That used to be my thing when I was much younger I was playing Coldplay while driving in irvine California the nicest and safest city in America at night.
this is my favorite Coldplay song ever, makes me feel so inspired, it's something almost celestial, I just can't explain how it makes me feel, I can imagine myself watching the aurora boreal or the sun fall on the top of a mountain, the green gardens and the blue skies, elevates me to the top of heaven! Magnificent creation of such an amazing and talented band, Coldplay!
also its my favorite!! its a very incredible song , the lyrics are so inspiring also it makes me feel as if im somewhere beautiful , such an underrared song ngl I love it!
You've nailed this explanation. This is exactly how I feel too. It's hard to put into words but it feels ethereal. It's a shame that the band/Chris doesn't like this song, idk how lol and that's why they don't play it on tour.
smart comment man. very detailed observation. 👍👍👍👍👍👍unlike others who always put emotional response you did the opposite. commented on theoritical and technical aspect of the song
My heart feels like its swelling with some overwhelming feeling which I cant describe.......why is this so beautiful. Sad that CP does not give enough credit to this
I love this instrumental version. I'am drummer and keybord player, does someone know which synthetiser is used to play these heavenly background sounds ?
Lyrics Speed of Sound Coldplay 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 have 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 have 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 And some get made, and some get sent Ooh 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
@@stochasticdifferentialeq.1393 I personally like both Coldplay and Linkin Park's music a lot. If you don't like Linkin Park's music then that's fine. But if he finds similarities between two songs from two bands that he likes, then that's fine too. We all have different music tastes, man.
+Omkar Shah They also sound like the drums in Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill. And the chorus sounds like the chorus of that song. Both of these similarities are intentional.
There is several similarities to the Kate Bush song Running up that hill. As has been mentioned the drum pattern, the dreamy synth sound and the outro is a nod to the holding chord that runs the whole length of bush's song.
I like this more than the actual song lol. Always thought X&Y suffered a bit from being bloated. I like it very much but there's very little room to breathe. It's just a wall of sounds and the vocals mean there's too much going on. In this version, the song is allowed to breathe and the melody to meander and flow freely. It's baffling that they hate this era of their career. Just this instrumental eclipses everything they've put out since 2015, and 95% of contemporary commercial music as a whole. Incredible talent
They were using old analogue synths like the Yamaha CS-80 and Minimoog Voyager during this period. However, you can pretty much create the same sound in any DAW, even GarageBand. The Alchemy Synth pack is free, and you can edit all the presets.

all Coldplay’s instrumentals are so nice to listen to while driving at night.

@@stochasticdifferentialeq.1393 with some mist ,would be surreal 🌫
Or on the train 😂
I want a mashup of Speed of Sound from Coldplay and Plug in Baby from Muse , please 🙏🙏🙏
Talk is a really good coldplay instrumental!

Also my favourite!! So underrated!!
I agree....Speed of Sound is their best.....and it was really hard to rank their songs too...they are all great.
also its my favorite!!
its a very incredible song , the lyrics are so inspiring
also it makes me feel as if im somewhere beautiful , such an underrared song ngl
I love it!

I sure do hope you were at the wembley concert on the 17th, considering they actually played (half of) it then
Two minutes silence for those who think this song is like Clocks
It is lol
The structure and simplicity are killer. Pro masterpiece. Best engineer/mix

Es la primera canción, que le conocí a coldplay. No sabía que tenía otras obras brillantes, pero esta canción es mi favorita.
I love this instrumental version. I'am drummer and keybord player, does someone know which synthetiser is used to play these heavenly background sounds ?
My favourite song from the album! 💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
I agree!!
Talk but Coldplay instrumentals are better than their actual songs
best music ever!!!!!!!What a song. It makes me emotional

Lyrics
Speed of Sound
Coldplay
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 have 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 have 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
And some get made, and some get sent
Ooh 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
what part of 'instrumental' confused you?
The Best song of the Best album ever !
Un sogno.. dio mio è bellissima..grazie!
one of the best piano lines or maybe the best piano line
ending of part the guitar..melody is a_____unbelieveble
Heavenly.
The drums sound like drums in Linkin Park's What I've Done.
Another LP soldier❤thank god
Omkar Shah dont compare CP to LP, they are two worlds apart
CP makes actual music unlike LP makes teenage going through shits songs

I am getting "It's My Life" (Talk Talk) vibes from this instrumental.
Beautiful band and rhythm
My favorite!! ❤

3:48 epic🎶🎶🎶
Essa música é massa
0:48 the piano volume is a little louder than in the actual mix…
What it should sound like at 0:48 :
Go to 0:48 in the video I provided the link to:
ruclips.net/video/Wyvxkr87NiY/видео.html
It kinda sounds like it was re-recorded in a daw, which is impressive because it’s pretty spot on
@@Yoyo1123-nr4fzalso realized the guitar mimicking the piano is missing
3:47 es la mejor innstrumental
This beat has always felt similar to clocks to me especially the beginning part of the beat
Everytime I hear this song I think about the Concorde. ❤
Does anyone know what synth/synth preset creates that ethereal sound in the background after the intro?

Was a Yamaha CS-80
i listen the chris martin voice a little
Oh man... Am I getting that old?
Bt remember being very careful coz this songs are so touching and might
