    I would've given it 5 if they weren't getting sued by hella people claiming they stole it.

    With this song, Coldplay is sticking with a formula that has served them well for some time now: catchy enough to get stuck in your head, but with lyrics that are just provocative enough, and instruments that are just far enough removed from 80s-type synthesizer sounds to make them different and fashionable. Not their best, nor their worst.

    I'm surprised nobody is talking about the copy right dispute between Coldplay and Joe Satriani over this song. Here is a link to compare them both. Give Joe's version at least 55 seconds--I think he is being ripped off. http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2008/12/coldplay-satria.html

    I think this is the best single Coldplay has released. It's even better than my old favorite, "In My Place". I'm not sure what the song is about? Jesus? Pontius Pilate? King Herold?

    I like Coldplay, but this song is just decent. It has the same sound throughout and doesn't really change it up to offer anything new. The full length song gives me nothing more than the 30 second clip from the I-Tunes commercials.
