cp3176 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 ^ Thanks! :D +: It's a very beautiful song.. I absolutely love the way it builds up. It's a gorgeous song, and would be a great replacement for Major Minus or PoC. The lyrics are great as well... the intro is something special, however: -: The intro is a little slow for my liking. Although it is gorgeous... I almost want to call the first 10 seconds bland but I just can't, The intro is just something else that is actually quite amazing. But the rest of the song is MUCH better... holy! It's gorgeous! Just imagine MX with Moving to Mars replacing Major Minus or PoC... :) Also, it's not included in the album... :( I did my best on the -'s... couldn't find much other than that :\ Cemeteries of London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Cemeteries of London + Very great feel to it, nice Jonny solo, I like the lyrics - Not great intro, poor drumbeats, out of place outro (for me) Am I like the only one whose plus and minuses are not that long [emoji28] Pour Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp3176 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Pour Me +: It's a great rock track, it's not your typical rock track either... it has a creative melody+drumbeat combination IMO. Great guitar work as well... :D It has this certain feel to it generated by the vocals in my opinion... and one part of the song (3:01-3:26) does the same thing.. that's my favorite part of the song IMO. -: Only recording I can find of it is poor-quality... :( Also, it isn't really Coldplay's best track, I mean there is a reason it got eliminated so early in the X&Y elimination. The vocals could be a bit better, but they still are pretty nice. :) And yes, I'm not too good at making my reviews short and concise like yours. :P I'm probably the only one who makes there +/-'s more than a line or two each. :lol: No More Keeping My Feet On The Ground (I already have a minus for it, just sayin, in case you do have a hard time coming up with one:P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 + nice vibe and atmosphere, warm sound - badly produced (sound overall quite blurry, especially vocals), melody could be better What was your negative, @cp ? Amazing Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp3176 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 My negative would have been that the song title is so long LOL:P +: It has a nice little melody to it... it has REAL DRUMS :D and really it's a great all-around song. I love the "ohhh ohhhh ohhh ohhh" part... that's very memorable to me. -: It's a little cheesy (oh well, we need some cheese sometimes:D), it isn't the most original thing in the world, therefore there's not a lot to remember it by, minus the "ohhh ohh ohh ohhhh" which is in itself a little bland and cheesy, and not as powerful as some of the other Coldplay songs. The song is a little bland as well... there's not much to remember it by as I said before, it kind of seems like a song you've heard before. There's nothing in the song that makes you want to go back and listen to it, for that exact reason. Also, the song title, SUCKS. "Amazing Day" Like, give me a break. And the part when he says that is quite cringeworthy... :D Despite the 6 lines of negatives, it's still an amazing song, so don't be discouraged by that. :) A Rush Of Blood To The Head (song) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 A Rush of Blood to the Head + Very nice rhythm, very "rock" feel to it, (one of) the best Coldplay lyrics written, one of the best songs played live - Not played live anymore, studio version feels a bit dull I Ran Away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp3176 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'll let @I ran away review this one:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Aww thanks ! :D + the best guitar instrumental ever, I can't really describe it, for me the sound is a mixture of melancholy, nostalgia, sadness, departure, new beginnings. Chris's soft voice and falsetto, the cryptic lyrics in the second verse, and that sound when all instruments re-enter after the piano/bass solo (around 3:40, I think) - Someone grabbed the title of this beautiful song as username in Coldplaying.com, and the contents of the posts may not always live up to this song :P A Message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Late.. A Message + Good lyrics - Bad melody/production Mooie Ellebogen (look it up if you haven't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mooie Ellebogen + nice effort to sing something in Dutch for Dutch fans - I'm really sorry but the "melody" and singing sound dreadful to me...which is OK since it was only a joke :) A View From The Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 A View from the Top + nice spacey feel to it, I personally like the intro - what is he saying? How You See the World #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 How You See the World #1 + distorted guitar - don't like the melody A Hopeful Transmission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 A Hopeful Transmission + works nice live after the slow piano b stage set - it exists as a separate track, lazy melody (identical to Mylo Xyloto) Don Quixote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 + nice effort to write a song for Spanish-speaking crowd - don't like the melody; the song should rather have gone by the name Spanish Rain (you can hear the Spanish crowd stop cheering when Chris announces the title, for it is so cliched); the Ole Ole Ole section is rather uncreative Rainy Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Rainy Day + nice strings, semi good melody - bad recording of vocals, terrible intro, that sound effect that goes throughout the song O (Fly On) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 + beautiful melody; evokes deep emotions; amazing that the "bird" sounds are made by Jonny - instrumental arrangement is a bit sparse for me ;Chris's falsetto could have been a bit purer but his voice is becoming old, I think :-( Parachutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Parachutes + the lyrics are good, nice melody - the song is too short, had potential to be better Postcards from Far Away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Parachutes: +The shortest somg by any band that can still make someone fall in love with that band. Represents the unconditional love theme of the Parachutes album. Nice guitar work. -Could it be a little longer?! Careful Where You Stand Edit: Choose which song to review, this one or Postcards From Far Away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftrightleftArchi Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Postcards From Far Away + Beautiful piano part! - Should have been extended somehow, maybe even attaching it to Famous Old Painters :P Gone But Not F. Cotton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 OK I'll review both songs briefly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Careful where you stand + cute B-side, vulnerable vocals, cute lyrics, nice and simple guitar instrumentation - nothing Gone but not F.Cotton + good effort for a gift-song to a radio DJ, real drums - vocals, production Spies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Spies (I just happened to be listening to it!) + good "rock" feel to it, love that echoey guitar thing - bad drumming in some parts, acoustic guitar imo feels out of place In My Place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 In my Place + beautiful guitar riff, great vocal performance and vulnerability, all-around a great song ! - lyrics could have been slightly less repetitive Harmless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp3176 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I'll revive this thread again. :) + beautiful song, needs more recognition, creative melody, nice all around - should have been released, isn't known very well, to quiet at the beginning (in the recording I know), and there's something else I don't like about it that I kind of forgot...

anthamic Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 A Head Full of Dreams (title track) + nice bass - some parts are too cliche I feel like I haven't written enough... Up&Up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
