August 3, 200619 yr According to WXPN out of Philadelphia, PA, A Rush of Blood to the Head is the 78th Best Album of All Time. Parachutes is at 120th, while X&Y is a lowly 295th. Ask Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin about the staggering success they had with their debut album Parachutes and he’ll be the first to admit that the band never expected to rise to huge commercial success. On the strength of the songs “Shiver”, “Yellow”, and the follow-up song “Trouble”, Coldplay did take the reigns as England’s most popular export, taking over from Oasis and Radiohead. Influenced by the likes of Bob Dylan and The Stone Roses, Martin formed the band as a student at the University College of London. Their sound, a mix of shimmering guitars, keyboards, and Chris Martin’s beautiful voice has often been compared to Radiohead. However, while their debut album may have pegged them as disciples of that band, Coldplay’s latest proves they are more than “Radiohead Lite”. A Rush Of Blood To The Head is Coldplay’s masterful follow-up, an exhilarating album filled with imaginative and emotionally powerful songs like “The Scientist”, “Clocks”, and “Green Eyes”. Chris Martin’s vocals soar in ways that Jeff Buckley could only imagine and the musicianship is stellar. With a swirling, gorgeous collection of songs, Coldplay have made a significant artistic statement. The full list (spend some time on this) is: 1 Beatles | Abbey Road 1969 2 Beatles | Sgt.

August 3, 200619 yr Almost all of Radiohead? All of Coldplay? Tori Amos? Ben Folds?! :D Man this list destroys Rolling Stone's wannabe top 500 list.
August 3, 200619 yr Didn't Chris say on VH1 Storytellers that they were the 78th best band ever? :freak:
August 3, 200619 yr Just another opinion poll of what is the best albums in that magazine/newspaper/radio view.
August 4, 200619 yr Didn't Chris say on VH1 Storytellers that they were the 78th best band ever? I thought the exact same thing :nice:
August 4, 200619 yr i understand this is an opnion list... but its still shit. led zeppelin being under people like Joni Mitchell , Steely Dan, and Grateful Dead, is a frickin joke. this top list should be taken with a grain of salt. lmao this one's halirous 354 Eric Clapton | Slowhand 1977... 354'th? lolololol what were these guys all like 20 when they made this?
August 4, 200619 yr Good to see that Pink Floyd made the 3rd place..... :D as for AROBTTH, I think 78th is good.
August 6, 200619 yr 78? is that all. I would put it at number one easily, who invents these polls!?:\ Before AROBTTH I wasn't even interested in rock music!
