Navegador Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 In your opinion, what's the best song to get someone into Coldplay? My opinion: If you want to get a lady into Coldplay, present her a calm and cheerful song, like Green Eyes or See You Soon (some Guy's pictures could help :rolleyes:). If you want to get a gentleman into Coldplay, present him a fast and catchy song (one of Coldplay's hits), like Clocks, Speed of Sound or Viva La Vida.

Corkus Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 In general? Any of the four singles that were the biggest from their respective albums (Yellow, Clocks, SOS, VLV). Use that to ease them into some other singles, and then jump into their non-single material. Keep it mainstream at first to make the less known stuff more accessible. Gender-specific is difficult to say. I hooked a girl into Coldplay using Fix You, and as a man, I jumped in with Speed of Sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majgirl Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Well the song that got me to buy the first album was trouble. And the song that got me to buy album two was the scientist, after that my fandom was cemented. My sister got hooked by In My Place, and my brother got into them with Speed of Sound.

ivet Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Any of their biggest hits: Yellow, Clocks, Fix You, The Scientist, Speed of Sound, Viva La Vida... ...but... i'd say shiver, swallowed in the sea, i ran away... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notlost92 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I just got a friend hooked by playing her LIJ, VLV, Clocks, LITii, and then Violet Hill and The Scientist... Now she's going to one of my concerts with me :D Mwahahaha, Coldplay brainwashing is the best :sneaky: :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAM_87 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Well all the ones that have been said would get a male to like them are my favourites and all the suposed female ones are my least favourites, although I still love those songs, just not as much. I don't think gender has anything to do with music preferences. Heck, some guys might love a soppy love song like, I dunno, summer nights from Grease, (first thought in my head) and some girls love heavy metal. Its just personal taste. I think to get someone into Coldplay, play a song they wouldn't have been ambushed by on the radio like VLV, clocks and Yellow have been. For a slower sweeter song i'd say Swallowed in the Sea, and a faster one maybe Glass of Water. Shiver would be my choice from Parachutes and from AROBTTH i'd say, hm its a hard choice, Warning Sign or God Put a Smile Upon Your Face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viva ℓa vi∂a Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Yellow, Trouble, Viva la Vida... but most of all, The Scientist. Those songs got a few of my girl-friends hooked. Oh... and 42 as well! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingtoseehere Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 The songs from Viva la Vida and Death and All His Friends seem to have garnered the most attention from people who usually listen to the Top 40... But I got hooked from Yellow, and The Scientist made me fall in love with the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffinsandmusic Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Yes, it was The Scientist. And then, a little later I watched the iTunes commercial and fell in love with Viva La Vida. Yellow is great for brainwashing friends :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_mitchell Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 The songs I've gotten my friends hooked on are... Fix you Viva la Vida Yellow and The Goldrush. Even though it wasn't one of their best known songs, when my friend heard that she got hooked on Coldplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcalebo Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It depends on the person's music taste. But generally, I'd say Lady: See you Soon, Swallowed in the Sea, Yellow Man: Clocks, Speed of Sound, Lovers in Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
