"Violet Hill" video observations

[Pseudonym]

Okay so Ive watched the Violet Hill video several times, and I made some observations.

First, did anyone notice Chris going "Whoa whoa" halfway thru Jonnys solo (2:25)? I didnt notice it until in the video it shows Chris singing it, and I was like "cool!"

Also, in the lyrics it says he sings "Bury me in honor when Im dead and hit the ground", but in the video you can see it looks more like he mouths "Bury me in ARMOUR when Im dead..." Just watch and listen carefully, and it sounds like he might actually be saying "armour" not "honor" (1:51).

good observations. im waiting for any official lyrics to come out...im not good with lyrics.

i head the "whoa, whoa" in the song..its was very subtle...

i didnt like the music video very much though. =( hopefully next single will have a better one

[IneedYou23]

Yea i always thought he said "armour."

At 1:04 Jonny's not playing anything...

This video reminds me of the land of Mordor from Lord Of The Rings - the rough, rocky terrain etc. Anyone else think that, or am I a weirdo?

[caity...]

oh my god! i totally get what you mean. i'm expecting a large volcano to go off and two of them to shrink a considerable amount... now I'm the weird one...

Hehe, and some Sam and Frodo-esque exchanges between Chris and Jonny! Oops, perve alert :P

[BostonSportsTD]

[Miha]

I think he says: "My love's opposed but unfolds" ;) ..if that makes any sense at all!

[NeSs1776]

felicote, Coldplay--like nearly any other artist (barring country music people)--are decidedly liberal. No need to worry over that! :laugh4:

[felicote]

i know, they did after all dedicate their grammy to john kerry. It was just an observation

[tauiwi]

Back on the video... I LOVE the solo bit where the band nods their heads around a piano, its hilarious!!

[mattypclaret]

this is definatly one of coldplays more trickier songs to work out the lyrics to lol

In the video it says STOW, but in the original song it is most certainty Snow. It's said many times over and it sounds like snow each time.
