Woo! New Coldplay video! I just saw it on Much. It's pretty good, too.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

It's black and white. It starts off with the band in a dark room. You can only see a little bit of them.

Then it goes to a businessman walking down the street. He bumps into a guy who is in a suit, but has no shoes.

He continues on his way (band shots are now in a well-lit room, Chris has something written on his hand again) then suddenly drops his briefcase. He tries to pick it up, but his hand just passes through it. His hand then completely disappears.

He continues on, briefcase in his other hand, to a meeting in a restaurant. He's pretty freaked out, obviously. At the meeting, he picks up his glass of water, but his other hand disappears, and he drops the glass.

He then goes into the washroom, staring at the mirror. Then he sticks his non-existant hands into his pockets, and runs out of the restaurant. He runs down the street, as band shots are shown continually. Then he lays/falls down on some cousions (sp?) that were thrown out on the sidewalk. He starts to freak out, twisting and convulsing. As the song ends, you see his head (and the rest of his body under his suit) disappear. And after the song is over, the suit slowly falls in on itself.

I really like this video. You can see it on the MM site.

I just read that Chris Martin got arrested in Australlia for vandalising a journalist's car. What a guy, lol

I should warn you that the singles are the most "rock"ish songs. The others are mostly more mellow.

Acoustic. It's great. :nod:

Go download some tunes first, if you want.

Some great non-singles...

Shiver
Politik
Daylight
A Rush of Blood to the Head

That is, of course, just a small sampling. But it will give you a good idea, along with the singles that you've probably heard (Yellow, Trouble, In My Place, GPaSUYF, The Scientist (:drool:) and Clocks)
