February 20, 200917 yr I'd love to know if anyone's made custom EPs based around the themes the guys have given us. I've made two myself which I'm rather fond of: The 'Serenade of Sound' EP: 1. No More Keeping My Feet On the Ground 2. Life in Technicolor ii 3. Gravity 4. Strawberry Swing 5. Now My Feet Won't Touch the Ground 6. The Escapist The 'Way Down South' EP: 1. Death Will Never Conquer 2. ' Till Kingdom Come 3. Prospekt's March 4. The Goldrush 5. Amsterdam
February 20, 200917 yr nope. would never have even though about it. what, you just put songs together that you thought fit well to make an ep?

February 20, 200917 yr I like your Serenade of Sound EP! I might acctualy make that a playlist. However i think that instead of Gravity, I Would Put Prospekts March / Poppyfields. And I'm not sure why but I think "A Ghost" would go well in there somewhere.
February 20, 200917 yr Author Thanks a lot for the nice comments guys :) I'd love to hear what playlists others have made, not really album-length ones, but more EP-length as I wrote. I'm thinking of making another one around the theme of the sun. I like your Serenade of Sound EP! I might acctualy make that a playlist. However i think that instead of Gravity, I Would Put Prospekts March / Poppyfields. And I'm not sure why but I think "A Ghost" would go well in there somewhere. I've either never heard 'A Ghost' (in which case it must be one of the few tracks I haven't!!) or have forgotten it (unbelievable I know). I'm gonna go straight off now and track it down, thanks a lot! I agree about having Prospekt's March in there too. I did think of that, but it was already in the other EP :laugh3: I'll add it, but can never, ever leave out Gravity for it. It'll have to be another bonus track :P
February 21, 200917 yr "2" Ep Talk Talk Demo How you see the world How you see the world No. 2 Brothers And Sisters Brothers And Sisters (Trouble Version) Life In Technicolor Life In Technicolor ii
February 21, 200917 yr How about the "Amazing Endings" EP: 1. Life Is For Living 2. Til Kingdom Come 3. Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground all with the cool organ-horn sound to end their respective albums
February 21, 200917 yr ^^ you gave me an idea! "Hidden Track" EP: 1. Life is for Living 2. Til Kingdom Come 3. Reign of Love 4. Chinese Sleep Chant 5. The Escapist 6. Poppyfields Huh! I never realized before that ARoBttH doesn't have a hidden track!
February 21, 200917 yr It's kind of a cute idea. Since Coldplay's palette is split into quite a few different categories. I might contribute some in the future.

Since Coldplay's palette is split into quite a few different categories. I might contribute some in the future. Please do, can't wait to hear what you come up with.
February 21, 200917 yr I think a better name for this might be "mini collections" or "mini themed playlists" or something of the sort. P: These are some fun ideas.
February 21, 200917 yr Author You're probably right Lyric, mini themed playlists is exactly what I meant to get across :) Any ideas yourself?
February 21, 200917 yr You're probably right Lyric, mini themed playlists is exactly what I meant to get across :) Any ideas yourself? Well, "custom EPs" is a fine name too. It's just, when I think of "EP," I think of the songs being made to be together on the same CD (not sure how much sense I'm making). I don't really have any ideas in mind at this point, but maybe I'll think of something eventually.
February 21, 200917 yr Author ^ Good points, thanks! Hmmm, still thinking about my 'sun' themed collection, and a name for it. Only a few tracks so far, obviously Lovers in Japan and Ladder to the Sun and one or two more. All suggestions welcome!
February 21, 200917 yr Author ^ Wonderful, thank you! I'd got Sleeping Sun on the list but hadn't even thought of the other two :) With Yellow on there it'd have to be something like the 'Stars and the Sun EP' but that still needs work I think, not quite right yet...
February 21, 200917 yr ^Yeah, I wasn't sure about Yellow. I know it refers to the stars, but... the brightness and the yellowness of the song makes me think of the sun also. :P
February 21, 200917 yr Author Well I loved that suggestion, and I didn't have enough tracks with just the sun theme :laugh3: I think I'll add White Shadows into the mix ('all of the stars in the outer space') and am thinking it'll be either the 'Outer Space EP' or the 'Sun, Earth and Stars EP'. So far we have: 1. Sleeping Sun 2. Daylight 3. White Shadows 4. Yellow 5. Ladder to the Sun 6. Lovers in Japan Feedback on running order or title appreciated :)
February 21, 200917 yr I actually like "Sun and Stars EP." Adding in Earth makes it a bit too long, I think. I'm not sure that White Shadows fits in quite enough, but it's of course up to you.
February 21, 200917 yr Author ^ Right you are, 'Sun and Stars' is really nice I agree :) I also agree the playlist doesn't quite work yet in that order, needs some work. Hmmm. Would love to hear anyone else's own mini custom playlists in the meantime :)
February 22, 200917 yr The "How Did This Make It Onto The Album EP" 1. A Whisper 2. Twisted Logic 3. X&Y 4. Lovers In Japan
