UpWithTheBirds Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 My dad, who has a crazy and varying taste in music, used to play ARoBttH in the car for us and I remember hearing Politik and thinking it was very loud and noisy. Keep in mind I was young, probably 7 or 8, and trying to take naps to something like Politik is not an easy task. I remember loving Viva La Vida, and I downloaded Parachutes but nothing really came from it. This summer the Every Teardrop is a Waterfall EP reminded me how good they were. So Politik was my first song but ETiaW definitely was the one that mattered to me :laugh2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Politik was my first song but ETiaW definitely was the one that mattered to me :laugh2: The first song i listen of them was Trouble, I was 13 years old and you know at that age between 13 and 17 you are an outsider and the lyrics of the song were what I was feeling at that time. Yellow was my 2th song and it was completely the opposite, it was as if he would say'' never mind, you're beautiful, you are part of this world, you have a mission that's why the stars shine for you'' Never a band or a song touch the bottom of my heart like that ever! Politik is one of my all time favorite song about them! Such a strong message and feeling with the words ''Give me love, love over this'' that song was my anthem for many years.

EJperfection Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I first heard of Coldplay when I heard Yellow, that was when I was at College, I was about 18 at the time, I was immediately attracted to them, but it took me until the Viva La Vida tour to see them for the first time, but I am seeing them for the second time this year at Emirates Stadium, they are my favorite band, and I will have a bit of a Take That moment whenever they decide to break up. I think WE are the oldest ones! lol And I would have the same reaction if they decide to break up :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YellowTeardrops13 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yellow. I didn't get too into them when this song came out. It was on my NOW That's What I Call Music! 6 CD, so I thought it was a great song. My truely first Coldplay song I've ever listened to, if that one doesn't count, was Clocks. My dad is in love with this song! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randorolian Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I think mine was Trouble. I was born in '96 and my dad was a massive fan from the moment he heard Parachutes. I remember hearing Trouble as a very young boy, they've pretty much been the soundtrack to my life :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Probably Clocks on a BBC advert. Then I saw the music video a couple of years later. It was pretty boring stuff, I wasn't impressed. Then when I'd grown up a bit, I used to listen to the radio every day. One day, Jo Whiley said she had the new Coldplay song, Violet Hill to play. So I listened, and downloaded it, was totally in love with it and got the backcatalogue, piece by piece, via the Wembley gig, which was one of the best days of my life. Life story, there.

randomnames Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Without knowing it, probably Clocks. From my memory, Speed of Sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lu'kaa Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Fix You. It was the video actually, so it's the first Coldplay song I ever saw and heard ! I knew they were a huge and appreciated band, but I wasn't a huge fan before Viva la Vida came out and kicked everything's ass :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovebeginswith Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 It was yellow. But in the same week I heard Shiver. My brother loved that song. I remember how jealous he was when I say them live @Witnness. He now can't stand them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dany93 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Fix You :dazzled: I could never thank that boy enough for sending me that song via msn because I "had to listen to it". He changed my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaisin Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Yellow in 2000 and it changed my life, it was so good that i wanted to listen to the rest of the record so i went out and bought Parachutes (this was before the iTunes/P2P days) and they became my favourite group :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvdmm Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 clocks in 2002. i had never been so emotionally captivated by anything until i heard that song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyBellaStrawberry Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 The Scientist in 2002. I disliked it and disliked Coldplay. I thought it was too slow. Thank goodness my tastes change when I first heard Fix You in 2005. It's beauty pulled me in so deep that I've been in absolute love with Coldplay since then :smug2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
