Chris's Nuts Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 so as seen. Don't Panic seems to drop 5 places every 2 years (#20 in 2012?) Speed of Sound seems to go up at least 1 each time. I'll do 11-13 in a few hrs. There will be some disappointments.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Good to see SITS bounce back. Also good to see that A Message improved, but maybe that was thanks to last-minute votes that occurred after Hope for Haiti Now. Last minute shocker prediction: Viva la Vida will miss the Top 10. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 running through the result patterns, its pretty obvious how an influx of new fans off the viva-era causes songs off the most recent album to be over-rated and older stuff like parachutes, E.P.'s and b-sides to be underappreciated. I also found it really interesting how 'The Hardest Part' jumped 16 places. Obviously that's entirely due to the live solo piano version, although it probably should be divorced from the album version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Plastic Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well let's break into the Top 20. #17 Shiver (2000) [single] and from Parachutes 6,960 points, 155 votes 2008 #17 2006 #14 ima cut some bitches #20 "42" From Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008) 6,570 points, 145 votes 2008 #30 2006 n/a what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 The lists from previous years, esp. 2006 was pretty decent, now all the awesome tracks are descending, and the crap tracks are ascending. Frankly I'm horrified to see the top 10. for don't panic to go from 5 to 15th is criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Plastic Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 42 being ahead of anything other than VLV is just wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris's Nuts Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 yikes almost went to sleep without posting up to the top 10.....yeah I'm not happy about Amsterdam either... #11 Strawberry Swing Strawberry Swing (2009) [single] and from Viva La Vida 8,681 points, 164 votes 2008 #8 2006 n/a #12 Amsterdam from A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002) 8,249 points, 156 votes 2008 #7 2006 #8 #13 Trouble Trouble (2000) [single] from Parachutes 7,360 points, 159 votes 2008 #16 2006 #7 Whoever can guess the top 10 correctly gets a free pony.....you have 8 hours until the next installment... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm really bored so I'm breaking down this list.... Absences from last year's top ten: Don't Panic (was 10th) Strawberry Swing (was 8th, and a pretty surprising change considering its been released as a single with a popular video since then) Amsterdam (was 7th) Its safe to assume those three will be replaced with: Lovers in Japan LIT ii holy crap! In My Place hasn't been listed yet. It was 24th last year, how the heck did it get so popular? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImLovingGuyBerryman Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 The order is screwed. Who voted on this!?!?! Crazy, psycho mofos. :snobby: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well, seeing as it's a compilation of a bazillion lists, the odds that someone will be completely satisfied is pretty much none. Still, would like to have seen Amsterdam place higher. My guess at the Top 10? 10. Violet Hill 9. Viva la Vida 8. Politik 7. In My Place 6. Lovers in Japan 5. Life in Technicolor II 4. Fix You 3. The Scientist 2. Yellow 1. Clocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 just for the hell of it I'll guess... 10. In My Place 9. Violet Hill 8. Politik 7. The Scientist 6. Fix You 5. Lovers In Japan 4. Life In Technicolor ii 3. Clocks 2. Yellow 1. Viva La Vida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Top 10: 1. Viva La Vida 2. Yellow 3. Fix You 4. Clocks 5. The Scientist 6. In My Place 7. Lovers in Japan 8. LiT2 9. Violet Hill 10. Politik I'm definitely vouching that 10 will be Politik, 4 will be Clocks and 1 will be VLV. Those I'm sure of. The others are just assorted as how popular I think they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Plastic Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm okay with the others but VLV :blank: I surely hope Coldplaying isn't full of VLV fans:whip: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djibou Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well you know, a wave of VLV lovers invaded Coldplaying in the past year and a half just because of this song. I met a lot of members here who only knew the last album and didn't really care about the previous ones.... sadly :disappointed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hey Nuts... I'm not trying to be picky, but it's 'Cemeteries' not 'Cementeries'. (no 'n') *coughIneedtoaddmyselfcough* Lookie at my sig for another wrong title at number 41 (how can it be so down in the list I cannot understand, seriously people WTF :angry: ) anyway, Chris thanks for organising this :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 This list makes me bow my head in shame. The top 10 really does show us what "mainstream listeners" really think of the band, though. It is interesting to note that the two highest ranked non-singles were the bookends of AROBTTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris's Nuts Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Ok Top 10 Time....We'll try to finish this today. Yeah there's enough comments on the lists to simply say...yes i agree. I may go back through the data and take out the lists of anyone below 500 posts and see if we get a drastically different list and publish that as a seperate Top 25 (and post it quciker) Here we go.... #9 Lovers in Japan (2008) [single] and from Viva la Vida 8,792 points, 160 votes 2008 #8 2006 n/a #10 Violet Hill (2008) [single] and from Viva la Vida 8,766 points 172 votes 2008 #9 2006 n/a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris's Nuts Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 wow no replies ya'll? I'll keep it going...... #7 Life in Technicolor Version 1 on Viva la Vida Version 2 on Prospekt's March (a little more popular) counted as one song. 9,607 points, 174 votes 2008 #25 (pre-Prospekt's) 2006 n/a #8 In My Place (2002) [single] and from AROBTTH 9,043 points, 170 votes 2008 #24 2006 #9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Message Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Lovers in Japan and LiT(ii) should've been higher... I just hope for VLV on something 4-5ish. And is Fix You also somewhere in the top 6? I hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
