Lyrics guys! No one is complaining about the song, just about the lyrics!

I agree with you because you're right. Not because I'm a shameless forum sycophant!

Hilarious and beautifully ironic that even the worst hip hop lyrics are better than these.

Q. Dear Oracle: what is the name of the font on the new single's cover? Is it even a font, or perhaps something hand-designed?

sincerely,
a budding graphic designer.

The Oracle replies:

It's basically a modified bubble font of which there are many variants.

Maybe the lyrics isn't as weird as a lot of us think.
Today, I was listing to Speed of Sound, and thought about how odd the lyrics was, but the song is still awesome. So I guess that we just need to hear the song before we can say it sucks.

deeterrocks101 · 01-06-2011, 05:57 PM

Personally I have not really looked at the lyrics. just glanced at them. I would rather hear them with the song than read and make a comment about them. Reading the lyrics ahead of time is like seeing part of a painting before seeing the whole thing. This way, I can appreciate the work as a whole.

i agree.

i mean, i can understand people not liking their new music, but i think the boys have every right to wear whatever they want, no matter how ridiculous some people might think it is.

this!
well, i don't think their lyrics are bad or anything, but it's not like every single lyric in the history of Coldplay has been pure brilliance until now.

Ok, but I get the feeling that a lot of people have written the song off already because of the lyrics

Cleggy · 01-06-2011, 06:49 PM

Judging by the lyrics, it doesn't even have a chorus. In fact. it barely has a structure at all. I have a feeling we'll end up with something like Bohemian Rhapsody or Paranoid Android which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Except they have much better lyrics.
