The Scientist - Coldplay

[Deemer2012]

My best friend sang this song in a Mr. BLue Devil Pageant ( a pageant with all the guuys in my high school where we just joke around) and he sang this so amazing.. .He was playing the piano and he just ripped it...

It really shows how someone doesn't have to be a jock or a member of the science club (he does both lol) to show that people can come together..;. great song

[ogkrilla]

this song is so sedating.

[XTheAverageGamer]

[Lar24man]

that was a cool video

[ryanrocks987]

this band is bomb best band

[Vetunanni21]

8 & 1/2 Million Views. Tell me Coldplay hasn't made an everlasting relative impression on anyone. Tell me!

[battleship188]

@Renzeko That's the spirit ;)

[gyPSYskies]

@battleship188 TRUTH BE TOLD!!hahah that made my day!

[AMjam03]

i love this song !!!

[AaronF526]

I did a cover of The Scientist on guitar. Check it out.

[iPACOPAC]

If I see one more fucken POPTART commercial I'm going to loose it :/

[McKenzieSeaux]

this video is so freaking amazing but sad

[TheEmerald92]

fuck this stupid ass addddddd

but i do like Nature Valley Bar :)

[tonebeatz24]

Coldplay fuckin ROCKS!! Not a bad song at all. Coldplay has always made good music. I see England has great bands like coldplay, U2 and James Blunt. I see the cars there are so different than the cars over here in the States. Watching this video he was driving on the passenger seat. They also drive on the left side of the road there in England.

[matthardy1love]

u know ur mentioning JB right now.

[Renzeko]

@matthardy1love So are you so shuutttuppppp >.<

[vinneh89]

@battleship188 I don't do any of these things... Nor am I what you explained me to be. This comment itself just reminds me of everything you said youtubers shouldn't do, irony.

[okmate123]

how does that guy ride the bike backwards so good?

[Charliemot0]

Coldplay Sold Out

[cowardlygoomba]

@Charliemot0 How?

[samchocolate1]

th video is weird but i love it weird is sometimes good, videos these days are always about people partying out clubbing and just cheap this is class compared to the likes of alexandra burke, n dubz, even cheryl cole

[TheMibs56]

i love this song but i dont get the music video even if the effects are cool

[Scotiadeary]

@TheMibs56 Going back to the start...

[PrivateCliqueSeries]

@TheMibs56 hes going back to the start dumbass. xD

[dj09ish]

this music vid is so weird. he crashes the car, goes into the forest, throws his coat away, walks through railway tracks and shit and falls onto a matress

[jaysonsucks3]

shes superman! lol

[jaysonsucks3]

ohhhhh! his eyes! :0

[MercyMe93]

I love this song

[mrpeterbuckley]

Man the girl is a dog why would he bother going back to the start

[latinosalvaje1]

@mrpeterbuckley cant be more agree

[Irishpuma94]

how was he able to lipsing it if it was all going backwards? really cool vid :D

[IrishHops]

@Irishpuma94 i saw a clip of him explaining how they did the video. he said he spent the flight coming back to England from somewhere rehearsing the song backwards. if you ever try just saying all the parts of a sentence backwards you see how impressive what he's doing is

[skrtel37]

@Irishpuma94 he had to learn the song backwards

[chleancho]

jajaja si se dan cuenta cuando empieza el video el wey q canta parece q tiene algo en el diente de enmedio jajajaja XD pero chida muusika me encanta me llego I likeed!

[JBarronTovar]

(: Like :(

[inthezone42]

and thats why your wear your seatbelt

[drayday05]

wtf does this song have to do with israel

[WeHateSandCastles]

A lot of people say Sum 41 ripped this off on there song

"pieces" but i dont see it. they are very different.

[BrunoMars333]

He has horrible teeth im sorry :(

[lizzielollipop816]

@BrunoMars333 I agree lol

[Ramin2907]

@BrunoMars333 He's english!! what do you expect? all there hygene is terrible!

[SergeantDavis24]

@BrunoMars333 Hey, americans dont have that great of teeth (if that makes sense). That includes me, they r screwd up... lol... no1s perfect

[birdmankickedmyass]

@SergeantDavis24 definitely, my teeth are pretty screwed up. I'm actually envious of Martin's teeth. so there's a gap, big deal, i would trade my pearlies for his.

[Sowetorottenspine]

video begs pharcyde tut tut

[88tim00]

Evil Activities ft. Coldplay - nobody said it was easy. Thats the better version

[chimptitty]

advertisements piss me off

[EnglshRoc]

This song is based on the a true story of a girlfriend Chris got in a CAR ACCIDENT WITH LIKE 12 YEARS AGO

[birdmankickedmyass]

@EnglshRoc send me the link citing that

[zeldaxlover24]

this makes me think.

now i gotz it stuck in my head!

XD

[treefingers1206]

He said "it's only science apart" and "numbers and figures" and "science and progress." This is so intellectual and deep.

[arsenal2113112]

what the hell does this song have to do with israel wanting peace...?

[yanamon]

if you listen to it such good lyrics.... reminds me of a special someone

[user831able]

@PersianPaladin - like I said before, take your stupid political standings somewhere else. If you need a suggestion as to where to put them, you can shove them up your ass. And get your facts together before you say anything - Israel is no longer in Gaza... idiot.

[CaptainAhab100]

so according to the music video in which all is backwards, this song is actually sung the other way around, with the "end" becoming the "beginning"

[jaffacakes95]

This is just too good for words.

[tttkkk13]

what a awesome and inspirating song

greetz from the Netherlands

[RioDuran1]

i love this song a lot

[RioDuran1]

i love this song alot

[blandsdalepk]

514 people tried to put the volume up but then clicked on the dislike button by accident :( i feel sorry for those poor people :$

[HobbieStuartMusic]

greaatt tunee... love it

[cementcreek]

Great song!!!!!!!!

[Kathelynn11]

FREAKIN AMAZING SONG

[FinalConflict99]

one of the hardest times in my life then this song came and cheered up my life :)

[ShelterDogs]

@FinalConflict99 I wonder if The Scientist is the best pop song of the 2000s. Compositionally speaking, it has to be. You can argue all you want that it's a matter of opinion, but if you know great songwriting you'll know this is a great song.

[hi5you987]

i wonder why they put the thumbs down sign for this song,like why even put the button there?some of these songs are ones of who are dead. its an awesome song, some people dont know how to sing if they put it as thumbs down

[sarcasticbyfar]

my fave song of coldplay

[WhoozingChocobo]

This Song is pure magic

[user831able]

@PersianPaladin - why did you put Israel in quotations? Is it really necessary to try and spur a political discussion on a peaceful coldplay song? Please, take your stupid political standings somewhere else. No one wants to hear them.

[daliacp4]

without words!!!!

i love COLDPLAY since 10 years ago!!! :)

their concert was so fantastic!!!!

[karltheodorsen]

this song is so beautiful.

[MrNiki34]

Sad song..... Such beautiful

[Dededetracker]

Love the song because I do apretiate the lyrics.  I may gbe a french speeking lady

[WhiteInfernoFlames]

The U2 of our time :)

[warrenfrank]

@WhiteInfernoFlames

hahahahahahahahahaha Fuck U2

[KangoTV]

@WhiteInfernoFlames In case there's any confusion, U2 are the U2 of our time. I like and respect Coldplay, they've made great music... but they never will be U2.

[VanessaSabrina12]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus @ironyisabitch1

People here in America pronounce progress both ways , its not just people from england that say it like that. It can be said both ways..

[imblue52]

Coldplay has the coolest videos,

They amaze and inspire me every time!

[VanHalenlvr2012]

First song i learned on piano!

[okmate123]

Nobody likes the Ads

[GreenDayLover212111]

wth every vid i watch there is some comment anout bebier and its also annoying cuz theres a girl at school who calims to b his cousin so this is friken getting annoying!!! plez stop!

[mikehyatt69]

[henriquepimentagomes]

ps.: I'm not like a tracker (because I've just sent you another e-mail) I just wanted to make sure that you would read it I sent this other comment.

Just to make sure that you've got my e-mail: henriquepimentagomes@gmail.com

[battleship188]

1:38 I love it when the bass comes in :D

[AnaMary14]

i love the music but i hate de video

I LOVE THE LYRICS

[EllieMayox]

@ironyisabitch1 your name applies to that commet.

*facepalm*

[TheAzraynazin]

I have no idea how this song reminds me of home. I would love to walk in reverse with Chris

[TheOfficiallyRandom]

@evanlongoria96 dude, chill. youtube has to be funded somehow.

[evanlongoria96]

fucking stuipd ass ads! they r really starting to piss me of!!!

[Julian7330]

is very beautiful

[Mrgreenelephantman]

I love walking around backwards down the street like this.

[ladymelmew]

good lord, that video ga ve me the chills...

[alybabba1]

3:06 my favorite car in this world! :D

[alybabba1]

wait so this means he had to learn the song backwards so it could go with the video?? 0.0 lol yeaaars and years after i jus realized this... :P i love this video :D

[Alucard999999999]

comment allez-vous maintenant Mei lin?

[kitkat111ooo]

one of the most beautiful songs ever <3

[cuteprincess478]

this is a really nice song tbh, who cares about the video? :/

[jwendeborn]

not really... @0MissElizabeth0

[0MissElizabeth0]

FAIL ! at 3:05 he's getting into the vehicle that supposedly already crashed and the windshield IS broken but the roof is still in perfect condition and then they show the car falling down the hill and the roof gets smashed in . So falling down the hill UN-smashed the roof ? a destroyed BMW is still destroyed, I don't know why they didn't just let the car fall down the hill, film that, THEN film him getting into it and waking up. Breaks continuity of the video the way they did it.

[albo181]

@0MissElizabeth0 Somebody has too much free time! :p

[0MissElizabeth0]

@albo181 or I just PAY ATTENTION :-P

[bbyc4k3ssss]

@0MissElizabeth0 You're right but it'd probably be unsafe for him to get back into a car that has been rolled down a hill.

[jwul28]

@0MissElizabeth0 who's giving a shit

[0MissElizabeth0]

@jwul28 if you're listening to the song on the radio or on CD / iPod it makes no difference. When you're watching the Visual Representation of the song and you're not a fucking MORON , it makes a difference. It's Wrong.

[jwul28]

@0MissElizabeth0

If i was you, i would seriously look back at the comment you just wrote, and ask myself again who realy is the MORON... And don't aswer back, i realy don't care who you finaly figured out it was.

[0MissElizabeth0]

@jwul28 FUCK OFF. I still like this band, I never said anything bad about the music. The DIRECTOR of this video sucks and so do you for arguing about this over and over when I already made my point WEEKS AGO.

[jwul28]

@0MissElizabeth0 why do you get so mad everytime? in your period?

[CandlesnKisses]

@jwul28 its not that hard to understand, if all of this were truly happening backwards then the car would have been dented while he was sitting there because it is supposed to have rolled down a hill. They just assume people wouldn't notice it and someone did.

[0MissElizabeth0]

my favorite thing about this song is the way he pronounces 'progress'. He says it "Pro - gress" :)

[Mr60ftlesbianoctopus]

@0MissElizabeth0

I'm guessing you're american?

[0MissElizabeth0]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus seriously, shut up. I have liked Coldplay ever since 2001, I am not dissing their music in anyway, I am just saying there is a flaw in this video.

[0MissElizabeth0]

@0MissElizabeth0 oh ! I thought you were talking about the Post I made right after that, where I say that they fucked up on the Car crash scene . . I LIKE that he says Progress that way - and yes I'm aware its an English accent :-)

[ironyisabitch1]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus what the fuck is wrong wiht americians lol some of us may b dumb red necks but not all geez! and since ur comment was in english im guessing ur an americian too although i could b worng

[Mr60ftlesbianoctopus]

@ironyisabitch1

I'm guessing you have no idea that people from England are 'English'?

And No, I am English. Nothing is wrong with me, just pisses me off that people call the genesis of our language a flaw, By genesis, I mean that the English Language comes from England and someone thinks that the way progress in England is said is wrong which clearly isn't.

[MrConorlee]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus Haha! "Ironyisabitch1" must be a proper ignorant spastic.

[Mr60ftlesbianoctopus]

@MrConorlee

Haha, I think so too.

[bgdddyweave77]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus Lol, take a deep breath- it will be ok... ;-D

[0MissElizabeth0]

@Mr60ftlesbianoctopus you misunderstood my comment , I was talking about the Flaw in the video - how the car is in perfect condition when Chris Martin sits in it but the video is supposed to be playing backwards and it shows that the car has rolled down a hill and the roof gets smashed (Then the roof should've been smashed when Chris got into it). The language is not a flaw, the language is ~Beautiful~.

[LuthyMuthy]

let's just go back to the start <3

[taylormeow]

And that kids is why you should always wear a seatbelt.

[737butterfly]

My son introduced me to Coldplay about 7 years ago.  So much has happened since then including the sudden death of my beloved husband a year ago. Now these songs resonate with me more than ever before. Thanks, MPHP, for your fine musical taste and for broadening your old mom's musical horizons. Keep creating!!!

[TheIllusionguy]

Coldplay songs always give me a strange sensation , and i start to reflect into everything i have done or am about to do... No other bands or songs but only coldplay's, dont know if u guys feel the same too..... But the feeling is amazing, tell u.

[hotqueekboi]

This is the song that made me really start liking Coldplay :)

[barbwire616]

...her name is chloe. i cried today on my 17th birthday when i didn't see her, i love her, and she doesn't know it. i wish a could tell her how i feel and how lovely she is, the hurt is incredible. on the night of my birthday i wished, i wished hard, that i would see her the following day and tell her the truth, Quote every verse from this beautiful song, explain to her "i had to find you, tell you i need you"....

[Bartenderandthethief]

@barbwire616 gay

[loucatuu]

511 should die in a car accident!lol jk don't do it

[xosarahhS]

[kichukdave]

@FallenRaziel0 ooor justin beiber hired his bodyguards to make various accounts to dislike!

[FallenRaziel0]

[semper4213]

@FallenRaziel0 519**

[801forlife]

[bmxisdope]

i honestly wonder if people even watch the video or just waste all your time on looking at the comments on justin bieber? just listen to the music!

[rushpython100]

gorgoroth... that is all.

[ulquiorraaurora96]

ok im gonna tell the truth I HATE ALL THOSE STUPID JUSTIN BEBBER STUFF AND RAP I LIKE COLDPLAY IM SORRY.Its ok if all other ppl like it but thats not me!!!!! so yah thats what i have to sey sorry i hate them

[Lisenertheband]

Please! Take a look at our original song "I'm so young"! We'll be grateful, we need your opinion of it. It's our first demo. Again, thank you a lot.

[RedRoost80]

Peace from Israel.

[VanHalenlvr2012]

@maayannghhi peace from Nevada.

[ofek3]

@PersianPaladin yeh peace from israel... not "israel"? Because music can lift up the souls of anyone even if the physical body is going through war

what about we just all live in peace

peace from...... wait for it....... Israel

[maayannghhi]

@ofek3

I could not explain it better(:

[michalnhfk]

@PersianPaladin

Why is that so funny?

I am also from Israel and I am so proud of it.

I do not know what you know about Israel but we also like everyone else, want peace

[PersianPaladin]

@michalnhfk

Stop murdering people in Gaza then.

[ofek3]

[irishboy664]

i wonder how they filmed this

[ksufrn]

@irishboy664 I can tell you he learnt the song backwards so it looked almost right when they played it in reverse.

[ThatAdelaideGuy]

Imagine - John Lennon.. They stole this

[Sman9614]

@ThatAdelaideGuy That ignorant statement is not worth a reply.......
