MOTO XYLOTO - THE COLDPLAY - Марафон закончен

MOTO XYLOTO - THE COLDPLAY
Завтра, 24 октября 2011 г. - событие в творческой жизни группы The Coldplay - выходит новый альбом - 'Mylo Xyloto', в который включены в числе других песни 'Every Teardrop is a Waterfall', 'Paradise'.

I turn the music up, I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
Until Monday morning feels another life
I turn the music up
I'm on a roll this time
And heaven is in sight
I turn the music up, I got my records on
From underneath the rubble sing a rebel song
Don't want to see another generation drop
I'd rather be a comma than a full stop
Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees
Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart
As we saw oh this light I swear you, emerge blinking into
To tell me it's alright
As we soar walls, every siren is a symphony
And every tear's a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Oh
Is a waterfall
Oh oh oh
Is a is a waterfall
Every tear
Is a waterfall
Oh oh oh
So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But still I'll raise the flag
Oh
It was a wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall
A wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall
Every tear
Every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall

Boy your lovin’ is all I think about

Strawberry Swing - The Coldplay - 7-й день марафона

В 2009 г. группа The Coldplay выезжает на очередные гастроли, на этот раз на Ближний Восток. На концертах исполняется песня 'Strawberry Swing'




They were sitting
They were sitting on the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious
They were sitting
They were talking under strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing
Cold, cold water bring me round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what ya say?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day
I remember
We were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing 
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna curve away?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day
Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time
Could be blue,
Could be grey
Without you I’m just miles away
Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time 

 

Viva La Vida - The Coldplay - 6-й день марафона

В 2008 г. выходит очередной альбом 'Viva La Vida', в который в числе других вошла одноименная песня, а также 'Violet Hill'.





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 are 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
And that was when I ruled the world
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 are 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
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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
 

What if - The Coldplay - 5-й день марафона

Сегодня - песня 'What if'.


What if there was no light.
Nothing wrong, nothing right.
What if there was no time?
And no reason or rhyme?
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side.
That you don't want me there in your life.
What if I got it wrong?
And no poem or song..
Could put right what I got wrong,
Or make you feel I belong
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life.
Oooooh, that's right
Let's take a breath, jump over the side.
Oooooh, that's right
How can you know it if you don't even try?
Oooooh, that's right
Every step that you take
Could be your biggest mistake
It could bend or it could break
But that's the risk that you take
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there in your life.
That you don't want me there by your side.
Oooooh, that's right
Let's take a breath jump over the side.
Oooooh, that's right
How can you know it when you don't even try?
Oooooh, that's right
Oooooh, that's right
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Oooooh, that's right
You know that darkness always turns into light
Oooooh, that's right..
 

The Hardest Part - The Coldplay - 4-й день марафона

The Coldplay - Moto Xyloto
В 2006 г. выходит очередной хит группы - 'The Hardest Part'.
В 2007 г. с большим успехом проходят гастроли в Южной Америке.



And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
Bittersweet, I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out
And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
You really broke my heart
And I tried to sing
But I couldn’t think of anything
And that was the hardest part
I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're a silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it’s all about
I wonder what it’s all about
Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it's just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh and it’s the hardest part
That’s the hardest part
Yeah that’s the hardest part
That’s the hardest part

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?
Where To, where do I go?
If you never try, then you'll never know.
How long do I have to climb,
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?
Look up, I look up at night,
Planets are moving at the speed of light.
Climb up, up in the trees,
every chance that you get,
is a chance you seize.
How long am I gonna stand,
with my head stuck under the sand?
I'll start before I can stop,
before I see things the right way up.
All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand?Ideas that you'll never find,
All the inventors could never design.
The buildings that you put up,
Japan and China all lit up.
The sign that I couldn't read,
or a light that I couldn't see,
some things you have to believe,
but others are puzzles, puzzling me.
All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah when you see it then you'll understand?
All those signs, I knew what they meant.
Some things you can invent.
Some get made, and some get sent,
Ooh?
Birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah, when you see it then you'll understand?

Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow
Your skin

Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so
I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh all the things you do
Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all yellow
Your skin

For you I bleed myself dry
Its true look how they shine for you

look how they shine for you
look how they shine
look at the stars look how they shine for you 
 

See You Soon - The Coldplay - 1-й день марафона

The Coldplay - Moto Xyloto
Английская группа альтернативного рока The Coldplay была создана в 1996 г. двумя студентами колледжа Лондонского университета Крисом Мартином и Джоном Бакландом. Позднее к ним присоединились Уилл Чемпион и Гай Берримен, образовав таким образом традиционный квартет. В октябре 1997 г. музыканты впервые появились на публике - в центре Лондона, на станции метро Ковент-Гарден, где смогли спеть только две песни из репертуара группы The Beatles, поскольку их быстро прогнала полиция. А уже через 3 месяца, в феврале 1998 г. состоялся первый концерт The Coldplay в Дублинском замке, в мае 1998 г. впервые на профессиональной студии был записан мини-альбом 'Safety EP' с трэком 'Bigger Stronger', тираж которого составил всего 500 экземпляров. И уже в этой песне звучат свойственные этой группе лирические интонации.  В феврале 1999 г. национальное телевидение показывает короткий ролик о новой группе, и это было прорывом. Тогда же их приглашают на студию ВВС. В апреле музыканты записывают новый мини-альбом с песней 'Brothers & Sisters', которая вошла в золотой фонд группы. В этом же году подписан контракты со звукозаписывающей студией и издательской компанией, появляются публикации в средствах массовой информации. В октябре 1999 г. записана новая песня - 'See you soon'.



So you lost your trust
& you never should have
No you never should have
But don't break your back if you ever hear this
But don't answer that
Cause in a bullet-prove vest
With the windows all closed
I'll be doing my best
& I'll see you soon
In a telescope lens
& when all you want is friends
I'll see you soon

 
So they came for you
They come snapping at your heels
They come snapping at your heels
But don't break your back if you ever hear this
But don't answer that
Cause in a bullet-prove vest
With the windows all closed
I'll be doing my best
& I'll see you soon
In a telescope lens
& when all you want is friends
I'll see you soon
Noo you lost your trust

Send me an angel - The Scorpions


 The wise man said just walk this way
 To the dawn of the light
 The wind will blow into your face
 As the years pass you by
 Hear this voice from deep inside
 It's the call of your heart
 Close your eyes and your will find
 The way out of the dark

 Here I am
 Will you send me an angel
 Here I am
 In the land of the morning star

 The wise man said just find your place
 In the eye of the storm
 Seek the roses along the way
 Just beware of the thorns

 Here I am
 Will you send me an angel
 Here I am
 In the land of the morning star

 The wise man said just raise your hand
 And reach out for the spell
 Find the door to the promised land
 Just believe in yourself
 Hear this voice from deep inside
 It's the call of your heart
 Close your eyes and your will find
 The way out of the dark

 Here I am
 Will you send me an angel
 Here I am
 In the land of the morning star
 Here I am
 Will you send me an angel
 Here I am
 In the land of the morning star
 

Never say never - Justin Bieber


 (Never say never)
 See I never thought that I could walk through fire
 I never thought that I could take the burn
 I never had the strength to take it higher
 Until I reached the point of no return

 And there's just no turning back
 When your hearts under attack
 Gonna give everything I have
 It's my destiny

 I will never say never! (I will fight)
 I will fight till forever! (make it right)
 Whenever you knock me down
 I will not stay on the ground
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up up up
 And never say never

 Ne-Never say never(Never)
 Ne-Never say never(Never)
 Ne-Never say never(Never)
 I never thought I could feel this power
 I never thought that I could feel this free
 I'm strong enough to climb the highest tower
 And I'm fast enough to run across the sea

 And there's just no turning back
 When your hearts under attack
 Gonna give everything I have
 'cause this is my destiny

 I will never say never! (I will fight)
 I will fight till forever! (make it right)
 Whenever you knock me down
 I will not stay on the ground
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up, up, up
 And never say never

 Here we go!
 Guess who?
 JSmith and Jb!
 I gotcha lil bro
 I can handle him
 Hold up, aight?
 I can handle him

 Now he's bigger than me
 Taller than me
 And he's older than me
 And stronger than me
 And his arms a little bit longer than me
 But he ain't on a JB song with me!

 I be trying a chill
 They be trying to sour the thrill
 No pun intended, was raised by the power of Will

 Like Luke with the force, when push comes to shove
 Like Kobe in the 4th, ice water with blood

 I gotta be the best, and yes
 We're the flyest
 Like David and Goliath
 I conquered the giant
 So now I got the world in my hand
 I was born from two stars
 So the moon's where I land

 I will never say never! (I will fight)
 I will fight till forever! (make it right)
 Whenever you knock me down
 I will not stay on the ground
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up
 Pick it up, up, up
 And never say never

Emotions - Mariah Carey


 You've got me feeling emotions
 Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
 You've got me feeling emotions
 Higher than the heavens above

 I feel good
 I feel nice
 I've never felt so
 Satisfied
 I'm in love
 I'm alive
 Intoxicated
 Flying high
 It feels like a dream
 When you touch me tenderly
 I don't know if it's real
 But I like the way I feel
 Inside

 In the morning
 When I rise
 You are the first thing
 On my mind
 And in the middle
 Of the night
 I feel your heartbeat
 Next to mine
 If feels like a dream
 When you love me tenderly
 I don't know if you're for real
 But I like the way I feel
 Inside

 You know the way to make me lose control
 When you're looking into my eyes
 You make me feel so
 High

Slave to love - Brian Ferry


 Tell her I'll be waiting
 in the usual place
 with the tired and weary
 and there's no escape.

 To need a woman
 you've got to know
 how the strong get weak
 and the rich get poor.

 Slave to love
 Oh Oh
 Slave to love

 You're running with me
 don't touch the ground
 we're the restless hearted
 not the chained and bound.

 The sky is burning
 a sea of flame
 though your world is changing
 I will be the same.

 Slave to love
 oh oh
 Slave to love
 Slave to love
 na na na na
 na na na na
 And I can't escape
 I'm a slave to love

 Can you help me?
 Oh oh
 Can you help me?

 The storm is breaking
 or so it seems
 we're too young to reason
 too grown to dream.

 Now spring is turning
 your face to mine
 I can hear your laughter
 I can see your smile.

 Slave to love
 na na na na
 na na na na
 And I can't escape
 I'm a slave to love. 

Holiday - The Scorpions



Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange the cold days for the sun
A good time and fun
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday 

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday 

Exchange your troubles for some love
Wherever you are
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday 

Longing for the sun you will come
To the island without name
Longing for the sun be welcome
On the island many miles away from home
Be welcome on the island without name
Longing for the sun you will come
To the island many miles away from home
