@Gun4Punishment Have you ever seen their recent concerts? You should watch their concert in tokyo in 2009, pretty much every song they do is better then the original.
@Morphjin47 completely, live performances just add another dimension and a completely different energy to the songs that just can't be accessed in recordings
@SuperFitzyBoi I saw many videos of Chris singing far worse than he does here ;) Actually he's not such a great live singer, but this performance is rather good! White Shadows is one of my favourite songs! X&Y 4 life!!
what is that chris martin says write before the guitar riff begins? o.o it sounds like german idk. is it like a countdown? o.o anyways LOVE COLDPLAY WOOOOT
@gravelandgrain100 DUDE They dont need to present fancy shows or exaggerated performances, their music speaks louder then any of those things. They use light and sound to create an atmosphere, all the rest is just a way to make the concert look "fancy" and thats for those who don't really know how to make good music. People need to focus on their music and not on the performance so much, its getting all crappy music and amazing shows nowdays..pftt
I thought to myself when i first heard coldplay that this band was something else, was something special, where it put you in a different place..that it would be hard to rise up from what, to me was already just plain amazingness....but they do over and over and over, Coldplay Forever!
@Patricoldplayer i agree johnny is amazing! and i am so inlove with his and chris's relationship <3 you can tell that they all really love each other and AHHH its so nice, they are THE most amazing band in the world
Oh my god ... you fail, i think some of the viewer dont knew it - and also which language it is - so keep your bad mood for yourself , and dont write such arrogant comments ... Can u speak german? And no it is 2 3 4 ... not 1 2 3 4 - now who's the idiot?
@tgeer123 Err no, i'm really not. I did make a mistake with my original comment though, I should have wrote "Best band ever and forever". Why, who have you got in mind?
have to disagree. Coldplay is a good band-but everything after "X and Y" is far from even being decent. I don't like a band that claims to have made the greatest record ever before ever hearing it. That's what they said about "Viva La Vida"-Pet Shop Boys-"Behaviour" and The Smiths "The Queen is Dead" are a million miles better than Coldplay. I mean get a grip please!
I usually dont say these things about musicians i respect...at least i avoid to...but Chris Martin is pretty hot here. Also, another good performance..yet again
i think too, but i find this a little bit strange because in viva la vida all the band is playing an instrument and on this, chris is just singing. i will ask to the oracle on their official site
There's a guy playing a Moog Voyager (on the right at 4:21), but this can't be the chords as... the Voyager is a monophonic synthesiser (it can only play one note at any one time, not a three-fingered chord).
Sounds like backing, or someone off-stage using another keyboard. I can pick out two or three synth sounds being played at the same time. They're layered.
oh yeah your right!! i didn't see him , may be phil harvey ( i don't know what he looks like). i think he plays a polyphnoc synth too, i don't think it's playback because they often change the rythm
The synthesiser itself is monophonic only, not polyphonic. It might be able to send out polyphonic MIDI to other sound modules, but I imagine the Voyager's sound would be more difficult to control in this context (which single note of the polyphonic chord would it play, etc).

no cave duda que a lo largo este es el mejor disco de coldplay
MUY BUEN DISCO nunca me canso de escuchar mas que nada estas canciones suenan a un ROCK PSICODELICO suenan a U2 y ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN
con VIVA LA VIDA se calleron espero que para su proximo album 2011
saquen un disco tal como este pero mas rockero sonido ACHTUNG BABY de U2
