Once, I kind of found it a little boring, but it was probably just cuz of the bad sound quality on youtube.


BTW: This is my 400th post, 600 to go!

About 6, because I'm downstairs with my Mum and she has the TV on so I've had to listen through headphones. Would be A LOT more otherwise.

Same here. Am I not a Coldplay fan if Im not listening to these songs a million times? I just dont want to wear them out until the album is released, then Ill listen to the whole thing a million times in one day.

8 times on iTunes, not to mention the number of times i've heard it on my iPod... a really good song! i really like the strings and the part particuarly like the singing at around and leading up to 3:00

TracieMorgan
08-05-2008, 01:25 AM
I think only 4 so far, but I still don't want to spoil it for myself. Especially since I think it's possibly their best song ever. If I get tired of this one, there's no hope,lol.

Loads, mainly watching their MTV movie awards performance and Jonathan Ross show performance, many many times!!!

SPEED OF SOUND
15-06-2008, 06:34 PM
I think it has to be my fave so far on the album. It has to be the new albums version of Speed of Sound and that meant personally so much to me and I think this will.
Dont get me wrong the rest of the album is amazing but cant get Viva La Vida out of my head:)

i havent listened to it that much tbh.

ive listened to viloet hill about double.

although i think its cos its such a good song i want to pace myself with it so in never ever get bored with it. which i cant see happeining. but because of that i just aint listened to it as much as i shud.

Silas Mars
04-07-2008, 09:00 PM
103 times. (itunes)

This song is like no other. It leaves you with a sense of longing....hard to describe.

Not like their other BIG songs like Yellow, Clocks, and Speed of Sound. It's hard for me to listen to those now.

Mig-El
07-07-2008, 03:33 AM

I think listening to Violet Hill had it way into making me not want to listen to the rest of the songs on the album.

You shouldn't need to do that...iTunes saves all the play counts in "My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music Library.xml", so if you copy that file to the new computer you shouldn't lose them. Or does that computer not even start up? :\

I've lost count but at least 3 times a day since it was released. Plus extras on Youtube etc.

Maybe 100? I usually use my iPod, so the computer doesn't show it.

I have no idea how many times I've played the song but it's a lot!!! I can't give an exact figure as I prefer to listen to my Coldplay CDs rather than listen to iTunes via my computer (although I do that as well sometimes). I listen to Coldplay every day and Viva La Vida is still my favourite song on the current album.

LoversInJapan

268 times on iTunes, where I somehow ended up purchasing it 3 times :laugh3: two copies of the single and then once with the whole album.

Course, that doesn't count the million times I've listened on iPod or radio :D
