gai Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 According to the spotify user streams "fix you" is the 10th most all time timeless song. See the top 30 here. I find it interesting that most hardcore coldplay fans don't rate fix you much, but it is a song a lot of casual listeners just love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Wow, way to go, Fix You!! Still I'm a bit surprised that Clocks or The Scientist are not on the list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sychomen Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 According to Spotify, Fix You has more plays than both Clocks and The Scientist, and almost double that of Clocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 According to Spotify, Fix You has more plays than both Clocks and The Scientist, and almost double that of Clocks. I didn't know Fix You was that popular among non-Coldplayers.....before I discovered Coldplay, the only songs I had heard were Clocks, VLV, and Paradise.

I ran away Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thanks for posting. Yellow and Clocks are also in the list, further down but Yellow within Top 50 and Clocks within the Top 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBalloon Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 One day recently, I heard Clock's Home, home, where I wanted to go... coming out of a shopping wall...and it's been quite a while or even years, and I didn't remember when to come across a co. song on the street last time...another day, hearing Hey Jude...seeing U2's 1980-1990 album cover and Co.'s Magic/O cover T-shirts several times within a couple of days...maybe those are the signs for sth. Fix you really helped me a lot, and it will help a lot of me, and you for sure...may laight guide you home when this incarnation ends, or any "now" you need it, look inside, it is there and never leaves you~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Yes, a top list without having to scroll through each slide! 'Scar Tissue' would be my choice for RHCP and although Oasis songs are classics, I don't think their music has aged well (if that's there definition of timeless) I'd go for Clocks over Fix You, if I had to choose one Coldplay song. Edit - Just noticed, the list is based on spotify plays :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KidA Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'm not trusting any list that puts Green Day ahead of Queen, Oasis and Nirvana in anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
