Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head (Live 2003)

[rossrparker]

Man, 2003 Coldplay live was something to behold. No glitz, no glamour, no costumes, just 4 guys, their instruments and some of their most powerful and emotional songs. Don't get me wrong, I really do still enjoy Coldplay nowadays, but I feel these older shows just had something so special about them - something so organic. I don't think they've written anything in the last few years which even comes near to the emotional depth that many of the songs off A Rush Of Blood To The Head possessed.

This song is the greatest Coldplay song, no question in my mind

[thefolkloric]

Parachutes, A Rush of Blood to The Head and X&Y... that's what Coldplay really is. Miss this old days.

[marccosta]

I'll always be in love with this sad, dark, simplistic era of Coldplay rather than the happy, colorful and presumptuous band that is right now.

[supernova]

I'm in love with Jonny's work. What a man.

[lisah]

If only the guitar solo was on the album recording.

[danielavigdor]

man that guitar solo just kicks you, so much reverb, so much feel...

[JukeboxJack]

Jonny Buckland on the guitar, Ladies and gents.

[callmeej]

3:15 Jonny's eerie slide solo is 11/10

2 observations - in 2020, this has aged WELL. Second, this album was DARK. I think people forget how dark it was. This was what people were listening to in 2003.

[jerome]

the moment you realized live version is mich better than studio version. goosebumps lol.

[neemo]

i cant stop replaying 3:08 jonny had me descended

[JariLiitolaPikkuApuri]

Still amazing after 17 years. I'd wish they would be more rock/ prog again instead of light pop.

[posthrdcore]

Was crazy about Coldplay before. Not many knows the band in my country and then BAM!

[oOhydroOo]

Can't stop listening this masterpiece.

[benedekgabor.]

The complete song is very haunting, especially with this guitar play. I wish that, they were record the song in this version.

[ttvdekkzr]

I wish more people could enjoy this music instead of the crap that's on the radio nowadays..

[claudiovesta]

Please Coldplay come back to this!
Simplicity is everything!

[AfterEightShave]

The sound of the dude playing slide guitar is genuinely one of the best guitar tones I’ve ever heard

[RECKLESSnYOUNG]

Crazy looking at the crowd and not seeing one cellphone out. Wish it was still like that.
