Coldplay 兩首單曲

Viva La Vida

歌詞

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
（itune 廣告，片段）

這首歌的曲當然很棒
不過他的歌詞真是OMG
從遜王的角度來歌頌民主

聽完這首歌
我只能說
英國流行音樂的深度
真不是膚淺的米國可以望其項背
當然啦
台灣的流行文化實在膚淺的可笑
真的連幫人家提鞋子的資格都沒有

第二首單曲

Violet Hill

Was a long and dark December

From the rooftops i remember

There was snow

White snow

Clearly i remember

From the windows they were watching

While we froze down below

When the future's architectured

By a carnival of idiots on show

You'd better lie low

If you love me

Won't you let me know?

Was a long and dark December

When the banks became cathedrals

And the fog

Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles

And went out to fit their rifles

And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in honor

When i'm dead and hit the ground

A love back home unfolds

If you love me

Won't you let me know?

(Guitar Solo)

I don't want to be a soldier

With the captain of some sinking ship

With snow, far below

So if you love me

Why'd you let me go?

I took my love down to violet hill

There we sat in snow

All that time she was silent still

So if you love me

Won't you let me know?

If you love me,

Won't you let me know?
