nancyk58 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It is difficult to rank the new songs - or rather MELODIES that I like while I am not particularly impressed with some of the lyrics. I have only heard the new songs once or twice (except for the 2 singles). After hearing the new songs more, I might even rank them differently. I like the melodies of the new songs, but in terms of lyrics they do not quite match the old Coldplay classics - in particular VLV, CLOCKS, FIX YOU, POLITIK and the SCIENTIST. My ranking: 01. Paradise 02. Every Teardrop is a Waterfall 03. Us Against the World 04. Hurts Like Heaven 05. Moving to Mars 06. Charlie Brown 07. Major Minus I really look forward to hearing Princess of China properly. To those criticizing the choice of Rihanna. I find her voice really good and strong. But when thinking of a good part of Umbrella being filled with lots of Ella, ella, ella - that is comparable with wa-wa-wa-waterfall and para-para-paradise. By the way I like these MELODIES, but not the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdevil89 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I think they are all so good in their own way 1. Paradise, HLH, MM, ETIAW, UATW, CB, MTM, MX (wish it were a full song), I got to hear the instrumental track of PoC at the Letterman show - it sounds amazing, it's going to be huge at least for the album, if not as a single esp w/ Rhianna (I could see how her voice would work for it) - so far PoC is up there as well. Heard HLH and CB instrumental tracks - awesome, HLH is so good - So cold, so cold, so cold... No we won't let them take control, we won't let them take control. CB will be a massive "pop" hit, just based on the crowd's (lot of execs, non coldplay fans) response - the quotes are all the "true" fans that think they went too pop, but yet they validate CB over ETIAW and Paradise - CB is as pop as ETIAW and Paradise (which i think is much more unique in its instrumentation than CB except for that opening synth voices part clearly added by Eno).

You have a valid point about CB being just as pop as the others. The difference is that people tend to appreciate musicianship over the synthetic/electronic addons.

Mister MX Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Before I do this, I just want to say that there's no songs from this MX era that I dislike. This order is almost guaranteed to change when I hear the actual album in 19 days (yay!). 1. Princess of China 2. Hurts Like Heaven 3. Charlie Brown 4. Us Against the World 5. Paradise 6. Every Teardrop 7. Major Minus 8. Up in Flames 9. Moving to Mars There's a clear divide between the first seven, and the last two. I feel these are weak, but the others are very much above average! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good; Up In Flames, Up With The Birds and U.F.O OK; (A Hopeful Transmission)Don't Let It Break Your Heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red Army Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Great: Charlie Brown (10/10) --> Classic Coldplay Song Paradise (9/10) --> I like hip-hop, and I like the hip-hop infused sound Hurts Like Heaven (9/10) --> Guitar Riffs! and I like the lyrics Don't Let it Break Your Heart (9/10) --> Perfect song when Driving Up With The Birds (9/10) --> 2nd half of this song is just a huge smile Good: Major Minus (8/10) --> This song grew on me a lot. Used to not like it, now love it. Us Against The World (7.5/10) -->Is it just me or is the live version not any good? U.F.O. (7.5/10) --> Old-school Acoustic vibe Average or Indifferent or Meh: ETIAW (6/10) --> decent enough song, but the name is cringe-worthy PoC (4/10) --> Rihanna UIF (6/10) --> beat is kind of annoying, but the water line at the end is great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolverwin Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 My Ranking: 1.Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall- This relentless and upbeat song always makes my day. 10/10 2.Don't Let It Break Your Heart- The festive beat matches the song's cry of hope that any pain or trouble should not let you down. 9.7/10 3.Charlie Brown- The intro riff is epic. 9.4/10 4.U.F.O.- For someone who feels lost and has no direction. Short but Sweet. 9/10 5.Paradise- Love the pop beat and heavy bass. 8.7/10 6.Hurts Like Heaven- Full of energy and is a nice opening track for a very colourful album. 8.7/10 7.Up With The Birds- Love the the second part (esp. the lyrics: "good things will come in our way." 8.5/10 8.Us Against The World- I like the smooth acoustic sound like that of UFO. 8.5/10 9.Up In Flames- the stark piano mixed with electro beat is truly a unique blend of Coldplay. I also love the ending of the song:"could we pour some water on." 8.4/10 10.Princess Of China- The heavy synths have powered up the duet of Chris and Rihanna. 8.2/10 11.Moving To Mars - Emotions burst throughout the entire song. 8.0/10 12.Major Minus- The dark and villainous character thing emphasizes the lyrics of the song. 7.7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
