I heard it when I was in my room.. and thought no way are my parents listening to Coldplay (they are not big fans.. hardly any at all if at that) walked into the living room and saw Twilight segments and was like "WTF" lol.

It was the for the category "Romance 2008"

Amazing! And I play PC and my TV is behind me (180°) and I heared it and I thought Coldplay performing Lovers in Japan live on the Oscars! :D

Nice, how much people watch the oscars. And of course, it is also live in germany :laugh3:

Twilight should be BANNED from all romance montages. Twilight isn't romance, it's creepy Stephanie Meyer's sexual fantasy with teen obsessiveness thrown in =D

I was watching it with my dad and he saw me "see!" it was Coldplay,hehe.

notlost92

23-02-2009, 03:06 AM

Oooh, that was so exciting! I was in the study with my dad and the Oscars were on in the other room, and suddenly I heard LIJ and sprinted into the other room without even saying a word! And we were mid-conversation, too :lol:

Twilight should be BANNED from all romance montages. Twilight isn't romance, it's creepy Stephanie Meyer's sexual fantasy with teen obsessiveness thrown in =D

True dat! :thumbsup: I've never read/seen Twilight, nor do I ever plan to. EVER.

I SQUEED AND DIED. :dead:

coldplay and the oscars are my two favorite things. and gwyneth and slumdog millionaire and last chance harvey and nick and nora and so many good movies were in there...:bigcry:. that BETTER be on youtube or somewhere soon :D

Chelsea! I was totally thinking of you while I was watching it... I was like "Oh, Slumdog Millionaire clips set to Coldplay, Chelsea must be dying!" :P

Carla

23-02-2009, 03:15 AM

I was sitting in front of my TV and when I heard the song I was like OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE USING A COLDPLAY SONG!:stunned:

It was amazing!!.... well Coldplay makes everything look amazing :smug:

Woo hoo!
First, Penelope wins Best Supporting Actress,
Now, Coldplay song!

Yeah that's right... Penelope looked like she was about to faint... she couldn't even talk!

yeahhright

23-02-2009, 03:15 AM

Your loss on the Twilight front notlost92. I happen to love that book, Breaking Dawn not so much but the first three are a great read.

Back on topic, when do the Oscars end? I really want to see this clip now.

notlost92

23-02-2009, 03:19 AM

:sick: Thanks, but I'll pass. :P i also didn't need to see High School Musical set to Coldplay- I've never seen those either, and don't plan to! :lol:

But other than that, it was an awesome video, especially how it ended with WALL-E. :wacky: Chris must've been happy, he said he loved that movie :nice:

Yay, they used the song at the beginning of the Jerry Lewis' tribute video :D

yeahhright

23-02-2009, 03:54 AM

^Twilight is an amazing book series that was written for teenage girls about a vampire and how he falls in love with a girl in Washington state. Also its a book that once you read it you either love or hate, but mostly people refuse to read it to make themselves seem "cooler". Its not for everyone and not the best written book I've ever seen but it is good for light reading.

And I guess I should be regretting not turning on the Oscars now that two great songs have been used, but im sure someone will post them later, right?

:rolleyes: Now that's what I call an unbiased description. :dozey: I don't "refuse to read it to make myself seem cooler", I just don't like a) vampires, b) love stories, c) vampire love stories, or d) trashy books (I don't enjoy "light reading").

Jeez, why are Twilight people always so crazy when you say you don't read the books? My friends are the same way :confused:

/offtopic oops! :embarassed:

yeahhright

23-02-2009, 04:27 AM

^for me its because everyone i know that won't read are like that or are really stupid about it and trash them without even knowing what they are about. And we are so "crazy" because we know its good and want to spread the love and enjoyment of it to others, not for any harmful reason. Also off topic, but the off topic needed response...

Other than that the clip looks really cute, but I wonder why the Oscars decided to use it and not maybe a compilation of the songs up for awards...

Twilight for Coldplay song?? Urgh.
I've read the books and tried to like it (because my friends are all crazy about them) but failed.
And the movie was even worse...:dozey:

23-02-2009, 08:39 AM

Whenever I hear a Coldplay song playing, and I'm not the one that put it on, I automatically just yell "Coldplay!!!" and get really happy. It's almost subconscious.
I was watching the Oscars with my parents and when I heard LIJ I got soooooooooo excited! And then they used VLV later! I got to yell it twice tonight!
Also, I think they were one of the only bands whose music was used in the show tonight that wasn't from a movie. Other than what I believe was The Hives during the Action Movie Montage. The guy doing the music must be a CP fan.;)

I don´t heared VLV!!! :( I was asleep! :D
What do you think: Does Coldplay know that they´ve been played on the oscars or not?

WALL-E is a fantastic and absolut perfect movie! The most best details I´ve ever seen on a animation-movie and the story is funny and of course sad. The movie is absolutly the best animation movie since it gets :dance: And I have it on DVD and seen it ...10times now? :laugh3:

EVVVVAAAAAAAA?? *o.O*

Gooooood Day :P

PS: I was asleep because the Oscars started live here in Germany I think around 2:15am! I was to tired :P

No less than 7 people today came up to me and went "hey, did you see the Oscars? Because Coldplay was used!" And every time I'd have to be like "yes, I saw it, but thanks for letting me know." :rolleyes: Apparently I'm the official Coldplay person at school now :P

It's actually pretty impressive, though, because did they ever actually say during the Oscars that it was Lovers in Japan by Coldplay? All of these people recognized the song as a Coldplay song, and they don't even listen to them. I guess LIJ was more popular than we thought!

^ Hell yeah! It might have something to do with the many Coldplay shirts, Coldplay sweatshirt, Coldplay bag, Coldplay patch on my backpack, 3 (soon to be 4) concerts, my iPod playing Coldplay 24/7, the Coldplay ringtones and background on my phone, the fact that Coldplay is basically my only topic of conversation... :P
