That is the very line that brings me to this song every time!! Crazily I can’t find any other songs with a similar line - so this song here will always have a meaning for me.
I sat here saying “I wish Princess of China had an acoustic version. That’s what I’m looking for in that powerful song.” I search UA-cam and here we are. An acoustic version. Goodness gracious.
You can really hear how good Rhianna's voice is on this version.. Singers like her and Pink etc often have their voice hidden amongst the beat and effects of their songs. Strip it down and they sound like this :-)
Oh [Chris Martin:] Once upon a time somebody ran Somebody ran away saying fast as I can I got to go, I got to go! Once upon a time we fell apart You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart Oh, oh! Oh [Rihanna:] Once upon a time, we burned bright Now all we ever seem to do is fight On and on, and on and on and on Once upon a time on the same side Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw water on my flame? I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go You stole my star La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la [3x] You stole my star La, la la la la laaaaaa Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [Chirs Martin and Rihanna:] 'Cause you really hurt me No, you really hurt me 'Cause you really hurt me No, you really hurt me 'Cause you really hurt me Oh, you really hurt me, oh 'Cause you really hurt me Oh, you really hurt me
I feel like many people hate "Princess of China" only because Rihanna is in it, and many people don't like Rihanna's image. I'm not a Rihanna fan, but I won't doubt that she has very nice voice (particularly in this song). Obviously, Coldplay wouldn't have chose her if they didn't think she wasn't good enough for the song...
I don't like the original because it's really different from the usual Coldplay sound. I do love that they experiment with different genres, but they have some songs which are really close to mainstream pop trash for my taste (...don't get me started on the chainsmokers' one... or the big sean part of miracles, which annoys me to no end because the lyrics for that one were so good...)
I love the original, but this is so much better! The vibe is so much more emotional, which fits perfectly with the lyrics, it genuinely is beautiful. Rihanna gets loads of crap of people saying all she does is prance around in her underwear, but this shows another level of hers. The two voices together just work :)
Ohhhhh... [Chris Martin:] Once upon a time somebody ran Somebody ran away saying fast as I can I've got to go, I've got to go!!! Once upon a time we fell apart You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart Ohhhhh, ohhhhh! Ohhhhh... [Rihanna:] Once upon a time, we burned bright Now all we ever seem to do is fight On and on... And on and on and on... Once upon a time on the same side. Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw water on my flame [Chorus:] I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go And stole my star La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la [x3] You stole my star La, la la la la laaaaaa Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh [Outro:] Cause you really hurt me No you really hurt me Cause you really hurt me No you really hurt me Cause you really hurt me Ooooooooh you really hurt me, ooooooooh Cause you really hurt me Ooooooooh you really hurt me...
I doubt any of the members of Coldplay will ever see this but... I love you Coldplay!! Listening to your music gets me through hard times and inspires me to always help others in hopes that maybe I'll make as big of an impact in their lives as you've made in mine.
Me encantaaa esta versión de la cancióóón. Es mejor que la original. Mucho mejor. Esa nunca me ha gustado tanto, pero esta me gusta mucho. Me alegro de que hoy en día existan muchas variaciones de una sola canción. La música es tan diversa!
Thanks for uploading this acoustic version of Coldplay's "Princess of China". I'm totally experiencing & feeling & living the lyrics of this "Princess of China" song. I really feel the emotions that Chris Martin & Rihanna are conveying in this acoustic version. I'm truly, deeply, completely hurt & devastated by the off & on boyfriend of one year who left me on Valentine's Day week. When someone deeply hurts you to the core, the deep hurt means that I really, truly loved that guy & cared for him.
Lyrics* Oh Once upon a time somebody ran Somebody ran away saying fast as I can I've got to go, I've got to go! Once upon a time we fell apart You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart Oh, oh! Oh Once upon a time, we burned bright Now all we ever seem to do is fight On and on And on and on and on Once upon a time on the same side. Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw water on my flame I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go I could've been a princess, you'd be a king Could've had a castle, and worn a ring But no, you let me go And stole my star La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la You stole my star La, la la la la la Oh-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 'Cause you really hurt me No you really hurt me 'Cause you really hurt me No you really hurt me 'Cause you really hurt me Oh you really hurt me, oh 'Cause you really hurt me Oh you really hurt me
I like this remix better than the original mix. I think the record company tried to push the urban angle with Rihanna which is fine but this mix let both artists shine! great job!
200 years from now... Once upon a time there was a band, a band playing as great as perfection can. I did love, I did love them. Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh!
Only just discovered this rendition, its an insurmountable aria and to take into consideration the MX's chronology its the foolproof proceeding to U.F.O.

"'cause you really hurt me" so simple yet so painful to sing
Rihanna's verse hits me hard
That is the very line that brings me to this song every time!! Crazily I can’t find any other songs with a similar line - so this song here will always have a meaning for me.
@@k_dellz you should try Move on by Garden city movement
Omg so deep 💔
This changed the entire mood of the song
I sat here saying “I wish Princess of China had an acoustic version. That’s what I’m looking for in that powerful song.” I search UA-cam and here we are. An acoustic version. Goodness gracious.
yeah same to me :(
You can really hear how good Rhianna's voice is on this version.. Singers like her and Pink etc often have their voice hidden amongst the beat and effects of their songs. Strip it down and they sound like this :-)
This one really is amazing ♥️
I love stripped down
her name rihanna foo
I thought the original version was pretty but this is just gorgeous....this one feels more relatable and emotional than the original
absolutely !!! has much more feeling and emotion :)
@@peaker2507 i totally agree with both of you! I love this version!
the side of Rihanna we don't get to hear often enough.
i need more of this from rihanna
I have already 8 years listening to Coldplay and this is the first time I listen to this version, I didn't knew about it and I'm so in love.
Chris and Rih's voices sound SO FUCKING GOOD TOGETHER
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
That's cute.
Angeli Grace Castalone touchy lyrics
You stole my star
@@Luna14Smith lalalalala (...)
The original is a forgettable pop song. This one is great. Haunting harmonies. Love it.
Stop hating for any reasons Rihanna sing this song very well and she has a strong voice ! >>> She is an Icon !
What does the icon resemble i wonder?
Yes Rihanna she is slaying on every song
Oh
[Chris Martin:]
Once upon a time somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying fast as I can
I got to go, I got to go!
Once upon a time we fell apart
You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh, oh!
Oh
[Rihanna:]
Once upon a time, we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on, and on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game
And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw water on my flame?
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
You stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la [3x]
You stole my star
La, la la la la laaaaaa
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chirs Martin and Rihanna:]
'Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me, oh
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me
Now THIS is more like it. In the regular version, their amazing voices are drowned with synthesizers and weird sounds. But this, this is incredible.
Yeah but the original makes me think i'm a different universe.
100 times better than the original...
10000 times
agreed
Federico D'Onofrio yes, I agree :).
A million times better!! :D
A billion times better!!! :D
When Rihanna start to sing omg perfect !!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't think it was possible for me to love this song even more
This song is so important to me
your holding in your hands the two halves of my heart ❤
😭😢😢😢😢💔

Her voice fit Chris one which is rare

Could've been a princess you'd be a king👑
i love the uniqueness of rihanna's voice in this, she and chris martin together make artistic music witch is not necesserly commercial..proud of her
can we forget the other version of this song and believe this is the original!!! LOVE it waaayy much more!
Geez time flies didn't realize this song was so old
yeah i know! i almost thought this was a new song when I heard it the other day!:)
Ohhhhh...
[Chris Martin:]
Once upon a time somebody ran

Once upon a time, we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on...

Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
[Outro:]
Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
Ooooooooh you really hurt me, ooooooooh
Cause you really hurt me
Ooooooooh you really hurt me...
Rihanna & Coldplay, perfect (:
I doubt any of the members of Coldplay will ever see this but... I love you Coldplay!! Listening to your music gets me through hard times and inspires me to always help others in hopes that maybe I'll make as big of an impact in their lives as you've made in mine.
Love this acoustic version. It's nice and clean. Light!
I like the acoustic version way more!
I wish they had some kind of video or live of the acoustic version.
Dang this is just beautiful. I love the acoustic guitar. I'm really feeling this version
Me encantaaa esta versión de la cancióóón. Es mejor que la original. Mucho mejor. Esa nunca me ha gustado tanto, pero esta me gusta mucho. Me alegro de que hoy en día existan muchas variaciones de una sola canción. La música es tan diversa!

Their voice........sooooo match!
HOW DID I JUST DISCOVER THIS
rihanna`s voice is amazing and spacial in live ♥
Much, MUCH better than the original.
WTF?! How can you say that Chris doesn't have any warmth in his voice? Chris has the most beautiful, heart WARMING voice, any man could ever have.
Esta version la hace mas especial .. Hermosa cancion
Favorite coldplay song evr
I have so many thoughts on this version on a more deeper and spiritual level... I just can’t explain tho 🌌🖤
I know this feeling when I listen to coldplay :) !
LOVE THIS
Lyrics*
Oh
Once upon a time somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying fast as I can
I've got to go, I've got to go!
Once upon a time we fell apart
You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh, oh!
Oh
Once upon a time, we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on
And on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side.
Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game
And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw water on my flame
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
And stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
You stole my star
La, la la la la la
Oh-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh you really hurt me, oh
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh you really hurt me
3000 replays . Best song ever
I like this remix better than the original mix. I think the record company tried to push the urban angle with Rihanna which is fine but this mix let both artists shine! great job!

AND U STOLE MY STAR
I love Coldplay OMG
Much better than the normal one i think ^^' it was just messy imo, this one is pure and clear :)
thanks coldplay for light up my world!

Don't die! There's still a lot of awesome things coming!
Paixão por essa musica❤️

THIS SONG IS PERFECT *.*
1:22-1:43
my favorite part ♥
I can't describe the memories and love that this song has for me ❤❤
i enjoy this at speed 1.25 too!
+Natadecocogasm OMG so beautiful !
Omg yesssssss
me too 😆
One of my fav. Songs
Mil veces mejor que la original!
Para mí, Milo Xoylto es de lo más malito de Coldplay. /:
Juan Esteban Sierra El nuevo, Ghost Stories es lo peor, Mylo Xyloto aún tenía las letras con significado por lo que me gustó muchísimo.
Mi favorito es a Rush of blood to the head :P
Nada mejor que the scientist, lost, o trouble :Q__
O Fix You, Talk, Swallowed in the Sea, Lover is Japan y muchas otras que siempre que las oigo parece que me gustan cada vez más...
In my opinion, Coldplay is the best band of the moment!!!
A lot better than the original!!!
ultimate perfection
Amazing but it would've been better if it was recorded from an acoustic session and not produced acoustically.
I love Coldplay
this might just be 1,345,346,123,784,234 x's better than the original...let me think...yes, definitely. : )
I think it's more meaningful when a male and female voice sing off each other. ♥ Although as Martin is so fabulous I'm sure he can pull it off :)
Oh my lord. Must better than the original
200 years from now...
Once upon a time there was a band, a band playing as great as perfection can.
I did love, I did love them.
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh!
You really hurt me ..
i hope time fixed you
I think Chris Martin was referring to his divorce with Gwyneth Paltrow.
@@danialtello91 no, this was earlier
Ijust mon fav part
Makes me cryyy!!!! I love it!!
2:28...... chillsssss every fuck*ng time !!!!!
my first love is the sound of acoustic guitar :)
I think the original has some odd and commercial arrangments, but this version is beautiful !
They're both the best!
you stole my star...
I love coldplay.
This is much better I hated the music in the background of the original
M B how ??????? It’s the best instrumental I ever heard
Coldplay is the best!
OMG! This song is BOMB at 1.5 Speed xD Just Saying :)
Only just discovered this rendition, its an insurmountable aria and to take into consideration the MX's chronology its the foolproof proceeding to U.F.O.
Holy shit this version is so much betterr
i love this song...
Better than the original song :3
Speechless ..
nossa já se vão quatro anos....
Melhor música para sempre
