Worst Coldplay Songs Ever!

Do you think we'll get it with ahfod?

To be 100% honest, no.

I think AHFOD will be a smaller MX and a bigger GS, something between these two. It will probably have a new style created by the band.

But I might be wrong.

    Album tracks, even other Coldplay songs I find boring are better than these: Princess Of China Hymn For The Weekend My Universe Artists I don't want mixed with Coldplay and soundsc

What we could hope for one day, though, (I'd say in the farther future, such as for example in twenty or thirty years) would be hearing unreleased recordings. I believe this has happened for some older bands from decades ago. I know the guys don't like revisiting old stuff, but I think there is a whole treasure of songs which were at least halfway recorded (or entirely recorded - they scrapped nearly all songs of the first version of X&Y, but these files must exist somewhere) and which will either officially be freed one day, or will be leaked by someone. Tbh I don't care which way it happens, all I know is that a lot of us would long to hear this stuff..

I hope that happens someday [emoji7]

Aww, thank you!! [emoji5]

I fear it will, in sound, resemble to Miracles and also Gone but not F. Cotton.

I think Gone But Not resembles early Coldplay tbh. I wouldn't mind AHFOD to be something like it.

I hope more like gone but not F. Cotton, great song even though its not official. I think it will have a mix of 80's new wave and something else.

Yeah! Haha. I think they might go that direction since chris said that album was very important for the band.

It would be fun to see that [emoji5]

Ink, Goldrush, Us Against the World, Always in My Head, I Ran Away ( @i ran away , sorry my friend...)

VLVODAAHF could be their best album only if they put Lukas instead of Viva La Vida... They lost the occasion to make a duet with Natalie Imbruglia on that one instead of doing Princess Of China with Rihanna.

No Viva La Vida on VLVODAAHF?

@nikcub & @i ran away: is there a reason in particular you hate "Ink"? I absolutely think it's among the top 4 songs in g.s...

No Viva La Vida on VLVODAAHF?

Absolutely yes, it's the worst song of the album by a mile....

I agree, it's the weakest song on the album in my opinion. It's not as unique as the rest of the songs.

You think so?!?!

It's a masterpiece imo!! A total change on their sound. Violins, bells... Fantastic!!

Viva la Vida is one of my favourite songs. Of course it is very far from the typical vintage Coldplay sound I love most, and Chris's vocals on it while technically faultless don't really shine out here compared to for example songs on AROBTTH or X&Y, but this brilliant, brilliant, brilliant melody, soaring instrumentation and vibe is something that you really need to come up with first !

@a2iel: i think the key to some coldplay songs is in the title...'death will never conquer','death and all his friends' e.t.c...here the keyword is 'death' so expect to be bored to death...

 

Death and All His Friends is one of my favorite from VLVoDaAHF... That stark piano melody which suddenly progresses to a climatic finish... my friend that is gorgeous. and I also love Midnight by the way. I guess it really depends on the genre that you want to listen and most especially, on what are your limitations when it comes to exploring other styles and influences.

"I live to see the world"

From the first time I heard it (that was when it leaked with other three songs before the release of the album still known as LP4) it was the only track I didn't like. It just doesn't fit with the rest of the album, too bombastic, too pompous, quite unoriginal and average, it was the first song where they took a wrong direction that led to MX, trying to have a bigger sound rather than focusing on perfectionism of the rest of their catalogue. Still has great lyrics, but it's the only good thing it has.

Being similar but waaaay different in terms of quality, Rainy Day would have been better, more balanced and inspired. Even Glass Of Water could be a great pick to replace Viva La Vida.

The best choice IMO should have been Lukas being a duet, it could have been an even bigger hit tha VLV without making them taking the wrong direction musically speaking on the forthcoming albums

@nikcub & @i ran away: is there a reason in particular you hate "Ink"? I absolutely think it's among the top 4 songs in g.s...

 

I don't like the lyrics...

Well, tastes vary ;) and for example for me, Rainy Day is the worst song to come out of the whole Era. I just can't stand it, the way he sings, the instrumentation, everything.

 

As for Ink, dunno, imho it's a bit bland, boring, has got lots of pointless and annoying dududududu dududududud's...like most of GS, really. But I dislike the entire album, and Ink does not stand out for a positive way to me (out of GS, I only like Fly On and Ghost Story).

Now the sky could be blue I don't mind,

Without you it's a waste of time

 

Now the sky could be grey,

Without you,I'm just miles away

 

 

This song comes to mind because I'm actually on a swing right now.... Good morning folks...
