RunForTheHills Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I started thinking about this just now and i realised that it is quite a hard choice to make. but thats just me. i think Swallowed... wins by an inch. Also think that Swallowed... should have been 4th single of X&Y. You can say which 1 u like better, or anything else u would like to say. ... ... ... Or am i just annoying 4 asking this Question?!

RunForTheHills Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 Whenever i think of the Hardest Pat, i think that video. Don't like that vid, so Swallowed wins. Like the lirics to Swallowed better too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VERVE Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Swallowed in the sea is the better song IMO. I dont like The Hardest Part very much..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victaniac Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I actually like THP a lot more after the video, despite it not being my favorite. Weird! SITS still takes the cake, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andybertolozzi Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 swallowed by far, i agree that it should have been the 4th single....if it doesnt become one in the future, thatll be a mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scientist Man Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 For me it would have to be The Hardest Part!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ondes Martenot Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 neither of them is a great song, but THP is just shit...very simple melody, awful lyrics + worst Coldplay video ever. Â so SITS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remcoowtje Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 I can't say which one is better because they are so different.. They're both just great I'm reading it again but I have to admit that I like SITS even more.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunForTheHills Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 can u safely say that SITS should have been the single instead of Hardest P now...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xim Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 I think it should have been the 4th single, it´s such a beautiful song!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remcoowtje Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 yeah if they would have made an awesome video with it I'd say that swallowed in the sea should have been the 4th single Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 sits is really beautiful song , but it's similar to fix you , so i choose thp :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perfect.day Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 i like the lyrics to thp more, because swallowed in the sea seems like chris is singing about his band instead of something that you can relate to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linnea Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 definitely Swallowed in the Sea, a beautiful song IMO although not as exceptional as some of their other ballads.. still would've made a better single cos to me the Hardest Part is so un-Coldplay somehow..

Space Cadet Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Well, Swallowed in the Sea is my favorite song on the cd, and The Hardest Part is my least favorite song on it, so there's really no contest for me. Now that they're playing it on the radio every hour or so I'm getting to like THP alot more- it doesn't sound so much like a country song anymore. I love that bit at the end where it goes "everything I know is wrong, everything I do it just comes undone"- its the story of my life some days. But I still like most everything else better.

TraceOddity Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 definitely Swallowed in the Sea' date=' a beautiful song IMO although not as exceptional as some of their other ballads.. still would've made a better single cos to me the Hardest Part is so un-Coldplay somehow..[/quote'] The first time I listened to X & Y and got to THP I though, Wow, that sounds so un-coldplay-like! The funny thing is that that's why I really liked it. It sounded more laid back, almost like a jam session. It had an REM feel to it. I LOVE Swalloed, and we ALL love Chris and the guys' intensity, but I found it refreshing to hear a more relaxed-sounding song with all the same lyrical intensity. I'm not disagreeing with you. It's just what worked for me...sorry 'bout the essay...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
