Coldplay is the band that everyone secretly loves to love. The vocals of Chris Martin are instantly recognizable and the lyrics have been sang all across the world. Coldplay has gone on world tours, sold millions of albums and reached number one on the iTunes charts more than a few times.

 

Their most recent tour for Mylo Xyloto brought a brand new show to stadiums all across the world. The show even featured bracelets that every concert-goer got to wear that lit up to the music. Coldplay created a tour that made everyone feel like they were on stage, as opposed to the stadium seating.

 

Not much is known about the plans for Coldplay in 2014 but if the plans include anything like 2013, fans will not be disappointed.

 

TheCelebrityCafe.com is counting down the top ten Coldplay songs. From “Hurts Like Heaven,” “Speed of Sound” to “Charlie Brown,” Coldplay has become a staple in the mainstream music industry.

 

10. Hurts Like Heaven

 

This single off of Mylo Xyloto followed the unique sound that Coldplay embraced for this album. It was danceable, upbeat and inspirational with Martin on the piano.

8. Charlie Brown

 

This song off of Mylo Xyloto really reaches its musical height at the end of the song. The piano solo that concludes the song is beautiful and captures the energy that Mylo Xyloto gives off in just a few notes.

6. Princess of China

5 MX songs, yeah right! And where are the b-sides?

^ that.

 

that list made me laugh, actually :|

While it's always nice to see that some people actually really enjoy the MX era, I definitely disagree with this list personally. It did make me giggle :lol:

:no:

Can't agree with this list

Hmm :confused:

Princes Of China in the top 10? And no Viva La Vida in the list?

Hmm :confused:

Princes Of China in the top 10? And no Viva La Vida in the list?

 

^ :nod: That's what I thought.

Princess of China?? hahahaha...

0 songs from Viva? wow

Where's the Viva songs?!

Well I think it's fair to say that none of us agree with that list.

Was quite surprised at PoC being up there....

"Secretly Loves to Love"??

 

If you read this article on Coldplaying.com, it's no secret that you love Coldplay. You probably overload your Facebook page with news and posts, just like I do. There is nothing secretive in being a Coldplayer — we are the obsessive ones, and everyone knows it.

 

It's a nice list for the radio-listening crowd, and it's hard to not love all those songs. But I agree, the true gems are found in the b-sides and all those songs very few outside of this community know by first-chord.

You probably overload your Facebook page with news and posts, just like I do.

 

:no:

Hmm...No! I can't agree!

I agree with previous comment what no VIVA ??? and POC are ya kiddin me ???? Politik also was missed !!!!! " we are not amused "....:o

I don't think you even have to get to the b-sides to find Coldplay's best work. I mean the opener of AROBTTH and the closer of VLVorDAAHF, to me, demonstrate quite well on their own how much talent these 4 musicians have.

You could even have an EXCELLENT Top 10 Coldplay singles, if you dare to include at least the Viva era.

While I like all the listed songs, I simply can't agree with any TopTen list - or otherwise -that ignores :shocked2: Viva La Vida and a few of its album-mates!

While I love the MX era I can't believe they left out some of Coldplay's most beautiful songs.

 

This feels like a list created by someone who didn't do their research. Either that or they just googled a few Coldplay songs and slapped it together.

I couldn't agree more. :nod:

POC :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

No.

Do I agree?

 

Absolutely not!

The only Coldplay songs the writer ever listened to were some of famous Coldplay singles.

And then they write column about Coldplay.

:facepalm:

Are you kidding me? :laugh3:

The only fact that POC is in the llist deprives it of any seriousness.

NOT EVEN CLOSE!!
