November 11, 201510 yr Cmon guys All your friends is way more interesting than magic. All your friends brings me the vibe from classic coldplay. Top 3 from the album by far
November 11, 201510 yr ^ Well you voted for Atlas, and that's a very beautiful song, so.... ya Well, I originally voted for Magic because I didn't even think of All Your Friends. but once I remembered how poor that song was instrumentation-wise, I switched. Not the greatest song from the GS era. I took another listen to Magic and it actually isn't all that bad. Although IMO it's getting the axe next. It's an enjoyable song but the lyrics certainly aren't the best and the melody to is actually pretty decent and enjoyable, however we're closing in on the better of the GS songs and unfortunately Magic is the poorest of them so it's getting the axe next.
November 11, 201510 yr Why does every round take two days now ? :( (yes, I will admit it: I want to move on to the Unreleased Songs Elimination Game...and the Live Albums...and and and....:))
November 11, 201510 yr Cmon guys All your friends is way more interesting than magic. All your friends brings me the vibe from classic coldplay. Top 3 from the album by far What classic Coldplay tune are you referring to? Viva la Vida, Trouble, Clocks, Yellow, Don't Panic, Fix You, Politik, In My Place, The Scientist are all classic Coldplay songs and all of them are different. One day we'll listen to Magic as a classic Coldplay song because the bass gives it a special meaning.

The melody, the bass, the guitar and especially the ending. Pure magic! I find it to be one of the better songs of Ghost stories.
November 11, 201510 yr Finally, we're down to the half of the album where it's getting hard to choose.... Btw, thanks for waiting, I'm glad I got to squeeze into this round :) I vote All Your Friends... It's a pretty good and unique song, particularly the 'Open Fiiiree' bit tied together with the little sound explosion and emotion that goes with it at the end of the song, but it's the one left that touches me least emotionally (i.e. I like it the least), probably because some bits feel discordant
November 11, 201510 yr Are you asking me? :) No, that was a general "you" ;) But thanks for explaining...I still see it differently but hey, each to his/her own taste.
November 11, 201510 yr O (reprise) I think that you are late to the party. That one is unfortunately already eliminated (like seriously people, there are much worse songs in GS than O (reprise)...)
November 12, 201510 yr So... is this game going to continue? Please post @thetwinparadox the tally so this game can go on! :D
November 12, 201510 yr Author Sorry for my delay!! I've been a bit busy these past few days but I hope I can get on schedule again!! Please bear with me. :( [table=width: 500] [tr] [td]All Your Friends[/td] [td]10[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Magic[/td] [td]6[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Midnight[/td] [td]3[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Oceans[/td] [td]3[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Atlas[/td] [td]1[/td] [/tr] [/table] All Your Friends and Magic are eliminated. Always in My Head Midnight Oceans Fly On Atlas Ghost Story We have come to our top 6, so single eliminations from here on out!! I vote for Oceans.
November 12, 201510 yr Hmm, tough one this, between Atlas and Midnight... I vote Midnight... Again, not because of technical reasons but because I've got less of a musical/ emotional connection to it. Midnight probably required more work from the band but Atlas sounds more "Coldplay"
November 12, 201510 yr This is really just a formality of getting down to Ghost Story I vote Midnight
