Wow...

I just wanted to post my appreciation for 'Postcards From Far Away'.

Even though it is quite a short piece of music it is by far my favourite piece on Prospekt's March, or perhaps out of all of the new material I have heard since the release of AROBTTH.

It reminds me of the track 'Parachutes'. Short but sweet.

It also has a 'Bucket For A Crown' vibe to it, which I think can still be found on YouTube.

I like that, even though Coldplay have taken the commercial path with their music, they're still able to create something as deep and as beautiful as this. If you get what I mean.

It was completely unexpected.

[CPRani]

I got tears in my eyes when I heard this, it's just amazing. I just love it.

[FixYougirl]

Great song but really too short though.

[annabelle]

It's short but sweet. I absolutely love this song!

[sticker14]

Dan, I love your avatar. I don't know if you saw CP live this time out, but they played some Boards of Canada before Coldplay went on. I was jamming out, it was great.

[double-trouble]

It's short but sweet, which makes me delighted and sad at the same time.

" Life is so short and I am sure there must be something more..."

[carkids]

its so short but I think its perfect, I love the way chris plays the piano! Actually I love him(:

Thanks :D though I have changed my avatar now..

Haha, yeh BoC are pretty awesome. I was introduced to them by a friend earlier in the year :)

[Clocks In My Place]

It is indeed a rather fine piece of music. Short, sweet and yet touching. I might want to learn how to play it some time, I don't think it's so hard to play. :nice:

[EverybodyLies]

I know its BEAUTIFUL, i wish it was like 3 hours long :D that would make me happy

[мaямellata]

he playied it in denver :smug2:
it was beautifull♥ :)

[Magnus]

A beautiful piece of piano, but I have a feeling like it's unfinished... Would've been a great song if with lyrics and 3 mins long...

[Strawberry Swinger]

no , without lyrics,but with development :(

[coldplay_are_forever]

I LOVE IT!! I think this song is pure genius, deep and touching and...AMAZING!
Btw I wish it was a bit longer too, cause it's too good!! But if coldplay thinks that's its lenght then fine by me :D

[Magnus]

Coldplay can be wrong too, you know :P

They're only human...

[Yes?]

Chris played it last night:) glad he did it, it really is a beautiful piece of music.

[emedy]

It's awesome:)

[Batmotor]

A really short track,and i don't understand why,but it's a good piano tune,maybe there will be a longer version just like 'Life in Technicolor' it's like they want to know if the people like the tune and if so they will make a longer track,it's an experiment.

[Corkus]

Doubt it, as it strikes me as more of a nice "interlude" track that can't have much added to it, hence why it wound up on the EP. It's great to hear live, but also really suspenseful knowing that you're about to wail and scream when it ends 'cause Viva is about to start.

[Tnspieler1012]

I agree, in fact I'd be dissapointed if it was expanded into anything more than it is. Any longer and it'd just become boring. And there's no way it can be turned into a pop tune, it frankly doesn't deserve that fate.

[Sparks22]

I adore the track, it should have been on VLV as a hidden track behind Death and all his friends, that would have been a great surprise...

[RICK8]

I do like it,but it's too short.

[Macintosh]

Really short but more than beautiful! Sounds like a Fur Elise a little bit.

[RICK8]

Learnt to play it on the piano now....:p

[Open, Politik]

Nice piano, its great seeing Chris evolve, I wish he will do more, even crazier stuff in the future.

[lovers.in.nj]

"Postcards From Far Away" has to be one of the greatest Coldplay song, even though it is only like a minute and has no words. It's incredibly beautiful. Good job Chris!

[Grace.]

It was even more beautiful live than on the EP! And I loved how easily it led into VLV... so you were sitting there awestruck one second and then all of a sudden you were cheering, clapping and singing "OoooOOOOoooooohhhh!" :P

[Humma]

It's perfect!:heart:

[pommeline]

It's a perfect piece of music, but add a minute or two more and it would be a masterpiece.

[GiveMeHeart+Soul]

The piece is not long, however it is such a short and sweet beautiful composure. I found it a nice surprise to be in the album. :)

I would happily hear more! :cool:

[The Final Track]

The piece is not long, however it is such a short and sweet beautiful composure. I found it a nice surprise to be in the album. :)

I would happily hear more! :cool:

Ah, but Prospekt's March is not an album ;)

[cp13]

All of you have no idea what you are talking about, it is one of those rare pieces that I, as a songwriter, can not think of anything to add to. It IS short, but who cares? If I may, it is perfect.

[rab2591]

One of the most beautiful piano pieces I've ever heard. If it were a three minute long piano solo, it could have gotten tiresome....granted, it is so beautiful, I doubt it...but it is amazing in its simplicity and length.

One of the best songs from the Viva La Vida era....

[rnel16]

I think PFFA is absolutely stunning! I'm so looking forward to learning to play it on piano. Yes, it's short but IMO perfect the length it is. My definite fave from Prospekts March - without a doubt!

[Brent]

I think that people love it because it's Coldplay. :blank:

It's a mediocre instrumental, and that's that. Yeah, it's pretty, but it's not like OMGOOAOMMAMAZMLKSLCkjHS AMAZEBALLZ
