From the Archive - Some Questions: F*cked Up
urgh
what was THAT? I did not like it.
I did like the line about snow...white snow..
I can't get the BBC iPlayer thing
to skip through the show, and I'm not listening to two hours of Jo fucking Whiley. And, unsurprisingly, Coldplay's site is pretty much dead. Still waiting to hear it...
Scrap that
it's on their MySpace. http://www.myspace.com/coldplay
And it sounds like
something from A Rush Of Blood To The Head with better production.
You are right.
It has Eno all over it. I got it off their site, took a while - I wanted to hear it in my B&O headphones. It sounds nice, but I am still not sure of the song. I think it might be better surrounded by other tracks.
It's free to download from
http://www.coldplay.com
I grabbed it there.
It's not bad but basically forgettable. I put on Drive Like Jehu after a few listens and am in no hurry to go back to it.
no way
it is something totally different
i've not heard it but
it makes me want some parma violets.
The album title is shit though. And graffitti-ing badly over 'Liberty Leading The People' for the artwork...urgh.
...
its actually a resonable effort. Very Rush Of Blood...-y but the guitar stabs at the start are interesting. It doesn't have the big flag waving chorus, that I thought they might fall into. Like the "Love me, let me know" bit."
Downloaded it off the site, took a while.
Excellent
I think it's very good. A move away from the lukewarm bombast of x&y back to the anxious spooked romance of a rush of blood. I like it very much and can't stop playing it. A return to form.
violet hill
is the name of my local, very little park..
in fact come to think of it that may be where Chris and Gwyneth hang out with their kid..
He said he had no idea where it was on the radio.
LIAR.
Ive just downloaded it from their site
it sounds just like Elbow to me, decent i suppose its a bit of a change anyway
Bahaha,
Absolute shiza song. Coldplay's luck has finally run out!
If 'Coldplay make shit song'
represents their luck running out, Chris Martin must sleep on a mattress of roadkill black cats.
What's he doing with his voice?
Arch-ee-tecthurgh
Dec-ee-mburgh
Re-me-mburgh
I find the song a bit urgh really.
New Opinion:
I like a lot more than at first. It is quite nice, but in parts, rather inspired. The lyrics are okay, with some nice throw away lines. The lack of a chorus is rather bold too from the epic chorus a thon that was X&Y. Good turn I think.
i like the production
there is something very progressive in this song, i think sounds different from X&Y (thanks god!) closer to the romanticism of a rush of blood but it is not too derivative.
