ebloom98 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I was explaining to my Music Teacher that people would love some of the songs more if they were acoustics, he challenged me and we both bet 5 bucks if my class liked an acoustic version of ETiaW or any song from Mylo Xyloto more then i win if they liked the umm err high processed? one then he wins. To be quite frank i want five dollars. I found an acapella version of ETiaW but if anyone thinks i could use a better Mylo Xyloto song tell me. What i really need is a beat for beat acoustic instrumental track to put in on top of. I want the best sounding thing so i can create the perfect ETiaW So once again: If you have a acoustic instrumental beat for beat version of ETiaW or another song option from MX. Any advice or links will help. Thanks so much i love coldplaying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinest Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 You are not going to win that bet. Many of the songs need the synth stuff if they include them and the instramental versions I've heard are pretty weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebloom98 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 NEVER GIVE UP *RAISES SWORD IN BOTH ARMS* *YELLS "FOR NARNIA"* it shall work.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Trinest is right. I can never find myself enjoying an acoustic cover of a song more than the original. I have yet to find any cover better than the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I'm not a big fan of acoustic stuff either as not all can work acoustically. One acoustic song that I love is Lovers in Japan. The piano version of Yellow is pretty good too. Don't think I've ever heard any acoustic stuff from the MX era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strikie Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 isn't the BBC hurts like heaven acoustic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafaelchampion Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 That song will not work well acoustic. Dude, do you have Guitar Pro 6? I've written entire ETIAW on it so if you want some not-that-acoustic tabs and sheets and stuff I can post for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Timewarp Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 UFO is an acoustic song by itself, do that. If your a piano go-er like mwah, Up in flames or Paradise And btw can I have the ETIAW GP6 file please ^ :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdplayingfromKansas Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 DLIBYH could probably work as an acoustic :thinking: Mostly because the main instruments aren't the synths themselves, but the piano and guitar. . . . and maybe UWTB also. Just fill in the transition with some piano chords and have Jonny/Will/Guy do the background singing in the second stanza. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebloom98 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 i have a semi-put together piano version but you guys are right its kinda crap... 5 dollars... gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiotFever Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Princess of China. Believe it or not it would work very well as acoustic. I may do one if I find acapella version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafaelchampion Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I know right. I and my friend recorded it while I played the guitar and It got very nice. Maybe I can post it someday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinrich42 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Well, there's a really good PoC cover here, and it's acoustic! Don't know if people will find it better than the original one, though... [ame= ] [/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead you'd have people judging the two bands instead of the arrangement of the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 It's a bet you could certainly win...proof: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHFkQ-3FHTY]chris martin and johnny buckland - every tear drop is a waterfall- live at little noise 2011.mp4 - YouTube[/ame] The only problem is that the Little Noise sessions are played somewhat sloppily in terms of Chris stopping songs, audience noise/singing (as in Paradise), and tambourine lady.

Nikola Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 That was weird. :D But I generally like to stick to the principle of less is more.
