gentleparachute Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Can I just point out that although Moving To Mars may have a more epic and classical rock sound, Hurts Like Heaven is more original... Am I the only one who sees similarities to Space Oddity (as classic as that song is)? HLH is just a beautiful exuberant song that is quite unique to anything else I have heard before :nice: For that reason Hurts Like Heaven for the win!!!

gentleparachute Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 And if you click on the url you can see Coldplay perform it live. Am I correct to state that it was the only time they played it live? Thanks for posting this :thumbsup: I never knew that they ever played it live, sounds beautiful! Sorry for posting few pages late but just catching up on posts over the last week - my broadband's been down so things have only been drip-fed down :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arushofjacktothehead Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 ^ this is the reason why you should vote HLH people. MTM is a rare song which is a gem from Coldplay. When they played it live, it was magical.:mx: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentleparachute Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 ^ Yeah but HLH is magical every time! When Jonny breaks out his guitar solos / riffs, it just takes the song up to a whole different level - it is such an EPIC song!!! There must be like at least five or six guitar riffs packed into that song... Which other song has as many motifs in there, while being also truly uplifting and joyful??? #HURTS LIKE HEAVEN FOR NO. 1!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Adversary Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 As this is MX, I couldn't care less who wins really, but I will say MTM is a far superior song to HLH. HLH had the potential to be great with Jonny's guitar lines but it fell prey to being a MX song! Too much production and layering with stupid synth noises that have no business being there.

gentleparachute Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 The album is MX lol :laugh3: It'll probably annoy a few people but it could be argued that the winning song should probably reflect the album, otherwise what's the point (of the album)... I suppose on the other hand if the band ever take notice of this thread, it might send them a message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
