I love Paradise. the spin and the last sequence especially, touching,effective moments. at first the trilogy thing seemed to me a little forced and self-referencial, hence limited, beneath them and their potential. but now i think its cool they made Coldplay their brand, their music is well representative of their generation, you cant have Shibs without Coldplay and this is nice, cute. they will be remembered as the Coldplay kids. the voice of the youth. of course i hope they dont quit this year and give us more of their brilliance.
its like we continue to grow close to them, getting to know them better through their skating year after year. Paradise is about Maia (the fragile butterfly) and Alex joining in her dream. and its about a lot of young people who escapes reality closing their eyes and entering the paradise they have created for themselves. how important is this for everyone who saw their lives not going in a certain desired direction, infact going wrong in many ways. life indeed gets heavy but love and self-respect help you stand still. this has been their message in Fix you, That's life. Paradise differ as it doesnt describe life ordeals,but shows the next stage, the soar of the spirit towards better places and towards a much needed peace. so many can relate to this, i feel their message is universal. they're telling many stories in one. with every step and move their undermark each word of the song,they take this task at heart. when i first watched i sensed they were depicting something beyond skating itself. they started to do the same thing last year with that sublime free dance.that sublimity cannot be told in words, its transcendent. they succeded in making their new fd transcendent. i read some commentary on the song lyrics and ended up understanding and loving the dance even more (http://songmeanings.com/m/songs/view/3530822107858881173/ ) sometimes dreams come true,sometimes not. that's why we travel with our mind to unlimited fields of joy.
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
She'd say, "Oh, I know the sun must set to rise."
Maia and Alex, two remarkable human beings.
