  • Frank Ocean.

  • whi is this song not more popular?

  • Comment removed

  • @babiegirl1987 But, unfortunately, it doesn't rank no. 5 on the most relaxing songs of all time while this one does.

  • I agree both good versions but Frank oceans has much more feeling.

  • @babiegirl1987 This is an original single by Coldplay, it was there fifth and final single on the album Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (they wrote this song). Frank Ocean did a cover( he didn't do it first).Look it up and educate YOURSELF! (I hate stupid people who think their right)

  • @babiegirl1987 ... youre an idiot. frank ocean released his mixtape last year. look at the date this video was posted

  • @kefkapalazzo1 Chillax, I didn't realise until I had posted my comment. Ease up its just youtube. Seriously.

  • @babiegirl1987 I hope you feel like a dumbass for saying that maybe you should educate yourself before putting such a stupid comment on here!

  • heard the frank ocean version, and i kinda think its better than this one, js

  • @iarekillerpie That version is horrible, Coldplay is the greatest band in the world and he ruined an amazingly beautiful song

    How dare he dub his voice over Coldplay's actual recording and sing different lyrics above Chris', why do people do this, just ruined the lyrics and threw so much delay on his voice, and the horrible ringing at the end!?!? WHY WORLD!?

  • los amo

  • Vsauce sent me here..!!

  • not that relaxing to be the 6 th in the world vsaurce LIES

  • 5th most relaxing

  • Thumbs up if vsauce sent u to this song because it's the 6th most relaxing song ever written

  • with the video it's better!

  • WHY IS COLDPLAY SO AWESOME?

  • @Greenqueen222 Not just because all others are lame! Cuz they're the best!!!

  • Today i was riding the bike and it was a normal day in fact it was more of a boring day. But I was listening to this song on my bike and smiling really hard :D I swear I almost had to laugh it was unbelievable to me! Oh and people looked at me, they were confused^^

  • @TheBigTano95 because are plaged!!!: Delakota - The Rock

  • Everytime I listen to this, I always put my headphones in, and close my eyes and just block out the world...

     Whenever I do this I picture driving over rolling grassy hills in the countryside with the top down on my convertible and the wind blowing my hair back and the sky is the most beautiful blue ive ever seen, the clouds the fluffiest, and purest white...

    And I go to this place in my head everyday with this song playing in my ears, and ive never been so calm in my entire life<3

  • why is there a dislike button...seriously?

  • lol to everyone and there heart-felt comments ^-^ =,P

  • Frank Ocean

  • the clip was directed by Joseph Goebbels.

    Coldplay - NO.1 NAZI band ever !!!!

  • I have relied on this song when I was in the worst of times and when I was feeling sad and low and no matter what mood I'm in this song always made me feel alive and happy and worth something acctually all of Coldplays music did/does and this is why I will always love them

  • This song was stolen from God's ipod.

  • @emileh1lol nice one bro! lol peace out.

  • Does anyone else just want to skip around when they hear this? It makes me feel all jumpy and happy...

  • Oh it's your 2rd favourite song, I see.

  • It's so strange...this is such a simple song, but while I listen to it, I get a sudden rush of euphoria...like everything is perfect, and beautiful, and just wonderful, if only for the duration of this song. It's such a perfect day...

  • Sumazau people should have been given credits because of Coldplay's success by playing this song and people enjoy it. It is really nice to listen. Coldplay should tell people about this. First time I heard I felt like I have listened to it.

  • I thought Coldplay has come to Sarawak, Malaysia because this music is from Sumazau clan, which is an ethnic in Sarawak. They have a music instrument to play this kind of music. When I read many comments, none of this has been mentioned. And I think people should know the facts.

  • @87namqul yeah, i thought that so, if I'm not mistaken the music instrument is Sitar,... don't really remember ;)

  • @EyzaBaby06 i am from India... I think i have a pretty good idea how a sitar sounds like... i am pretty sure that it is not a sitar... i guess it's just an electric guitar, synthesized...

  • @87namqul The fact is that Coldplay uses an electric guitar with a delay and I don't see them giving credit to the people that made that either.

  • viva la vida got so few good song's... this is one good song, but the outher albuns were bether, less mass media, more original...

  • I am so tired of "music snobs" coming down on Coldplay.

    I hadn't heard this song before and was watching a wedding video, Googled the lyrics "without you it's a waste of time"… lo and behold COLDPLAY! I do love their music, I'll have to catch up on their albums.

  • simba and nala are running around kicking up dust as they dash on the desert ground. zazu is flying overhead, close to the sun, casting shadows down on the earth. this is what i see with this song:)

  • Coldplay... Is slagged off by so many. Its simple, affective, and the lyrics are simple genius... What have they done so bad?

  • AWSOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • excellent!

  • Great song!

    I'love

    Pretty and sweet song!

  • Its amazing this song reminds me of all the good things about life.Its really hard to think about good things than bad

  • indeed, someone does say exactly that

  • Begins like a creole song I heard once. Interesting. I wonder if Martin was influenced by it for this song?

  • yeah it's influenced by a sort of west african genre of music - i'm ghanaian and the start of this song is quite familiar

  • their best song I think

  • I think it's funny, some people remember about something that happened to them, others remember bands... I just can't think of anything while listening to it! my throat gets stuck, my mouth gets dry, my eyes fill up with tears... it's such an intense experience! You can't imagine... the song is so damn simple! And without it it's a waste of time! the lyrics are so pure! I love coldplay, I think they are one of the best bands nowadays but this song... it's something else, it belongs in heaven....

  • This song is about best friends, correct?

    i love it!

  • I love this song!

    I can really imagine a perfect day on endless green fields just before sunset...

    It's just an amazing song!

  • this song is awesome :)

  • Honestly, I can't find any song on this album that doesn't settle with me.

    Everytime I go outside on a lovely day, feeling the sun on my shoulders,

    I mellow out thinking of this song.

    Absolutely great.

  • listen and enjoy :)

  • This is one of my favorite songs in the CD because of the creativity and genius of it. It often is not noticed by many because it is deemed too simple and it is outshined by Viva La Vida or Lost! like all the other songs are. However, the way they took an old-fashioned country-like riff and turned it into a calming soft rock song. They completely transformed the style. Coldplay truly is a great band. However, I still prefer Keane. Sorry.

  • This song is great!!!!

    Can't get this out of my head!!! :D

    All ther songs are great!!!

    COLDPLAY RULES!!!!

  • im going to their concert at the end of this month!! i love this song, i love all of their songs..! :P

  • Oh you lucky lucky person you! lol I want to go to at least one of their concerts in my lifetime. They are simply brilliant. : )

  • Please please please coldplay make a video for this perfect song!

  • Beautiful song!!!

  • anyone finds the guitar theme as it was taken from some 70s krautrock? for me it sounds like popol vuh ;]

  • very true, though this guitar riff is as old as time. I wouldn't consider it taking the guitar theme, since it seems to appear in a popular song every decade or so.

  • If Coldplay doesn't win the Grammy awards for best album and best song, then I'm going to go crazy! :D

  • this is the real gem in viva la vida. My favorite song in coldplay so far.

  • Love this song

  • This song is sooo relax!!!!!

    I LOVE COLDPLAY!!! :D:D:D

  • Its too bad that we live in a world of over appreciated singles and unappreciated gems. This song is my favorite off the new CD and is simply moving. I think of the past and the present and hope for the future as i listen. Simply a masterpiece.

  • I totally agree. Another problem: people just want the singles, what has been presented to them on a silver platter ... they don't want to take risks and discover the bands' other materials. It's a sad thing, really - knowing that some music will go on hiding under the overwhelming shadows of the overplayed crowd pleasers.

    And this song doesn't deserve to be kept up on the shelf collecting dust.

  • Although I don't think I can say this in a Metaphor, but I agree. People should explore more songs other than the hit singles. Especially for this artist.

  • Totally with you. Non Coldplay fans only know of their hit singles, and brilliance like this just goes away without any recognition.

    Coldplay have some really fantastic B sides as well.

  • Oh yeah, definately!

  • took the words out of my mouth

  • Beautiful...

  • lol i used this song with the girl i met on the cruise and we were just laying down beside each other listening to this song, sh really enjoyed it as did i

  • Whoa! This song just made me cheerful

  • haha this is a fantastic song by coldplay!

  • LOVE IT ♥♥♥♥♥

  • jeej! Feel-good song!! :)

    I can listen to it for the whole day!

  • lovely song soft melody yet solid meanin...Simply COLDPLAY

  • Oh, how the imagination wanders with this amazing song!

  • Now the sky could be blue

    I don´t mind

    without you is a waste of time

    my favorite song of VIVA LA VIDA

  • How lovely this song.

    love it! ;)

  • this is freakin adorable.

    its so amazing

    i love it.

    :] makes u wanna be romantic xD

  • This song sounds so happy.. but the meaning is so much deeper than just happiness.. it really touches my heart.

  • This reminds me of my best friend...who's no longer between us =( It reminds me of the perfect moments we spent together...all those perfect and happy memories...

    And to finish all that, without him, it really feels like a waste of time...

    Perfect song, like everything Coldplay does...they have the gift to touch everyone's hearts and say exactly how you feel, when most of the times you couldn't put it in words yourself...

    LOVE THEM <3

  • i <3 this song its so cheery and happy! for me its the bees knees <33333333

  • this song has a very deep meaning

    it blows most there other songs out of the water

  • to me this song brings happyness 2 the world.
