Can't believe so many people don't understand that 'Charlie Brown' is/was common slang for cocaine! Read the lyrics and watch the music video with that in mind and you'll get it. |

@[mileshigh:37948] - absolutely! 'Charlie Brown' is well known slang for cocaine, at least where I'm from. This song is about getting wired (as the lyrics literally state) and having a good time. Even the music video reflects this! I wouldn't ever expect Coldplay to confirm it though. |

'"Tojo" was an answer song to an Australian hit of a few years earlier, "Santa Never Made it Into Darwin" which had been released to raise money for the victims of Cyclone Tracy which had almost destroyed Darwin on Christmas Eve, 1975. During World War II the Japanese army invaded New Guinea but failed to reach Australia thanks to the heroic resistance however Darwin was bombed heavily and often.' - Dave Faulkner. |
