jo_saw_sparks Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I've been lucky enough to hear it live... It's so amazing.

Aleluvscp Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 The fact that they play almost every song we petition for makes me think there's someone really close to them who checks this site :uhoh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freezingcoldplay Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 "Fix You" (Live) is missing something Firstly, the song is amazing. But, performed live, and regardless of where it's performed (having watched vids from all over the world), it's missing something. It's either the guitar at the peak of the song, or the lack of pronounced piano (I'm not referring to the organ). It might be that the guitar is too, I don't know how to describe it... Listening to it now, I think it could definitely use the loud, pronouned, regular piano from the CD. It's just missing the power of CD version at that key moment. Anyone agree?

Definitely needs the pronounced, regular piano chords. Where the fireworks would be, the piano would have to kick in a la CD version. The bass and drums could also be less loud... sorry to be critical, just, as a fan, this is what I think would reach the song's potential. 1. Piano, in addition to organ 2. Little more effort on the main guitar 3. Drums less loud 4. Bass less loud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hubmann2513 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Why don't they switch the setlists up much? I know they did for the 1st leg of the US tour a bit, but why have they stopped throwing in one or two different songs per night? I know they played Yes a lot on the 1st leg, but it seems to have been dropped completely. Same with Don't Panic and Square One. I'm pretty sure they played What If once or twice as well. So, why don't they switch it up anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephBerryman Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I completely agree, but I understand from their point of view why they do this. It is true that most ppl who come to their concerts are not hard core fans who have seen an X number of concerts already....majority of the people who come to the concerts are ppl who only know the singles.

busybeeburns Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 It'll probably change considerably next year, so at the moment they're probably happy with a stable setlist to make sure they do at least some 'perfect' shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reignoflove Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I wish they'd do "warning sign" & "swallowed in the sea"! I'm also really fond of "amsterdam" and "a rush of blood to the head"! actually, if i could add to the existing setlist, may as well throw in "what if", "a message", and "'til kingdom come"! i also wish they'd play the full normal version of "talk" because the guitar part rocks! i'm happy to see they are doing "the hardest part"--they left that out in Boston last time.

musicman1990 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Re-thought the setlist. Should be this: Life In Technicolor Violet Hill White Shadows Clocks Cemetries Of London Chinese Sleep Chant Trouble 42 In My Place Strawberry Swing - Dance Medley: God Put A Smile Upon Your Face / Talk Piano Modley: Reign Of Love / The Hardest Part / Postcards From Far Away - Everything's Not Lost Yes Speed Of Sound Warning Sign Yellow - The Scientist (Acoustic) Don't Panic (Partial, Acoustic) Death Will Never Conquer - Viva La Vida (Remix Video) Politik Lost! Death And All His Friends - Fix You Viva La Vida Lovers In Japan The Escpaist (Outro) Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tricoldplay Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 No Swallowed in the Sea? Hello everyone! Before I ask my question I just wanted to give you all a little background about my coldplay experiences. I've been a coldplay song since when around X&Y came out (i'm only 18) and every year Ive just become a bigger and bigger fan, and its almost at the point to obsession. I can sing almost every song with every lyric correctly and I listen to their music whenever I possibly can...MY FIRST CONCERT IS NOVEMBER 3RD and I CAN NOT WAIT! I've heard only the best about their performances and Ive been told to expect a jaw dropping performance that will leave me wanting more. Anyways, Ive been looking on wikipedia for some setlists of previous years and Ive noticed a few things now. Well firstly, their Viva La Vida tour has a very similar setlist throughout the year, which isnt relaly a problem for me i cant complain. But more importantly, personally, is why do they not play swallowed in the sea? Ive noticed they havent played it since a concert in I believe 2006 and personally it is my second favorite song of theirs (behind Fix You). I'm just curious as to why this song hasnt been played in a major concert in years? I believe it needs more recognitiion :) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kspillers2 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 As far as not playing certain songs, you know when yoy've only got a finite time to perform at a show there are going to be an awful lot of great songs that just don't make the cut. My guess is that the ones that do make it are a combo of ones that the band can pull off well, live; ones that they think the audience is expecting, (a good portion off the newest release included) ; and ones that they enjoy performing themselves. This is just a guess. But I have heard them say in interviews they put a lot of time and energy in coming up with the final set list. It's unlikely any set list will please all the people all the time so, they just do the best they can I would suppose. That being said "WHY DON'T THEY PLAY SHIVER OR WARNING SIGN!!!!!" Okay ,cough, sputter, ahem, sorry I feel better ....We'll cross our fingers that maybe something crazy will happen in Det. that'll make us both happy. In the mean time, happy CP obsession!
