So on Natalie Imbruglia's 2009 album Come to Life, there are 4 Coldplay-related tracks - Lukas, Fun, Scars and Want. Lukas and Fun were written by the band themselves. They also played the instruments (with strings by David Rossi), which leads me to believe that they're the instrumentals from the songs Coldplay would have released themselves. Lukas is produced by Brian Eno, Markus Dravs and Rik Simpson (obviously evidence the song was from the Viva la Vida era). Fun was produced by Ken Nelson with additional production from Rik Simpson (this is what makes me think the song was from the X&Y era at the latest, as the band has not worked with Ken Nelson since). Neither Ken Nelson nor Brian Eno produced any other songs on Come to Life.

Having this overwhelming realization that my love for someone is unrequited and Fun is hitting me.

I mean in terms of the most lyrically insightful, least cliche Coldplay ballads

-The Scientist

-Warning Sign

-Us Against the World

-Everglow

-Amazing Day

 

There are definitely a couple but I never hear people talk about the verse lyrics to Fun, maybe because of how somewhat generic the chorus is-

"I know the falls that the water face"

"'I know it's over' Icarus says to the Sun"

 

Some special insights here. Chris has his moments.
