dcbc Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 This is the type of song that Coldplay need more of...a song that has fantastic performances from each member...the drumming and bass are spectacular...and its not based around a string section or a piano riff...hallelujah! This song probably flies way over the head of the "Female Teenage Angst Club" that are Coldplay's vocal fan-base majority, which is no surprise. This song has HEART and SOUL something that Coldplay need more of these days.....and its about SEX...mega lyrics that dont spout insecure pretentiousness.....even better! 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobodyseditwaseasy08 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 i thinking it might be about all the girls that throw themselves at chris on tour, maybe im wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlewhiteshadows Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Totally agree. Yes is my favourite currently. Chris' low voice, the lyrics (funny and clever) and the contributions from the others make it Coldplay even though it's unfamiliar. This is exactly where I wanted them to go.

Glossal Fragster Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 best song on the album for me right now......finally a coldplay song that isnt so bloody high for me to sing :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephenG Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I guess I'm middle ranged then since I can sing most of their songs better than Martin himself. I don't rate him much as a live singer though, his studio efforts are as you would expect as good as he can do. Of course Martin is considerable more talented.

Finnie Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I love this song. Very "Coldplay". I think this is the essence of them, really. Definitely a favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotplay007 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 This song is simply MADEEEEE of awesome sauce. This song can't get any better. His voice tone is sooooooo sexy. *dies* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss capa Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I wish Coldplay had more stuff like this, it's almost a GPAS 2 because its so groovy! I can't wait to see it live!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- Gabriel Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I don't understand all the reviews that say that Coldplay hasn't stepped very far out of their box - I almost forget that it's Coldplay when I listen to "Yes" (and "Chinese Sleep Chant" too). It's one of my favorites on the album by far. I love the twisted time signatures and the occasionally weird chord changes. And the introduction is pure awesome sauce. (Thanks Hotplay007 for the term) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Is it just me that hears a bit of Venus in Furs (by Velvet Underground) in the intro? From the 15 second mark to 30 second mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPsy Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 my second favourite!!!!!!!!!!! it's ace!, (my first is Viva La Vida) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collee Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Totally agree. Yes is my favourite currently. Chris' low voice, the lyrics (funny and clever) and the contributions from the others make it Coldplay even though it's unfamiliar. This is exactly where I wanted them to go. Yes has become my favorite. I still love to listen to the whole album, particularly VLV and DAAHF but Yes has snagged the top spot as my favorite. Like LittleWhiteShadow's said, clever ... and I love the strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Seriously. Kills the teeny-boppers of X&Y that we often got. It's a more serious song than those of the past. This song is simply MADEEEEE of awesome sauce. This song can't get any better. His voice tone is sooooooo sexy. *dies* aaaaand perhaps what she sad :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
