June 21, 200818 yr Here we go again...How come Yellow is so hated now? Its a classic, explain this to me again somebody...
June 21, 200818 yr Don't get me wrong, I love Yellow, but it's one of those songs that is given more credit than it needs, or it's too popular among celebrities *cough*Britney*cough* OR it's the only known Coldplay song to some. So when random non-CPers think of Coldplay, usually Yellow automatically comes to mind. However, there are other songs just as good, undiscovered by them. It just depends what your definition for overrated is. If I'm being personal, then to me it's not overrated. But generally speaking, it is overrated "out there." Hard to explain, and I'm probably not making any sense. *exhales*
June 21, 200818 yr Overrated: Speed of Sound Underrated: Green Eyes (How can someone not love that song?! I really love Chris' voice in this song.) :stunned:

June 21, 200818 yr first of all, how can everyone so avidly hate on "Fix You"? I love it, its one of my favorite songs ever. What is so bad about it, please can someone explain this to me? Anyway, I have to list a few Overrated: Trouble, Clocks (just barely), White Shadows, Talk (I would also say What If but I dont think anyone really loves it that much) Underrated: Spies, Sparks, FIX YOU, Hardest Part, Swallowed in the Sea, Life Is For Living, Amsterdam, See You Soon, A Whisper :cool: I love Fix You. It's one of my favorite songs. But, I just think it's overrated because it use to be played every 5 minutes everywhere. *shrugs* i unno, I don't hate it though. I definitely don't think FIX YOU is underrated. Swallowed in the Sea is definitely, Amsterdam I don't think is that underrated, A Whisper definitely, The hardest part YES, Spies possibly...

See I wasnt a CP fan back when X&Y first came out, so I dont know how much it was played.
June 21, 200818 yr Daylight annoys me now, I used to LOVE it way back when. but now the only bit I like is the middle 8. the "Slowly breaking through the daylight" bit, the rest drags itself along.

JD, I'm disappointed. I usually find myself agreeing with you, but not this time. Daylight is one of my faves off AROBTTH! I think some people are getting Overrated confused with Overplayed. Fix You and Yellow are both great songs - not my favourites, but better than most of the rubbish that's out there. It's just that they've been played on absolutely everything - I think that's probably why Chris chose to sing Fix You on Extras. That scene wouldn't have worked so well if he'd launched in to Clocks
June 21, 200818 yr i have several for both categories, actually, but i'll pick two for now: OVERRATED: how you see the world UNDERRATED: see you soon
June 21, 200818 yr over- The Hardest Part (why was this a single?) under- Chinese Sleep Chant (viva la different)
June 22, 200818 yr Overrated- Talk underrated- Strawberry Swing, most of the reviews I've read say that it's a dud. :confused: Hmm.
June 22, 200818 yr How is yellow overrated? it's their best song by a mile and a half. overplayed... yes, overrated... not a chance. :P
