Just imagine, X&Y was released five years ago, in England on June 6, and in North America on June 7. Time has gone so fast..., hasn't it?:thinking:

Does somebody feel nostalgic?

 

:surprised: wow...

 

this means i have been a Coldplay fan for five years now! this makes me feel so special. :blush::P

 

*listens to X&Y*

wow! It doesn't seem like that long ago

I love X&Y. The first time I listened to it was a few months after I bought VLV. And I immediately loved White Shadows.

This is the reason why I felt so nostalgic today. :wacky:

I don't really feel nostalgic because the first time I listened to X&Y was November of last year. Still cool though

I started listening Coldplay from X&Y. Before that I knew only Clocks.

Then I was very striked by X&Y (song) during radio review of the album, so I immediately ran to the music store:rolleyes:

Can't believe that it was 5 years ago!

So much better than Viva.

five years...wow.

Wow. So five years ago tomorrow morning, I was standing outside HMV in the pouring rain waiting for it to open before I ran off to class. Wow.

 

Well, the weather hasn't changed, it's pouring rain. :tongue: Neither has my writing portfolio. That class I ran off to was the beggining of 3 years and change of stress induced writer's block. The last time I got something half-finished was for it.

 

But my word has my music collection and tastes changed. X&Y was a very big beginning in a way...

I wasn't a fan during X & Y, but I wish I had been. :embarrassed:

awesome images :D

 

 

5 years, and 10 parachutes :wacky: :uhoh:

I love X & Y :wacky:

 

I don't see why Chris was so insecure about it... Swallowed in the Sea, Til Kingdom Come, A Message and What If get me every time. :P

Not at all, maybe after 10 more years or so.

Guess I'll have to listen to it, then :nice:

Five years ?

 

So I remember, five years ago was the first time I heard of them. Some journalist on TV said X&Y was a masterpiece. I thought something like "Really ? It seems so weird, with those colours cubes on the jacket" :lol:

 

Then I looked the Fix You video... and found it a bit boring ! It took me 3 years and the Viva album to realize how good they are. Now Fix You is in my Top 3 of the best songs ever !

^ Fix you video is not boring :bigcry:

 

it has an awesome ending and run :wacky:

 

:lol:

Five years... wow. I remember buying the CD and playing it constantly in my car. Then on a 4-hour drive I was blaring it too loud and my speakers busted. (Who would think that Coldplay could ruin car speakers? :lol: ) Fortunately I was going to trade in my car in a couple of weeks anyway, so I didn't have to worry about repairing the speakers. However, I mistakenly left the CD in the player when I traded in the car, so I had to buy another copy. :tongue:

:lol:

 

Yeah, before the running ! ^^

But maybe you've made the new owner a Coldplay fan as well :laugh3:

 

'X&Y' started everything off for me in a bigger way with Coldplay.

Therefore I guess it's still my 'fave' album and I could listen to 'Speed Of Sound' for the rest of my life on repeat and wouldn't feel bored at all ;)

 

It's pretty hard to chose a fave song of the album as I really like them all a lot. :)

 

Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the Twisted Logic tour back then. When I decided that I wanted to go (I found no one who would join me), the tickets were sold out already so I missed that part ... :(

 

Five years ... time really flies :stunned:

I remember buying it when it first came out. :wacky: Oh, good times.

still my favourite album! :cool4:

still my favourite album! :cool4:

Really??? :shocked2:

 

I mean so many 'early times' fans seem to tear it apart and say it's their least preferred album ;) :laugh3:

 

I honestly thought that I was one of the very few people who like it massively :) :cool:

you see now i feel old:P

Back then, I was 12, careless, stupid and had no idea of THE music. The first time I listened to this album was about an year ago. Not my top favourite (that's AROBTTH and nothing can beat it), but it kind of has grown on me.
