      Ashcroft is tall with a girfaffe neck they try to cover up just like former NBA player Kirk Hinrich (wears prosthetic mask with big fake nose when playing Ashcroft) - same wives just look at em. (Whatever Rothschild that is), who is the same guy who plays Ashcroft.

    There's something so quietly unspoken while shouting it beyond ever being drowned out.
    The way Chris gave way to Richard to back him up on the piano, with the rest of Coldplay defaulting to that supporting role for the human being that gave them - and all of us - a bittersweet symphony.
    One of the greatest bands ever paying their respect to that man, that song....

      In fact, the stones had nothing to do with it. There was some orchestra that covered some of their music, and the verve were accused of ripping elements from one of the orchestral stones covers, which sounded really different from the originals. It was the stones label or some managerial dude who was greedy and wanted money who accused the verve of plagiarism.

      Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Queen, Pink Floyd, The Cult, The Mission and I could go on and on and on!
      As I said, England has the best to offer in other genres as well not just in Rock Music, that has always been the case and will always remain so.

    The message of the lyrics is as impactful as that of the music. The contrast of the violins with the somewhat sad song is impressive.

    This is probably the best song ever written And he's the best singer in the world, Mr. Richard Ashcroft. Ok, here we go:
    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Tryin' to make ends meet
    You're a slave to money then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you to the places
    Where all the veins meet, yeah
    You know I can't change, I can change
    I can change, I can change
    But I'm here in my mold
    I am here in my mold
    But I'm a million different people
    From one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no
    Have you ever been down?, have you ever been down?
    Well I never pray
    But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
    I need to hear some sounds
    That recognize the pain in me, now
    I let the melody shine
    Let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
    But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
    You know i can't change, I can change
    I can change, I can change
    But I'm here in my mold
    I am here in my mold
    But I'm a million different people
    From one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no
    Have you ever been down?, have you ever been down?
    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Tryin' to make ends meet
    You're a slave to money then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you to the places
    Where all the veins meet yeah
    You know i can't change, I can change
    I can change, I can change
    But I'm here in my mold
    I am here in my mold
    But I'm a million different people
    From one day to the next
    I can't change my mold
    No, no, no, no, no
    Have you ever been down?, have you ever been down?
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    Ever been down
    Have you ever been down?, Ooh
    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, yeah
    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, yeah
    My life
    Your life
    Their lives
    Come take it down the only road I've ever been down
    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, yeah
    This life, this life, this life...
    Thank you . .

    I’m going to watch this over and over. I remember watching this performance when it happened. Life rolls along too fast. I played this song at birthday for a friends mum. My 8 year old daughter played keyboard. I remember it like it was yesterday. I really love this stuff. Music has evolved & life has rolled on. Thanks for sharing

      Music is trash now. Even here it was starting to fade to the garbage it’s become.

      @@Texasguy316 now that is sad. With bands from this concert that we’re performing in the the 60’s , I felt it was overall an honest event. But I do agree today’s music is quite shallow in comparison. Perhaps I’m showing my age 😏
