Cool things

One: Coldplay is in Manchester November and December! (I won't be there though)

Two: I am the 80,171,768,336th person to live since there were people to count, and when I was born I was number 5,173,941,609 on the planet. (source: BBC News)

Three: Reading lyrics. Passion Pit lyrics are creepy and amazing. here. Check out Moth's Wings, Let Your Love Grow Tall, Sleepyhead, and Seaweed Song.

"I think I see my life
He bows all slyly and gentle-like
He's never had the right
I've never lived without
His sad and jealous eyes"
-Let Your Love Grow Tall

"You come beating like moth's wings
Spastic and violently
Whipping me into a storm
Shaking me down to the core

But you've run away from me
And you've left me shimmering
Like diamond wedding rings
Spinning dizzily down on the floor

But you're just like your father
Buried deep under the water
You're resting on your laurels
And stepping on my toes
Whose side are you on?
What side is this anyways?
Put down your sword and crown
And come lay with me on the ground"
-Moth's Wings

And here is Coldplay's "Princess of China" which also features the vocals of Rihanna:

"Once upon a time, somebody ran
somebody ran away saying:
Fast as I can, I've got to go, I've got to go
Once upon a time, we fell apart
you're holding in your hands
the two halves of my heart, oh oh, oh oh
Once upon a time we're burning bright
but all we ever seem to do is fight
on and on,  and on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side
once upon a time on the same side of the same game
oh why'd you have to go, have to go and throw it all in my face?
I could have been a princess, you'd be a king
could have had a castle and worn a ring, but no, you let me go
You stole my star, you stole my star
Cause you really hurt me, oh you really hurt me
cause you really hurt me, oh you really hurt me"
