*Listen to my band: www.soundcloud.com/byebyeday Thanks!* This is the best performance of coldplay. in my opinion. Absolutely brilliant version! Coldplay - Spies
this is so so so good. i really miss the old coldplay :( miss them when they were more real, and when not EVERYONE "loved" them. i think about it everywhere i listen to 'parachutes' and 'a rush of blood to the head'. but i agree. this is probably one of their top 5 performances. :)
What makes coldplay great is that their songs are so simple, and they just know how to give a good performance. The introduction is incredible and above all original
@leatspawn distorsion. delay and reverb probably both set to infinite at the begenning for the intro. just delay (but not set to infinite anymore) during the rest of the song. ebow at the end to get infinite sustain with the glass slide.
OMG. It is a masterpiece. I love all their music, but I don understand why some people are against change, In fact I don´t think they have changed, just they have been to a lot of places in the world and they want to bring new cultures and sounds to their albums.
Wow. What a gem, this is my favorite Coldplay performance so far! I swear if I blur my eyes and cock my head to the side, I'd think I was hearing/watching a Radiohead performance (which of course is the highest compliment I've got to give). That was a treat.
glass slides have a darker sound (less bright and metallic) compared to metal slides. the black thing is an ebow, a device that magnetically vibrates the string.
oh god this is amazing, this is one of the songs that changed my life and I really wish I was there... I've seen coldplay live 4 times but they never played this one... thank you for this video
I thought so too. Not too long ago. :D So I can't blame you really. They were all I listened to whole day long. But then I started studying music and listening to older stuff.
i dont know if its about china or what not. but for me, personally this whole album is like a pat on the back when you really need it. especially those last twist to the lyrics.
Jonny utiliza un slide de vidrio en conjunto con un ebow. El ebow le ayuda a sostener la vibración de la cuerda sin atacarla de ninguna manera. Asi, la nota suena limpia, sin ningun tipo de ruído.
