Rank Coldplay's 6 Studio Albums

Featured Replies

Yes they are, but on the other hand, in my opinion, parachutes is still better than mylo and gs.

That's fair enough, mylo and gs are generally the two least liked albums Coldplay have put out, because of the electronic elements that people seem to be fed up with. I personally love them and think they have lots more to offer than Parachutes, which still has its great moments but can get boring. It shows a less developed side of the band which can be nice, but in comparison to the other albums I just have to rank it as the least spectacular effort.

Well that's like, your opinion man [emoji14]

Yeah, spot on :D

Viva la Vida

Mylo Xyloto

X&Y

A Rush of Blood to the Head

Ghost Stories

Parachutes

 

(This order is random, cause I love them all equally)

 

"I live to see the world"

I'm pretty sure I've done this, like, three times but oh well :P

 

1. Viva :dazzled:

2. ARoBttH

3. X&Y

4. Parachutes

5. Ghost Stories

6. Mylo Xyloto

 

Really, GS and MX could be switched . . . not really a fan of either one :shrug:

  • 1 month later...

Gonna try again...

 

1) Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends [9/10]

2) A Rush of Blood to the Head [9/10]

3) Parachutes [8/10]

4) Mylo Xyloto [6/10]

5) Ghost Stories [6/10]

6) X&Y [5/10]

 

Just realised there isn't a single Coldplay album I wouldn't change the tracklisting to in some way...

 

On Parachutes I'd swap High Speed for See You Soon

On A Rush of Blood to the Head I'd swap A Whisper for Crests of Waves

 

X&Y would look like this:

1. Square One

2. White Shadows

3. Fix You

4. Talk

5. Speed of Sound

6. A Message

7. The Hardest Part

8. Sleeping Sun

9. Gravity

10. Til Kingdom Come

 

On Viva, I'd put Postcards From Far Away / Glass of Water between Lost! and 42

On Mylo, I'd swap Up In Flames for Moving to Mars

In Ghost Stories I'd swap Ink, True Love and A Sky Full of Stars for Ghost Story, All Your Friends and Atlas respectively.

 

Hmm.

1- A Rush of Blood to the Head

2- Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends / Prospekt's March / X&Y

4. True Love

5. Midnight

6. Ghost Story (replaces Another's Arms)

7. Oceans

8. A Sky Full Of Stars

9. O (Fly On)

10. Atlas (extra track, would work!)

 

I'd have to basically add and refurbish Mylo Xyloto but not the singles apart from POC or any of the non ones apart from UIF:

 

1. Mylo Xyloto

2. Hurts Like Heaven

3. Paradise

4. Charlie Brown

5. Us Against The World

6. M.M.I.X

7. Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

8. Major Minus

12. Moving To Mars (replaces Up In Flames)

13. A Hopeful Transmission
