I actually believe "The Scientist was the third single, at least it was in the U.S, not sure about the UK

I remember seeing the Scientist video in Oct 2002.. Clocks came around in the new year, and I'm in Canada. --Madchester 23:28, 2005 Mar 4 (UTC)

Reverse narrative

Can someone please go into details about reverse narrative? I'm not sure what it exactly means, and I can't find any articles on Wikipedia about it.

The music video plays in reverse, with Chris Martin travelling "back in time" through the streets to the scene of a car-crash, where it's revealed that the woman he was travelling with dies on impact. During filming, Martin sang in reverse, so it appears he's singing normally while events go from future to past. GeeJo (t)(c) • 18:12, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Anyone else bothered by the fact that, in the video, the girl somehow flies out of the windshield after the car has already settled on the ground? If you think about the sequence of events as it would occur when played forwards, it makes no sense.--Andrewakt 20:59, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
