The Scientist1 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Hi, guys, I am new, but I have to agree - Charlie Brown is something special. I don't think its their best ever (objectively speaking), but it will achieve some important goals: 1) Introduce new fans to the band's greatness. 2) Give Chris & co. confidence that experiments and art maturity are not a bad thing, despite the inevitable pressure from fans. 3) Bring all the epicness of the crowd during live performances (it will gradually become the Viva La Vida of MX). I live in a small country where Paradise is like the 'big thing', being on TV all the time, but CB was my favorite from the first day I bough the album. An absolute masterpiece, makes me feel alive and ready to conquer life. It's THE song of the message Coldplay is sending via Mylo Xyloto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Rez Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 As much as I love this song, it is not the best Coldplay song EVER in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keronte Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 in my opinion are 5 songs wich are the bests in the world those are Lovers in Japan, Viva la vida, Charlie Brown and Clocks (clocks on nº1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corruptedtheory Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Charlie Brown is a solid song from the band, but I wouldn't call it their best song. But this song would be around the top 5 or top 10 best songs that they've released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplayearth Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Definitely not the best coldplay song ever, but at least in the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matter-Eater Lad Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I like Wonderwall better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolverwin Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I have to say no. I still think Every Teardrop is better if we speak of MX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalex1138 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Definitely not a favorite in my opinion. Maybe the live version is a bit better, but the album version is way too overproduced. I wouldn't even say it's in the top 20 honestly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingzilla Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 My top 5 are: 1. Clocks 2. Poltik 3. Amsterdam 4. Strawberry Swing 5. Trouble And Charlie Brown isn't close. I like the song, but I find it sort of boring. I agree with the poster above me that it's over produced, like a lot of MX. I like the first verse, but then it always seems to lose me. I'd say its in the top 15, but then, I'd need to think about that really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harondor Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 My top 5 : 1 Fix You 2 Violet Hill 3 Strawberry Swing 4 The Scientist 5 Hurts Like Heaven Charlie Brown is certainly in the top 10 after songs like Paradise, ETIAW or In My Place.
