I'm genuinely surprised that Speed of Sound hasn't been voted for.

 

Same here. SoS is a pretty awesome song but I am massively surprised it hasn't been voted for either...

Swallowed in the Sea

I gotta vote Gravity

Nooooo ! Swallowed in the Sea and Gravity are currently tied with 3 each.

 

Please help to save Gravity ! if we don't see why, please listen to it ! Gravity MUST make it into the next round.

Any of you who have voted for something different or have not yet voted, please vote for Swallowed in the Sea to save the amazing Gravity !

Fix You

 

Speed of Sound is more beloved among the fandom than one might have thought ! :thumbsup:

 

Only because it's the best song ever :smug:

Please not Gravity:cry:I'm so sorry but I vote Swallowed In The Sea (it is still a great song:))Therefore I agree with I Ran Away:P

Thanks everyone who voted for SITS! It's a great song but I'm glad to eliminate it if it's to save any of What If, Fix You, or Gravity :P

#SaveGravity!!! :sad2: There is so much raw emotion in that song... only Fix You and Fly On match it in the pure emotion contained within. It's simple but stellar.

I'd say we could add "A Ghost" to that list... :P Also, I'd say Gravity's pretty safe:

Most unfortunately and scandalously, Swallowed in the Sea is eliminated. :veryangry2:

The streets you're walking on (where SITS belongs!!):

Square One

What If

White Shadows

Fix You

Talk

Speed of Sound

Gravity

 

Seriously, I thought Swallowed in the Sea was supposed to be a fan favorite or something. :cry: I vote for What If.

^ No problem :)

 

Now the real party starts. I vote for White Shadows.

 

I have A Head Full Of Dreams... and one of them is to go to a Coldplay Concert :laugh4:

What If

 

Gravity was second in votes but I am still sticking by its side for the next couple of rounds. It deserves to make it to the top 5.

I vote for Gravity.

Oh no... anyone who's reading this and hasn't voted yet please save What If!

I don't appreciate the 'message' you just gave us :p

 

Im going to vote for Fix You only because I know it will not be the #1 winner, so we might as well get it out of the way now

 

Edit: Haha jk didn't realize What If was still here.....I vote What If

Quick question for everyone: do you think the tracks Ken Nelson produced (White Shadows, Fix You, Twisted Logic, Till Kingdom Come, Proof, The World Turned Upside Down, Sleeping Sun, Gravity) or those produced by Danton Supple (rest of the album and b-sides) sound better production-wise?

Now comes the bloodbath and everyone of us is guilty, for all of these songs don't deserve elimination.

 

I am in favor of making them all winners :D

No seriously, I can't decide. I am not going to vote for the moment, I'll sit back and watch for a while. I don't think I'll be able to make up my mind ("but you know, you might")...

 

X&Y forever ! :x&y:

All right, I have decided.

*puts on brave face*

Extreme situations require extreme measures, so in order to save What If, I'm gonna vote for Gravity to be eliminated. Both are masterpieces. I thought long about it but Gravity, as good as its verses and chorus are, has this prolonged ending where Chris just keeps saying "...on everyone...", this is for me the ever so slightest fault with that song. The differences between the songs in terms of how much I like them are really in the nanometer range, but one has to go and I don't want it to be What If.

*retreats, trying to keep a stoic face, "no I won't show or feel any pain", but hell, it's as if I lose something I can't replace... :cry:*

 

Oh and I am too in love to let it go...but if I never try then we'll never know what those songs are woooooorth !

Gravity is way better than What If, because it's simpler. And the moment when the drums enter may be the most beautiful moment in Coldplay. In every other universe, this would've made X&Y, but for whatever reason not this universe. ;)

Sorry but What if is one of coldplay's greatest songs ever. Everything in that song is perfect. Drums, bass, j's guitar, chris's piano, chris's lyrics, everything is incredible. Gravity does not even come close! What if deserves to be in top 3 of not only X&Y but in all of coldplay's songs! Truly one of their best songs. [emoji173]️
