Wow. Excuse me for asking, but, is this your job? Has coldplaying.com employed you full time to get statistics? :P

Really, though, very cool, very well organized. I don't understand most of it, like the whole concept of the point system, but it's cool nonetheless

The Scientist rightfully won best song...

 

A Rush of Blood to the Head rightfully won best album...

 

But my god, Talk should have won best single...

I haven't even had the chance yet to get through all of these fantastic pages - but Nik, let me tell you what a wonderful job you did, thanks a lot for putting so much effort into it!!

wow man that was increadibly details in organising all the points, well done

Woohoooooo---Gravity's second & The Scientist's first :happy: :dance:

hey, this is such a GREAT job!

BTW... rapidshare's link is not working... would someone re-upload it?

congrats!

Given this week's news that all three Coldplay albums are featured in the UK's top 20 biggest selling albums of the 21st century, this further breakdown might be a useful bump ;)

i was thinking of doing this in the future. or something along these lines. my idea is every month we do a countdown for a different artist (10 in total) and the top 10 songs move to the finals. from there we do a championship where we count down the top 100 songs. i'd do it but i go to camp and wouldn't be able to do it for 2 months:(

this thread is awesome. how could they count the points for every song?
