petehatch Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 TOP 3: White Shadows- ooooo the super sonics, melody, and beat Swallowed by the Sea- damn you and your melodies, martin! Fix You - love it, love it, love it, dont love the guitar mega chorus, love it BOTTOM 3: A Message- amazing lyrics, chorus gets boring Low - still need to uncover its jewels, hope there are some behind all its forced testosterone (studio clip gives me hope i can hope) The Hardest part- yikes. your drum beat and chorus hurt me so. U2 at their worst. OVERALL: you're a cool dude, X&Y. nay, incredible. cant wait to meet your next b-sides and soak up your many contrasting moods.

racheld Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 I'm not sure you can really discover the top 3 and bottom 3 of X&Y by just hearing a bunch of 30 second clips... :/ Wait till the whole album comes out.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafc4eva Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 speed of sound = bad cover of clocks, the two Bsides are good (not great, but good) white shadows sounds like the best on the album so far and needs a release! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egghead Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 you're judging the album, on what? live stuff? 30 second clips? :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiReZ Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Is there a worst song? :P haha, yeah.. .SoS! :D out of all i've heard, it's by far the weakest track...but not saying it's horrible or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ze_newie83 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Anyone else think that "The Hardest Part" sounds good. Most posts regarding this song have labeled it one of the weaker ones according to the sound samples. Based on what I've heard so far I like.

*Ali* Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 white shadows sounds like the best on the album so far and needs a release! whitre shadows is my favourite too :D i prefer they're more rockier darker stuff to the ballads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah87 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 My favourites so far are A Message and Fix you,the rest is really good too. I guess everyone will find their songs in this record,it's diverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njcogswell Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Okay, myself...i do not think that White Shadows is the best like many others do, nor am I too excited about hearing the entire version of the Hardest Part, it sounds kind of sappy. I think that Speed Of Sound is a great song whether it sounds similiar to Clocks or not and I am a fan of the Coldplay ballads. What If = Great Song, Fix = Great Song (i do love the heavy drum section, without it it would be boring), X&Y = Great Song. I must admit that I love pretty much all Coldplay songs except for Green Eyes (what were they thinking) and I will love the entire album of X&Y. I just must state my opinion seeing as it is very different from the rest of you. I'm sure it will change once I hear the whole album. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiReZ Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Glad I'm not the only one who dislikes Green Eyes... i actually love this song...as well as most of coldplay's songs. every album has a weak song... in my opinion Spies was their weakest on Parachutes, A Whisper on AROBTTH, and to me, so far SoS is the weakest i've heard off X&Y. But don't get me wrong, i like spies, SoS, but not A Whisper that much.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racheld Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Yeah strangely enough SOS does sound like one of the weaker tracks. Maybe because it almost sounds like it could be on AROBTTH and the rest of the tracks definitely belong on X&Y... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehatch Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 spies? that surprises me... une classique. i would like to rearange the songs i dislike. Low is cool, a message is cool. X&Y is really not that cool. it sounds like a musical and a schmalzy one. better when the beat comes in but does anyone else think those strings are overly syrupy? *to the people fretting about picking favorites and least favorites at this point in the game: stop crying. A) our opinions mean nothing B) we're reacting to what we've heard, full song or not. C) unless you have no discernment, you have songs you like more than others.
