I'm going deaf at 36 years old.. soon I'll be completely engulfed in silence and I'll only have the memories of precious songs like these. May those memories never fade...

[gerylcerney]

I'm 82 and I think it would be splendid if you fellow Coldplay lovers would know this is my favorite band

[AppleAdvocate-ffom]

I don't know how to explain it. Coldplay transports me to another world—another dimension. Their music is so tastefully melancholy and profound. I think seeing them live would exceed any and all expectations.

[Henkebenke]

The best live performance of a Coldplay song. The best live performance of all time. Truly one of the most beautiful masterpieces.

[ryancross]

going to a Coldplay concert is officially on my bucket list.

If you’re still listening to this in 2024, you’re legend

[debasmitanandy]

At 3:45 when chris stops and guy starts the guitar riff with the red lights focusing on him it's such an amazing sight. That guitar riff just makes you feel something that i cannot describe in words.

I lost one of my dearest friends in 2011, aged 27. He adored Coldplay and this was played at his funeral. I've lost count the amount of times I've come here to think of him to be sad, happy and cry all in these 6 minutes. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. Miss you forever mate X

[abhijitdey]

Chris - "Everybody ok?"
Me - Yes, I'm crying.

Finally saw Coldplay live on Saturday, September 23rd, 2023 in Vancouver. My expectations were sky high and they were somehow met. Incredible band. Everyone should see them if you get the chance.

There are very few songs that perfectly describe the pain and sorrow of love gone wrong.

This is one of them.

[otoufubun]

no drugs, no gossips, no affairs, pure and clean, and that is COLDPLAY!

[ulmo]

There is a Coldplay-song for every feeling, beautiful! <3

[stephaniegloria]

"Everybody okay " gets me all the time. Of course I'm not but the music is making it better.

[abhiramraveendran]

Coldplay songs are like a light at the end of a tunnel. i cant even describe how they got me through my tough times, filled me with positivity.

[sathyennaidoo]

In a world full of chaos, I always come back to Coldplay.

[markgarger]

This song should win every award there is or was ever made so brillanty written incredible l am at a loss for words

LETRA:

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

at 36 years old, I remember having this CD in my car and driving through Hackensack NJ with my girlfriend "CC" when I was a young man of 18. I remember recognizing the meaning of the lyrics before our prime.
I remember holding her hand and looking into her deep Irish green eyes at a stoplight on a Saturday Night.
"I had to find you to set you apart"
and saying
 "Nobody said it would be easy, its such a shame for us to part"

She was my HS Sweetheart and I knew it wasn't meant to be-

Many decades later I still miss you CC. I know you are happy with someone else now. But I still remember that moment at a stoplight in our teens. no bills. no cares. nothing else holding us back
just your green eyes and your Irish red hair.
