Remembering Violet Hill

Bonus_mosher · 27-03-2009, 06:28 PM

I hadn't listened to it in so long.
then it just came on my shuffle playlist and It reminded me of last summer when the album was coming out and I remember sitting in my living room listening to radio one to hear the first play.

This song was the themetune to my whole last summer.
do you remember when you first heard it, where were you the day that coldplay returned!?

I remember getting up and tuning into Jo Whiley and feeling completely sick with nerves

Wow this time last year was sooooo exciting. Can't believe it was almost a whole year ago though

and inmediately fell for that song!

I had to Sky+ it because I was at work. Was so nervous listening to it incase I hated it - but it was love at first listen.

Went to Violet Hill over the summer... need to go back in December to capture the full effect!

I was there in early January - so almost!

Close enough.

It was a ridiculously hot day when I was there and there wasn't a clous in the sky. Made a nice change to the usual British summer but didn't really capture the mood of the song

Well you could always have changed the words to:

"It was a hot day in July,
There were no clouds in the sky,
Oh no, oh no................................ "

About lines! Year!!! It was amazing, April, long-awaited return of Coldplay, unforgettable feelings of acquaintance to their new sounding! First thirty seconds Violet Hill I went in the dark and did not know that to expect, creeps on a skin ran!)
and nevertheless this great Coldplay song with an unsuccessful refrain

MasoKnight · 27-04-2009, 08:35 PM

Oh, yes. I listened to it about a million times that first day, and even got to play it on my college radio station that night.

Still one of my favorites from VLV.
