Wow, this voting is going marvelously well in my book.. Hmm lets see let's see, I pretty much like every song left. I'll go with Reign of Love

VLV

Let's get rid of this overrated, pompous nothing.

 

My friend, did you notice something ? :) You voted for Viva twice in this round and curiously both your votes seem to have been counted (Not that it made any difference...) :P

I'm voting for either Lost!, Rainy Day, of NMFWTTG at this point in case another explosion of votes for Viva comes.

 

I vote Rainy Day. IMO NMFWTTG is a pretty decent song, Rainy Day isn't all that great so it's time has come.

Huh?? :stunned:

Weren't @The Adversary, @ov3la, and @beastwars the three who voted for VLV?

Rainy Day is truly underrated among Coldplay fans. How can you not love the amazing texture the song conjures up (and already makes it sound like a rainy day), the weeping strings, the poetically dark lyrics, and especially when Emily Bart-Smith's vocals come in near the end? ;)

Actually, the thing I dislike most about Rainy Day are Chris's vocals. They don't appeal to me at all, the way he intonates the words (especially the part "i love it when you come over to my house !")

Huh?? :stunned:

Sorry, my bad! I didn't notice beastwars' vote at all. I just noticed The Adversary had posted twice and I didn't know where that additional 3rd Viva vote was supposed to have sprung from, so I jumped to a conclusion. I never meant to do you wrong, that's what I came here to say. If I was wrong, then I'm sorry, but don't let it stand in our way !

Now my feet won't touch the ground

VLV aka The Pompous Nothing (The Adversary cit.)

A Spell a Rebel Yell

 

Sounds like an odd Mylo Xyloto demo to me. (opinion)

Why all this hate on Viva.... :cry:

 

Because it's the only bad song of the album

I want to change my vote for A Spell A Rebel Yell

Please, not Lost, at this point Lost is getting eliminated, someone please do something to save it.

 

I for one am changing my vote from Rainy Day to Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground, to give it 4 votes. Even though I like NMFWTTH more, Lost can't go at this point. With this right now there's a three way tie between NMFWTTG, Lost!, and A Spell A Rebel Yell. Let's go Lost!-savers :D

 

Because it's the only bad song of the album

 

Are you sure you're actually listening to VLV or did you somehow mix that song title up with an actual bad song on the album? I'm actually wondering.

Ha ha, it's alright, maybe you should apologize to @beastwars for neglecting his opinion. :P

A Spell a Rebel Yell and Now My Feet Won't Touch the Ground are eliminated.

 

All time and circuitry:

Life in Technicolor

Cemeteries of London

Lost!

42

Lovers in Japan

Reign of Love

Yes

Chinese Sleep Chant

Viva la Vida

Violet Hill

Strawberry Swing

Death and All His Friends

The Escapist

Life in Technicolor II

Glass of Water

Rainy Day

Prospekt's March/Poppyfields

 

Such a shame that CP's most experimental and daring track has just been eliminated. :( Seriously, once Coldplay gets out of their idiotic pop phase, they should really do an entire album of A Spell a Rebel Yell-like songs.

 

I vote for Lost! Wish the acoustic version made the album instead. Though that guitar solo is ace!
