Week 9 Video Playlist
This week’s most visually appealing video goes to Cold Play’s the scientist. I quite like the way they play some of the video in reverse (Chris Martin rising from the matress, basket ball going back through the hoop etc), although now I have thought about it, they must have actually filmed Chris Martin walking backwards while singing since obviously it would not be possible to sync his lips with his voice if they had truly reversed the film at all points. Also without the time symmetry breaking of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, I guess this video would be hard to distinguish from the reality in which we find ourselves.
If you hover your mouse over the top right of this video window, you will see a button. Clicking on this icon will bring up the full play list of videos and you can scroll down to select whichever one you to play.
My Video Summary
If you click on the Playlist Video for Week 9 (top right of this page) you will be taken to a single video which allows you to play each song in this week's list one after the other. Alternatively, if you watch my own video summary below of this week's songs at the end of the video two playlist links will appear. The one on the left hand side will take you to the video playlist for this week while the one on the right will take you to a single video playlist that allows you to play the complete Covid Island Discs collection for all the currently completed weeks so far — well over 200 songs and counting!
