Which song..?

[Single Part Of Two]

Which song made you start to listen to Coldplay? For me it was Fix You, and yeah, I know that's kind of noobish. :P

 

And WHEN did you started to listen to Coldplay? For me it was in October '05.

[missberryman]

It was "Clocks". I started to listen to 'em at October 2004. Bought their album in London. :) :) :) :) now I am totally Coldplay obsessed :D

[coldplay_steph]

^No, thats not 'noobish'! Its good that you've discovered them! ;)

 

 

I first really started listening in late '02/early '03 if i remember rightly. The track that really got me into them was In My Place. As soon as I heard that I bought AROBTTH, then Parachutes, etc. :)

Speed of sound. I knew a few songs before this one but I was not interested in them ... I've been listening to Coldplay since July/August 2005 and now I know every song by heart lol

[an_cat]

Jeez.... Well, I distinctly remember hearing 'Yellow' on the local radio. That was SO long ago, I was quite young!! :stunned: And I remember seeing the 'Trouble' video on MTV countdowns....

 

But I didn't get REALLY obsessed with them until Rush of Blood came out. I think I got that back in the 8th grade, because I remember coming into class saying "Did anyone see that band Coldplay on the Grammys last night?" and someone said "Yeah, that guy going crazy on the piano. They were scary...." :lol: :lol: Ah, innocence... But yeah, it was either Politik or Clocks that got me to like them.

 

 

lmfao wow. I feel kind of old, suddenly.... :huh: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[missberryman]

That was SO long ago' date=' I was quite young!! :stunned: [/quote']

 

 

:lol: :lol: :lol: you are 17 girl.... :lol: so you're still young :lol:

[an_cat]

:lol: :lol: I know, I know!

 

But when I think back on it, it would have been around 2000? I was probably still upset that NSYNC broke up!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[missberryman]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: okay...NSYNC....that really seems to be loooooong ago :P

[an_cat]

Jeez.... yeah it really does! :stunned: :lol: And the Backstreet Boys! :o Wow.... I was pretty pathetic. I loved my pop music. But hey, thank god it didn't last, right? ;) :lol: And I think it's a right of passage to have liked a boy band at one point in your early teenaged life!

the first coldplay song i heard was don't panic,wich is weird 'cos i always changed the channel when the video was on (at the time I didn't like it)

the first album i bought was arobtth and i totally loved it,a couple of onths later i got parachutes...and the rest is history

[missberryman]

:lol: :lol: :lol: I really know what you mean...I also loooooooved the BSB :D ...I had a crush on Nick :stunned: that's sooooooooo embarassing :lol:

[Hanneke]

I think i started to listen to their music in 2002, after i heard 'the scientist'.

This is kind of a funny story of how I stumbled onto ColdPlay. I hope no one gets mad at me, or takes offense. When Parachutes came out, I heard YELLOW, and hated it. I didn't know who the song was by. I kept hearing it on the radio, and had wished they would stop playing it. Anyhow, time went on, and when A Rush Of Blood To The Head came out, I heard IN MY PLACE on the radio, and couldn't beleive what I was hearing! I cried the first time I heard it. I was absolutely shocked at how good it was, but I didn't realize that it was the same band that played the song YELLOW. As the song was ending, I prayed that they would say who it was, but of course, they didn't. I was on a mission to figure out who that band was. I listened to the same radio station everyday, all day long for months. I never heard the song again. I asked everyone I knew if they knew who the song was by. Of course, it was kind of hard to describe what song I was talking about. About six months later, after trying to figure out who it was, I had given up. I was pissed! So then shortly after that, I was at home flipping through the channels on TV, and what do you know, I heard "the song". I thought to myself,"HOLY SHIT!! THAT'S THAT SONG!" I flipped back a few channels, and to great surprise, the IN MY PLACE video was on. I immediately went out, and bought the CD. The next day I played IN MY PLACE for my boss. He said, "oh, that's that band that plays that song YELLOW". Then it hit me! It was the same band. I felt like a complete idiot at that point for being so judgemental from only hearing one song. Needless to say, ColdPlay is now my favorite band.

 

Oh, and I even like the song YELLOW now! LOL!! :D

[Nettie]

Parachutes era 2000. Hubby and cousin got me into the band.

^Dude, thats exactly the same as me!!! :D

I was pretty young when Yellow came out, and I remember I hated it, i used to rip the piss out of that song so much. :lol: But really I only refused to like it because my mum liked Coldplay and at that age I thought it would be extremely lame to be into a band that my mother liked. :rolleyes: :lol:

But luckily 2years later I heard In My Place and decided my mum was actually pretty effing cool and was right about them all along, and so I bought AROBTTH. :)

[playflocold]

clocks.

heared in 2002 or 2003, im not sure!

since then ive got the coldplaymania :dozey:

[General Qwerty Waluigi]

i heard shiver in June 05

[xim]

The song that made me start to lisen to coldplay was The Scientist. Since that moment I love them :D

[__therese]

the scientist, summer of 2002

[psychosaiqa]

i vividly remember seeing a small part of the "Yellow" video one day and thinking..."what the hell?!" haha, but then i listened to the song and i liked it, so that's when i started listening to coldplay. not hardcore or anything, but whenever i would hear them on the radio i would be like "ohh it's coldplay". didn't really get into all of their stuff until their singles from AROBTTH started coming out, then i went out and bought the album. and now i'm a diehard fan :D

[lili_pt]

shiver video 2000! chris was so cute in it!!! :P i listened to parachutes a lot but i think i only got obsessed when i bought AROBTTH....

[crazyduckette]

I saw Yellow and the video...there was just something about Chris to me, think he looked like someone. I loved Trouble, but just didnt become completely into CP at that time.

 

In My Place and GPASUYF made me love them...then I did it backwards and discovered Parachutes lol! and also, if it hadnt been for my graphic design work placement, I wouldnt have heard all of AROBTTH in about November 2002 which they played loads when I was there. :)

[Aliasfan13]

2002/2003... I think it was probably Clocks. But I do remember my first favorite Coldplay songs were Warning Sign and Shiver... :blush:

[Littlewhiteshadows]

I first got into them cause I got this Smash Hits CD and it had Yellow on it and Secret Smile by Semisonic. I used to play those two songs over and over and then my Dad got me Parachutes. I didn't really become borderline obsessive until AROBTTH came out though, and heard the album so many times I had Coldplay dreams!

[coldplay_steph]

I used to love that Secret Smile song!!!!

I used to watch the Big Breakfast in the mornings before school (oh those were the days!) and they used to change the lyrics to 'Secret Squirrel' LMAO!!!!! :lol: :lol:
