procrastinator Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 "Yes" has been bypassed a bit in recent Coldplaying criticism and I think it's terrific. "Twisted Logic" is probably my favourite song from X&Y. Doesn't quite reach the epic proportions of some Coldplay tracks, but God, there is certainly some epic-ness to it. And "Green Eyes" - Coldplay at its simplest, most beautiful best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlaatje Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I always thought a warning sign was the most underrated song but I see now a lot of people feel that way so it may not be. whenever i'm stressed i listen to it and it calmes me down. also trouble will always be my fave, since it was the first coldplay song I ever heard and immediatly made me fall in love. the hardest part and X&Y should have been on top of the charts, but they just never took off. WHen X&Y came out I never thought these songs would become singles since they were the best songs on the album in my opinion, and in the past my faves never became singles Square One. It was a great joy to for me to be there & hear this included in the Brixton set last week, as for me this song is sheer brilliance and really gets the adrenaline pumping. If I had to make one criticism of Viva, it is that LIT just doesn't cut it as an opening track, not after the history of great openers we have previously enjoyed as Coldplay fans! Sorry but I strongly disagree I think Life in technicolor is one of the greatest openers ever! and fits perfectly in line next to square one, the mystical build up is fabulous and it's a perfect little taste of what the rest of the album brings you, I also love that the escapist seemlesly crosses over and is the perfect ending to a perfect album. i was just going to write a short answer....

ks1227 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Gosh, how to choose? :thinking: I'll just select one underrated gem from each CD: "Spies" from Parachutes "Amsterdam" from ROBTTH "See You Soon" from Live "Swallowed in the Sea" from X&Y "C of London" from Viva la Vida And for the non-CD cuts, "Crest of Waves"! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnspieler1012 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 A Whisper is such a unique track. Almost a drum & bass rythm, dark guitars but then these uplifting synth waves. Blasts when the vocals enter. Love the descending chords toward the end in the background. Glad I was one of two cities ever to hear it live. (actually it was at a soundcheck so one of 20 people there in Denver) So underrated. any audio on record? It would be a rare treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life in Technicolorii Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 1. The Escapist 2. Amsterdam 3. X and Y 4. Cemetaries of London 5. The Goldrush 6. See You Soon 7.high Speed 8. Twisted Logic 9. Daylight 10. Rainy Day 11. Moving to Mars 12. Postcards From Far Away 13. Poppyfields/Prospekt's March 14. Don't Panic But I was listening to a Beetles song (don't know which one) and it sounded EXACTLY like the main guitar rift in Twisted Logic. It was exactly the same! So, I'm thinking Coldplay purposely or accidentally took it. I hope it's the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 1. The Escapist 2. Amsterdam 3. X and Y 4. Cemetaries of LondonFavorite Coldplay song EVER! 5. The Goldrush 6. See You Soon 7.high SpeedBest guitar work on Parachutes, imo. 8. Twisted LogicJonny's tribute to 'She's So Heavy' by the Beatles. Absolutely brilliant! 9. DaylightFavorite AROBTTH bass line. And of course there's that guitarist again. ;) 10. Rainy Day 11. Moving to MarsMusically so different than anything Chris has done, and hopefully of sign of things to come. :) 12. Postcards From Far Away I think the whole Prospekt's March EP was overlooked and underrated. And A Whisper deserves so much love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid423 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I don't know if people think don't panic is over rated or underrated.. but to me it's one of the simplest but most beautiful songs at the same time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Final Track Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 But I was listening to a Beetles song (don't know which one) and it sounded EXACTLY like the main guitar rift in Twisted Logic. It was exactly the same! So, I'm thinking Coldplay purposely or accidentally took it. I hope it's the latter. Gah. That would be I Want You (She's So Heavy), and it's just an arpeggiated minor chord.

86Timewarp Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Most of the B-Sides as well are under appreciated :shame: I love almost every B-Side in the Viva Era! "A Spell a Rebel Yell" is not playing it for me :blank: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life in Technicolorii Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Gah. That would be I Want You (She's So Heavy), and it's just an arpeggiated minor chord. Oh, ok. Yeah, now that I'm listening to it, they don't sound the same. Similar though, very similar. And ugh, I spelled Beatles wrong. Square one is also very under appreciated.

Cobalt Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Crest of Waves X&Y Square One Don't Panic (Blue Room version) I Bloom Blaum AND ESPECIALLY FOR YOU. I love that song :heart: Hello myself from the four years past X&Y is not that great and people do seem to appreciate I Bloom Blaum. So I replace them with High Speed and Daylight Though I do like Violet Hill, Prospekt's March/Poppyfields and...

James. Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I think: Chinese Sleep Chant Cemeteries Of London A Message Things I Don't Understand (should have been on X&Y!) The Goldrush These are just a couple off the top of my head. I'm sure there are other really under-rated ones as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I suspect the sound and that part are intentionally intended as a sort of tribute to the Beatles.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
