I ran away 12777 Posted November 7, 2015 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 !

anthamic 1083 Posted November 7, 2015 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ran away 12777 Posted November 7, 2015 Will there be a long songs thread? :thinking: Maybe, if we can find a reasonable cutoff for "Long" :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thetwinparadox 95 Posted November 8, 2015 Maybe, if we can find a reasonable cutoff for "Long" :) 5 minutes? Coldplay seem to have an aversion to writing songs longer than that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
42Escapist 2125 Posted November 8, 2015 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

42Escapist 2125 Posted November 9, 2015 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
