They simply announced that they were going to play a single from some group or another's soon to be released album. I really wasn't listening that closely. Coldplay â Viva La Vida
I can' explain it. Perhaps thirty seconds into the song the breath was stolen from my chest and I was desperately trying to remember who the hell they said was singing. I'm lucky I didn't run off the road or cause an accident.
There have been perhaps three or four songs like this in my life. I never see them coming, and they are seldom from groups that I've been following closely. This is the stuff that makes life good. Ironic the name of the song is "Viva la Vida".
