Stunning Video - Coldplay's Strawberry Swing

Stunning Video – Coldplay’s Strawberry Swing

Posted on 09. Aug, 2009 by refe in ARTISTS

Coldplay seems to be a love ‘em or hate ‘em kind of band. That’s not uncommon when a group reaches the level of success that they have, although Coldplay does seem more divisive than most. Perhaps it’s frontman Chris Martin’s penchant for writing political commentary on his knuckles, perhaps it’s something else.

Regardless of how you feel about Coldplay as a band, Strawberry Swing is among the best of their new songs and the video -- which features Martin as a superhero battling giant squirrels -- is downright incredible. I can only imagine the amount of time and energy that went into to producing this animation, which was produced by Shyanola. The group’s previous credits include bands like Beck and Radiohead.

You may never look at sidewalk chalk the same way again.
