May 26, 200818 yr No Amsterdam? Fail. It's just that, if I had to make a list consisting of one Coldplay song it would be that one. But yeah, just let him listen to A Rush Of Blood? Most people think it's their best. For good reason; he'll be blown away right from the start (gotto love Politik). EDIT: What's up with Talk being all overrated? Worst song on X&Y :P (along with The Hardest Part) THE HARDEST PART ROCKS! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :angry::P
May 26, 200818 yr The Hardest Part is quite possibly the worst thing Coldplay have ever done :( The video was also bad. I was so holding out for a storyline video for that song, it would have been such a good idea.
May 27, 200818 yr Author Apparently not having heard "See You Soon" is a crime. :( I'll get on that eventually. As for personal favorites that you guys are recommending, I tried to get in the "big" songs before I focused on the "little" ones. Much as I like "Amsterdam" and "Spies", I felt like they were not necessary. As for "Don't Panic", I know it's a classic, but I can not bring myself to put it on the CD. I just don't like it enough. It might have worked as an opener, but "Politik" does that job the best in my opinion. TAKE OFF Gold in them hills?! No no no SIR, keep that on! You can take of Speed of Sound though, because that was majorly overplayed. Add: Things I Don't Understand Animals Violet Hill The FIRST version of Talk White Shadows A Message The Scientist Brothers and Sisters *EDIT* There is no love for Gold in them Hills on this thread. :P It's good considering the other guy sounds like kermit the frog.Thank you for Ron Sexsmith love. I'm surprised how few people here like that song. I've had that song since before I had ARoBttH or Parachutes. And yeah, he sounds like Kermit. :P Love the harmonies, though. As for your recommendations, "The Scientist" and "Violet Hill" are already there. I took off "A Message" at the last second to make room for the non-Coldplay songs. I ended up deciding that I didn't need many songs from X&Y, since most of them are, like Chris Martin admitted, anthems. "A Message" sort of breaks that mold, so leaving it off was a little painful. By the way, the only non-album, non-live tracks I have are: Crests Of Waves Careful Where You Stand Brothers & Sisters tracks Gold In Them Hills Faultline songs I have heard "Bigger Stronger" and liked it... Maybe I should have included that.
May 27, 200818 yr YOU HAVEN'T HEARD 'SEE YOU SOON'?! i'm calling the coldplay police :bobby: that is my favorite coldplay song, bar none. i say take off: gold in them hills easy to please AROBTTH politik (i'm not a huge fan of either of the last two, even though i'm going to get yelled at for it) put on: amsterdam swallowed in the sea a message warning sign they're much more typical coldplay, and it seems like that's what your trying to show him. that's just me though.
May 27, 200818 yr take off politik chelsea! you're crazy! and i forgot a message. thats like top 5 for me. kick ass song

Life in Technicolour Don't Panic Yellow Warning Sign Politik Square One A Message The Scientist See You Soon Everything's Not Lost Talk In My Place Clocks Fix You. Life is for Living (live 2003 version) try not to put too many songs on or your friend might get bored of it all in one go. I've kept mine to 15 tracks max.
