Coldplay Music Videos

purplemonkeyz232 · 30-11-2011, 08:56 PM

Which one is your favorite and why?
Which songs do you think should have videos and don't currently? (I would LOVE to make a video for Glass of Water or 42...)

nancyk58 · 30-11-2011, 09:01 PM

My favourite Coldplay videos are The Scientist (starting at some point and then going back in time / people moving backwards)

Strawberry Swing (the way the video was made on the pavement) and Paradise (I find it a moving story with funny elements).

Yep, a video for 42 would be nice.

purplemonkeyz232 · 30-11-2011, 09:18 PM

Haha! I really like those too! I've always kind of wondered how they went about making the scientist. In theory, wouldn't Chris have to sing the song backwards?

He did.

he learned how to mouth the words backwards so that when they filmed, it would look awesome.

My favorites are Strawberry swing (love the stop motion, and chris as a superhero), life in technicolor II (all the people's 'wtf' reactions to the coldplay puppet show) and paradise (adorable story) I would love a video for Sleeping Sun

kittybitty · 30-11-2011, 10:30 PM

The Scientist of course.
I personally like Lovers in Japan, so much going on, and the boys look really cool.
Paradise is a really good video, actually. I love at the beginning when Chris as the elephant is behind bars and heaves that heavy sigh. And I love the Jonny as elephant is still wearing his hat.

The Scientist
Life In Technicolor ii (actually the first video I watched and I laughed so hard

)
I like the Shiver one a lot too... I think it's Chris's hair

Strawberry Swing is the version of Princess of China and Paradise for my part

a video of Princess of China is almost Lovers in Japan vs Strawberry Swing

That's just awesome!

I'm gonna go watch that video again now, and marvel at it's brilliance...

ETIAW. So bright and vibrant, makes the song a lot better when accompanying

Lynn42 · 01-12-2011, 04:09 AM

Well, the boys are really hot in Lovers in Japan and ETIAW. But Strawberry Swing is amazing!! And Paradise is such a cute story!
A video for Charlie Brown would be awesome tho!!!

coldplayisawesome · 01-12-2011, 04:13 AM

the Talk video might be my favorite...

it is really hard to decide!

i do love all of the ones Mat Whitecross directed, though...

but the Talk video is space-y and has a giant robot, so that one wins.

coldplayhebe12 · 01-12-2011, 04:33 AM

TALK!
ARRRRRGGG How could I forget? That was one of the first ones that I saw!

But yeah, the giant robot always wins

purplemonkeyz232 · 01-12-2011, 05:08 AM

d^^ Agreeing with you guys. Talk is pretty epic!

lefter · 01-12-2011, 06:13 AM
