It's crazy how it was made 3 months before I was born

For anyone wondering, this song is an interpretation of King Louis XVI's lost final speech before his death following the French Revolution. It's written in Louis' point of view as he apologizes to his people and accepts his demise. For some background, Louis was imprisoned and publicly executed by his own people following his downfall. When he was marched to the guillotine for execution he attempted to give one last speech to his people before his death, but the French revolutionists booed and the executioners drums were played louder to drown out the sounds of his words. As so, before Louis could finish his speech he was forced into the guillotine and beheaded, his final words now lost forever.
It was pretty cool Att- Arno Dorian and Napoleon Bonaparte
damn.
Yeah poor Louis XVI all he wanted was to live a normal life but he was the king in a France eversinking in chaos. He was so naïve and manipulable.
That's sad :'(
Thank you for the information

My dad was a huge Coldplay fan, and so i grew up listening to all their music. This song and "Clocks" by Coldplay were his absolute favorite. My dad passed away in 2018 and now their music means so much to me because it makes me feel close to him!

Why do I feel like nothing changes, I think they lower the quality from the videos in the past as time passes to make the new videos seem perfect. I dont know how to explain it tho, just a theory 🤷🏾♂️
How is this Song Motivating And Depressing at the same time
because life is nothing more than loss, and since having something means always having it, but life is not finite, therefore we don't have it, as in we do not own it, that's the conundrum. Up until 45 or so life feels like it is yours, but then you realize that all that is true is that you are inching day-by-day to the inevitability of death.
@@George-rb6bv Hah! I realized the futility of life when i was 18 and forced myself out of depression. Now im just trying to eke out as much enjoyment from life as i possibly can.

Who would ever wanted a king?🤴
I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning, I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listen as the crowd would sing Now the old king is dead, long live the king! One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin Roman Cavalry choirs a-singin Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain Once you go there was never, never a honest word And that was when I ruled the world It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh, who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin Roman Cavalry choirs a-singin Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin Roman Cavalry choirs a-singin Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world

New lyric guy
I used to rule the world Chunks would load when I gave the word Now every night I go stow away Hide from the mobs I used to slay They once were terrified Every time I looked into their eyes Villagers would cheer my way For a hero I was, that's what they'd say One minute we had it all Next our world began to fall Away from all that it had once become They all cried for my help, but I stood there numb I gaze off into the boundless skyline Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield And hope one day that this chaos and Destruction turns for the better Never a bow in hand That was when I ruled the land It was the creepers and Skeletons Blew down the doors and boxed us in Arrows whizzing by like streaks of light I tried all that I could to stay and fight As the undead roamed the street Families broken at my feet Life itself suspended by a thread Oh, why is it that I wasn't dead I gaze off into the boundless skyline Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield If this battle should leave me slain I know that Herobrine will call my name Better to take a stand That was when I ruled the land I gaze off into the boundless skyline Noteblock choirs playing in the sunshine Turn 'round pick up my sword and wield The blade that once forced evil mobs to yield If this battle should leave me slain I know that Herobrine will call my name Better to take a stand That was when I ruled the land

"Viva La Vida" by Coldplay is a reflective song that delves into themes of power, loss, redemption, and the human condition. At its core, the song explores the rise and fall of a once-powerful figure, possibly a ruler or leader, who has lost their authority and is now grappling with the consequences of their actions. The title "Viva La Vida," which translates to "Live the Life" in Spanish, suggests a celebration of life but is juxtaposed against the somber tone of the lyrics, creating a sense of irony and introspection. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who used to wield immense power and influence but has now been stripped of it, facing loneliness, regret, and a longing for redemption. The deeper meaning of the song lies in its exploration of the human experience, particularly the fragility of success and the fleeting nature of power. It questions the price of ambition, the consequences of hubris, and the inevitability of change. The references to historical and religious imagery, such as "Jerusalem bells" and "Roman Cavalry choirs," add layers of symbolism, suggesting themes of spirituality, conflict, and the passage of time. Ultimately, "Viva La Vida" is a poignant reminder of the complexities of life, the impermanence of worldly achievements, and the universal journey of seeking meaning and redemption in the face of adversity and loss.
