If you watch carefully you can see that Chris Martin's mouth doesn't exactly match the words he's singing at some points.

 

[BD2003]

I thought that was pretty obvious. Cool, but they're far from the first to do this kinda thing in a video.

 

[GtPrOjEcTX]

pretty cool from what I can tell...

this is the best link I can find quickly....anyone have better?

 

[geno]

I haven't seen it yet - but it's probably something like Pharcyde's video for "Drop"

You try memorizing the song backwards

Spike Jonze already did this years ago.

As geno pointed out, Pharcyde - Drop.

wouldn't it be easier to just bluescreen himself on background of video running in reverse?

No, because if you watch the video he is going in reverse, you'd loose that effect if you silkscreened it. NOt to mention that the video would loose it's unique-ness if you did that.

The group? Yeah, they sang the song backwards.

(Spike Jonze is the director. I dunno who the individual members are.)

Wow, props to both groups/artists, it's amazing how far they'd go to produce a video!
