Viva La Vida (Lyrics)

[ArticunoRules123123]

@ragerten I really don't want to hear the 'younger generation' being judged by a dubious individual who cannot scrape together an adequate grammatically correct sentence (or correctly use the word affectionate). Peace :)

[CellGames2006]

best part 1:50 -_-

[777MrFurry]

This is my favorite song by Coldplay:D

Paradise comes in second

[dinosaurluvpie]

Wow cant we just post to post.. when did it mater what people said what maters is the music.. not a comment.

[corozita2012]

Love this song I'm singing it in my chorus concert !

[RagerTen]

I really do feel the new generation "vibe" within the comments I see. This song is not about being "the king of the world or overlord of the universe" It is relating back to the French Revolution in which thousands of die-hard peasants fought for their freedom.

I encourage you all to read A Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. You will have a better comprehending of this song and will thoroughly appreciate Coldplay's work more affectionately. Peace.

[KaIanari]

@RagerTen Its mainly about napoleon

[ashmos0126]

i love it



[prettypinkunicorns77]

no need to be mean :(

[SkUllcRusEr173]

@novak147852 I mean long live life

[SkUllcRusEr173]

@novak147852 actually viva la vida stands for long live live

[PsixakiasMovies]

i also used to rule the world...now the world has turned against me :'(

[KatLoverz123]

Is it only me, or does this song remind anyone else of Gadaffi? (That Libyan leader)

[MrAbsol50]

i listen to this song and think th-that im the most popular kid in the world adn everyperson in the world likes me then i go back to a world where i have barley any freinds! i feel like the most unlucky kid in the world wish i was born with goood eyes so i wouldnt be called a nerd with glasses (hate that staoretype) wish i could go a day without being called gay by kids i dont know and my closest freinds, ppl can just be plain mean sometimes i swear im just gonna snap someday and tell them off!!

[GHannelius100]

[willeboem]

[GreedyGreenBean]

Too awesome

[dayargrosario]

it seems to have an influence from "oranges on appletrees" by a-ha..but at least coldplay has always gave them the recognition they deserve as an influence..

[chunkylover817]

[MelanieFloppy]

I FEEL LIKE THE KING OF THE WORLD WHEN I LISTEN TO THIS SRSLY but then i go back to life and wash the dishes.

[chunkylover817]

@MelanieFloppy lol finally a women telling it like it is ^^

[CHRlSHERRERA]

This song is old but for me its still great. it sometimes brings tears to my eyes because we should all live our life how we want. but we get picked on or not listened. I always think about a girl when i listen to this song. her name is ariana. i love her but she does not know that. i dont know how to ask her to prom because im too shy. but, i am going to ask her very soon because you gotta viva la vida.

[implosion2007]

[cardcollector6794]

[Nintengirl218]

I love this song! It's catchy!

[ricky102400]

hello i am from the year 2000 BC and I am currently listening to this with my iStone...

[SandHandProductions]

@ricky102400 why copy top comment??

[Dasia405]

looooooove this song soooo much

[Ilovecaptainjack224]

Long live life!!!

[yoyohoneysinghisking]

@MsEncoreDancer i thought it said roman catholic choirs 2

[yoyohoneysinghisking]

hes talking about the crusaders : once u go there it was never never an honest word = talking about the pope's lies about the crusades being holey

[superhamster65]

so.....plz tell me sumbody wut this song is about :) i would rly appreciate it, P.S. it actually kinda makes me cry!

[ksurfer1995]

@superhamster65 napolions thoughts before he was executed

[cardcollector6794]

@superhamster65 maybe it is about Christ. I say that because there are references like "pillars of salt, pillars of sand", "Missionaries", "Romans", "Jerusalem", etc. Then there is the line "The Old King is dead, long live the King." as if to say that after He was crucified they now had a new king (references to Bible as Christ as king). It then kind of talks about John the Baptist, "Revolutionaries wait, for my head on a silver plate" (he was beheaded). Then references to St. Peter. so ya.

[Ilovecaptainjack224]

@cardcollector6794 Coldplay's lead singer is a christian, so I support your theory.

[rillera25]

@superhamster65 I think it's about Napoleon Bonaparte, and it's him speaking while he was in exile. Though I may be wrong.

[MsEncoreDancer]

I thought it said "Roman Catholic choirs are singin" but I guess I was wrong:P it would be so cool if it did say that because I am roman catholic!!!

[kresh576]

@MsEncoreDancer My persona opinion is that the lyrics are whatever you want them to be... It's there for your enjoyment so change them to something you would enjoy :)



[cardcollector6794]

@MsEncoreDancer they probably were Catholic, HRE, Holy Roman Empire..

[CSMBeastCoevki]

love coldplay

[CSMBeastCoevki]

every1 loves this song no matter what year

[MarkoRudan]

@CSMBeastCoevki agreed

[AW3SOM3GUY7]

i think hes singing to his kingdom or sumtin but this is a great song

[CandyforMEplz]

Is he talking about Jesus/God? Cuz I don't want to listen to it If he is but I love this song can somebody seriously tell me who he's singing about.

[CSMBeastCoevki]

@CandyforMEplz no hes talkin bout how he used to be king then got betrayed, whats the prob if hes talkin about God anyway?

[anotherscenegirl]

@CSMBeastCoevki This song means something different to everyone, but me and my mom both think he is talking about growing old. when he was young he "ruled the world" then he grew older and is realizing that hes no longer the king of his time he has to pass the torch onto the young people "now the old king is dead, long live the king"

[MiharuDubs]

I hate how on youtube they people say,

"Like if you're watching this in 2011!"...

No, i'm clearly watching this in 1500 b.c. on my iStone

[DTGxProductions]

I don't like when they say Mmmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmm mmmm

[IdLoveToBeYours]

thumbs up if you're watching this in 8000 BC...
