Man, 2003 Coldplay live was something to behold. No glitz, no glamour, no costumes, just 4 guys, their instruments and some of their most powerful and emotional songs. Don't get me wrong, I really do still enjoy Coldplay nowadays, but I feel these older shows just had something so special about them - something so organic. I don't think they've written anything in the last few years which even comes near to the emotional depth that many of the songs off A Rush Of Blood To The Head possessed.
Ross Parker I totally get you man I feel the same. I've loved coldplay's recent work, tbh some I needed to adjust to but I retract to this concert and I'm reminded what it first was like viewing and listening to this euphoric experience. Their live sound was top notch! Still is I've seen them three times live but I so wish I could revisit this concert in person. To me this is their best passionate and emotional performance
I used to agree with this. Chris martin said in an old interview that he wants to make people happy most of all. I think that's good. You don't like it, then don't listen. I'm personally not a huge fan either. But be happy for other people, no need to criticize everything you don't like. "cus in the end There's only love"
@@jack-uv6mt You know what a comment section is? A place where people can share their thoughts, opinions or feelings and if I feel the need to express it I'll do it. I don't listen their mainstream music but I will write my opinions whenever I f want...wtf is wrong with people?
I saw them when they first started over 20 years ago. Under a big tent in Boston Harbor. They were amazing. Johnny threw me his guitar pick. I gave it to the lady I knocked over to catch it.
2 observations - in 2020, this has aged WELL. Second, this album was DARK. I think people forget how dark it was. This was what people were listening to in 2003.
wasnt the album a response to 911 and the political climate in the early noughties? also singing about his insecurities quite normal for a sensitive, young soul, dont you think? (:
I absolutely miss this Coldplay era It meant so much to me in my childhood Used to listen 'talk' watching the stars in the garden before sleep I'll never forget
I listen to this with almost heartbreak. Coldplay have obviously evolved and FairPlay to em. I wish em all the best. But nothing tops what they were!! Unbelievable emotionally heart wrenching lyrics rockstars.
I've been to their AHFOD tour last April and yeah, that was one of the best nights of my life. But upon hearing and watching this, I couldn't help but wish I could go back in time to witness this live - where there were no phones raising up, only thousands of pairs of ears listening to this real, authentic, and emotional performance. This is incomparable.
Oh, man! If you ever look for a thing/moment/place/anything who can explain what the most ruthless nostalgia feels like, is the Old Coldplay. It's like to remember how happy you was with your ex GF or former friends in the past. You know they are still out there. They are not dead. Maybe you can visit them, call them or send them a message, but you know there's no way things are going to be the same again. There's no way to turn back time. We know that Old Coldplay will never come back. Probably there are dozens of amazing songs that we never will listen live again. We know they are still out there, and at the same time we know it never gonna be the same again.
This is my favorite song of all time, and my wife and I danced to it towards the end of the night at our wedding reception. It will always be a beautiful memory for me.
I don't care if these type of songs didn't attract the massive amount of people that My Universe does but it was the kind of songs that fascinated me from Coldplay 🥰😍
Sloer Meutel we are out there man. Just because we aren't posting on TH-cam videos doesn't mean we aren't out there. I've showed this concert to many friends and new friends and they say it's touched them. For me this entire performance words don't do it justice. You listen and just let go wherever it may take you, euphoria
@@JP-ut6gd I agree. Their sound since "Every teardrop..." started their inevitable decline. It is almost the same story with Muse since that Twilight song.
I was so lucky to hear this great song on the AHFOD tour, foro sol 2016, Mexico City . I started notice that I was the only one on my section singing the whole song. It was beautiful! : , )
I really wish this song was used in Joker's ending scene, as he's in the police car looking at all the chaos. I mean, lyrics like "I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn, do back all the things it did to you in return" and "I'm gonna buy a gonna gun and start a war" just describe the moment perfectly. All that chaos started with Arthur having a gun, and he got back at the city for everything he went through in there. I feel like it's that there's a kind of peace in chaos that very few things in life can transmit, but this song and that scene really achieve it!
Después de mucho mucho tiempo de no escuchar esta canción la recordé no se porque y aquí estoy sintiendo escalofríos como la primera vez que la escuché! Para mí la mejor canción del live 2003, es una joya!!
Yeah i saw them this October here in San Diego, crowd was fucking garbage, i was jumping up and down while everyone else was standing with their phones out, even Will complained at some point about it, Chris had to tell everyone to put their phones down
de todas sus canciones.... esta es la mejor... es la esencia misma de la música británica así tan agobiante, tan depresiva, tan under, con ese solo de guitarra, que te manda a la lona una y otra vez. ..... UN TEMON...que bueno que esta canción no sea comercial..... Saludos
“So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane; When am I gonna see that pretty face again; Meet me on the road, meet me where I said; Blame it all upon; A rush of blood to the head” 💓 (Ah. That rush of blood to the head. The craziness of love. And lust. The frantic beauty of falling hard...)
I miss the good old days when people really enjoy the concert instead of enjoying it through their phones :’( And this song is so beautifully written.. “He said I’m gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you could tell me something worth fighting for”
Imagine how poignant that was in 2002-3. The post 9/11 years. The Afghanistan years. The Bush/Blair years. I went to the London and Brighton gigs for this tour. I wish everyone got to experience Coldplay like this. ROBTTH is an undefeated Coldplay album.
I still can’t believe I got to see them play this song live 2 years ago when I went to their AHFOD tour in Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤️ best moment in the entire concert. Although it was a shame to look around me and see so many confused folks that didn’t even know the song smh :/
That’s so cool. It must’ve been so disconcerting for people who only know the modern stuff. This song is my favorite, but it’s so much darker and more foreboding than any of their modern songs.
wow i miss this so much. This is so unreal I don't know whether to cry or smile watching in the end a bit of both. This brings back so many troubling/amazing memories of when I was a teenager and moved country and the pain I went through as I listened to this album but also a comforting pain.
So sad seeing how good they was. A masterpiece like this, only beautiful sounds, no synths, no colored clothes and butterfly canions, only pure and talented music.
When I was a teenager, I started listening to music with Coldplay and I still listen to only the first and second albums. I miss them before getting Grammys, who was not a superstar.
Seeing Coldplay in Marley Park, Dublin, early 2000, I wanted to hear this song so much - for me, it is just pure Coldplay at their best. Aside, the concert was amazing, and like others who have commented on here, I am hooked on their first 3 albums...
I stopped listening to Coldplay a long time ago. I get things change, but this is the music that got me through the hard times in high school. Great album.
Please help back to writing songs like this. Parachutes changed my life, but the latest stuff just winds me up. So much talent spent writing songs for the masses and labels. Come on guys please get back to this 🙏

Perfect.
Ross Parker I would always regret what I missed! And I never knew the band as CP which live as good as studio..better!
Ross Parker ROBTTH is one of the best albums ever created
They cannot seem to beat these older songs from ROBTH. Simply beautiful and dreamlike.
Parachutes, A Rush of Blood to The Head and X&Y... that's what Coldplay really is. Miss this old days.
thefolkloric this it's the best comment here. those 3 albums are pure art
Can't agree more. I hope one day Chris Martin can understand that.
Why tf do the idiots in these comment sections always dismiss Viva La Vida?? That album was 100% their creative peak.
thefolkloric Also the album "Castles" expresses the original essence of Coldplay
totally agree, the trident
This song is the greatest Coldplay song, no question in my mind
You're right Neptune boy
this and Violet Hill
Specially this live version
I agree
Jorn Erik BASED!! I was thinking the exact same thing!
I'll always be in love with this sad, dark, simplistic era of Coldplay rather than the happy, colorful and presumptuous band that is right now.
I feel like nowdays they’re more focused on the spectacle and the public, but backdays the passion and the music. I really miss acoustic instruments.
@@blackbird4787 Absolutely...acoustic guitar and piano was their natural habitat.
i think both forms of the band are really good tbh but i would like to see darker songs soon
I used to agree with this.

I'm in love with Jonny's work. What a man.
You’re quite lovely yourself miss 👀
i cant stop replaying 3:08 jonny had me descended
man that guitar solo just kicks you, so much reverb, so much feel...
Right
Oh thanks. I was trying to figure out that sound on pedal board
Who’s hearing this beautiful melody in 2024
August 8th, 2024!!! 🎉
I saw them when they first started over 20 years ago. Under a big tent in Boston Harbor. They were amazing. Johnny threw me his guitar pick. I gave it to the lady I knocked over to catch it.
My self always and always, secured my tickets for AbuDhabi 2025 Concert
2150 by my clock
After listening to the new album my ears begged for some old coldplay to heal
Fuck this song is AMAZING live.
shits all over the studio version, don't it?
@@mysticnovelbroMejor que la versión studio
Was crazy about Coldplay before. Not many knows the band in my country and then BAM!
Can't stop listening this masterpiece.
Well said!!! Truly a masterpiece!!!
I’ve always come back to it
Please Coldplay come back to this!
Simplicity is everything!
Their new album everyday life
Yeah, I honestly like how humble the stage is. It’s just Coldplay playing music, and you just vibe to them.
This performance really is something else. Especially 03:09 gives me the goosebumps each time.
2 observations - in 2020, this has aged WELL. Second, this album was DARK. I think people forget how dark it was. This was what people were listening to in 2003.

@@headfullofmusic422 Yes. Especially, the album opener "Politik" was written in the immediate aftermath of 9/11
Definitely. Would love for Coldplay to do something like this in another album soon. Politik was written like 2 days after 9/11.
Some of their new songs are dark
Hands down my favourite Coldplay album. They never topped this one in my opinion.
The sound of the dude playing slide guitar is genuinely one of the best guitar tones I’ve ever heard
Some of Jonny bucklands finest work for sure
Jonny Buckland on the guitar, Ladies and gents.
If only the guitar solo was on the album recording.
They made a live album.
the amazing part of Jonny and this solo is that every show of the rush tour he did a different solo!
I want someone to make a live edit of this version of A Rush of Blood To The Head
@@ThrillsofColdplay explain what u mean to me!
@@sweeps42 0:00 0:34
So so good. The REAL Coldplay
Still amazing after 17 years. I'd wish they would be more rock/ prog again instead of light pop.
agreed.
Agreed x2
Agreed (3)
Coloratura is pretty prog tho
Try 20
3:15 Jonny's eerie slide solo is 11/10
We all literally need A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD every f*cking day! This albun is pure GOLD!
the moment you realized live version is mich better than studio version. goosebumps lol.
All the best bands are better live .fact
Haha 😂 exactly
These are one of the very FEW bands that can pull this off. They certainly did! Pink Floyd would have to be up there.
I agree and this is exactly how you recognize a true and magical bands
@@serge933 radio head aswell always very good
17 years later and the lyrics for this song take on a whole new meaning.
The complete song is very haunting, especially with this guitar play. I wish that, they were record the song in this version.
My brain hurts from trying to read this
They hv released a live album of their tour
They did, its called Live in Sydney
@@davefan16 same
I absolutely miss this Coldplay era It meant so much to me in my childhood
Used to listen 'talk' watching the stars in the garden before sleep I'll never forget
can't believe it's been 20, not 10 years! Early coldplay rocks.
I listen to this with almost heartbreak. Coldplay have obviously evolved and FairPlay to em. I wish em all the best. But nothing tops what they were!! Unbelievable emotionally heart wrenching lyrics rockstars.

Been to the one in Cleveland your not wrong my friend

We know that Old Coldplay will never come back. Probably there are dozens of amazing songs that we never will listen live again. We know they are still out there, and at the same time we know it never gonna be the same again.
I would love to feel the atmosphere of that moment. There must have been something unique and unrepeatable that night.
bone chilling. This song is something
That guitar is giving me Pink Floyd vibes, and I love it!
Same ❤
the guitar is so pink Floyd in places. love it
theoneandonly690 Yeah! Someone looks! Shine on you crazy diamond
Best damn coldplay performance era ever!
Their greatest song, performed to perfection. Not prepared to change my mind.
damn, those solos are still loud in 2017
This is my favorite song of all time, and my wife and I danced to it towards the end of the night at our wedding reception. It will always be a beautiful memory for me.
I don't care if these type of songs didn't attract the massive amount of people that My Universe does but it was the kind of songs that fascinated me from Coldplay 🥰😍
This will forever be my favorite coldplay performance. Pure, raw emotion and talent.
Buckland magic sounds
Far from being a top notch skilled guitarist, still one of my favorite top 10 guitar players. Hearing his rifts takes me really high.
Oh man, I miss their old style, no synths, only these magic sounds.
Unreal. Coldplay back then was a masterpiece.
I wish more people could enjoy this music instead of the crap that's on the radio nowadays..
Sloer Meutel I know right
Sloer Meutel we are out there man. Just because we aren't posting on TH-cam videos doesn't mean we aren't out there.

Marcelo Duarte What radio station are you listening to? I only ever hear VlV on the radio if they play at all. Would love to hear more coldplay lol
If only Coldplay would still make songs like this....their current stuff is rubbish in my eyes. I used to love going to their shows....
This song is underrated.
Parachutes, Rush of Blood to the Head & X&Y are their best albums. Don’t really care for the others. Wish they still did music like this
Viva la vida Is pretty damn good, it all went downfall in Mylo Xyloto tho
Imagine thinking Viva or Mylo is trash. Y’all probably haven’t even fully listened to both albums.
@@JP-ut6gd I agree. Their sound since "Every teardrop..." started their inevitable decline. It is almost the same story with Muse since that Twilight song.
shame they never play this song anymore. it’s such a damn good song. johnny's guitar work in this is heavenly.
I was so lucky to hear this great song on the AHFOD tour, foro sol 2016, Mexico City . I started notice that I was the only one on my section singing the whole song. It was beautiful! : , )

La mejor canción!
Mi favorita de todas!
Será el único comentario en español??
Yo también 😊
Yo también!
este disco por completo es una obra de arte
❤❤ Yo también ❤❤
Only old Coldplayers love this master piece
Probably the best Coldplay era. It's a real shame that I was only 4 years old at this time.
I agree. I was 7. Makes me sad I can’t go to a Coldplay concert like this. I still love them, but their newer music isn’t my favorite.
Lol same man but come back to their first 3 albums so often
Who made the mistake to mix Jonny's guitar so quiet in the album version?
This is almost a whole new song live with the piano at the end omg so killer. The album version is so much darker which makes it just as good
It’s not quiet at at all, what are you talking about? He’s just playing extra slide patterns in this live version.
It's a different type of guitar, and it's not quiet
I really wish this song was used in Joker's ending scene, as he's in the police car looking at all the chaos. I mean, lyrics like "I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn, do back all the things it did to you in return" and "I'm gonna buy a gonna gun and start a war" just describe the moment perfectly.

Man!
@@Gentamoru I was at that same concert and I completely agree
@@Gentamoru what did will say?
I always feel like standing atop the tallest mountain looking into a sunset sky when the chorus comes in.
The piano at the end is a nice touch.
I feel like walking through your home town while it's in fire and ashes is more suiting lol
The good old days when coldplay made music for the sake of music, and not for the producers
Yeah 😔 Just pure emotion
Prime Chris Martin's live performance was something else😭 I was still a toddler during the years though but I just know how much i love Coldplay

One of the most underrated song ever
Never gets old..never gets bored...always stunning!..epic era of Coldplay...
Proud that I used to jam on this in my youth! Made me a better man!
Este video significa tanto para mi...🤍🇵🇪
“So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane; When am I gonna see that pretty face again; Meet me on the road, meet me where I said; Blame it all upon; A rush of blood to the head” 💓 (Ah. That rush of blood to the head. The craziness of love. And lust. The frantic beauty of falling hard...)
why this is so good? i just can’t stop replaying this song!
I miss the good old days when people really enjoy the concert instead of enjoying it through their phones :’(
And this song is so beautifully written..
“He said I’m gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you could tell me something worth fighting for”
Imagine how poignant that was in 2002-3. The post 9/11 years. The Afghanistan years. The Bush/Blair years.
I went to the London and Brighton gigs for this tour. I wish everyone got to experience Coldplay like this. ROBTTH is an undefeated Coldplay album.
I was going to write the same comment ...good point
I still can’t believe I got to see them play this song live 2 years ago when I went to their AHFOD tour in Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤️ best moment in the entire concert. Although it was a shame to look around me and see so many confused folks that didn’t even know the song smh :/
Diablos, yo si hubiese gritado a madres si comenzaba a escuchar el inicio en vivo, no suelen tocarla muy seguido :(
any chance there is a live recording of this on the internet??
That’s so cool. It must’ve been so disconcerting for people who only know the modern stuff. This song is my favorite, but it’s so much darker and more foreboding than any of their modern songs.
wow i miss this so much. This is so unreal I don't know whether to cry or smile watching in the end a bit of both. This brings back so many troubling/amazing memories of when I was a teenager and moved country and the pain I went through as I listened to this album but also a comforting pain.
Este es el lugar donde me encuentro conmigo mismo, mi refugio, gracias Coldplay por tan bella canción.
wow, that guitar player is amazing.
Johnny :)
I've got a DVD in 2004 of this Live and this song still my favorite since that date
The best band of the all word!!! =D
A melhor música dos anos 2000. O solo mais lindo da década.
Lástima que no lo grabaron para la versión de estudio, una pena la verdad
The lyrics, the guitar it's almost magical they penetrate quite deep.
to the deepest core indeed
coldplay just need to surprise us and come back down to this level. Come back to your roots guys. I miss this.
Best album ever!
Com toda certeza!
So sad seeing how good they was. A masterpiece like this, only beautiful sounds, no synths, no colored clothes and butterfly canions, only pure and talented music.
This never gets old, Coldplay at its best form
When I was a teenager, I started listening to music with Coldplay and I still listen to only the first and second albums. I miss them before getting Grammys, who was not a superstar.

Singin OOUUT *O F K E Y*
Viola Fortin i was about to comment this but looks like someone had this same idea two years ago
Best live intro of A Rush of Blood to the Head
Absolute masterpiece. Genuinely can’t stop listening to it.
Man o man. What have they become now! Old Coldplay songs make me understand how important art is in our lives. Now they've become just too mainstream.
Those 2 first albums where the best they made
I stopped listening to Coldplay a long time ago. I get things change, but this is the music that got me through the hard times in high school. Great album.
This performance makes my soul feel like a tidal wave.
21 years later… my green eyes, I miss you. Theresa. I will see you soon, honey.
God please help me with expression, I mean I can't explain how amazing this masterpiece is... Dead man Alive
Blessed were those in this crowd!! What a master piece!! Miss this coldplay so much!!
This song is so underestimated.
underrated masterpiece.
1:40 this... and this 3:08...
I love the guitar feels man.
Muse does that on a daily basis
guys please don't compare every band is unique I love both coldplay & muse...
Guntur Wiralaksana No one likes Muse.
Lol, salute to the greatest Alternative Rock Band in this generation, alongside with Radiohead. At least we didn't turn to pop.
Please help back to writing songs like this. Parachutes changed my life, but the latest stuff just winds me up. So much talent spent writing songs for the masses and labels. Come on guys please get back to this 🙏
De todas las bonitas canciones que tiene Coldplay está siempre será mi favorita 🥰🥰🥰
Truly AMAZING. AT A TIME THE WORLD NEEDED THEM MOST. TY COLDPLAY
