Watch George W. Bush dance to Coldplay

Only two days after the first vid for 'Violet Hill' leaked, the UK mega-band have followed it up with a far less serious (and far cooler) one, starring a troupe of dancing politicians intercut with the original clip. Watch it here.
By comparison, the first version below looks pretty damn serious. Shot in Italy and looking a bit like a Mad Max apocalypse in parts, it features the band climbing a hill with a violet background (geddit?) and Chris Martin looking very much like an over-sized drummer boy.
Triple M had the recent privelege of flying to London to interview the chaps. All will be revealed on Friday June 6 but for now you can get a sneak peek preview and see the photos. Click here for more info: Triple M Adelaide / Triple M Brisbane / Triple M Melbourne / Triple M Sydney.
Check it out below and let us know which clip you like the most. And more generally, are you loving the new Coldplay?

Well it's strange I'll give them that.
Liking the new song, not loving it but liking it and it gives me hope for the new record. Fingers crossed...

Not really digging the video clip... just a bunch of weird ideas chucked together.
My favourite video of theirs is the Scientist. Not that's grand.

Loving the new George Dubya video much more... pollies dancing and stacking it is always going to be a winner.
Very curious to hear the rest of the album...

I do like the pollie version of the video clip more, especially the bits with George speaking in Monkey (because he is one - but not as intelligent!). I think the song will really grow on me has started to already.
