Not to agree nor to disagree, but I just wanted to give you a :thumbsup: for your detailed and considered analysis - I really like that aspect of your post... It certainly gives me a different way of looking at and hearing the songs on :mx:!

 

Thanks :)

SO!...... anything to talk about?...... All the excitement around the new album seems to have cooled juuuuuuuuust a bit lol

I also think that Midnight was a lazy move. The track is basically Chris' vocals and a Hopkins track from like 10 years ago. No originality there.

 

I'm fine if you don't like Midnight, but "no originality" is a bit much.

Paradise as well.

 

In my opinion Paradise live can't compare to studio.

I wanna get around to rebuilding my collection of digital songs. I had a lot but they were uploaded to Google Play Music (amazing service by the way if you listen to music on the go) and in between that time and now I've gone through a few revisions of my desktop and had to reinstall my OS and didn't really care too much about wiping the small amount of music actually on my disk and not online. I COULD just re download them but instead I decided it would be a good time to set search for the best quality versions of each ep and single and misc. songs. I own the albums so I ripped them and replaced the old files but I want to get the rest in line. I have some songs that are in my opinion just unacceptable like the studio version of Death Will Never Concur that sounds like a compressed disaster. If anyone has some ideas on where to find them, physical disk or not, that'd be cool.

Does anyone else occasionally get kind of sad because you miss the wonderful, beautiful, magical era that was Viva La Vida?

I do miss the Viva la vida era a lot not only because it was magical, and creative and beautiful but also I feel like I didn't appreciate it and enjoy it as much as I should have. I only went to one concert and I will always hate how I stood in shock when I was only a couple of rows away from the Bstage. I didn't even sing along to The Hardest Part, I just froze :( they were so close. Oh and I really really really miss the Coldplay puppets!!!!! :'(

If you want some nostalgia, go to YouTube and search, "Coldplay Live Midtfyn". You'll get about 5-6 videos from a festival back in 2002.

All the damn time

I miss the euphoric feeling I got listening to Parachutes-era bsides, Clocks, Speed of Sound, Prospekts March and Strawberry Swing

I miss the good music Coldplay used to give us. They're just boring now.

Imagine if the band did a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody? Will would have to do the strong high vocals as Chris' arent very strong at the high notes. What do you guys think?

 

They couldn't pull it off. It's not their style.

EDIT: Just relistened to the song. Im a fucking idiot

Not their cup of tea I think

Again, it's not style that matters. It's their range and ability as vocalists. They can literally cover whatever they want. It's only if they can do it.

Good for him! Gee, I wonder what era this song could have been from :wink3:

If they can cover "What Do You Mean" then surely they could cover anything else.

Goosebumps

 

So much passion

All time favorite song coming through.

 

 

For me, music doesn't get any better than this.

Ahhh, the buzzed hair, no costume era. It'll never be that good again [emoji5]️

Everything felt so professional but the passion was so evident. You could really feel the drive in every song.

I freaking adore this song. Best off AROBTTH for me.

It was about the music. No dancing monkeys or big balls and confetti cannons and light-up bracelets, but a big green laser and heartfelt singing [emoji5]️
