Just months after Coldplay released their #1 debut album, Parachutes, in England, they were hailed as Band of the Year 2000 in the music press. How did these four college friends become the poster children for a nation's emotions? It may have happened at the speed of light, but it wasn't as easy as it seems. Coldplay secured a permanent position in Britain's music elite by writing beautiful, simple songs that gently pulled at the heartstrings of a nation. Somewhere in between the confident, vulnerable guitar playing of Jonny Buckland, the melodic bassline of Guy Berryman, thoughtful drumming of Will Champion, and lead Chris Martin's stark, tenor vocals are answers for the soul. Although melancholy stands behind every Coldplay song, each one is also steeped in an More...

I personally don't care what it means, I tend to not give a crap in that area, but the lyrics of the song, as well as the AWESOME music, tunes, etc. Are AWESOME. Therefore, by the power vested in me by the State of Wintram, I give the Coldplay song "Viva la Vida" a AWESOME out of good. As in 100/10. Excellent, keep up the good work, especially since I find I am getting bored lately. "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity." ~ Ellen Parr Love it | Reviewer: Alma ------ About the song Viva la Vida performed by Coldplay I'm not wuite sure about the meaning either. A lot of what was stated makes sense. The first time I heard "revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate" I thought of St. John the Baptist, who was beheaded and his head was presented on a silver plate to the daughter of King Herod who granted her any wish she desired for dancing for him and his guests (she requested St. John's head for his condemnation of their family affairs) . It led me to believe that this song is about no war in particular, perhaps no specific time period, but maybe referring to death and martyrdom through the eyes of death and the struggle with church and state, in a time where this overtook the world. Almost as if impending death in singing. Feeling fear in enemies eyes in battle..etc. Anyways, no matter how you look at it and interpret it, Coldplay has done an excellent job making us think!!!! Love it! Jared, I feel the same! | Reviewer: Kyle ------ About the song Death and All His Friends performed by Coldplay Death and all his Friends is my most favorite song on the WHOLE album. It gives me chills and I just love the whole thing, its so perfectly put together I just cannot imagine a more perfect harmony and melody. The Fountain | Reviewer: milana ------ About the song The Scientist performed by Coldplay This song reminds me so much of the movie "The Fountain"... a scientist in agony, trying to save his love, wishing he could go back to the start, have more time to save her. ahh! i've loved this song for years, and just saw the movie a few weeks ago. this song perfectly fits that movie! has anyone else seen it? don't you agree?! feeling empty | Reviewer: pacific ------ About the song Fix You performed by Coldplay wen i listened to this song..1st time i felt as if i m hearing god,s voice ..so motivating so peaceful...each word a pearl..sometimes we need some special voice ,some special words , this song heels .it really heels...kudos to coldplay...best song ever A song that moves you | Reviewer: Nico ------ About the song The Scientist performed by Coldplay The first time I heard this song was when I was searching Google for songs your heart stops beating for a while when you hear them. I found The Scientist. At this moment, I've bought all their albums... Wonderful!!! | Reviewer: Grace ------ About the song Square One performed by Coldplay "Is there anybody out there who is lost and hurt and lonely too Are they bleeding all your colours into one And if you come undone as if you'd been run through Some catapult that fired you You wonder if your chance will ever come Or if you're stuck in square one". His voice, his style, everything are soooooooo goood!! I definitely love it !!! Wonderful! The best things | Reviewer: Fabio ------ About the song Viva la Vida performed by Coldplay I think this song is very actually. The most people want only money, famous and power. But they have forgotten ,in the life, there are things most important like love, justice and peace. Great song! Remembered | Reviewer: Katie ------ About the song Clocks performed by Coldplay My Dad always used to listen to Coldplay when i was little. I'm only 13 but I've started to like them lots, even if it used to drive me crazy when i was small, having to listen to songs played at full blast in a boiling car while you've got a headache isn't exactly a 5 year old's idea of fun. My dad went off Coldplay and started listening to U2 and Oasis, so i forgot all about Coldplay. I recently heard one of their songs on the music channels on Sky, however, and asked my Dad to borrow his old albums. i hadnt heard this song for at least 6 years and was amazed at myself when i just started singing along. The lyrics had probably been etched into my brain I'd listened to them played so loud. My Dad was surprised too. He's never been able to remember any lyrics, but i thought it was great when i went ot check the lyrics on here and found I'd remembered every single word! Love Song | Reviewer: Pakario ------ About the song Strawberry Swing performed by Coldplay i don't know why it reminds me when i was in love with a girl that i could give my life for her, and it reminds me how I felt when everything was perfect and our lives were just curved away, different form other people, our lives were such a perfect paradise where was a strawberry Swing... now that love ... I lost her and that's why i will never find a girl like her she was so special, now they sky could be blue i dont mind without her its a waste of time ...i cry every time i hear this amazing song King Herod | Reviewer: ken earl ------ About the song Viva la Vida performed by Coldplay I believe this song ia about King Herod,who sent Jesus to death and later succeded Ceasar after his assination. The Jews called him a puppet and he turned into a terrible person killing many, Thats why he says that he knows St Peter wont call his name. If you google King Herod,many things in the lyrics of the song coincide with his life explained the kingdom | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song 'Til Kingdom Come performed by Coldplay this is a very spiritual song to do with Jesus for me. God is our judge but when Jesus returns to earth he will replace God's responsibilities and be the judge, the king. This makes me think of adult baptism and the person I strive to be. Best of Coldplay without a doubt!!!! | Reviewer: Joyce Dutrisac ------ About the song Viva la Vida performed by Coldplay The lyrics to this song go way beyond kings and ruling the world or religion. It is very deep and I agree with aicila loosing and acceptance is at its very core. Awesome lyrics, music and addictive as hell. I must have listened to it several hundreds of time already. Viva la Vida vs. Vive la Vida | Reviewer: Orlando Lopez ------ About the song Viva la Vida performed by Coldplay As a native spanish speaker, just want to point out that Viva la Vida does not translate as Live the Life. Vive la Vida would de the appropriate spanish wording for that. Viva la Vida (with an A at the end of the first word) is more of an exclamation of joy, it has no direct translation to english but it could be something similar to saying Hooray! La Vida!. Just wanted to point that out as trying to fit the meaning of the english sentence "Live the life" in the interpretation of these lyrics seems to be steering comments in a direction i personally feel have nothing to do with the song. Great song altogether. Reply to Raquel | Reviewer: Anon ------ About the song Warning Sign performed by Coldplay Thank you, I know that there are no accidents, and today I decided to look up these lyrics and found your post...it made me think and I know that I need to accept that the man I am with is amazing and that I should not look for warning signs, he has been a good friend and now we are a couple...Thanks for sharing your words about your story and I am happy his arms were still open for you OMG! | Reviewer: Mark ------ About the song Death and All His Friends performed by Coldplay This album is truly great, infact, it is infectious, the more u listen to it the more and more u like it. The quality of the music, the great lyrics and the way they are played all contribute to something special. This album has engraved coldplay into the stars as one of britain, and the worlds, best musicians. Eat ur heart out Beatles, the 21st century have our own iconic band....what a masterpiece! mystikal | Reviewer: mel ------ About the song Talk performed by Coldplay I think the lyrics are pretty simple. He's lost his brother or someone so close he calls his brother. Without this person, he feels lost and incomplete. He's made suicide attempts in order to meet him but hasn't succeeded. The advice he's decided to take is the advice he would give to him, if he was still alive. This person lives on in all of his songs and their lyrics. If you can't think of something you could live for, think of something you would die for a live for that. Brilliant | Reviewer: para ------ About the song Death and All His Friends performed by Coldplay The best thing about Coldplay is that all the songs are different and if you hear a song for the first time you know that it is Coldplay. Unique! I can't name any other artist/group who come close to Coldplay. Best song by Coldplay | Reviewer: Leslie ------ About the song Sparks performed by Coldplay Personally, this song is the best by Coldplay. Sure, boy loses girl. Girl gets away. It's the same stuff over and over, but the "Oh"'s are an expression of both pain AND being speechless in front of a beautiful girl. He's always looking out for her, no matter what she does. Armour | Reviewer: Emelie ------ About the song Violet Hill performed by Coldplay as someone else before me said, I had thought the lyrics were "bury me in armour", and not honour, at the end of the second verse. And following it, at the very end of the second verse, it does not quite sound like "a love back home unfolds". Maybe it's just me, but my friends have noticed it as well. I tell myself it's armour because that is just so much more powerful, we are preparing for the battle over our soul that follows death. Violet Hill has got to be one of my most favourite songs of this album.
