Love this track!!!

I was really looking forward to hearing it after reading all the buzz on here and it didn't disappoint.

Sorry to open up an old question, but who's is that voice at the beginning. I know someone on another thread said it's Eno - but is that the definitive answer?

Sounds like Guy to me...

TheFoxThatBecameGod · 13-06-2008, 07:51 PM

Beautiful song. One of the best on the album!

ViCk · 13-06-2008, 08:28 PM

I love love love this song! It´s my favourite one, for sure. It makes me smile... I´ve heard that it´s Guy´s favourite track, is that correct?

Chris said in an interview recently that if you listen carefully you can hear eno complaining about the tempo... i'm surprised they didn't edit that out.. makes me wonder if it's deliberate attempt to make it sound informal and personal with all the counting in songs and eno's commentary.. almost as if to further depart from the whole X&Y "big band" and "overproduced" (or so they say) image which may have distanced them from fans (not that i necessarily agree with that view.. i love X&Y).

I love this song too.. just heard it today for the first time when i bought the album (i waited..) and it's easily one of my favourites, not only because it's a fantastic song, but also because it's one of the very few songs on the album that retains the romantic quality of old coldplay. not that it sounds anything like it, but it reminds me of SITS.. same kind of feeling i get when i listen to it.

RedGirl76 · 15-06-2008, 06:41 PM

I hope they do it in the live shows... it's such a fun song.

ksg_tarheelfan · 16-06-2008, 02:19 AM

I absolutely love the ending lyrics and tune...makes me feel so happy.

"The sky could be blue. I don't mind. Without you it's a waste of time."

AWESOME!

Yeah, I'm all wrapped up in this song at the moment. It keeps wanting to escape my iPod, because it's definitely one for the volume and a good-sized room

I've actually set as the background music in one of my photo slideshows. Perfect.

winigwl · 16-06-2008, 11:17 PM

this is one of my favorites on the new album but it was disappointing live

Riku_88 · 20-06-2008, 04:57 AM

This is easily the best track on the album and my favorite. After this one, my next 2 favorites would be Life In Technicolor, and VLV.

StarsKay · 21-06-2008, 11:28 AM

i looooooooooooooove this song! it's energetic, the beat is amazing and the way Chris sings and the rest of the band plays - fanbloodytastic

how anybody can't like this song is puzzling.

Death Hill · 21-06-2008, 03:08 PM

I love it, it sort of reminds me of "Green Eyes".

Tristan Ludlow · 21-06-2008, 05:37 PM

That is the essence of coldplay well reflected. I think the combo of Will and Chris at the beginning is really amazing. I hope Mr Champion get convinved on to sing a hole song..that should be wonderful

[sorry if I make mistakes on the expression but remember that I'm from Spain

evelite · 21-06-2008, 10:56 PM

For me this is definitely the best tune of the album, it doesn't get out of my head. Both the rythm and the lyrics transmit such a positive feeling I can't stop listening to it. It raises me up ;-)
