I don't understand how anyone could like X&Y. It's awful

I don't understand how anyone could like X&Y. It's awful

 

I loved X&Y when it came out. It was because I got into Coldplay a few months before the album came out. When I listened to it at first I found so many of the songs so catchy and I listened to them so much.

 

However when I listen to the album now I can't really say I like the album so much anymore. Besides the song X&Y there aren't really many songs that stand out anymore

I didn't even like it when I liked Coldplay :tongue:

two of my favourite albums of the decade

 

Wolfmother - S/T

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUyWp4gwElI]YouTube- Wolfmother - Mind's Eye[/ame]

 

Kanye West - Late Registration

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teafwYr23-4]YouTube- Kanye West - Heard 'Em Say[/ame]

^ "Heard 'Em Say" is an awesome song. I think I like it more b/c of Adam Levine having guest vocals on that track, though. :P

 

Anyway. My albums:

 

♦ "Silent Alarm"-Bloc Party ["Helicopter" is a catchy tune.]

♦ "Employment"-Kaiser Chiefs [i'm so glad you brought them up, Bryce. :)]

♦ "The Bravery"-The Bravery

♦ "Mezmerize"-System of a Down

♦ "Demon Days"-Gorillaz

♦ "X & Y"-Coldplay [i rather like it, TYVM. Not as much as AROBTTH or VLVODAAHF, but I like it.]

♦ "Get Behind Me Satan"-The White Stripes ["The Nurse" is an awesome track.]

♦ "The Back Room"-Editors

♦ "Takk..."-Sigur Rós

♦ "You Could Have It So Much Better"-Franz Ferdinand [i LOVE "Evil and a Heathen." :heart:]

♦ "Hypnotize"-System of a Down

Hello, Dear Wind - Page France

two of my favourite albums of the decade

 

Wolfmother - S/T

 

Kanye West - Late Registration

 

:\ Wolfmother and Kanye West?

 

Glad to see 2005's Elbow album was included on the list, unlike '01 and '03, though I'd have put the Station Approach video up there, it's truely in a class for itself :thumbsup:

Also, Chicago from Sufjan Stevens Illinois showed up on the mixtape I received, lovely song, but I get bothered by the lyrics, maybe the way he sings them :shrug:

Ah :awesome: and you forgot my favorite FF song

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KDmN-SiMu0]YouTube- Franz Ferdinand - Walk Away[/ame]

 

and the Station Approach video ;)

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dg1S-NQ4MX8&feature=related]YouTube- Elbow - Station Approaches[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOuKdeZ2x-M]YouTube- Saeglopur[/ame]

1. Sigur Ros - Takk...

2. Sufjan Stevens - Illinois

3. Franz Ferdinand- You Could Have It So Much Better

 

 

4. X&Y =(

AND MY FAVORITE ALBUM OF ALL TIME!!!!!!

 

 

 

YouTube- Coldplay - Speed Of Sound

 

X&Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/size]

 

You broke your bloody spoiler, I had to quote this to see what it was. Remember - lots of code breaks spoilers!

 

:\ Wolfmother and Kanye West?

 

Alright, maybe the latter isn't to your fancy, but at least take an ear to this song:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS8En23fZRE]YouTube- Wolfmother - Woman[/ame]

Alright, maybe the latter isn't to your fancy, but at least take an ear to this song:

 

Other way around, actually.

Other way around, actually.

 

Well, did you at least take an ear to it?

Well, did you at least take an ear to it?

 

I did, and it is the first time I've made my way through half a Wolfmother song :\ sorry but this music ain't for me, not like I've decided to hate Wolfmother or anything :shrug:

 

Burn The Maps - The Frames

 

 

 

 

Bryce thank you for including this, I thought it would be passed by.

 

Whoever did 2001 so callously left out For The Birds by The Frames, which is widely regarded as one of the best Irish rock albums ever made.

White unicorn is better.

Probably my favorite year of the decade musically.

Curly hair FTW!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiRnAO0QJ0E]YouTube- Wolfmother - Live at JTV - Joker and the Thief[/ame]

Leaders of the Free World is pure gold!. And x&y was pretty special too, all the x&y hate always makes me :(

 

You guys forgot ...And The Glass Handed Kites, great album, horrible cover.

 

I did, and it is the first time I've made my way through half a Wolfmother song :\ sorry but this music ain't for me, not like I've decided to hate Wolfmother or anything :shrug:

 

Fair enough. You gave it a try, props to you!

 

White unicorn is better.

 

Eh. I listen to Woman far much more than White Unicorn, but both are good.
