Welcome to the next installment in the Elimination Game Series ! We have eliminated singles, records, members... and now we're gonna direct our attention to Coldplay's shortest songs ! All of these songs don't have more than just over two minutes (in some cases even much less) running time.

 

Here are the contenders:

 

Don't Panic

Parachutes

I Bloom Blaum

1.36

A Ghost

Mooie Ellebogen

Death Will Never Conquer

The Goldrush

The Dubliners

Postcards From Faraway

Mylo Xyloto

M.M.I.X

U.F.O.

A Hopeful Transmission

O (Reprise)

 

 

First two rounds will be double elimination and for those you have two votes !

 

I vote for A Hopeful Transmission and The Dubliners.

 

Have fun !

This will be fun..

 

MMIX

EDIT: A Hopeful Transmission

 

EDIT 2: Isn't Don't Panic supposed to be here? It's just a couple seconds longer than the longest song here, and I'm sure a couple seconds won't hurt.

Mooie Ellebogen

U.F.O

Mooie Ellebogen vs O (Reprise)

That's right. I added Don't Panic :)

Cheers for making this thread @I Ran Away:)

Will there be a long songs thread? :thinking:

This thread is a great idea. I'm sure I will enjoy it! :thumbsup:

Double post

Will there be a long songs thread? :thinking:

 

Maybe, if we can find a reasonable cutoff for "Long" :)

O reprise and A Hopeful Transmission

5 minutes? Coldplay seem to have an aversion to writing songs longer than that!

A couple tracks on Viva are fairly long but that's only because they have two songs each. There are few individual songs longer than 5 minutes so the game would probably go pretty quickly.

AHT 4

DUBlin 3

MMIX 2

UFO 1

Mooie 5

O Rep 2

MX 1

The Dubliners and O Reprise

I've always liked The Dubliners so I hope it survives for a while. It's a little like Chinese Sleep Chant except it actually has lyrics rather than "Sleeeeep satisfied!" over and over like a mantra. :D Now that I think of it, it's also a little like Hurts Like Heaven...

 

M.M.I.X. and Mooie Ellebogen are my votes.

Life In Technicolor I

Life In Technicolor I

 

It's not in the list! :laugh3:

 

MMIX and Mylo Xyloto

LiT was a bit too long to make it on the list...
