Coldplay - Chinese Sleep Chant [Studio Version]

[aizisgood]

remind me of my ex girldfriend. we used to listen to this song together in my car and we loved it :'(

[OnceUponAUsername]

I like how the lyrics are hidden in the background. :)

[AsmodelSoljah]

I think of a bunch of students being blown away by Secret Shine and trying to find their feet as a shoegaze band on their first EP, which is probably what Coldplay started out as (I don't pay much attention to them as I find the majority of their music extremely underwhelming). If they were to do more music like this I would like them, nevermind the stigma being a Coldplay fan gives you.

[robhartjr1993]

Is it bad that this song makes me think of '1979' by smashing pumpkins?

[crocodilewerewolf]

Naturally, this is the only way Coldplay know how to be good. By copying someone else :)

[chickenmaster66]

@crocodilewerewolf there commercial successes violent hill lost and viva la vida have no musical influence then them selves plus its nearly impossible to not be influenced by music around you now a days theres shit loads of songs that have similar guitar rifts or bass lines and even vocals

[pikeflyfisherman]

@crocodilewerewolf Everyone copies, Coldplay's music has also been plagerised. Listen to Kelly Rowlands "When Love Takes Over" and you will hear the piano riff from "Clocks".

[FourPartPlan]

@crocodilewerewolf I'd like to know what's Coldplay copying with this track, since I really like this and I would like to hear something similar.

[Cactuaar]

@FourPartPlan

listen to My Bloody Valentine

[DeViiLz103]

Me too :D I knew I wasn't the only one :)

[CoN0R115]

@crappyblackberries I do the exact same. I always skip to the 3:56 mark : L

[YisusxD]

@CoN0R115 me too =D

[Sportsguyy18]

If this song was a potatoe...I would worship this potatoe and all of it's offspring for generations

[Anitamomitainator]

This song makes me want to just cry, but not with sadness, with joy. I remember my childhood, my original parents together before their divorce, it's overwhelming. Coldplay does many things for me, but this feeling is so rare, especially because I get it from a song.

[NS222]

Coldplay made a good shoegaze song with this O.o

[MsChrissybeast]

...and i expected this to be a slow soothing sleepy song lol

[SnoWkidDude]

they say if u wake up to this song, jesus will be staring right into ur face.....to give u the best morning of your life

[Fergo1993]

@sockpuppetmartinez its actually sleep mystifies, not crucifies

[jetso200]

i know thats right. British inspiration is the prime example of good music. Coldplay on the other hand are to good in their sense of beauty.

[TrappedInTheMind]

Whenever I hear this song I feel like I can throw myself from the highest building and this song will catch me and drift me through the air in blissful sleep *sighs

[Cactuaar]

This reminds me My Bloody Valentine

[bobisyour]

Good night world :)))

[TheNatedogg56]

It's official: Coldplay would be like 10x better as a shoegazer band.

[axcertypo]

Coming from an insomniac, I don't know what to make of this song. :P

[flyinfinch]

like a lullaby.....*sigh*

[KKOPPI]

this was the time they made artistic music now it is all overproduced bullcrap

[catchjim666]

This song, can't describe it in words. So fucking amazing!!!!

[LuxVi7]

I love falling asleep to this song it's so relaxing and beautiful =)

[Beeeeeeenn]

Can't get this out of my head!! such a good song!!!



[MrColdheadRadioplay]

Thums up if think COLDPLAY has the best music of all time ;)

[aquarterjew]

im high as hell

[SnoWkidDude]

@_@  i listen on to only death fucking metal. but i love this song. cant stop smiling when i hear it

[Jacko032k]

and the hidden track bizness is extremely annoying on VLV, all the songs should be in separate tracks, maybe with a "+" denoting their presence on the album cover, like 'Til Kingdom Come on X&Y

[Jacko032k]

Coldplay really should have made a 10 minute non-stop looping version of this song, would have been absolutely epic

[Kartoffeljungen]

If this track would last longer it would get me high on a certain moment... And it would not take long I guess... Incredible:P

[Nikolakis90]

this amazing track of my favourite band,reminds me the band M83...do you know them????

[Nikolakis90]

@Nikolakis90 and especially the track "don't save us from the flames"

[coldplay4ful]

very good i love this song

[MrDisturbinglyRandom]

this should have been a separate track so that i could put it on repeat on my iPod :/

[Harvey142009]

i love the electric guitar part from 1:53-2:21 its freakin awesome

[CoN0R115]

Fall asleep, Fall asleep Sleep satisfies, Sleep satisfies. Fall asleep, Fall asleep, Sleep satisfies, Sleep satisfies. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep satisfies, Sleep satisfies. Fall asleep, Fall asleep. Sleep mystifies, Sleep mystifies. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep satisfies, Sleep satisfies. Sleep

[Harvey142009]

i love the part from 1:53

[5964ibra]

it just suddenly clicked in my mind that I wanted to listen to it (out of all coldplay's songs) ... I had to stop the movie I was watching just to satisfy my arrogance, and I ended up asleep and satisfied :)

[zeeeman42]

@5964ibra that is exactly what happened to me, wow this is somewhat freaky

[Beetv27]

I really wanna know what they are saying, I thought the chorus was saying silver

[86fashionlover]

its hypnotising. I love it! cnt wait to see them in october here in Johanesburg!

[SuperUltraMusica]

HERMOSA CANCION ME ENCANTA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Yoriskumo]

<3

[joakcbasse]

my bLOLody valentine

[EnglishCanary]

Good or bad, or, for better or worse, if we're all being honest with each other here, 'Charlie Brown' is quite clearly a remastered version of this.

[Verithiell]

@EnglishCanary what?

[acceptthevoid]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm this is the goddamn shoegazin'est shit evahhh

[uropenbook]

when I found this and "the escapist" I felt like God

[LyndzyLentil]

@uropenbook Don't take Chris' name in vain ;)

[uropenbook]

@LyndzyLentil I see what you did there ;)

[Luby512]

@LyndzyLentil Nice. I didnt know my name was important. My name is also Chris Mrtin.

[AmbroseCadwell]

I don't mind when it ends... because that's when VIVA LA VIDA begins!

[KKOPPI]

one of coldplay's best works

[superxtremeisrael]

anyone else shocked because it was so familiar and than discovered that it was hidden track on "yes"? :D

[Glibardenius]

For an strange reason, I started feeling the same when I heard "Treefingers" (Radiohead) for the first time

[SwitchandtheSpur3]

Anybody else hear My Bloody Valentine in this? I'd love to hear more songs like this from Coldplay in the future.

[ThomComputer]

@SwitchandtheSpur3 yea the vocals even sound like bilinda butcher!

[TriadTitans50]

haha im on my bros account but have to leave a message, Coldplay is the band i want played at my funeral!! love their stuff and love the culture emerging from their music!!! Long live the U.K and its music!!

[HapOntbijtkoek]

The volume was too hard. When it started It felt like a shock from my feet to my head!

[Emanick1]

What the heck, this definitely will not help me sleep

[Doomsday2060]

This song really interests me...

It was written while they were under hypnosis.

Doesn't sound like anything else I have ever heard.

[Linqoon]

@Doomsday2060 Is that true? I don't think any band would write a song while being hypnotised. :o)

[EnglishCanary]

@Doomsday2060 Now listen to 'Charlie Brown'

[kesabaiu]

Sleep, sleep, sleep.

[Pureinlife]

I love Coldplay's hidden tracks. COLDPLAY FOREVAH!!

[decoyoctopusra]

For some reason I visualize being at a roller rink on Saturday night, with all my friends having the time of our lives. Amazing song. :D

[11kopitar]

coldplay.

[evergladejoyride]

If only I didn't have to fast-forward to get it playing!

[evergladejoyride]

I see God walking in my garden? Hahaha! God is most definitely NOT with coldplay

[JayBeKooLah]

Reverance with The Lord! :D Friends The Holy Spirit is shining through Coldplay that is what your hearing :) Joy in The Holy Ghost, That is why coldplay is always Speaking of God or Speaking to him like a Prayer in mostly all their songs. The Holy Ghost will shine through Any of You who has reverance For The Lord, your God. Coldplay is singing with a Genuine Heart, to have Peace and Life, You must have reverance with The Lord he is the Light with No Darkness. The Lord is peace friends :) study

[xxFrozenintime]

@JayBeKooLah no thanks bro i'm fine being an athiest.

[const665]

@JayBeKooLah yeh coldplay always speaks of god

"I'm always trying to work out what 'He' or 'She' is. I don't know if it's Allah or Jesus or Mohammed or Zeus. But I'd go for Zeus"[33] - Chris Martin (wikipedia)

got me convinced there

[VlogOfTheDayWithGelE]

One of my favorites in the Viva La Vida album! ^_^

[trylobyte07]

I used to go to sleep with this song. You get really tired, dozed off and you get drowned into this music. Really awesome!! Creates random dreams too :-P

[StankCrank]

The best part of the album hands down. Should've been extended and separated from "Yes".

[Pureinlife]

the bad thing with this song is when it ends, a sudden cold silence empty of warmth greets you.

[Dunderhead36]

@Pureinlife that's y u gotta put it on rewind :)

[crystaly3112]

love this <3 sooo relaxing !

[Vhidio]

@0TheNewFascistParty0 what?

[gunsandtanks]

I had to turn off my Ipod and turn turn it back on when This came on after 'Yes'! Turns out it was real!

[rykukatei]

5 People simply don't have souls... :(

[darkwindfish]

this isn't instrumental

[CoN0R115]

I absolutely love the oriental feel Coldplay gave some of their songs in Viva la Vida, there's just something magic about it. Other than that I actually can't put into words how amazing I think they are! No other band makes me feel as much as they do, I don't give a damn how gay I sound now lol, but yeah that's it.

[tylerneihoff1]

Anyone else get really disappointed when this song ends??? So you keep it on loop for 2 hours until your brain over loads from happiness :D

[marius1229]

@tylerneihoff1 I just feel the same :)

[kremez]

@tylerneihoff1 yes :) hahaha

[flyinfinch]

@tylerneihoff1 I just love that Coldplay does that!!!!!! .....it gives you euphoric peace!!!

[mattferbrache13]

@tylerneihoff1 I find myself doing the same thing to Life in Technicolor. But mostly this track.

[omnisphera]

@tylerneihoff1 dude, i kept it on a loop for a full day!!!

[sorryvoid]

This makes a good alarm music

[aizisgood]

d best song i ever heard

[HartuBeatu]

Coldplay are awesome, they just are...

[xXDingzXx]

oh and i'm the 200th like ;D

[xXDingzXx]

5 losers have insomnia.

[aznprideyerro]

This sounds like magic

[DanPhantomFan]

"I can't sleeep, I can't sleep"

[JeffysPlayhouse]

what's strange is that this song woke me up when i was sleeping.

[d3vilscry666]

@JeffysPlayhouse Dude holy fuck same. I woke up at 2 AM with my earphones on and this song was playing and checked to see it because I have never heard it and it said ColdPlay-Yes. I was like O.o wtf I never remember this song sounding like this.

[jakedee010]

@d3vilscry666 You've been wolk by god's song.

[rural182]

@d3vilscry666 hahahaa I heard this song when I was playing a game, I love it in the first time, so I tryed to search it for it when ended! I PASS LIKE 3 DAYS SEARCHING THIS SONG AND DIDNT KNOW WHERE TO FIND IT !

[cenasgay9111]

@JeffysPlayhouse

awesome story dude

[CoN0R115]

@cenasgay9111 hahahahah!

[chelseagrin1992]

@JeffysPlayhouse haha right!!! million times!

[renee7592]

@JeffysPlayhouse The exact same thing happened to me! I was listening to Yes on my way to sleep and I heard this. My brain went wtf and I woke up to this awesomeness haha

[JeffysPlayhouse]

this whole time i thought this was part of YES. Not just a hidden track. Sweet

[TheSweetestSymphony]

i always thought he was saying something like "say yes thats right" and "say yes im right"

[11joshman]

what a huge my bloody valentine rip off

[Jeffrey4004]

@11joshman Can there not be a video where someone like you pops and say "Thats been done." Just leave your thoughts to yourself and enjoy the song.

[11joshman]

@Jeffrey4004 i cant the internet had freedom of speech otherwise there wouldn't be comment section semi moron

[Jeffrey4004]

@11joshman True true. How does this cut off my bloody valentine anyway?

[11joshman]

@Jeffrey4004 because my bloody valentine use feedback and reverb to make the guitars sound dreamy just like this and the voices sound echoey and shallow just like this

the guitarist from coldplay even admitted hes a fan of MBV

[Jeffrey4004]

@11joshman Meh you never know dude. Plus it still sounds bad ass.

[11joshman]

@Jeffrey4004 it does but they still riped off MBV

search come in alone by my bloody valentine on YT

great song by them

[Jeffrey4004]

@11joshman Alright I will. I'm on a bad os so I'll do it later.

[LaPerssonandro]

@11joshman Can you tell me what songs of MBV they ripped off? I've been trying to find them... Can anyone help me out?

And I think Chris said it was a tribute to them or something.

[11joshman]

@LaPerssonandro Well it's more like influence not rip off lol.

[Dunderhead36]

6 ppl didn't get their chinese sleep chant

[Frostlikewindsong]

Does anyone know the actual legit REAL lyrics to this song?

[C01dplayisGr8t]

@Frostlikewindsong I'm pretty sure I do. Go on my channel and play Yes/Chinese Sleep Chant Lyrics

[rtenewsonone]

How in HELL did I miss this? #like #favorite

[Daphne085]

♫Sleep...sleep... sleep satisfies... ooooooooohoooooh... ♫ I just can't get enough of this wondrous piece of music... Long live Coldplay... ♥

[shorty20bellota]

do you guys know if in the song yes,,, the first seconds of the song,,, are from a nother song?

[Sydnayyomg]

"sleep satisfied...."

[dennyjo1992]

POST ROCK?

[MTVrocks]

@dennyjo1992 It's sounds very much like it. then again i consider a good majority of the songs on viva la vida to be shoegaze or have shoegaze influence. especially the reverberated guitars on Lovers in japan and cemeteries of london.

[shorty20bellota]

is the all song at the end of the cd?

[1MizzLautner]

love it

[smartieslova12]

I love this song !! it's so mystical and light and calming to me. I love the band, many thanks to Coldplay for this song. !!!

[AragornIsStrider]

Probably my fav track on the album. It sounds so weightless and mystical...Like looking out the window in a moving vehicle, watching the sunlight flicker through the trees on a bright day.

[CaptainPriceLives]

I always skip most of Yes for the end of that and this song.

[johnbrown53160]

viva coldplay

[handyguy007]

it's not instrumental, it apparently has lyrics that say like: "sleep, sleep" over and over again, but with some adverbs sometimes.

[MagnusRulerHardt]

Oh sleep

I need

Sleep satisfies

Sleep satisfies

Fall asleep

Fall sleep

Sleep mystifies

Sleep mystifies

I'm gonna go sleep now. It's 5 AM.

[changalangible]

i can hardly hear the singers

[thebasketballfreak22]

I LOVE COLDPLAY <3

[musicislove25]

i always skip through "yes" to hear this :D i love you coldplay

[dshmuliq]

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!

[narwales]

my love for coldplay has somewhat declined over the years of hearing songs being played over and over again. however, The Scientist, See You Soon, and this track will always be the two Coldplay tracks I can never get enough of, because they're just so perfect.

[Sleepgarden]

Fall asleep, over me, sleep satisfied, sleep satisfied

Sleep, sleep

Fall asleep, over me, sleep crucified, sleep crucified

, that's how I always sang it

[MagnusRulerHardt]

@Sleepgarden

Well, it's wrong.

[Sleepgarden]

@MagnusRulerHardt you're arguing about lyrics we can barely hear and can be anything and yet yours are "right"? please

[MagnusRulerHardt]

@Sleepgarden

Unlike you I can hear that you were way off. I am not arguing. I am just knowing and telling you. You believe whatever you want.

[erickgm15]

@MagnusRulerHardt yea its pretty clear he says ,"sleep, sleep satisfies, fell asleep.." i couldnt get what he says at 1:35 mystifies sounds close to it.

[MagnusRulerHardt]

@erickgm15

He probably says ", satisfy" or "satisfied". I hear no S here or in live versions.

[PaoloFR1]

@erickgm15 yeah he says: sleep satisfies and then sleep mystifies...

[Sleepgarden]

@PaoloFR1 it's crucify, I hear a U sound in there

[sassyandy]

love love love

have u guys noticed how its the songs that only last like 30 seconds that seem to be the most amazing?

theres parachutes, post cards from far away, the escapist and this one! they're sooo amazing i wish they never ended!!!!!

love coldplay i swear they're like a religion or magic or idk! something amazing!!!! :D

[oscar199106]

@sassyandy tambien life is for living y reign of love!!!

[MuffinCharger]

Would have been one of their greatest songs if they just released it as a single...

[Jacko032k]

@MuffinCharger well Lost and Lovers in Japan both bombed so I can't see much hope for this as a single

[VivaTour09]

Reminds me of summer, that's when I attended an awesome Coldplay concert. Great tune. ;D

[nerdburger10]

coldplay knows how to make my day ;-)

[chelymzt]

that´s good

[couldcarexless]

ooooo thats why "yes" is so long

[Aggback07]

I really love this song. Funny, I've never heard what Chris is actually singing until a few weeks ago, since it's really been like a Sleep Chant to me, always listen to it right before I go to sleep.

[crashday1993]

I agree, this is the best song in this album.

[riku1neo]

I bought this cd with the hopes of listening to Viva La Vida all day, but Lovers in Japan and Chinese Sleep Chant kinda become my favs.

[spiesshiv]

The best song of the album! coldplay can play shoegaze!!!

[WohnerontheRadio]

Sleep satisfied. They slayed this song. Buckland doesn't get enough credit as a guitarist.

[Marphis]

Smells like My Bloody Valentine (listen to 'Soon'), but still it's nice. They should make songs as this more often.
