Clocks, Trouble and Yellow are ok. Can't stand the rest of it. Far too simple.

I really like these guys when they do a good song. They've got some really great ones, on all their albums, and some ones that I just can't stand.

Politik is one of my favorite songs. i really like their first cd Parachutes the most, i have a rush of blood to the head. i haven't bought X & Y yet i don't know but for some reason Speed of Sound annoys the hell out of me. i do like Fix you.

Banal, that link makes me upset.

"Guy Berryman hinted that the band may detour into electronic music, or a sound somewhat edgier than their usual soaring, piano-driven ballads."

Boogie, I absolutely disagree 100% with you. (I've ranted about this a few times.)

Coldplay have put out 3 very similar albums. They're in serious jeopardy of being the 'safe band' that just churns out the same material over and over again. It's time for them to grow and evolve their sound into something new. They have to talent to do it.

Personally, I can't wait to hear their new sound.

Clocks is my ultimate favorite, but Amsterdam is also a good one. Don't Panic is another great one, which was on the Garden State soundtrack.

I'm not flaming or baiting, I'm just quoting a funny line from a funny movie, Zaz.

I have recently listened to all of X&Y(Again) and chose my 3 favorite songs off the album.

1) Fix You-I am a huge fan of 5 part harmony. And I love the lyrics.
2) Speed of Sound-Who dosent love this? Catchy, once again good lyrics.
3) Swallowed in the Sea-I just love it.

My 5 favorite are:
1) The Scietist- Top Ten best song of all time.
2) Yellow-This is a "Classic"
3) Clocks-As drummer siad on Vhi's Storytellers "If this song ever becomes a hit me and our producers said we would eat our hand. Well were we wrong, I say serve up the hands" Clocks is mezmerizing and in '03 the performence made me fall in lov e with this song.
4) Fix You-As stated above.
5) Trouble- I dont know what it is about this song, it just touches me.

Now what are your favorite Coldplay songs?

I'm not disagreeing with a new direction, just *the* new direction. I really disliked X&Y, and it was mostly because of the electronic influences. So Coldplay looking to have a "more electronic sound" makes my teeth grind somewhat, especially when the best thing about them in the first place was their rawness, their every note being played thoughtfully and with intent. You just can't get the same thing from electronic music. Not knocking electronic music, it's great in its own right, but it is not the sound for Coldplay. Hell, I wouldn't care if the band went Metal as long as they kept the feeling and intelligence that made their first two albums stand out.

When Coldplay is on their game they are one of the best bands in the world. However, X&Y is Coldplay at a crossroads. What holds this album back are tracks with off the wall lyrics that make no sense. Fix you is a good example because the four part harmony is cheesy, but the guitar solo in the middle is killer.


Best of X&Y - says me

Kingdom Come

Low

X&Y
