This version is scary beautiful. Warning Sign was one of the first Coldplay songs I'd ever started to like, then from there, I just went berserk and am OBSESSED with them. They are my entire life. And although I totally support their new album and theme, I too miss the days when they dressed in casual clothes and made absolutely incredible music without any led lights or graffiti. Coming from a 12 year old.
This is the real Coldplay in all its glory. Don't get me wrong, some songs of the newest albums are really good, but that's not the real spirit of what Coldplay is. THIS is what Coldplay's true essence is about. Simple songs, made not for bragging about how good musicians they are, not to gain popular attention, or to be the 1st place of the most listened bands of the world; this is music for the soul, that reaches the deepest spot of your mind and makes it fall in love with their simple chords and lyrics which charm the very last one of your neurons; That's what the Real Coldplay was about, and they have lost all their Magic, Lyrics and Beauty. What a shame. Edit: I posted this commentary about 4 years ago. By that time, Coldplay's latest release was A Head Full of Dreams and I only liked 2-3 songs from it. For those who say "I'm not a real Coldplay fan" or "I have no idea what I'm talking about", most people agree that Ghost Stories and AHFOD are Coldplay's weaker albums; I've read those commentaries multiple times here and there, I've talked with a lot of people about the topic and have rarely heard anything different, it's been pretty consistent over the years. I do not, by any means, hate the newest albums, I believe they're good for what they are; but compared to Parachutes, AROBTTH, X&Y and so on, they're just not that good and I don't believe that makes me less of a fan than anyone just for having a different opinion on the matter. And for the record, I absolutely adored Everyday Life in its entirety, and I am eager to listen to Music of the Spheres (even though I didn't like My Universe ft BTS).
Isaac Urias Johnny Buckland would disagree. Plus Chris Martin said they already made "that" album when he was asked if Coldplay would return to a Parachutes sound.
The first 3 albums of Coldplay were complete magic. My top 3 favourite Coldplay songs have always been Warning Sign, Moses, and Amsterdam. With that being said, a Rush of Blood to the Head is obviously my favourite Coldplay album. I think Coldplay has modernized so much to today’s pop genre that they have buried what made them great in the first place. I hope Coldplay keeps going and goes back to to their roots. Such a very talented band and no one can deny that.
Totally agree, but I lean X&Y. An entire era of perfection…but picking one seems cruel. The other two eras would be anyone else’s apex. I like Viva La Vida the album, but the tour introduced too many gimmicks. It was a slow decline from there for me.
I completely agree, but I would include Viva in that. It was different, but an incredible kind of different. Songs like 42, Violet Hill, and the ending of the album blow me away, but even then, X and Y is still my favorite album. Today's Coldplay is just trying to stay relevant instead of making top notch music. And the truth is......THAT I MISS THEEEEMM SOOOO....
Miss this Coldplay, I remember first hearing them in 2001 for the first time. I was hooked, I ended up buying all the albums up until mylo. This song brings back good memories from my past, when my grandfather was alive.
A warning sign I missed the good part, then I realized I started looking and the bubble burst I started looking for excuses Come on in I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones That I started looking for a warning sign When the truth is I miss you Yeah the truth is That I miss you so A warning sign It came back to haunt me, and I realized That you were an island and I passed you by When you were an island to discover Come on in I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones That I started looking for a warning sign When the truth is I miss you Yeah the truth is That I miss you so And I'm tired I should not have let you go So I crawl back into your open arms Yes I crawl back into your open arms And I crawl back into your open arms Yes I crawl back into your open arms
this song is an obvious scar event in his life which he decided to write about. I saw him sing this Live in Edmonton a few year back and he broke down in tears at the end of it. I sure wish he'd write more stuff from the heart and less fluff that he's been doing in the last few years
Brian Jacobsen I broke down in tears for a couple of years, every time I heard that song. I still love her but I made process. Today I listen to that song with a smile on my face. This is pure love. Ivy I'm sorry for hurting you for years, my ego is gone now, all the best and tons of love for your life. Thank you Coldplay for the most touching song ever made!
Wow. This just shows how much heart and emotion Coldplay puts into their music. We feel what Chris feels when he sings. We feel what they all feel when deep, dark chords and sounds piece together like in this song. It's just an experience to listen to Coldplay.
Chris said it in an interview that all he wants to spread is happiness, that's why he is trying hard to overcome all the dark phases of his life.cMaybe that's why we would never here these type of songs in concerts anymore. It's for his own good! Being a coldplay lover id never want him to fall in depression while singing these soulful song again.
What an amazing catalogue of songs, thank goodness they didn’t make the same album again and again, different moods need different albums, and we have them all to listen to when we want.
For me, this is the best non single coldplay love song ever. This change in the melody and on the album the guitar that sounds so dreamy. Not to forget the last "arms" which conveys the sound really well how to bring this sad thought to an end. Goosebumps 🤍
No sé como expresar la sensación que me da al escuchar esta canción. Es una de mis favoritas... es increíble. Y puedo escuchar y escuchar sin parar... me da escalofríos, emoción, ganas de seguir enamorada de la banda... es sencillamente perfecta, letras, melodías, toda!. ♥
A warning sign... I miss the old coldplay then i realize... I started looking for the older songs... I started looking for older albums... --- When the truth is... I miss you... Yeah the truth is... I miss you... Sooo...
This is one of my favourite songs of Coldplay. It's very special, and brings me a notalgic but cold feeling. It's very hard to explain. There are something in the way Chris sings it. I listen to this song since i was a kid. I miss this Coldplay so much.
even though coldplay kinda changed their sound a bit over the years, i mean their songs still sound the same in a way. like they still give you that same feeling of euphoria and sadness at the same time, even if its a little more produced or whatever. i for one am glad they've gotten this far along without having to change that much
Coldplay is my favorite band ever. They're just so amazing to me and their music is just so touching. I will say i like their old stuff better, but i'm still a fan of their new music too. I will forever be a fan of the best band in the world.
@madinthehead You're right.I think it's one of their most underrated songs.I remember seeing them live back in either it was 03 or 04 when they were touring for AROBTTH and all I kept thinking God I hope they play Warning Sign and they did! Love this song and love Coldplay,especially their first two albums.

Thank you! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. If MX was so bad, then why did Coldplay gain innumerable amounts of fans with Paradise and Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall? They're just amazing, no matter how much they explore :)
Esta cansion me hace transportar al pasado como si fuera que estoy en una máquina del tiempo mirando todo lo que se fue y recordando los mejores momentos ♡ solo coldplay puede hacer eso
They played this song in their very first concert in Mexico City (2003) and thanks to this song I kissed an argentinian lady I met in that concert . I never heard of her again . Regards Jessica, anywhere you are ❤
i think they give a really dos message here, the do good music, and if you are a really good fan you will like coldplay until this days, i love them and i never gona change that thing
Warning sign is my favorite song and A Rush of Blood to the Head is my favorite album! You know, I still LOVE Coldplay, but I miss the time that the guys just wore black clothes and made a terrific gig, being just themselves! Simplicity is the best!
