This is the deepest song I've ever heard. "The entire Earth is fighting, all the world is at its end" It saddens me how the world is filled with violence, war and poverty. The line about how we are all mortals and at any time this could all go, it's so true it is terrifying. We should hold on to the memories and remember all the good times we've had with the people we loved beacuse one day, they will no longer be around and with the worlds self-destruction neither will our beloved places be.
I play this song a lot while I'm lying in bed and vibing, and I always drift off into the most wonderfully tripped dream, until the alarm noise at the end wakes me up :(
This makes me think i grew up country.. When really i grew up in the city. Its like "i remember painting strawberry swings!" but after im like "who the funk paints strawberries on a swing???"
Im a huge Coldplay fan and imho Strawberry Swing is like their second best song (Everything's not Lost always wins). Given that, I have to give this guy some props. He perfectly recreated the feeling of the original song with very fitting lyrics. " I've loved the good times here, I've loved our good times here " pretty much sums it up.
To be honest. I love Coldplay a lot. I think Coldplay is singing better as this fella. But thats because they are famous. But this man is a close second.
i thought i liked this version better, but after goin back and listenin to coldplays version, i honestly don't know which one to choose. both phenomenal artist, and both are incredibly underrated in my opinion.
why is Frank singing this as if the world were about to end soon?
"Spaceships are lifting off of a dying world, And millions are left behind while the sky burns. There wasn't room for you and I, only you, goodbye, goodbye" that's a scary image
all yall, if yall like this, yall need to listen to coldplay. they made the original version of this song, and i love franks voice ( otherwise i wouldnt be here ), but coldplay is amazing.
@camry01 honestly me too. thats just because i didnt like this song in the first place, and frank killed it. especailly with the mental pic he created with the alarm clock at the end. but i was just trying to introduce people to the world of coldplay, because i think there absolutely incredible.
Spaceships are lifting off, of a dying world, millions are left behind, while the sky burns, there wasn't room for you and I, only you....goodbye..... (by far the best lyrics from young and new generation singer/artist)
Lyrically it's no where near the same level of Coldplay's original, Chris Martin is a great lyricist so I think it's a bad move to change such powerful lyrics to something so common and simple: nothing on the original. I do like Frank Ocean, but I'm not a fan of this.
I love coldplay i think they are amazing but u all can't hate on Frank Ocean's version it's really good. A friend refered me to this version thinking it's his own song. pointing being covering songs opens songs to other people who would otherwise not have not listened to it. 10 years from now for our kids to listen to coldplay songs Souljia Boy will have to cover them....lol (maybe thus a bit far but u get the where i'm going with this.
@candyyycanesz one thing is sampling a melody from a song, this is different. This is just the instrumental version of the original (I already said that on my comment) with different lyrics, like a bad karaoke version. I wouldn't mind it if it was a sample of Strawberry Swing with new instrumentation, instead of taking the original and add lyrics that weren't written for this music. That said, I couldn't care less about this guy, I just think that this could be more creative.
@nxgate a lot of artists remix songs by taking the instrumentals and doing whatever with it, they just simply take the beat. You make no sense, you're saying you wouldn't mind if he sampled Strawberry Swing but with different instrumentals, how would that work? just get over it
@bigsoso20 hey, no offence but leave the guy alone. He clearly stated that he is going through a lot of stuff at home and life can be rough and i feel you. @girlmakemefood , i am going through stuff right now as well and it sucks but there is nothing better than laying down in your bed while listening to some great music. I hope things get better for you bro <3
