November 7, 201510 yr 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 !
November 7, 201510 yr 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.
November 7, 201510 yr Author 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. That's right. I added Don't Panic :)
November 7, 201510 yr A Hopeful Transmission and Mooie Ellebogen This thread is a great idea. I'm sure I will enjoy it! :thumbsup:
November 7, 201510 yr Author Will there be a long songs thread? :thinking: Maybe, if we can find a reasonable cutoff for "Long" :)
November 8, 201510 yr Maybe, if we can find a reasonable cutoff for "Long" :) 5 minutes? Coldplay seem to have an aversion to writing songs longer than that!
November 8, 201510 yr 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.
November 9, 201510 yr Author AHT 4 DUBlin 3 MMIX 2 UFO 1 Mooie 5 O Rep 2 MX 1 Very diverse voting, but Mooie Ellebogen (sorry thetwinparadox ;)) and A Hopeful Transmission have not been...er, transmitted to the next round. Don't Panic Parachutes I Bloom Blaum 1.36 A Ghost Death Will Never Conquer The Goldrush The Dubliners Postcards From Faraway Mylo Xyloto M.M.I.X U.F.O. O (Reprise) I vote for The Dubliners and MMIX.
November 9, 201510 yr 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.
