ELIMINATION #7: A HEAD FULL OF DREAMS

Featured Replies

So now it is time to begin the AHFOD elimination!! While some call it another strong effort from the boys, others call it by far the worst thing to ever be released with the Coldplay label. So now let us determine to best song on this album!!

 

The contestants:

A Head Full of Dreams

Birds

Hymn for the Weekend

Everglow

Adventure of a Lifetime

Fun

Kaleidoscope

Army of One

X Marks the Spot

Amazing Day

Colour Spectrum

Up&Up

 

Ok, let's be honest, this elimination is just a formality that will declare Up&Up the winner, right? :P I vote for Hymn for the Weekend. Awful, awful, awful, awful song. I'd rather listen to ASFOS forever than this thing again.

No Birds shall be winner :P

 

X Marks The Spot

 

BTW thanks for finally making this elimination! :D

BTW "Gone But Not F. Cotton" should be in the list :P

 

It was made before AHFOD was released, but hey, Atlas was too, and it's a part of the GS era. This is similar to many tracks on the album IMO and should be considered part of the era :)

X Marks The Spot... that "song" is an offense to more than 15 years of career

Actually it's just a formality to see how quickly XMTS can be eliminated and then get down to the final five which will be Birds, AHFOD, Up&Up, Fun, and Amazing Day. Then we will get down to the final two which will be either Birds vs AHFOD or Birds vs Up&Up. And we will ultimately declare Birds to be the winner.

 

Anyway, I vote for X Marks the Spot

X Marks The Spot

 

Just thinking, should we add miracles as well? I mean, it was produced by Stargate as well and it's on the Japanese edition. Gone But Not should be there too. We should add the Game of Thrones tracks as well just for the heck of it. [emoji23]

Go Up&Up! Probably one of my top 5 favourite songs done by them :)

I considered adding that great song, but as it's still unreleased, it will have to wait until we revive the unreleased songs elimination. :)

Ha ha, at everyone's insistence, I included Miracles to the GS elimination. But I agree, it fits more with this era than Ghost Stories. It's also a lot better than most songs on AHFOD. ;)

Oh ya I forgot... the unreleased songs stick to that elimination. Just like A Ghost with AROBTTH.

Colour Spectrum

Yeah, true. We did force you to put it up with GS. [emoji23]

I think Miracles would make top 5 if it was on the list. I remember people complaining that a Miracles-styled album would be bad. The product we got was far worse...

 

The sad thing is that Gone But Not could probably make it to the Top 6...

thanks @Zayn Malik for the heads up on this thread

 

now I'm torn between X Marks the Spot and Colour Spectrum... (no vote yet)

X Marks My Shit is a disgrace to Coldplay's career. Colour Spectrum... Not so much (Or at all).

Why Is Colour Spectrum getting votes, is it just because it's an interlude, or is it actually bad, it can't sound bad, XMTS is by far worst

I feel like some of our old regular posters in these threads don't know this new one has started. Is there a way to advertise this?

I know, right? Where is @I ran away? :( And @Kid A?

So, I was thinking of making an artwork elimination game. What do you guys think?

 

That sounds pretty sweet, actually. :)

I know, right? Where is @I ran away? :( And @Kid A?

 

@I ran away has been offline for yesterday and today, not sure where she went but she'll come back. I have no idea where @KidA went however, seemed to have been mostly absent since AOAL was released. I'll check their profile.
