Coldplay - “Viva La Vida” Music Video

Chris Martin and his band Coldplay released not one, but two (!!) music videos for their new single, “Viva la Vida”, off their latest album of the same name.

One is a video directed by Hype Williams, whose work you may recognize from Dr. Dre’s “California Love”. The other is a video cover version that the band themselves “made out of love for Depeche Mode and the genius of Anton Corbija.”

Whether you like one music vid over the other–one thing’s for sure–”Viva la Vida” is one strongest tracks the band has ever produced. Check out both music videos below!

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Coldplay’s latest music videos for “Viva La Vida” — YAY or NAY?

Guh, I love Coldplay. I miss their old mellow sound a bit, but their new one is fun too. And Chris Martin is dead sexy.. his bright blue eyes especially. I love that man and I love this band.

I hate that song and the video. You can tell someone think blue eyes are going to sell records. I use to like them but later they started suc#ing. Now they are so overrated.

looks a lot like the video ANTON CORBJIN made for Depeche Mode, though…

I thought Coldplay was a group. Then why is Chris Martin always in front of the camera. Why can’t guy be in front of the camera. I think CM will not let any one else get a shot. I hate the video and I’m sick of CM’s ugly face in the camera.

Super sexy love Coldplay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crappy music, not original in any way, psychotic lead singer ..Blah

The 2nd vid is way better. Great song too!

well…im not much of a big fan of either videos… but i like the second one best..
maybe i dont like them because ive been listening to this song sooo long without a music video being out and ive loved it so much that i painted a picture in my mind of the videoand its nothing like either so im disappointed. i picture it being in rome…and…so different and when he says “i know st.peter will call my name” i picture it being st.peters square in rome so yeaah. but i am a major major fan of coldplay ive always been!

Man…I love Coldplay and this song, but Hype did a really sucky job at interpreting this into a music video. It’s really cheap looking and the angles are uninspired and cheesy. Overblown hot airness. Nay!

The band deserved better! What were they thinking?!

yay
i like this song!!

I don’t call the second one a tribute, it looks more like a plagiarism

I have to go for the second, because it was shot in The Netherlands.
And i’m dutch, that’s just the reason. Very short minded, i know!

wow - hype williams is a well known HIP HOP director, but this pairing was a great fit.

awesome song.
awesome video,

Both video’s are to me a formal YAY!

Chris looks awesome!!
and to the one who said Chris is ugly….
really.he is the hottest one of the four.
You need to get your eyes checked.Seriously

Guy looks so gay!!!!!
no wonder his wife divorced him
