Is as cold as is gets. But maybe it is hot as well.\n\nMaybe the real question is: \nHow outside is the cold?\ndo you have a cold?\nDo you outside you cold?\nHow is Cold? \nHow are you?\nOr,\nhow is it, that Cold is outside? Who let him out?\n\n\n\n- She is so cold-  said Sir Mic Jagger.\n- You are frozen - Maddona implied\n- COLDPLAY - Said Cold Play\n- Baby it´s cold outside - Says Tom Jones\n\nSo you see, now that right now is 24C over here, as Oasis used to say,\nAll Around the World, you gotta spread the word, tell them what you hear, you know it´s gonna be ok!!

The version I have is 4:15 long and it has a lot of English. I got it off of iTunes

To be honest Id never heard of this (knew the song) until now.\n\nIts what they say, learn something new every day.\n\nJust got to work out if its a good thing to learn lol\n\nCheck the link for some possible material ideas.

The 'speed of sound (from Latin celeritas, "velocity") varies depending on the medium through which the sound waves pass. It is usually quoted in describing properties of substances (e.g. see the article on sodium). In conventional use and in scientific literature sound velocity v is the same as sound speed c. Sound velocity c or velocity of sound should not be confused with sound particle velocity v, which is the velocity of the individual particles. More commonly the term refers to the speed of sound in air. The speed varies depending on atmospheric conditions; the most important factor is the temperature. The humidity has very little effect on the speed of sound, while the air pressure has an effect (see equations later in the page). Sound travels slower with an increased altitude (elevation if you are on solid earth), primarily as a result of temperature and humidity changes.

havent heard it but it sounds promising...c'mon they're beatles songs! i bet they sound great in every way.

The song you've heard is called "Fix You" by the British band Coldplay. It's from their latest album, "X & Y." It's a beautiful song with touching lyrics. If you haven't heard the whole song, please listen to it!

it's right, 1 min and 25 secs\n\nif you downloaded the one from Hilary Duff's "Hilary Duff" album. i dont know if ther's anothre version of that

Also try listening to really heavy DOOM metal bands slowed down. Try listening to a Neurosis EP on 33rpms...your brain may explode!

Agreed.  Life does have it's own background music.  Unique for each person, but only audible if one is wise enough to stop and listen to it.  My life music for today would be "The Scientist" followed by "Don't Panic" both by Coldplay.

Sound travels fastest through solids. This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air. The exact speed of sound in steel is 5,960 meters per second (13,332 mph)! But, this is only for the majority of solids. The speed of sound in all solids are not faster than in all liquids.

Coldplay roxs my soxz, I can play "clocks" and "speed of sound" on the piano, and it's very relaxing to do when you're having a bad day.

They are major enviromentalists and they want fair trade for poorer countries. They're doing more than what bands usually do... Usually they just sit around and soak up their fame. Coldplay utilizes their fame to work for the good of others.

depends if you want to sleep, coldplay.. if you want to think, greenday, and if you want just good music, put on some gershwin

First of all, 3 x 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in a vacuum. Thanks for nothing there.\n\nNow, for the speed of sound ...\n\nThe typically cited value is about 340 m/s in standard atmosphere, but the actual speed of sound varies with the medium. \n\nFor an ideal gas, the speed of sound is defined as follows:\n\na = SQRT(gamma*R*T), where gamma is the ratio of the heat capacities of the gas, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute gas temperature. Similar correlations exist for the speed of sound in solids and liquids which depend on the density and thermophysical properties of the medium.

Maybe Coldplay-clocks
