COLD PLAY

Para su tercer álbum ‘X&Y’, hizo falta un maratón de 18 meses de trabajo
antes de que estuviesen preparados para el esprint creativo de última hora hasta
la estrofa final. Pero cuando eres un apasionado de tu música, haces lo que haga
falta. “Nos esforzamos hasta donde podíamos llegar”, explica el guitarrista
Jonny Buckland. “Necesitábamos sentir que habíamos progresado, que nos
emocionaba lo que hacíamos, y no queríamos dejarlo hasta que estuviese bien.”
Letra de la canción Speed of Sound
Speed of Sound
How long, before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long, before you decide?
Or 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
The 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 stop before I can start
Or before I see things the right way up
All that noise and all that sound
All those places I have found
And birds going 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
What you put in China, all lit up
The sigh that I couldn't breathe
Or the light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe
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
Oh when you see it then you'll understand
All those signs
I knew what they meant
Some things you can't invent
Some get made and some get sent
Oooh
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
Oh when you see it then you'll understand
