I was 23 when I first heard this song. Im now 42. This song has been in my head space ever since. I didnt know what it meant to me till now. I've been sober since 11.22.20. This song is my savior talking to me. Praise God!!!!!
CG! I just relapsed myself with a bad break up + child support. I will add this to a sober playlist, It is your perspective that I like, And you reminded me that we can see the cup half full or empty! One day at a time!
I was homeless when this came out and suffering from a bad tour of Afghanistan. I just missed a armoured landmine as I drove a schimitar light tank and my friends hit it. Messed with my head and this song came on for the first time and I can remember it was the first real emotion I had felt for a long time. I took CBT therapy and got cured. Music is so powerful ❤
Thankyou for your service, my brother David was in the service also and ironically the same thing literally happened to his buddies. Sorry for your loss 💖
This song takes me to a time and place that I’ve never been before, but somehow recognize. It brings about an urge to uncover all the mysteries in my life and in the universe, to analyze every point in time and space to the finest details, to experience every emotion felt by every sentient being from the dawn of creation to the end of reality… but knowing all of that is an impossibility leaves me both melancholy and accepting.
this song is so amazing to me, not only do i hear it, i feel it too! i look at the lyrics and somehow i feel there's a deeper meaning to it, like chris martin experienced something very profound, and is beautifully explaining with words 😐
The birds came flying from underground flying at the speed of sound. The birds are speaking through flight because they are free with no restraints. The message is to not let anything hold you back if you try hard enough anything is possible. Isn't that an awesome message
Something very comforting and beautiful about this song making me think of what may happen at the exact moment when one crosses over into the spirit realm. Absolute feeling of freedom from any and all earthly ailments, both physical and psychological that bind and trap us until our time comes.
Listening this during the quarantine, feeling an endless loneliness. It is 04:09 am, couldn't sleep. I have hope in the dawning, but things never change.
I remember how I used to dance to this song to my dad and he always enjoyed it. Brings so many joyful memories & I get lifted each I listen to this particular track
“ How long will I keep climbing on the side of this mountain of mine “ The ego is the mountain, while the peak is where subjectivity dissipates into objective clarity. Where all senses vibrate at the same frequency and you don’t have to try to live life, because life lives within you.
this is really the magic coldplay has that no other artist can compete with, they have the power to make us feel nostalgic things, calm our frustrated minds.
The chorus my favorite part (WARNING: caps alert to show his insanely awesome falsetto) BIRDS GO FLYIN' AT THE SPEED OF SOUND TO SHOW YOU HOW IT ALL BEGAN!! BIRDS GO FLYIN' FROM THE UNDERGROUND IF YOU COULD SEE IT THEN YOU'D UNDERSTAND!!
So many songs I've been introduced to by my workplace. It's such a diverse range of different genres and decades! This song in particular stood out to me. Whenever I hear it over the intercom, I always go into a more relaxed state of mind. And taking a closer listen with headphones, it's like something else entirely. It's like the nostalgic tune I never listened to, and it's really cool! Thank you, Ollie's Bargain Outlet, for turning me on to a fantastic song!
It really won't fit the mood though. Imagine them playing such a meaningful and calming song on the Superbowl, where you play football, which involves hard play, tackling, and strength.
It's not that it's slow; It's just that it has a deeper, psychological meaning. A meaning to all of existence, science, human minds, blah blah blah big words. I just don't think it would fit a football game. That depends on you, I'm just stating my opinion here.
Well yea I know what the song is about I'm just saying they should of used it cause it was one of thier best songs they did but I get what you mean on the other hand.
This song brings back so many flashbacks.... Bell ringing, grabbing my things off my desk, putting my earphones in, starting this song and walking out the door. Walking the hallways with this song playing, covering up the voices of the groups of people talking around me, ignoring the stares. Opening my locker and putting my things in, ignoring the girls hanging out near my locker. Putting up my hoodie, ignoring the glances from strangers, and just walking out the front door as fast I could, and walking in the small wooded area near the school, looking at the sky and the branches moving, listening to this song. Wondering what the fuck i was doing there
I dont know what it is, but every time I hear Coldplay now in 2018 a sensation of longing, a sensation of time lost, a sensation of weirdness sets in... perhaps because their music was so remarkable when it came out. I still like it but a time will come when depression will set in for having those sensations...
As they say, a lot of water has gone under our bridges. I've had a lot of jobs, learned a lot of skills, known a lot of people, created many things. No regrets, but this song makes me cry, others don't know why it does.
when I was born coldplay wasn't even a thing I don't think. I'm 29 now and when I listen to them I remember my childhood and this song in particular speaks volumes to me. man I wanna grow up again. 🏴🏴🏴
Whenever someone asks me what's the role of bass guitar in rock songs, I always point them to this song, which has a very good build-up and really comes to life when the bass line kicks in.
Hey, if you're seeing this message, it probably means you are alive. Yes... I said that! You are a wonderful human being. The universe is waiting for you to showcase your wildest talents, dreams and aspirations! Although we're living in unprecedented times, remain focus on the possibility that sooner or later, things will go back to normal and they WILL get better. With that said, keep safe, be bold and remember to never give up!
Setting expectations of “the world” waiting for you to shine?! No one…cares about what you’re going or when you break through…you’re doing it for yourself (and the close few who love and adore you), and that can be difficult to earn self-respect from your harshest critic . Don’t have to seek approval from people who give all of 5 seconds of thought about you…I spent 2 minutes writing this, so I care more about you than, lemme figure this out , 5 seconds divided by 2 minutes = 15 people points. So 15 people that respond will in turn touch another 20 people- and pretty soon you’ll have now shown “the world” that you’re are loved and the world does indeed care…ahhhh…the story of redemption.
John Robinson Then I’d like to hear exactly what you listen to. (Edit: I do admit, their newest music is pretty bad. But I gotta love all the older ones they’ve made.)
My goodness. I have been never in to western music and therefore not very much aware of different music genre, but as we say music has no language. I found coldplay to be such a talented artist, band or people. Every song I have heard so far is so extra ordinary and the lyrics, music is so good in each of them. I mean very few bands have all songs on an album such hits. Here every song I here is so much fun and nice. Just go on. You people are awesome for me. 👌👏👊👍
he is an enlightened being. and telling the story of how he woke up to the truths of society. get your heads of out of the sand people. the truth is out there.
What are the birds that fly at the speed of sound and come from underground, literally speaking. Thats what I thought, otherwise I Get this message I think.
Exquisite musical arrangements, and the lyrics bring me in and out from enjoying the actual music. When this song first came out, it gave me a Concorde vibe. The codename for that plane was Speedbird 1and this song talks about birds flying at the speed of sound, although Concorde flew at twice the speed of sound.
Because of their latest material. I'm one of these people, I've seen them in 2002, great show, great songs. Since Vida La Vida they've gone full commercial supermarket music.
I was 23 when I first heard this song. Im now 42. This song has been in my head space ever since. I didnt know what it meant to me till now. I've been sober since 11.22.20. This song is my savior talking to me. Praise God!!!!!

I was homeless when this came out and suffering from a bad tour of Afghanistan. I just missed a armoured landmine as I drove a schimitar light tank and my friends hit it.

All that noise, and all that sound

This song takes me to a time and place that I’ve never been before, but somehow recognize.

you are being too complex to actually realize you are really living.
But it means you'll never run out of things to discover wich is nice.
@@loganwolv3393 that is a very pleasant way of looking at it
that's a beautiful and intelligent interpretation
Ya....this song does have a "transcendant" texture for sure. Melancholy, reflective, and a f%$&no PERFECT D resolve!
That pre-chorus still gets me every time.
Absolutely
🎶All that noise, and all that sound🎶
I was eight when I was listening to this. I've been looking for it for years since then! Thank God for SoundHound ♡

this song is so amazing to me, not only do i hear it, i feel it too! i look at the lyrics and somehow i feel there's a deeper meaning to it, like chris martin experienced something very profound, and is beautifully explaining with words 😐
he wrote it in the awe of happiness of becoming a father to his first child Apple. So, yea. It is special :)
diego flores I know dude😭😛
Aww that's freaking cute 💕
I completely agree this song moves me!
diego flores Amen!
Cold play is the best Group I know ; they have their own signature and style. The lyrics are deep and clever. They are stars !
You can't say a band is the best group if you don't know how to spell their name. Their name is Coldplay!
@@RyseWN yesssss
@@RyseWN im struggling with that in the first time
Except for yellow
Perfect!
I'm trying to think of other words to say how much I love this band and another just beautiful song..🙏🌻
This song takes me to a place iv never been.

One of the best song that I've ever heard...Love Coldplay
You and me both
Imagining that...Chris doesn't like this song.
The birds came flying from underground flying at the speed of sound. The birds are speaking through flight because they are free with no restraints. The message is to not let anything hold you back if you try hard enough anything is possible. Isn't that an awesome message
Scott Ventura is a beautiful message
Scott, Thank You, Love to You and Yours.
Believe you can do ,not stop
This song was inspired by a book, "Jonathan Livingston Seagull".
This song is truly beautiful and my favourite, I hope Coldplay keeps making amazing songs. 👌
Coldplay is the best. I'm in another world. Thanks a ton.
Best song of Coldplay, change my mind
Muy cierto, gran tema
I feel like I've travelling around an undiscribable dimension of music for 4:48 and came back to Earth with a stronger sense of gratitude
So true, I have goosebumps 😁

I hope things are better for you now, stay strong, find your purpose 💚 you can achieve it, you are worthy ✌🏻

You guys are fantastic. Your.songs are so beautiful and touch the heart and soul
Constantly played at my job (cvs) after working some night shifts all alone and secluded I've fallen in love with this song
Also a CVS employee, came here because I just had to hear it again
99 cent store plays this all the time
Ollie's!
I am at work in midtown Manhattan all alone on the fifteenth floor and that is exactly my situation as we speak.
Whenever I'm feeling low I turn on coldplay to lift my spirits ❤
This song really calms me down. Whenever i feel like im going to have a panic attack i literally put this song on and just chill
listening this during quarantine :(
Quarantine gang
Linda musica assim como você Gabriela!
Me too...☺️

“ How long will I keep climbing on the side of this mountain of mine “
The ego is the mountain, while the peak is where subjectivity dissipates into objective clarity.
Where all senses vibrate at the same frequency and you don’t have to try to live life, because life lives within you.
this is really the magic coldplay has that no other artist can compete with, they have the power to make us feel nostalgic things, calm our frustrated minds.
Surely in class of their own
Damn you're cute
best song ever >> i feel inspired
The chorus my favorite part (WARNING: caps alert to show his insanely awesome falsetto)

My answer : 3:24
When you see it. You will understand

my favorite song by coldplay I hope they play this song at the Superbowl this Sunday.
It really won't fit the mood though. Imagine them playing such a meaningful and calming song on the Superbowl, where you play football, which involves hard play, tackling, and strength.
It's not that slow they viva la vida and the tempo is kind of the same as speed of sound.
It's not that it's slow; It's just that it has a deeper, psychological meaning. A meaning to all of existence, science, human minds, blah blah blah big words. I just don't think it would fit a football game. That depends on you, I'm just stating my opinion here.
Well yea I know what the song is about I'm just saying they should of used it cause it was one of thier best songs they did but I get what you mean on the other hand.
Lol. That's like so many albums ago tho lol
"How long do I have to climb up on the side of this mountain of mine."

That piano at the beginning 😭 so peaceful.
Still listening to this 🔥music!!!! 2020
such a great song while racing on the track or just driving on the road
Why do people hate coldplay? I don't get it
Philippe Beauvais Because their new shit is horrible. “X&Y” and “A Rush of Blood to the Head” were great, but they are regressing.
Because of their latest material. I'm one of these people, I've seen them in 2002, great show, great songs. Since Vida La Vida they've gone full commercial supermarket music.
Probably because it's much easier to just see things from a perspective you know.
Exactly! This band is quality! The best even, ( joint with the killers!)
If ever this thoughts crosses your mind again... Just remember this words..."You cannot satisfy all who's surrounding you."
There was a time when I used to listen to this all the time! it's been years since I last heard this song 😪
This Song takes me back to 2007-2008, circa. Times flies like the speed of sound!
