Videoclipul piesei "Viva La Vida", regizat de Hype Williams (excelent!)

Viva La Vida

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

Videoclipul piesei "Violet Hill (Dancing Politicians)", regizat de Mat Whitecross

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/9WqQL5WFN20&rel=0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/9WqQL5WFN20&rel=0</a>

Violet Hill

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow

Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze
Down below

When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in honor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, far below

So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?

I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still

So if you love me
Won't you let me know?

If you love me,
Won't you let me know?

Videoclipul promo al melodiei "Lost!" (filmat în timpul turneului de promovare al albumului "Viva la Vida or Death and all his friends" )

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/2-RjMRP5IbI&rel=0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/2-RjMRP5IbI&rel=0</a>

(În ciuda mişcărilor dezorientate ale lui Chris pe scenă atunci când dansează  , Coldplay sunt cei mai tari când vine vorba de concerte live ! Şi sunt sigură că nu este doar părerea mea  )

Versurile melodiei :

Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I'm in a cross

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserve
No better and no worse

I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to cross
And every door I ever tried was locked
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...

You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one

And you'll be lost
Every river that you try to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the firing stops
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...

[Lucian Velea]

Sunt tari. Au o muzică ce te prinde - şi nici nu ştii cum...

Videoclipul promo al melodiei "Lovers in Japan".. Videoclip interesant, zic eu  :

Recent, s-a încheiat concursul realizat pe Youtube, în care membrii trupei au ales un videoclip fan-made pentru melodia Lost? (varianta acustică).

Personal, nu prea sunt de acord cu videoclipul pe care băieţii l-au ales, având în vedere că, după părerea mea, au existat filmuleţe şi mai interesante. Dar aceasta a fost alegerea lor. Iată videoclipul câştigător :

Iată şi videoclipul piesei "Life in technicolor ii" - e destul de ciudăţel, dar totodată drăguţ
