May 4, 200620 yr 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?!
May 4, 200620 yr Author 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.
May 4, 200620 yr I can't say which one is better because they are so different.. They're both just great
May 6, 200620 yr swallowed in the sea!!!! i LOVE the lyrics, some of the best coldplay has done IMO. "the streets youre walking on, a thousand houses long..." i LOVE that
May 7, 200620 yr Swallowed in the sea is the better song IMO. I dont like The Hardest Part very much.....
May 7, 200620 yr I actually like THP a lot more after the video, despite it not being my favorite. Weird! SITS still takes the cake, though.
May 11, 200620 yr 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
May 25, 200620 yr neither of them is a great song, but THP is just shit...very simple melody, awful lyrics + worst Coldplay video ever. so SITS...
May 25, 200620 yr i could feel it go down, you left the sweetest taste in my mouth... i loooooove that song
May 26, 200620 yr 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..
May 26, 200620 yr Author can u safely say that SITS should have been the single instead of Hardest P now...?
May 27, 200620 yr 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
May 29, 200620 yr 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
May 30, 200620 yr 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..
May 31, 200620 yr 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.
May 31, 200620 yr 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.
