Tryptophan Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I love it. It's hypnotic. My favorite is Us Against the World though. I wasn't expecting the studio version to be so good. Me neither. It's actually better, normally I'd expect that to be the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Me neither. It's actually better, normally I'd expect that to be the other way around. Well with the rate they're going production-wise...yeah :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyAndy136 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Up in Flames feels very last-minute. Maybe it's just because I know that it was (even Roadie was like 'Hey guys, we've got two weeks left on the album, but we've got one more song up our sleeves!'). And UIF is also incredibly repetitive. Which would be fine, if the thing they're repeating was particularly interesting. Which it isn't. It's just 'Up in Fla-a-a-ames, up in fla-a-a-ames...'. Repeat ad nauseum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y3110w Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Paradise. POC isn't that bad. It's actually catchy in parts but Paradise just simply does nothing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinest Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 For me it is one of the later interludes, I just don't think either of them add anything really to the album and for all intenstive purposes could of been with the track that comes after them. Up In Flames however would be my worst real song however. As for stuff like Paradise and PoC, which is hated by most of you guys, for me they grew on me- expecially PoC which I originally gave it the name "piece of crap".

oldmuckers Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My least favorite has to be Up In Flames. I can't help but wonder, knowing that it was done at the last minute, what other long in the works song was left off for its inclusion. I think they were excited about it because it was new, as Im sure they are with many songs, but had it been written two years ago it would be interesting to see if it would have still made the cut.

amir.mohit Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I voted for MM but now I can see how much I hate PoC, Rihanna part is fu**ing terrible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsmith7 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Up In Flames definitely. It's the only Coldplay song which I find boring, god knows why they insist on playing it live. PoC isn't really my thing sound wise, but it's actually pretty good. Plus I like the way UFO merges into it. How comes so much hate for Major Minus?! Admittedly the studio version is nowhere near as good as the live version, but come on? When they play it live it's brilliant! So atmospheric. I've got tired of hearing ETIAW live, but I don't mind it within the album, especially with MMIX as an intro. But who voted for Charlie Brown?! How dare they!

Nikola Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showpost.php?p=5041642&postcount=11 Comming from a guy with a Paradise video avatar. Admit it you guys, you changed your mind. You, like myself, all went from - WTF this isn't Coldplay for ETIAW and meh for Paradise - to this isn't so bad or fuck yeah, when the album dropped. MX is a great, happy album with song they trully enjoy performing (so they aren't just fame whores, they actually like the songs). M.M.I.X. is the worst "song" on the record.

getithom Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I think MMIX is actually really really nice. Doesn't beat AHT though. Dude, seriously? AHT has the most plays on iTunes. :nod: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Dude, seriously? AHT has the most plays on iTunes. :nod: Either you mizundastud him, or I did, but I think he meant to say that he likes it. So do I. It has a nice African feel to it like Strawberry Swing and I was disappointed that DLIBYH has nothing to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the yellow of ur life Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I like all the songs on the album but paradise was the weakest, it's the only coldplay single were I had to listen mulitiple times just to convince myself it's an alright song. Don't know how anyone can vote HLH, DLIBYH or Charlie Brown as the WORST song out of all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellynelly Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 up with the birds, I hate the beginning but its not bad by the end. It is the least listened to song from the new album on my itunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I had to go with UWTB. Even though I sort of like it. And I guess I'm not entirely surprised people picked POC. Why though? I wonder what it is that makes this track so hated? I think it's a brilliant track. Is it because it features Rihanna? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 PoC--and not because of Rihanna (although I wish she would get the heck off my Coldplay album). The lyrics are just . . . soulless. Pit Bull could have written them for all I know. The only redeeming quality is the synth-drop and the line 'You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackplay Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I think people are voting POC just because they hate Rihanna. Don't be closed minded. It's a great song. Give it a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesTheMarshmallow Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 U.F.O. It feels too incomplete for what could've been this era's Don't Panic or Poppyfields/Prospekt's March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doritji Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ETIAW. If 3 years ago someone would've said: Coldplay is going to use Peter Allens' I go to Rio in a song, we would've nailed him to a cross. But now everyone seems to be okay with it. I still stand by the fact that I find it an awfull song. The most anti-Coldplay song in history. And now they're closing the set with it as if it's their biggest hit ever.
