BUT I LOVE THEM ALL Equally:cry: feel sorry for DP LIT SO

Wow that's tricky...Coldplay seem to be brilliant at nailing openers but I'd have to go for:

 

1. Life in Technicolor

2. Politik

3. Mylo Xyloto/Hurts Like Heaven

4. Square One

5. Don't Panic

MX/HLH

LIT

Politik

Don't Panic

1. Politik = Square One = Life In Technicolor = Mylo Xyloto

2. Don't Panic

1. MX / Hurts Like Heaven

2. Life In Technicolor

3. Square One

4. Politik

5. Don't Panic

This is incredibly tough as the openers have always been personal favorites of mine. All these might end up in my top twenty songs (minus square one) so it's very hard to say. I'll make two lists. The first will serve as how the songs work as openers.

 

MX/HLH

LIT

Don't Panic

Politik

Square One

 

The second as pure songs, regardless of their placement

 

MX/HLH

Don't Panic

Square One

 

 

For one reason or another, maybe it's because its a song I wore out when I first got AROBTTH, Politik just isn't a song I look to listen to. Despite my awareness that its a great song, it doesn't get me personally. I don't have a strong connection to it. And for songs I go back to listen to that aren't current, I generally need that connection. I think it also rocks a little too hard for me. Not that I don't like rocking out songs. Just the smashing drums doesn't do it for me.

That would be my ranking... I think.

Square One is probably the best album & concert opener.

+I think they kinda sampled Also Sprach Zarathustra for it. :thinking:

Square One

Politik- Because no other opener has as much energy flowing through IMO.

MX/HLH-The lyrics speak for itself, fight the opresser or forever live in darkness

Don't Panic- A nice majestic soft song to remind us about the beauty of our planet

Square One- You do everything possible, but no matter what happens, you get sent back to Square One

Lit-This song to me speaks revolution, fight for freedom or die trying.
