The official video in full. New album, 'Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends', available from June 16th in the UK.
Singer Chris Martin chose it after seeing the phrase, which means “long live life,” on a painting by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, who endured polio, a broken spine, and chronic pain for decades. “She went through a lot of shit, of course, and then she started a big painting in her house that said ‘Viva la Vida,’” says Martin. “I just loved the boldness of it.”

I had no idea that their album name was based on a Frida painting (as an art history major, I'm blushing). Art + Cold Play = what more could you ask for.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info!
I am a huge fan of Chris Martins voice - and I love Frida Kahlos paintings as well. They reveal her life in a mysterious way.
ReplyDeleteI don't listen to Coldplay much, but after this post, I really want to look into their new album!
