Haven't seen any posts around the site on this subject, so thought I'd make one of my own. :D I personally greatly enjoy playing Coldplay's music on my keyboard, guitar, and harmonica, and was just wondering how many other people on here enjoy playing Coldplay's music themselves, as well.

If so, what instruments have you tried playing Coldplay's music on? Which instruments do you most enjoy playing Coldplay's music on? Which Coldplay songs do you enjoy playing most, any why? Did you teach yourself or do you read music? Just curious to see people's replies... :dazzled:

i enjoy playn viva la vida weneva wea eva

every coldplay song out there, that I could play

I play violin, guitar, and piano. I have attempted playing Coldplay songs on piano and guitar. Clocks is so fun to play on piano! I haven't really tried playing Clocks on guitar before. I love playing Viva la Vida on guitar a lot. I'm trying to teach myself Major Minus and Charlie Brown on guitar. I haven't attempted to play anything Coldplay on violin before but I would probably try Viva la Vida or Paradise since those have the best and largest string sections of any of their songs. I forgot to add I usually learn from tabs or sheet music. I'm trying to get better at teaching myself how to play more by ear.

* thread moved *

Sometimes I just try and see how fast I can play clocks on piano, and at the moment I love playing Charlie Brown and Paradise on both guitar and piano. (I actually think the main riff in Charlie Brown sounds better on piano than guitar).

Swallowed in the sea is very fun to play on an acoustic and Posrcards from Far Away is a treat on piano.

lovers in japan acoustic on guitar!

I play more piano then guitar and I sing as well...most of these songs I learned by ear, or by youtube:

 

Lovers in Japan (Studio & Acoustic)

Fix You (Plus Outro)

Us Against the World

Don't Let It Break Your Heart (Plus Outro)

The Scientist

Goodbye Good Night (Me and the Champion Tabbed It)

Life is for Living (Plus Charlie Brown Outro)

Hurts like Heaven

Viva La Vida

 

And the rest i cant remember

I could play any Coldplay song on guitar, but I enjoy Major Minus the most. :)

Hmm... which one i enjoy the most? Maybe Christmas Lights, Moving To Mars and Paradise at the moment.

At the moment, Christmas lights has been all I play...

I also love playing the outro of Charlie Brown into Life is For Living...

 

 

Politik has to be my all-time favorite though. =)

 

P.S. -- all on piano

piano:

glass of water

viva la vida

charlie brown

 

guitar:

don't panic

warning sign

I can play Politik, The Scientist, Trouble and Clocks on piano and am currently learning Amsterdam :) I would also love to be able to play 42 or Death and All His Friends though!

"A Message" is REALLY fun on guitar. 'Specially with others.

 

And I love playing "Amsterdam" on piano.

I really enjoy playing Christmas lights, and paradise right now.

I really enjoy to play HLH on guitar, I'm not that good at it like Jonny Though:D And the solo from Paradise:D

And further I love to drum to Paradise, ETIAW , Charlie Brown, DAAHF, What If, DLIBYH. They're all fun to drum but not so difficult.

In Guitar: Don't Panic, Major Minus and Hurts like Heaven

Piano: Clocks

Postcards From Far Away and Paradise are probably the most fun to play on piano, but I just love how those opening chords from Amsterdam sound so I like playing that too.

 

On guitar I'll go with Major Minus and the riffs from Hurts Like Heaven as being the most fun.
