Another Re-discovered Love

Some ol' school Coldplay...

People who don't like Coldplay have broken ears. I'll never understand these people; I have a hard enough time believing that they exist. It's a sad, fallen world we live in. I'm not saying "Coldplay is the 'best'." or anything. I'm just sayin', they got mad skills. Besides, "best" and "favorite" are some of my least absolute phrases. A girls gotta stay outside the box, lest she lose herself in the brand she has created.

I'm here, right now, to give a shout out to an old fave, Politik. What a brilliant song. Click the link, read about it, then read the lyrics below:

Look at the Earth from outer space
Everyone must find a place
Give me time and give me space
Give me real, don't give me fake
Give me strength, reserve control
Give me heart and give me soul
Give me time, give us a kiss
Tell me your own politik

And open up your eyes, open up your eyes...

Give me one 'cause one is best
In confusion, confidence
Give me peace of mind and trust
Don't forget the rest of us
Give me strength, reserve control
Give me heart and give me soul
Wounds that heal and cracks that fix
Tell me your own politik

And open up your eyes... just open up your eyes

I have been soo much into classic coldplay these days, you have no idea!

I fell asleep to my coldplay playlist in the afternoon a few days ago in my car waiting for someone, and woke up to that last part of Politik (live) ("But give me love over, love over, love over this"), it was like a surreal experience.

Right now, i like, Everythings Not Lost (Live @ Ahoy Dutch EP Version)....

BoQ:

When I counted up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulders
I drove the other ones away

So if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

When you thought that it was over
You could feel it all around
And everybody's out to get you
Don't you let it drag you down

'Cos if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

If you ever feel neglected
If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

Singing out
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Everything's not lost
