Open Up Your Eyes!!!!! POLITIK ALL THE WAY!!

[mayrn43]

Well, it's gotta be Clocks

[I ran away]

It was a very tough choice for me between Politik and Arobtth, but in the end I chose Arobtth.

[nvdmm]

I still haven't voted, mainly because it's too difficult. The whole album is a masterpiece and the songs work together and compliment each other so well it's the only album ever for me where I cannot single out a track as the "best".

 

I guess this is to be expected with the best album of all time.

[Sparky]

For me, it's between 'In My Place' and 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head'. The first is my personal favourite but the latter is one of their best musically imo, so voted for that :)

 

'Politik' could of won if the studio version had the same gusto as the live rendition :P

[LAUREL72]

I really love the title song ... it was intense and melodic and mysterious and lovely. I think it's underrated, I rarely see people talk about it.

 

A good indicator of songs is how you view them many years later. Songs that can be bypassed aren't great -- for example I never listen to "Ghost Stories" but can listen to several tracks from ROBTTH, X&Y and Viva year in and out.

 

Chris Martin said on Canadian TV that he considered "Politik" one of their top 3 songs. It's one my least favourites so that was interesting. Not that even the "least" is bad -- I can listen to all the songs endlessly. I do love the ending of Politik though and wish there was more of that part within the general song.

 

My top 5:

 

1) In My Place

2) Rush of Blood to the Head

3) The Scientist

4) Green Eyes

5) Clocks

[LAUREL72]

Wow ... I'm really surprised that "In My Place" faired so poorly -- not even into double digits!

 

I still hear those riffs and remember why I fell in love with Coldplay. And despite the fact many guys love to dismiss the band, they always dance to that tune at parties : )

Politik is best followed by Clocks/The Scientist.GPASUYF and Amsterdam are highly underrated

[Nikcub]

Clocks! and Warning Sign

[arushofjacktothehead]

Clocks, Politik, Amsterdam:cool:

[arushofjacktothehead]

And GPASUYF & Daylight :D

Yess!!! The rightful winner!

Politik and AROBTTH in my opinion, clocks is the most well known song on the album, that's why it was voted the best.

This. Although, I'm not too annoyed Clocks won. It's right there after those two.

Yeah, i'm not annoyed either. It has it's own place in Coldplay history since it's their most well known song besides VLV and Yellow.

[I ran away]

Yes, AROBTTH and Poliik are the best two tracks ! For me it's 1. AROBTTH, 2. Politik. AROBTTH is a masterpiece of emotion and atmosphere.

Yeah Clocks is one of the few 'big' songs from an album that also happen to be the best songs from the album

[MinceSpies]

I think Politik is one of their best songs and it's a shame it's not as well known as Clocks.
