AMAZING SONG!

[Eh Steve!]

From the preview this song IS BRILLIANT!
This is probably one of my favorite song of coldplay !

[alexman331]

It is really good!

[twistedleksi2008]

Sounds so so much nicer than the live version :)

[Eh Steve!]

definitely

[crawlinwithin]

going to be absolutely epic!

[Navegador]

The perfect word: Epic.

[Tonsu]

LOVED the live version - thought it was even going to beat LiJ, Politik and Warning Sign into first place right there, but don't much care for the studio version snippet we've heard so far...it lacks the power and urgency of the live one imho....:(

[The Mad Hatter]

This is my favorite EVER. O_O

I can already tell that I'm going to love this song for the rest of my life. I don't really know why, but it's just amazing.

In my opinion, and I haven't heard the live version 'cause I haven't really been following all of the Coldplay stuff recently, the drums give it a sense of urgency, do you know what I mean? The heaviness of it. I don't know. I sound stupid when I try and talk about instruments. xD

[clisaj]

Out of the four previews, this one's my least favorite. I like it but I don't love it the way I love the other three.

[xxKels]

Also loved the bit of live version I heard over this sample .

LIT2 and Rainy Day rocks

But Yes to me still blows em all away.

[hewson0]

I love it! It's amazing!!!

[Gya]

I must have missed that... but where can I listen to the songs?

[Stefan-C8]

I must have missed that... but where can I listen to the songs?
Coldplay.com and you can dowload them from the multimedia section on this forum :)

[Tinttis]

Aahh amazing song :)

[marie/pims]

I LOVE it!!!I start jumping like mad during the chorus

[moss]

so powerful, and the piano at the end is just incredible, i hope they've developed that

[Yellow Hill]

IT'S AWESOME! :drunk:

[Dark K]

The most impressive things are:

The drums are somehow silence a bit.

The whole band is singing (epic).

The last part, the synth with the guitar, amazingness.

[winigwl]

i dont like his voice though... it was way better in the live version. its seems less passionate and weaker here.

[mountainloafers]

I agree very much. The live version was SPECTACULAR! It rocked and LOUD. The studio version is more subdued and lacks a certain oomph. I hope its different hearing the full version. The preview isnt living up to my expectations so far. The other previews were better, and thats not a bad thing. Viva La Prospekt's March!

[Eh Steve!]

I think the studio version is more louderer than the live version

[Famous Old Painter]

I must be in a minority because I think the studio version sounds much better than the live one (though they're both great)

[Absolutely]

The song is awesome....live or studio!

[The Escapist]

This song is amazing. The best out of the previews and the chorus just blows my mind.

[professa95]

its brilliant cant wait to get ep

[professa95]

I think the studio version is more louderer than the live version

more louderer :laugh3:

[c0ldplay420]

I love near the end when he busts into the piano riff.....and then they go back into the chorus to finish the song.....cant wait for the full version! EP ZINDABAD!

[Thompson]

This is so fucking amazing
I cant wait for the EP :O
LEAKKKK!!!!! NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

[musicool2]

This song blows me away... could it be the one that dethrones "Yellow" as my favourite Coldplay song?

[Famous Old Painter]

It's great stuff for sure.

The sudden outro kinda freaks me out, but that'll grow.

[mountainloafers]

This is much better than the Preview lead me to believe it would be. It and LIJ2 are the strongest as far as the lyrics go. However Rainy Day is so different than anything they have ever done I think I like it the best so far. Well, tied with Glass Of Water for now. These songs could have easily made it on the album proper. In a way I am glad they waited. What an awesome year its been for Coldplay fans. I really feel the VLV era is their best so far. If it gets better than this we are really in for a big treat in the future.

[LVI56]

It's defiantly a great song, I'm sure when people get used to it and learn the lyrics it will be epic when played live.

[The Escapist]

This is an obvious single. I hope they do,.

[Timothy Q. Mouse]

There have been rumours that this is the next single. I think the 4Music performance points at this getting a release next year.

Muse much?

BRILLIANT SONG.

[Dan 6N]

Superb song! It's anthem like and will sound amazing live!

[mattaio26]

I LOVE it!!!I start jumping like mad during the chorus

WOO!!! This song really emphasizes the epicness of Coldplay to me. :) Gonna love this for years to come:)

[blue jammer]

2nd best track on the EP, a cracker.

[CPRani]

AWESOME song, I've really been looking forward to listen to it, and it didn't dissappoint at all :D!

[garethxxgod]

Just my opinion but Glass Of Water is the only song on here that should have been on the actual VLV album. I guess we already had epicness with Viva La Vida itself and even the closing track, too much epicness? Either way it is (again IMO) the best song on the whole E.P.

[teenage.revolution.x]

REALLY like this song! it should have been on VLV instead of yes, i personally think. the heavy piano and guitar are really good elements to the song. this one will definitely be getting a high play count from me, thats for sure.

[ice water.]

I love this song so much, it is down right ridiculous. Mann. It is just magic.

[Yellow la Guy]

Glass of water - let me think....hmm..:sneaky::rolleyes:

..is absolutly a great song! And I love it right now! :)
Its a song like Yellow. Rock and Pop - slow and loud! I love it!!

Thank you VERY much for it! ;)

[Corkus]

Excellent, excellent, excellent. Favorite on the EP, with the fact that it's on an EP being both fortunate and unfortunate. It's bad because it may not get the attention it would get with an album release, but good because then it can remain a beloved treasure among core fans of the band without it getting too mainstream. I'm really hoping they play this live at the show I'm seeing on Tuesday; they seem a bit inconsistent with throwing this onto their playlists.

[professa95]

now that ive heard the full version it seems like it was cleaned up and it is amazing!!!!!!!!!!

[Malcolm-Edge]

Coldplay have made a full comeback from X&Y!

Glass of Water is downright one of their best tracks. Not only from the EP or VLV era...but down right ever. It is in my top 5 already! ITs up there with Yellow, Politik, Scientist, In My Place and Clocks. Some how it blends most of those track together!

I wonder how they'll pull off the two guitars live. This will be one they play for the rest of time

[but a dream]

I've just managed to give the entire EP a listen through... and this is my favourite track atm :nice:

[blackchickintheback]

I fucking love this song! :nice:
It's great. That line "neither half full or empty is your glass" gets to me every time.

[- Gabriel]

I can not express how much I love Coldplay for taking one of the most epic songs they've ever written and putting the chorus in 7/4 time. They pull it off amazingly well, especially based on the fact that nobody here has said that the chorus sounds weird.

I just love how they're trying new things (new for them, anyway). And the song is rockin' too.

[ColdFuse]

This song is one of the best songs on the EP. I really cant pick which song is my favorite they are all so good!!!

Some of Yes (intro, bit after first chorus), the last part of Death And All His Friends, and the chorus and solo in Glass Of Water are in 7/4, and the songs are made infinitely more epic because of this.

More odd time signatures please.

[WilsonC]

how does it feel to be named after an unreleased song?

[WilsonC]

theres this dude named famous old painter. how odd.

[bellynelly]

its a crackin' song, love love love it!!!

[OnMyOwnInASeparatSky]

The chorus just gives me goosebumps... Like the way it just takes off - the drums for example... AMAZING!!!:D

[мaямellata]

IIII LOOOVEEEE THIS SOOOONGGG!
AAAAAA, SOOO FRIKKIN MUCHHH♥

:D

[annabelle]

I love this song. It's one of my favourites on the EP and I can't stop listening to it. :):cool:

I heard Glass of Water on the radio just before I went to sleep last night. I'm glad that it's getting airplay. :D

[Magnus]

I don't really like this one :(

[Christa42]

I am soooooooooooooooooooooooo in love with this song, I'm i the car and cant help wavin my arms around and people are looking at me like is she havin a spastic fit? i think i love it as much as LIT, almost. but as i have said before its like it's like picking your favorite child, you cant, you just love them all. It's so grand and epic. i can't wait to see them sing it live.

[Mig-El]

man this one makes me go crazy with my keyboard, it's amazing!!!!

[Quinton McConnery]

This song and LIT 2 are both amazing and I can't decide which one is the best on the EP. Man, they're all so good.

[Clocks In My Place]

I love this song! :heart:

[*CoLdPlaY.4.EveR*]

Awesome!!!

[Ziggy]

I love this song.
Will I see heaven in mine?

[MartinLover]

This song is FREAKIN AWESOME!! It is my fav song off of it's CD

[Obi]

YES.

Time for Coldplay to turn prog plz. :laugh3:

Although are you sure it's 7/4 that a part of Yes is in, and not just a switch to 6/4?

[coldplayisawesome]

sooooooo, Glass of Water is pure brilliance. :wacky:

[Juanma]

brilliaance :wacky:

AND LIVE = OMG

[ipodthermic]

This song totally runs you over when played live. You get an absolutely awfully great feeling.
