So which songs will be dropped from the previous tour for the next one which were regulars in the setlist? Which ones will be dusted off and re emerge after a few years?

 

Personally I think Speed of Sound will be dropped or limited to rare appearances. It's a strange song is SoS. You couldn't get away from it in summer 2005 but it seems not to have stood the test of time for the band or that emphatic when performed live- rare for Coldplay. I doubt whether we'll see much of Violet Hill. If I was to bet on songs from Viva that would be retained it'd probably be Viva itself and Lovers In Japan as well as one of either Lost or Violet Hill. I'd like to see more songs from X&Y again because I really did think the tracks from that album sounded better live.

 

For songs that will re emerge I'm banking on a return for Amsterdam and Don't Panic which was cruelly dropped during the VLV!

 

What do you think? What songs would you like to see performed?

They need to bring back:

 

Don't Panic

Everything's Not Lost

Amsterdam

Swallowed In The Sea

A Message

Talk

Twisted Logic

A Rush of Blood to the Head (wishful thinking)

 

I agree about Speed of Sound. Honestly, the song live just doesn't do it for me.

 

They'll probably drop:

 

Yes

Cemeteries of London

Glass of Water

42

well the one song that they will never drop is yellow

they have to bring back more early periods songs. They only play yellow from parachutes, it's a HUGE pity.. their best album dropped for playing some recent stuff. it's a pity really...

 

and yeah, we need back amsterdam and a rush of blood to the head, also daylight..

 

i'm too hopeful..

Oh God I wish they would do Amsterdam.....
