Nice, I really like the cinematography in this video and I agree, Chicago is a great city.
i like this
That’s one of my favorite songs on the album.
And I don’t think many regular, common-folk hipsters have noticed this, but I’ll let everyone in on the secret:
Coldplay has been looked down on by so many cool kids over the years that if you profess yourself a fan of them, you will immediately gain hipster cred and cool points. Do it before everyone else does.
you guys ROCK!
What’s up with the random shots of Common?
That’s because Common is another Chicagoan who happens to have had a good portion of his last 2 albums produced by Kanye. There was a period where if you flew into Midway Airport they had a sign that said “Common welcomes you to Chicago”.
