay = musical genius

  • Beautifully sung....

    Namaste

  • Check out my RARE coldplay songs guys

  • I wish they would make more songs like this i HATE the thought of brian Eno saying no to songs like this!

  • what good is it to live with nothing left to give

  • @Muchy92 forget but not forgive, not loving all you see... my fauvorite part of the song

  • @Patricoldplayer of the streeets your walking oooonn, a thousand miles looong, well thats where i belonggg and you belong with me.. haha too good!

  • @Muchy92

    Aniway, great lyrics!

    just love this song!

  • I am not ashamed to admit this: I've been listening to this song for the last 5 years. I've never once heard a live version of it. I've always thought, all those high notes, how could Chris hit them perfectly without being in a studio? Well a couple weeks ago I was surfing through concert vids and came across this video. I told myself not to watch it, but I did anyways. After watching, I couldn't believe I even doubted Coldplay or Chris. Perfect Singing. Perfect Music. Perfect Band. Much RESPECT

  • maybe this isn`t the most knowed song of Coldplay, but it is a very good one!! I really love it!!

  • I would consider this as the most romantic song a guy could ever sing to me.... So much of a poetry and thoughtfull meanings :)

  • Yeah ! I like this song.

  • I loveeeeeeeeeee it..!! every time i see this video.. it makes me shiver because of the emotion.. Coldplay Amazing!!

  • I wonder if Phil could convince chris to shave his head, so he looks like he did 8 years ago, hahahaha.

  • @Justlegos that'll probably never happen, chris likes to have short hair but being as though his hairline is receding everyday; he keeps it long to look younger. lol, completely true. i heard chris say it himself.

  • My favourite song in thee whole world

  • great song, simple as that
