Coldplay - 42 (FULL) Live @ Brixton Academy 16-6-8

[aletateta]

My absolute FAVORITE Coldplay song! soooooooooooo good.

[btotherockdock]

I just love coldplay altogether. They are a great band, and need to continue untl either Chris Martin can't hit those high notes anymore or they just become too old to play period. Check out my account for short films by me.

[AlmaEnsa]

1:31-2:28 amazing johnny, nice guitar part, the best of the song, i want to know how this guy do that! :D

[Tangibleapparition]

@AlmaEnsa i know how,i play it on my guitar

[AlmaEnsa]

@Tangibleapparition well, perform a cover...

[Tangibleapparition]

@AlmaEnsa some day

[musirusi]

what did he forget??

[musirusi]

what did he forget??

[crazidan96]

i don't get it. what did he miss? he was like "ooooo.. i missed up the ...." whatT? lol.

[ECgod77]

I think he forgot some lyrics or something.

[coldplayerau]

yes he did those who a dead r not dead they r livin in my head oh no check lyrics

[klaudyw3]

@ECgod77 he did :D

[alegarzone]

why I love Cold????????? I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!

[FunPreach]

i love this song with all my heart. xD

[ziulia]

what about queen, scorpions, metallica ?

[luciferion2000]

magical song !!

but i hate the second part.

sorry

[nelza91]

noo the second part i fink helps create the ambience and atmosphere and illutsrates the paradox between life and death.. but yeh first part is really very magical!

[lBlueFishl]

I love the second part.

[heavenly29]

i love this song because of the second part!

[MillodeSto]

42!!

[morgancammy14]

best group of the new millineum

[madwar1995]

Coldplay is Awsome.

[AngelAnne57]

What does he say? 'I mised the ..... for the second time'

[DLE1982]

"I messed it up again" is what I hear, and the bit after that I can't really understand.

[tommywm24]

"Ohhh fff...I messed it up again for the second time in two days!"

[iowen93]

great song, great band

[xXxcrimsonmoonxXx]

This isnt U2-ish!!!!

If anything its a bit Radiohead-ish...

Its get the slow start, the really atmospheric strings/vocals, then the rockier section.

Like Paranoid Android practically.

Awesome song though.

[SmashingPumpkins122]

whoa that's so weird, i was thinking exactly the same thing. It's got an eerie feel to it, and the middle section completely sounds like Radiohead

[SmashingPumpkins122]

I just got tickets to their concert in July, I'm so excited about it!

[NicolasVladimirov]

wooow,i'm afraid coldplay will never come in bulgaria,but hope dies last,you know

[SmashingPumpkins122]

don't worry, before you know it they might just take a visit there. plus, who knows you could be visiting countries elsewhere and happen to see them :)

[Tomahawk1505]

johnny is so cool

[grefortitomess]

Very Good, Tank you

[gekousi]

No comment..Just listening...Traveling...

[Lennon08]

Viva la vida per siempre razio le vide is belle

[Hallstyle]

Some one said very U2 ish as if that was a bad thing or something! I don't agree that this song is U2 ish. Many of their songs are definitly inspired by U2.

[tommywm24]

I didn't mean it in a bad way...I love both bands. The guitar part after the piano intro reminds me something the Edge would play...something simple and loud. I think since using Brian Eno as producer they keep sounding like them even more, but in their own way.

[scyen]

How did he mess up?

He said he messed up, but I didn't hear anything...

[JackieWild]

beautiful <3

[jumpintoyourmind]

coldplay=love

[tommywm24]

Very U2-ish but still very good!

[Cinemaniac7]

My favorite off Viva La Vida, for sure. I missed seeing them live this past weekend, A because the tickets were sooooo expensive and B because the venue has terrible acoustics :(

[joaovitorsoares]

Essa é a melhor faixa do álbum"

[pwinces0laura]

I love this song, I love him :)

[sector06]

I normally can't stand coldplay, but damn..

[Sondera]

geniaaaalllll

[DouglasRivitti]

Love is the word to explain Coldplay Musics

=D

[sophiebro]

fuucckkkiiinnggg yeaaahhhh

[SpiRiTjuhh]

so cool

[LoveYaSofy]

Love this song!!!

[lilliebugyeahh]

you didnt get to heaven but u made it close, you didnt get to heaven but you OHOHHHHHOHHOHHH

[krentistthedentist]

This song is cool to watch chris perform live

[francesthemute31]

LOVE

LOVE

LOVE

LOVE

LOVE this song

[lovesmulder]

6 more weeks to my show in boston ... i PRAY that they play this !!!! phenomenal.

[MagnumRoyalty]

the guitar solo melody of the "ghost" part sounds a lot like I Should Have Known Better by The Beatles. and like yahikoli, i'm not comparing, im just pointing out an interesting resemblance. i think its very cool :)

ps- i love at the end, how chris fucks up the ending but still manages to make it funny and enjoyable :)

[yahikoli]

I always thought the same! The Beatles are the best

[nahukas]

who cares about it?

[gowowns]

coldplay is insanely good

[colster1992thfc]

Those in my bed,

Gave me head,

She was really hot and red.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhh, yeah!

[pmoneymcw]

i like how the song changes

[bowloficecream422]

best songby coldplay on viva la vida

[750Jord]

this is a very good song 42 i love it

[weteyemoon]

the truth about the afterlife. well, according to mr. martin you go into his head...

[isakaisaka1]

Love this song!

[Mikopile]

My favorite of the album. A classic for me.

[cakesta01]

fav song on album everyone who says it sounds like radiohead fuck off really because CP is fresh and doesn't try to sound like any one but themselves

[yahikoli]

You know, the song does sound a little bit like 2+2=5. Just a little bit.

NO I'm not comparing, and NO I'm not saying wich is better, there's just a tiny little small sligth resemble.

[joeybourke07]

haha yeh. in same key, and similiar chord prog.

[VictorVbox]

I know man, exactly

[ajsherb]

tuuuunee

[CVsnaredevil]

Wow when people say they rip this off from radiohead they're idiots.

[anadryantontine]

Having Eno do the production makes sense of why I heard so much U2 in Reign of Love.

[poqisback]

I LOVE THIS SONG, MOSTLY AFTER 1.22!!!

[joementum5]

i do find most of coldplay's songs unexciting but the second half of this song is one of my favorite songs in the world right now

[KCVROCKS2008]

it amazes me how people get so worked up over music, they take it so personally. everyone is influenced by someone. let's rip on the stones for ripping off chuck berry...rip on aerosmith for ripping off the stones..and on and on....this is a great song i think though!

[ikalaraskartika]

amazing.. totally amazing..

viva coldplay..

[Thenoobs410]

I saw them last week in chicago. IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!

[sun608]

I just simply love it, this weekend I am going to see them pesonally, I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy the concert!!!

[chocoboeater00]

I like my version better, which is- You didn't get to "have him/em" , but you made it close...

oh well, Coldplay's awesome!

[aurora270683]

Thank you Coldplay! Thank you...

[HeleneRT]

What guitar is that... Starcaster? or is it a fender telecaster thinline ?... love the diversity of this song :)

[fonzieman]

why won't they come to portugal :( ?

[taximal]

well we think about it or is the puff just taking over

#

[LukasOrwin]

the song-title is from a book named: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

"Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything"

[geeksquad4ever]

I thought so. I was thinking about it today actually. I think it's kinda funny they used somthing from that book.

[tsuicbd18]

sickk

[DrewEl2]

lol @ the ending

[Cantonavader]

Powerful second half of the song. I saw it on the Daily Show. The way he beats the hell out of the drums in the second half is awesome.

As an atheist,I like the motif of not reaching heaven. Given the fact that its fake someone might as well right a song about it.

Kudos Coldplay you are one of the best bands ever!! Rock on.

[WinkyMcGee]

i'm no religious fanatic, but i am just as put off by your pointless declaration of your atheism as i would be by someone rambling on about the rapture. here's a commandment for you: Thou Shalt Keep Thy Religion (Or Lack Thereof) To Thyself.

[jagscrag]

what do you think comes after life?

[GreenBuddha000]

they're definitely influenced by both U2 and radiohead on this album... it's obvious. But they do their own thing so it's straight. Love the sound, love the lyrics, love the band.

Don't go comparing a band to its influences though. That's just ignorant.

[iluvmath90210not]

yupp

they had U2 producer Eno working on most of the album [ i got that from itunes haha]

[jwchiliboy]

My new fav song ever!!

Its bloody brilliant!!

[ADKS1]

i love the second part of the song

[FeeltheBeat95]

wow. u had amazing seats! lol...

[alessandro1303]

great song!

[bliargh]

and the guy singing... han solo right?

is this the interior of the aluminum falcon?

[bliargh]

ah i heard this song when radiohead wrote it... this is radiohead right?

[Graeniac]

Dude... don't be an idiot, of course this isn't a Radiohead song you twit. :-p

[TuhProduce]

lolled not real quick is he :D

[guitardude7771]

omg coldply did not copy that song! face it radiohead will never be as good as coldplay.

[yahikoli]

@guitardude7771, don't be so sure

[clemenceau16]

I wonder if they got the song title from Hitchiker's guide to the galaxy... that would be amazing.

Also, love how consistent they are live vs. album.

[TakeTheLongWay]

You thought you might be a ghost, you didn't get to heaven but you made it close...

[onarudkus]

yeah i really like that part too...it seems to be the motif in their album. not getting to heaven.

[TuhProduce]

well the whole album is about dead

and that song is from 2006-2008 Chris lost some family members; and he wrote that song for them

[purpleconverse8]

love this album.

one of my favorites im still trying to decide if it is my favorite. love them all

:)

[weteyemoon]

2:30 is the best part in my opinion

[LaaaauraJ]

Exactely what you say

[SaraProtti]

I likeeeeeeeee them so much....!!!

[punktuete05]

Chris looks like a jerk but nonetheless he's pretty cool and this song is one of their greatest

[Nightmare0088]

I bought A Rush Of Blood to the Head when I was 11. For me is one of the best albums ever. This new one is pretty good too. Colplay rocks!

[TizSpritz]

I adore this song.. I'm waiting for the concert next 29th September.. I really love Coldplay!! :o)

[Lucii1293]

Amazing how he can switch between piano and guitar. I would certainly get confused.

[frozenray0079]

haha what does he say at 3:34?

[coolhandluque]

sounds like he says..arrgh, i messed it up again, second time....

[joshsirjoshules]

good song, radiohead should steal it.

[ToPcz]

42 with Yes: for me best of the new album :)

[crisfreddy]

Chris is GOD!

[DiscoForBreakfast]

love this song best ever

[guitardude184]

AMAZING SONG!! so deep...

[desol89]

one question: were u not allowed cameras in that place? cuz i wanna know if guards really check for camcorders/cameras when u go, im gonna see em in july at chicago. i wanna know if i can bring a camera or something in a bag and they wont check...id love to get GOOD pictures, not crappy ones from my phone that doesnt even zoom in...

[oldscool10]

they check bags buddy, bring a small cam corder instead, one that will fit in your coat pocket.

[desol89]

that works, thanks.

im still hoping guards dont see me recording or taking pics.

[SstalkerS]

this song sounds the best on their new album

[melissa15678]

I love Coldplay's fourth album, Best song on the album, aswell as Lost! Violet Hill and Vida la vida and death and all his friends. Actually those lot are brilliant, well my favourites. He's so talented to just go fron singing and piano to pick up a guitar and do that too!! I LOVE COLDPLAY!!!

[shikinluv]

My favourite off the album by far.

[MugCostanza]

"Oh ffff... I messed up at the end for the second time in two nights."

[2dhill]

Whoa, I thought the piano always faced the other way...

[Daviniel]

[corleone243]

[Utangel17]

[keithkelly]

seems right to me

[thefluffyelephant]

what mistake did he make at the end? He says he missed out something, but I couldn't work it out. I listened to the CD to try figure out but couldn't. Anyone know??

[BrentQuinn]

he wasnt holding down the sustain pedal on the piano.

[crispyeverclean]

this is so awesome live!

[jpxdude]
