Viva La Vida
“Viva La Vida”is just a song by British stone ring Coldplay. It had been composed by most members of this group because of their fourth record, Viva La Vida or Departure and His Friends (2008).

The lyrics to the song comprise Christian and historical references, and also the course has been assembled round a looping series section together with an electronic digital processed pianoalong together with different layers gradually being inserted since the song builds.

The song had been released on 1-3 because the next single acclaim and commercial success of the album. The song became the first time song to hit the million mark paid downloads from the United States.It has sold 7.1 million copies worldwide by 2014, and more than 6million at the U.S. exclusively by June 2013.

The lyrics to”Viva la Vida” are narrated with way of a protagonist that claims that he”used to dominate out the world”. Martin has clarified the song lyric”I understand Saint Peter wont call my name” in a meeting using Q magazine:”It is about… You are not to the list” When asked about the song, bass guitarist Guy Berryman said:”It is a narrative of a king who has lost his realm, and the record’s art is situated on the notion of both revolutionaries along with guerrillas. There is this marginally antiauthoritarian perspective that is slipped in to some of those lyrics and it has a number of the pay off between being besieged by authorities on both sides, but we’re people with emotions and we are going to expire and the stupidity of that which we’ve to put on with each single day.
