Coldplay - X Marks The Spot Lyrics

I like this song

This song proves that good bands don't care about genre, they just simply know how to make the listener's heart go crazy. Probably the best song of Coldplay.

I'm Bloody addicted to this song. About a year ago it was up but for whatever reason I cannot find this song on it's own anymore and it makes me livid!!!! I guess this video will sate my satisfaction for now...

What's the actual name of this song? Cuz search for the short version but I can't find it

i love it good rock. pop.

Surreal ♥️

Stunning 💕

I imagine this song is like a secret peaceful space, a hidden "unlocked" place inside the album.

This makes it more special.

Great fucking song. One of their very best.  Worth an hour listening pleasure.

i need coldplay to play this song live or talk about it. it's such a mystery to me, im in complete disbelief cause i keep forgetting im listening to coldplay. it's such an obsessive song, i cant stop listening to it.

army of one?????

sooo i reach for ittttttttttt lol so catchy

the fact that this one hour version of song exist because this song is indeed brilliant

Such a chilled track👌

This song remember me a whisky bar in tokyo with shiny black floor and flashing electric blue lights

With this 1 hour of music I run and have intensive exercise routine! Its great because the beat makes so energised that I for one hour non-stop run! How cool is that!!!!!!!!!

brilliant!!😍😍

My dad was playin cold play N this shit came on been in love since. Kills this beat

The repetation is awesome! When I do my routine exercise this vid gives me excellent energy to complete!!

Oh my word ! This has to be my favourite. There is alot of life to this song! Enjoy its great.

Me encanta!! A Chris se le oye una voz muy sexy. Amo esta canción.!!! ♥

Stare into darkness, staring at doom
My heart go boom, bo-boom boom
Stare into darkness, admit defeat
Coming home and I'm finding no peace

And I know, and I know and I know
I know I'm out of luck
And I know, and I know and I know
I know what you've got

I put my hands up to the sky, the feeling is like
I've got a rocketship that I want to ride
I put my hands up to the sky, the feeling is like
Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure

(So I reach for it) Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure
(So I reach for it)

Stare into darkness, staring at doom
You make my heart go boom, bo-boom boom
Superhero, a masterpiece
Been innocent but a sinner in me

And I know, and I know and I know
I know I'm in luck
And I know, and I know and I know
I know when I'm not

I just put my hands up to the sky, I'm feeling like
I've got a rocketship that I want to ride
I put my hands up to the sky, the feeling is like
Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure

I just put my hands up to the sky, the feeling is like
I've got a rocket, eyes on the prize
I put my hands up to the sky, I'm gonna find
Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure

(So I reach for it) Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure
(So I reach for it) Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure
(So I reach for it) And I know, and I know, and I know
(So I reach for it) I know what I've got
X marks the spot

I just put my hands up to the sky, I'm feeling like
I've got a rocketship that I want to ride
I put my hands up to the sky, the feeling is like
Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure

Just to avoid being copyright, maybe you should have put some lyrics on it.

So I reach for it...

This is one of my favorite Coldplay songs.

CANNOT get tired of this!!😆 Wont ever happen!!👍👍👌😃

My new fav song. O-m-g.

I wish there was a shorter version on the tube

thanks for uploading this the best bit!

Why do the fans hate this song? its amazing

this is sO LIT I HONESTLY CHECKED TWICE AT THE SONG WHEN THIS PART OF ARMY OF ONE CAME ON TO CHECK IF IT WAS STILL COLDPLAY, LEGIT BOPPING
does anyone know why this 1 hour version is the only one on youtube? every other one which was normal time got copyrighted for some reason. its weird, i wish i could download this but lol its an hour.

X MARKS THE SPOT ... THE NORTH POLE .. WAY OUT OF HERE .. MOUNT MERU .. WAKE UP ..

for a song that took 10 minutes to make, this is pretty amazing :)

alright what the hell where's coldplay

they're right here my dude

Song ends at 2:52 if your wondering

OMG I'VE BEEN SEARCH THIS SONG FOR YEARS

Freakkk! Chris' voice in this song is too raw & sexy to handle! Awestruck!

I dare you to find a coldplay song that's worse than this.

ode for deodorant

lol jk i love literally every coldplay song in existence (and the ones that haven't even been written yet)

For some reason my favorite coldplay album still a rush of blood to the head

How do people not like this?

Wherever you are, I'll find that treasure... So I reach for it!!!!!!!! <3 On repeat!!!!

this song definitely deserves a music video

i love this part

I like it too. Thanks D

thanks so much for posting this hard to come across, but beloved song! ;)

yall are some fucking haters for real.

This is the only version that hasn't been muted for copyright

I like this one, a tad over mixed, but the hook is good.

omg this song was so cool!

staring at darkness? jeez ;-;

This song is kinda meh compared to their other music imo

My heart boboom bo boom boom :D

Love it!

My heart b boom b boom boom! Love this! I'm Coldplay's biggest fan!
Follow me on Instagram: @I.Love.Coldplay!
I subbed, it'd be great if you could sub back!

sorry, this is just not the best coldplay has ever done...

Jochem Scharenborg sorry they can't overtop every song they've done. It's always opinion but this is one of my favorite songs by them. Underrated and I really appreciate this song. I agree it's not the best but you can't expect them to make a new best song every release they do.

woomin its no critisism towards them, i just wish the album wasnt like this.

Jochem Scharenborg I'm sure they will make albums that tie back to their old ones.

i love this song by the way the tittle remind me of the movie saw

Am I the only one who actually spent an hour vibin out to this song?

Fred Edmilson word

nope nope :) Already did it multiple times :)

Sorry,no

Fred Edmilson no this my cut

Thanks so much for adding this, you're a star! It's my favourite track on the album x

i heard this song at first time when i was a crazy and totally confused person, and i put my hands up and i knew GOD put this song in my life to be a new person!

well, coldplay has gone full pop in this one. Il mis their alternative style

best track

I have been looking for this for so long thank you!

Wish that talented 1998-2008 coldplay came back 😪

This song is probably the worst song they ever wrote, even as a hidden track, its just bad. Hidden tracks such as Chinese sleep chant, the escapist, life is for living and especially Til kindom come are masterpieces. Just disappointed with this song

estuve buscando esa rola como loca
ahora quiero la traducción

I dare you to find another Coldplay song with this much swag, that's probably why it's so addictive

Lumitopia real shit. He was on sum shit here. Killed it

Somehow i wouldnt call it "swag"... but its just "coldplay".. the feelings they invoke are not exactly defined yet

I think Coldplay is amazing regardless of any new sound ... evolution is needed, you can't stick with the same sound for your entire career. there's is only so much you can do with each song sounding similar.

the beat, the slow drop. Man this song is a great fusion of edm and rock

jose martinez it’s called hip hop

I luv this

FYI, the line "So I reach for it" does not appear anywhere in this tune.  The line is always "So I race for it."

Lol didn't know this was a hidden track. Thought army of one just had a major plot twist😂

Same , i was like !! Is this is new style for coldplay

wish there was a full version

Haha, same thought!

Holly Ayrton true😂i think"its this a virus in my cd?!"😂i'm stupid

I don't think anyone knew xD

How did you avoid copyright problem When uploading The video ? Aren't you blocked In different country ?

Why they don't perform it live? Seems like a great option for a b-stage performance

It's honestly one my my least favorite songs off of the new album so they may not be playing it live because people don't like it or because the song doesn't work live

It works, they use playback all the time nowadays; bass, guitar and drumpad, like i said perfect for a b-stage. And well, gotta say it's not the best song to put in an album, should have been a b-side.

That's just one of those "Much better than today's [insert random rock band]" comment.
Doesn't apply to Linken Park though. Linkin Park is awesome

so grateful to have found this mix, was so tired to rewind everytime at minute 3:23. Can´t explain the reason why this one has become one of my fave coldplay´s (and most listened on repeat mode!) of all times. Thank you for posting this!!! :)

If only they didn't just use less than an hour to make this song...
But I guess this album is supposed to be everything Chris appreciates and loves together so it's alright... The vocals are overproduced and the song doesn't have any real instruments --- and that bugs me, other than that I can appreciate as a silly dance song with a catchy beat. The beat is decently catchy.

Love this song!! Reminds me so much of the early Coldplay sound (of which I keep hoping they will revisit more in upcoming albums). Thanks for posting!

THIS reminds you of the early Coldplay? Then you don't know the early Coldplay

+Mylo X. In ways It reminds me of a bit of X&Y and Mylo Had a baby.

+JP Craft sorry, but then you've never heard Coldplay 😂

this is SO not the old coldplay. This is some drake Kanye West bullshit

Thanks, this will help me on my work day

this is what i need in my life!

I don't know why but i actually like this song, many hate this because its "Not so Coldplay" "The lyrics and instruments is a garbage" etc.
Why is that? I see nothing is wrong about this song, Coldplay is a mixed genre after all

I agree, man

actually i didn't like this song at first, then after listening arm of one a couple of times i realized x marks the spot was beautiful also :)

M. Rozzaq Yusaliano so true I love this tune

The music is actually Indie Rock. But people don't like the approach Coldplay took when they released A Head Full Of Dreams. Nothing wrong with them not liking the new Coldplay feel. Personally, I like this new take on Coldplay, but some don't really like it.

If this was some indie band people would love this song people love to hate coldplay for some reason

+Steven G. No, the reason is because a lot of people actually know their old music (songs like Yellow, Clocks, Fix You) and their newer records are shit compared to what they have done before

Sadly, that's right, this track it's really poor compared to... for example... Life in Technicolor II ♥

This is a small filler track never meant to be a stand along song. So, comparing it to Life in Technicolor or any other more standard Coldplay song really isn't the thing to do. It's catchy and hypnotic. Two things which Coldplay are very good at producing.

+Mylo X. Shit is subjective, coldplay changed their sound and you dont like it, thats all.

No, most people would say the same thing. Not a fan of the trap beats, it sounds very basic. Just doesnt compare to the band's other stuff.

My teacher asked me to give something to the principal at the front desk, making sure the principal signed it. My teacher showed me where she wanted it signed saying "Make sure she signs it here. X marks the spot." And all I could think of was this song, so I was singing this song all the way down the hall to the principal's office.

which album is this song?

+Faradiba Putri (fardibss) A Head Full Of Dreams

Although this is an hour loop, I still smashed the replay button...

A great contender for one of the worst Coldplay songs of all time. This doesn't use a single real instrument, Chris's voice is overly produced, the lyrics have little emotional connection, this song just sucks. I can't stand it at all.

it might not be your cup of tea, but that doesn't mean its sucks. in all fairness, this song was made in 10 minjtes. chris asked a mate he who works with them if he had any beats. there u have it.

@George Waweru If it's made in ten minutes, why put it on the album?

@Toshi Ahsan well, he liked I suppose. Its only a hidden track. Plays after another song, I forget the title, but it ties in with it.

George williams The title of the song attached to it is Army Of One, sorry If this I'd late.

I've been a CP fan since parachutes. ....but this heeere. .....

Danea Andrews seems like the older generation is a little salty....I love all their albums since parachute also, but if you really are their fan you should be more open to their new songs

My fav is Politik and I love this. So much better than true love and a sky full of stars type of shit.

i'm sooo lovin this

this hour long loop is a godsend. i seriously have not taken this off of repeat since i woke up this morning. there are very few songs on this earth that make me as happy as this one does :) thank you for this

My favorite song on the album actually I like all of them but this song is just a different type of Coldplay and I love it

It isn't Coldplay at all. They pulled off a style that isn't even there own perfectly, that's why its so amazing.

If I hate this song, then this the my favorite guilty pleasure.

Song is so dope!

I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!! Thanks for making an hour version!!

This song fucking sucks, it's absolutely horrible, it doesn't deserve to be part of the track Army Of One it's so fucking boring. It doesn't even use legit instruments, just synthesisers and computer-generated sounds.

EDIT: Never mind I like this song now

Chris Martin said in an interview that he made the song in 10 minutes. He went upstairs for a drink and the melody came up to him, he asked the producer Daniel Green if he had any a drumbeat and they made it in only 10 minutes. That's actually impressive.

@Wilbert Cubero That is very impressive. But it shows why the song is so boring lol.

lol 'screamo'. That saying just tells me you have no clue how creative death metal can be

Wilbert Cubero Yeah its such a calming song aswell i think thats what they went for aswell

Yep I like this song quite a lot now lmao

i love this song im coldplayer

I looooove this song, BTW I tried to upload Army of one but it was deleted because of the copyrights...

this shits gonna be famous, guarantee it.

Only if it gets remixed by some famous DJ, i doubt someone pays attention to a hidden track, see how almost anybody knows Chinese Sleep Chant, The Escapist, Life is for Living and Reign of Love's existence. Sounds like a good song to take samples off and mix.

did coldplay really make witch house

i like it

Yeah this is pop. If you need to put it into a sup genre on it, your the fool..

+Peter Brett this isn't pop, this is some strange fusion of trap and witch house (which, by the way, isn't house). look it up, dumbass

@Gabie Wow you really hurt my brain. Look genius. Im talking from a normal consumer perspective. Preferably one of a good coldplay  fan. Do you honestly think they'll hear this an go. " oh yeah defo witch trap" erm no exactly. 

You're a lost cause, goodbye

Im glad @Gabie
