June 6, 201016 yr 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?
June 6, 201016 yr :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*
June 6, 201016 yr 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.
June 6, 201016 yr I don't really feel nostalgic because the first time I listened to X&Y was November of last year. Still cool though
June 6, 201016 yr Author 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!
June 6, 201016 yr 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...
June 7, 201016 yr 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
June 7, 201016 yr 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 !
June 7, 201016 yr ^ Fix you video is not boring :bigcry: it has an awesome ending and run :wacky: :lol:
June 7, 201016 yr 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:
June 7, 201016 yr ^ Fix you video is not boring :bigcry: it has an awesome ending and run :wacky: :lol: Yeah, before the running ! ^^
June 7, 201016 yr However, I mistakenly left the CD in the player when I traded in the car, so I had to buy another copy. :tongue: 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:
June 7, 201016 yr 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:
June 7, 201016 yr 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.
