No doubt their best video ever. Finally something that stands out--a clever idea that was executed perfectly and with a great deal of humor.

Good job, Coldplay!

Not ashamed of voting a 10. Certainly their best video since Talk, and perhaps a candidate for the best of their career.

I want those puppets on my desk now. :cool:

When I see Phil in that jumper it reminds me a little of 'Bridget Jones' and 'Mark Darcy' with his reindeer jumper he got from his mum :laugh3:

Phil can be lucky that it's only a knitted jumper and that there isn't a reindeer on it ... ;)

i do kind of wish that the guys were in it, though, as puppeteers or something. i think it would be funny because this is all stuff that they'd never do in real life, like smashing guitars, so it would be hilarious to see them giggling about making their puppet-selves to do it :P

Wow...that was absolutely ADORABLE! And hilarious...I was pretty much cracking up the whole time. I loved when Will's drumset exploded. And the looks on the kids' faces...priceless! This pretty much made my day. And it had already been made because of the inauguration. So, my day was made TWICE. :D

Finally! A good Coldplay video.

This video's hilarious.
Especially Jonny smashing his guitar into the speakers, and Chris' stagedive.

Gya
20-01-2009, 09:47 PM
:inquisitive: :laugh4:

Definitely a 10.

Okay, at first when the video started it was yet pretty harmless, and I was thinking, it's kinda like "Honey, I shrunk the kids, uhm Coldplay". (Btw. I love all the oldfashioned people in this vid... So crazy funny *lol*)
Light goes on and Chris starts to go wild a bit... b-stage pulls out, nothing unfamiliar yet... But then suddenly Chris is doing a somersault and doing the splits... and it begins...
:laugh3: So funny, when the "bombs" explode... Yeah Chris, stage diving, I'd wish he'd do this for real :wink3: Then Jonny smashing his guitar, shortly before all of them are doing a runaway and escape with their helicopter... At least Will is so nice and is throwing his drumsticks into the "crowd". Hahahaha.
Oh and yeah, Phil!!

I love it. Totally overdoing things... :D

ok, so I'm still afraid of puppets....but this was fanfuckingtastic-ally hilarious!!!!!:laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:
Chris's antics; the kids reactions--that little girl w/ the fan-mag was so cuute(and yes, lucky for getting teeny tiny drumsticks:P); loooved Jonny smashing the guitar;
but I got scared when they blew up the drums:stunned:, I thought "Will is gonna burn, he's made of cloth!":lol:
I think the reason that Guy looks NOTHING like real Guy is supposed to be ironic, with that big smile on his face--in real concerts Guy is usally very serious for the most part, and that puppet was NOT sexy at all!!!LOL
Looved Phil's geeky sweater--you can't fool us, mr. director, we still think Phil is HOT!:P
I just wish Chris really acted like that in concerts---body surfing:wink3::wink3::wink3: Can you imagine, he'd get back to the stage with his clothes all torn!LOL

Oh and someone said to pause at 1:36...:stunned::D:P
(i wonder if that's supposed to be a likeness of a real roadie!?)

The helicopter part reminded me of the Studio-story some Coldplayer wrote here http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2287210&highlight=helicopter#post2287210 (but here they escaped from an angry Coldplayer mob :lol:)

THAT WAS SWEEEEEEETTTT!!! SO FUNNY!!!! I can't stop laughing.
This reminds me why I love Coldplay so much! Their creativity, their talent, and their humour :laugh3:
This video makes me think of their "Talk" video since it was pretty unexpected what was to come and absolutely hilarious.

Some Highlights
- The stage expanding outwards like it was alive
- The details of the set (video monitor, clothing, = sign, etc)
- The Crew (Roadies) :dozey:

I'm guessing that I was not the first person to notice and everyone probably was drooling over Phil's hotness in the previous pages of this thread :dozey:

Anyway..... THANK YOU FOR BEING AWESOME COLDPLAY!!!!

WAHAHA Oh my goodness, that was so HILARIOUS! The contrast between the WTF-faced people and the totally unusual Coldplay, god I'm still crying of laughter! :lol::laugh3:

The helicopter part reminded me of the Studio-story some Coldplayer wrote here http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2287210&highlight=helicopter#post2287210 (but here they escaped from an angry Coldplayer mob :lol:)


Ohh and I want this book here:

I think the reason that Guy looks NOTHING like real Guy is supposed to be ironic, with that big smile on his face--in real concerts Guy is usally very serious for the most part, and that puppet was NOT sexy at all!!!LOL
You're probably right. It actually really confused me to see him grinning that much, hehe *g*

Looved Phil's geeky sweater--you can't fool us, mr. director, we still think Phil is HOT!

This reminds me why I love Coldplay so much! Their creativity, their talent, and their humour :laugh3:
This video makes me think of their "Talk" video since it was pretty unexpected what was to come and absolutely hilarious.

Some Highlights
- The stage expanding outwards like it was alive
- The details of the set (video monitor, clothing, = sign, etc)
- The Crew (Roadies) :dozey:
- The Massive stacks of Marshall amps and Jonny smashing his stratocaster (not telecaster :bigcry: ) guitar
- Guy's puppet :lol: looks nothing like him
- Chris crowd-surfing, the pyrotechniques, the helicopter-out, and basically everything that Coldplay would never do in actual life because it's ridiculous :D

Supergrass had a puppet video too, but with their real heads:

YouTube - Supergrass PumpingOnYourStereo

i noticed that!!! wheres jonny poor guy!

Aww! He was in line for the helicopter. You can even see his little puppet hand holding his hat so it won't fly away in all the wind! But suddenly this puppet has vanished!


:sneaky: I stole him!!! Mwahahah!

I think the Jonny puppet smashed his guitar b/c he was angry that his mouth couldn't open for him to sing the "oohohhhooooohh"s.

Aaaaaaaand...I'm not sure if the puppet-crew techies were indeed modeled like the actual real-life ones.....but the one that fixed Jonny's cymbal looks A LOT like the techie that gave me the setlist at the Anaheim gig :lol:



By far the BEST video. This beats "Talk" by a long-shot! :smug:

I'd love to see the day when the boys smash their guitars on amps it'll be amusing or break someones window without apologising or offering more than necessary. That was the awesomest vid ever. It kinda has the same comedic value as Talk - a little more personality. I think that's it.

Does any one else think that "Mr Punch" sounds like Chris is doing his voice?

I thought that too when I first saw the vid ^^.... It could be him.... afterall, the puppet thingy was his idea!

Anyone who rated under 9 is a fuckin prick!!!!
I love the fact they set up two toms while Will usually has only one plus he doesnt even use them in this song and the marshalls:D
That is so funny! !Anyone who voted 9 or below deserves to be beheaded.

It's there, it's just light. Maybe Guy has shaved and we don't know because we haven't seen him yet. :stunned:
I see it now. I just think his facial hair shows up more in person then Johnny's does... Still a really fun video. I think I like Lovers In Japan slightly better. 2 VERY good vids in a row.

Admit it, you're only pissed because the stars of the video are Chris, Jonny, Will and Silvester Stallone's younger look-a-like :lol:

Naaaaaah, I just think it's silly :P.........I guess I was looking for something as brilliant as the Violet Hill & Lovers In Japan videos. :sick:
I love that song anyway, with or without poppets. :smug:

Amazing video! :laugh3: Best video they've done since 'The Scientist'! That made me laugh so hard I nearly let a little fart out :embarassed:

yeahhright
22-01-2009, 01:11 AM
Eh, I gave it a five as well. Its not that its bad, no not at all, its just that while cute and funny its not my cup of tea. My sister, however, nearly fell to the floor laughing and told me that it deserves a fifteen out of ten.:rolleyes:

Um why are Guy, Will and Chris so damn ugly as marionettes/puppets.

HOWEVER Jonny looks scrumptious.

OMFG THAT WAS JUST FREAKIN' INCREDIBLEO _+O! it was like awesome!! I LOVE DIT..
SERIOUSLY.. the effects were brilliant.. the WHOLE idea behind it was perfect!!

Great to see kids on a music video. This is so seldom.
My daughter is going to love it.

Very funny with the clowns on the motorcycles and the explosions. It feels like self-parody about "we-are-doing-a big-show-in-concerts".

Very clever to aim at the under 10-years-old...=> more money for the puppet master.

Totally brilliant, and who ever came out with this idea and execution is genius!!!

I gave it a 7 although I was tempted to go lower, I'm really not wild about it :sick:

I feel like the video was more about the special effects than the song, which disappointed me since it's one of my favorite Coldplay songs. Having the special effects audio over the song (e.g. with the motorcycles) is what really did it for me. The Scientist video, in my opinion, balances the video and song much better because the plot of the video connected with the lyrics. This was just... too busy.

I don't know. Maybe I'll get used to it and learn to love it!

yes!
22-01-2009, 10:57 AM
well i gave it a 0 because i thought it was more a children's clip than a coldplay thing. they don't need to wonder why so many people think coldplay is for gay, or for girls.... (as if those people were natural born with a bad taste :dozey: )

somehow i had the feeling that the whole clip was chris' idea when he was at a puppet show with his kids....:thinking:

I gave it a 9: it's original, funny and there are some 'hidden messages' in (like Phil, who only real fans recognise). And the details are great, like the Fair Trade mark on Chris's hand.
I like it a lot, I think it's one of their best clips ever!

For years now, the music industry has been talking about a crisis in music sales, as online music sharing platforms have grown in fame and number. This change took the music industry by surprise and the industry has responded by being more creative, creating innovative initiatives, and offering more added value to its consumers.

It’s interesting to see the development in the music industry over the last few years. One group that has become famous for its enormous innovation is Radiohead. Last summer we talked about Radiohead’s headline-making 3D music video for House of Cards (read article here (http://www.culture-buzz.com/blog/Radiohead-Launches-its-Latest-Video-in-3D-1730.html)). Also, it’s no secret that in the fall of 2007, Radiohead opted against using a label for its new “In Rainbows” album and instead sold it online through a system in which fans could buy the album online, deciding for themselves how much they were willing to pay. This initiative proved to create quite a stir in the industry.

Coldplay shows us it can reel audiences in with its innovation, too. Coldplay, along with Dougal Wilson, have created a wonderful video for the group’s Life in Technicolor ii. Rather than use the group members, the video is made up of group member puppets performing a puppet show concert to a group of children. Not only are the group members converted into puppets, but so are the stage and sound crews. The entire concept for a touching song is so well-done that it can’t help but keep us hooked. I especially liked seeing the faces of the children light up as things began exploding on stage. Additionally, I absolutely love the ending, when a helicopter takes the stars away. Seeing the amazing production with puppets has only made me want to see the show live even more! Coldplay, when are you coming here?

you my dear are not a noob!! and that's a good question!! so a little Coldplay info i heard today. So i get BBC Radio 1 on satlellite and they played LIT II at like 3 ish NY time today (8 ish England time) and then Sarah Cox i think was the DJ said make sure to tune in tomorrow am for some big Coldplay news. now this could be info that we all ready know cause we know stuff before they do or it could be boring info or something actually of substance . so tune in your Radio to BBC 1 tomorrow am. she did not say what time exactly
