The song is brilliant. The video is meh. For a song that strong sounding, they could have done a much better job at this. Remember when music video's were entertaining? At least musicians like Lykke Li understand that.
THE WORST NOTHIN BUDGET FLICK EVER!! they could have dont so much with the melody, so disappointing, coldplay puts on a shitty performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
….just letting you know……..
Screw Coldplay. After they said that their first album was the worst thing ever and dissed every fan who held that record close to their heart, they deserve no love. And screw Chris Martin. When is he NOT complaining about being adored? Go wank to your own 'introspective misery' you stupid bastards!
I love it! Already have tickets for their Vegas show in July
Total U2 homage. I like it.
a great one! heard three of their new tracks on lastfm. and they are great and fun, and not boring like a lot of their other songs.
It's very good!!!
Re: Nikki –
Thoroughly agreed!
coldplay? I love Coldplay!
Enjoy my sweetie! Who I owe $51 too! HA!
CRAP
More upbeat for Coldplay that's for sure. I dig it! Definitly a different direction than X&Y. I LOVED X&Y though
Videos are stupid. Just play music.
$5.00 video, .50¢ editing, and same old crap music they did last time that everyone ended up getting sick of in two weeks after hearing it in every elevator on earth. shite.
i love it
i love it
i love it
Love it. love them, but Chris Martin needs a good Orthodontist
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BAND!!! AGAIN, AN AMAZING SONG AND VIDEO!!! Cheers!!! Gweneth must be keeping her man HAPPY!!!
coldplay never have and never will ever go wrong..they are seriously untouchable..so amazing..
lets say alittle like our pink gay friend perez baby!!
I LOOOOOOOVE IT! Although, I liked the video with the dancing politicians a lot… But this is great too! And the song is…. magnificent….
i like this song very much… it sounds very OTH-ish
perfection.
the whole thing is perfection.
COLDPLAY FUCKIN ROCKS…..I LOVE THIS SONG…
people need to shut the fuck about "theyve lost their talent, theyve lost their touch". just because YOU dont like it, doesnt mean someone else doesnt love it. I"m sick of hearing about how coldplay or weezer or whoever "now sucks"… theyre just different, and theyre moving on and trying new things. iwouldnt buy an album if it sounded exactly like parachutes or pinkerton because GUESS WHAT i already own them both.
ohhhh incredible!!
LOVE ITTTTTTTTTTTTT
It's classic Coldplay…It's what I was hoping for =)
LOVE THE VIDEO!! it's so indie/alt rock and i love it!
ewww… sounds like a phil collins ripoff
Better than their previous HORSE SHIT. But they are still VERY over rated.
Drab, Drab, Drab…and Gloomy!
Very Pink Floyd
They could have done something so creative for this song…oh, well…Coldplay ceases to amaze me with how they are one of the most medicore-yet-famous bands. (I thought Chris was going to hit his head on that rock at the very end…THAT would have been something…) ;(
Sounds like another Pink Floyd rip-off….like most Coldplay.
it's good but it's not too original. i guess coldplay isn't super original, but i still really like them.
That Sucks. Their last album only had two good songs. Stop trying to be the Beatles / U2 and get back to your basics.
corny as hell! total douche chills silliness—seems like something really bad and embarrassing video-wise from the early 80s when music stars didn't know any better!!!
Re: Melanie – We have noticed!!!!!! It's called a tooth brush and tooth paste. It doesn't hurt. personal hyg is a good thing. You ugly ass pale tea sipping boring plain vanilla monty python retards ought to try it. It can't hurt. Ugly gap toothed chipped up yellow teeth whore. you probably think Any Wino has a beautiful set of choppers. Slag
His vocals were overpowered by the production. The ending was well done. Wish I could have heard more of him. By the way, he does look hot in this video.
SONG'S GREAT
VIDEO SUCKS
Coldplay will always be amazing. They are classic.
flaming lips flash back
I love it.

brilliance
Rather pretentious isn't it?
It's Violet Hill (singular) and it's f-ing awesome.
Absolute perfection. I love that they play it all the time on 98-7 in L.A. I love Death Cab 4 Cutie too!
Isnt it called Violet Hill not Hills??? well i didnt like it at all the first few times i heard it but the more i hear it, little by little i like it.
i think its very obvious that U2 producer worked on coldplays new stuff.
Re: Tone – They are not overrated. Yes the video could've been better but that's how it is….live with it….all of you who are cursing and so disappointed….
I actually like it! Very Velvet Goldmine-y! Sweet song. The lead singer-dude, Gwyneth's husband is clearly a major ego freak though, craves attention like a muthafucker, he's a rockstar though so I guess it's a fait accompli.
BRILLIANT SONG. BRILLIANT BAND.
violet hill. not hills.
i was bored, that was dull, the song sounded old and the video was not catchy
That was thick! The song and colplay are amazing. nuf said.
forgettable
The first part sounds a lot like Billy Bragg to me.
its not violet hills its violet hill* singular. loves it.
LOVEEEEEE COLDPLAY!!!!
I'm seeing them in Miami and Orlando this year!!! Can't wait!!
um…the song is called Violet Hill
This is the kind of boring, uninspired crap Rolling Stone would rave about.
Beautiful!!!
Okay, so this explains where his daughter got her nasty teeth from, but I still don't know how she ended up with the Marty Feldman eyes.
shroom tastic! … they kind of copied that one famous guy (i forget the guys name but he was some famous rocker druggie) and it was a home video of his first time on shrooms …
Re: sarah –
ME TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
=)
;)
loved IT!! Chris looks hot!!
1. BOoOOOOOoRING VIDEO!!
2. Chris needs a haircut!!!!
this is a copy of U2's new years day…but without the snow and the horses but same idea….as much as a like coldplay this song and video only proves that U2 are still "the band to beat" and coldplay haven't come close to them yet….maybe next album
This is actually the first time i have listened to Colplay without it sounding like nails on a blackboard. I LIKE IT!
brilliant!!!
the song is awesome - but the vid looks exactly like the beatles
god chris martain is hott
Ummm…
Usually love their videos. Not so keen on this one!
The song is great tho!
wow. Even they look bored.
You should watch the other Violet Hill video, posted on coldplay.com. Also can be found at youtube by name Coldplay Violet Hill Dancing Politicians
It's WAY better
Pink Floyd all over!!!! They stole it !!! (The video not the song)
Has a little bit of a Todd Rundgren look to it.
i'm unimpressed with this song.
it's not as good as the parachutes album at all.
i was really looking foward to their comeback…
i've heard one of the new tracks off the album, i can't remember what it's called but it's fantastic, so i will still be buying the album when it's out.
IIIIIIIIIII LUUUUUUV IT!!! Well Done C.M and rest!!!
Love it as always!
niiiice
the song is hot the video isn't
When expectations are as high as they are for Coldplay, they either need to show up in a big way or not bother at all. This video looks like it cost nothing and took an afternoon to shoot. I like the song, but the video is a cheap, meandering mess.
Next time, they should at least make an effort. Its not like they can't afford it.
what a wondeful video…thanks for this new track…i absolutely love it…and chris is still the sexiest amn alive…….don t you think????
Loving their new stuff! 'Viva la Vida' is a great track too and the bits of 'Lost' that have been played during an interview was brilliant. Can't wait for the album.
Keep the Coldplay updates coming, Perez!
sounds like genesis
Looks more like a "Fool On The Hill" type at first.
self important libbie rock - a big snoooze - boring music from a boring man who had one hit with a hook - clocks - and they've yet to do anything as good
amazzzing.
yhey announced them already
wow that was really hot.
tht song and video are amazing
they all look really good
no hook. sucks.
I love it! very coolio!!!!!!!!
F*ing AWESOME. Love Coldplay!! Thanks for not being generic (=
very beatles-esque. nicely done.
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!!!!
I loved the old Coldplay and this song is good. Especially the last part.
Not a huge fan of the video but the song is AMAZING
Twee twee twee.
VERY GOOD GUMMISNODD!
this is great video and amazing band, i love all songs of coldplay
I-LOVE-COLDPLAY
