Life In Technicolor ii

After an album that I liked but was underwhelming in parts, Coldplay released the Prospekt's March EP that had more blow-me-away songs for my buck. In a similar fashion, after the music videos for Viva La Vida didn't really stick with me, the next video out of the Prospekt's March EP is a return to form. With a style and humour that hearkens back to the glory days of MTV, and a clever play on the "now my feet won't touch the ground" lyric, the video only adds to my love for the song (in my opinion, the best on the new album).

Coincidentally, it also reminds me of the haunting Spice Girls music video for Viva Forever with all it's animated puppetry and vintage British quirkiness. Yes, I said haunting, and yes, that is my favourite Spice Girls song...
