Having had considerable time to ponder, I decided to have a guess at what a 'best of' album might look like if the band themselves made it. (i.e. the songs are those that I think the band themselves like and not just greatest hits) I went for a 2-disc set, similar to the Stereophonics' Decade in the Sun album, with Disc 1 being the big hits and singles and Disc 2 being not-so-well-known-but-equally-good-songs:

 

 

 

DISC 1:

1. Don't Panic

2. Life In Technicolor ii

3. Shiver

4. In My Place

5. God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

6. White Shadows

7. Paradise

8. The Scientist

9. Fix You

10. Charlie Brown

11. Yellow

12. Clocks

13. Talk

14. Lovers In Japan (Osaka Sun Mix)

15. Trouble

16. Viva La Vida

17. Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

18. Violet Hill

19. The Hardest Part

20. Car Kids (Bonus Track)

 

DISC 2:

1. Politik

2. Square One

3. Cemeteries Of London

4. Spies

5. Animals

6. Glass Of Water

7. One I Love

8. 42

9. Us Against The World

10. Daylight

11. Yes

12. Death Will Never Conquer

13. Major Minus

14. Everything's Not Lost

15. A Rush Of Blood To The Head

16. Death And All His Friends

17. Amsterdam

18. Swallowed In The Sea

19. Til Kingdom Come

20. How You See The World No. 2

I know we shouldn't break up the songs. But this is what I think a CD with songs from all 5 albums would look like, with each track perfectly flowing into the next. I really like the way they present their songs in concert, so a lot of this is from their recent set lists. I actually might try to make this happen for real, with a little editing.

 

1. Mylo Xyloto

2. Hurts Like Heaven (the last note will flow into...)

3. Spies

4. God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

5. Clocks

6. Postcards from Far Away (interlude flowing into...)

7. Us Against the World (with the guitar loop at the end and without the intro)

8. Politik

9. Viva la Vida (with the piano intro)

10. Great Expectations (interlude flowing into...)

11. Charlie Brown (the last note becomes...)

12. Til' Kingdom Come

13. Lovers in Japan

14. Talk (synth flows into..)

15. Moving to Mars (the strings become the strings at the end of The Scientsit...)

16. The Scientist

17. Fix You

18. Everything's Not Lost

19. Death and All His Friends

20. The Escapist

21. Car Kids (Bonus track)

This is based on the 'ELIMINATION GAME OF A LOT OF COLDPLAY SONGS' thread (which has been going for over 3 years :o) so it's a good representation of what songs fans like. (I tweaked the order a bit so it made a coherent album, but the vague order is based on the score of each song in the aforementioned thread)

 

DISC 1:

Politik

Clocks

Shiver

Daylight

42

Viva La Vida

Violet Hill

Lovers In Japan

Fix You

Cemeteries of London

The Scientist

Trouble

Swallowed In The Sea

 

DISC 2:

Don't Panic

Moses

High Speed

A Message

In My Place

Strawberry Swing

Lost!

Yellow

Life in Technicolor ii

Sparks

Ladder To The Sun

I Ran Away

Death And All His Friends
