ToniMoreno Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Well... there are a lot. One of the most beatiful I would say is Viva la Vida in the 2011 tour, with the piano intro. Politik its also fantastic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Politik its also fantastic. I totally agree with you, love that intro. I also love the Yellow performance 2012 in Paris. A sky full of stars (Ghost stories live 2014) is great 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon_Mx Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It's very hard to pick just one but I'm going to say Life in Technicolor, for me it's the best concert opener Coldplay have ever done :heart: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oliviyya Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 The Scientist is probably my favorite Coldplay live song, from the recent live album in Buenos Aires. I really like how you can hear the crowd singing along. Fix you and Yellow from the same tour are also contenders, I just really like how they left the sounds of the crowd in so you feel like you're there and in the moment. As was mentioned above Viva la Vida live in 2011 is also fantastic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolina* Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I've been really into this recently...the ohwhoaohs and the song backward and then the band taking pictures of the audience and throwing them out adds so much to the song 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42Escapist Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 This has changed before, but after I finally got to see the band live for the first time in 2016, my favorite has been Fix You. Absolutely stunning, it blew me away more than any other song in that set... and there were several other songs that were strong contenders for best song of the night. And I've never really heard a bad version of the song from any other era. The song is amazing on X&Y, but it's something else live. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The studio version is great, but the live ones carry a lot of emotion. So jealous you got to see it live! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowCouldIForget Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 For me it has to be Clocks or Birds. I love the energy of Birds and naturally it's my favorite song from AHFoD. Clocks was my favorite song of all for many years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 In all these years I still haven't seen Coldplay live, but here are my estimates of what are good songs live: -Everything's Not Lost for cathartic and repetitive singing -Up & Up for its guitar solo -VLV for obvious reasons -Clocks, Charlie Brown for its energy -UATW 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylobryte7 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Charlie Brown at a concert cannot be beat. So much fun jumping around and dancing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42Escapist Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Charlie Brown at a concert cannot be beat. So much fun jumping around and dancing Charlie Brown is so good live. Especially with Xylobands glowing in the dark. ;) The thought of it gives me goosebumps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaElisabeth Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 God Put a Smile Upon Your Face as they played it during the MX Tour was fantastic. So much energy! I miss them playing Politik live though. Very powerful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathieu_cpfan Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 - Politik as an opener during the AROBTTH tour was the best opener they've had. But maybe an even better opener would be Life in Technicolor going into Politik. That would be heaven! - Viva La Vida really is their signature live song and I can no longer imagine a concert without it. It seems like every song works towards the massive release of crowd energy that is Viva La Vida. I can't imagine they'll ever stop playing it. - Everything's not Lost gives me goosebumps every single time. At the time, I thought they'd play it at every gig, but then Fix You came along and kind of took its place in the setlist. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon T Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Well... there are a lot. One of the most beatiful I would say is Viva la Vida in the 2011 tour, with the piano intro. Politik its also fantastic. I too love that song, but also for a different reason. It's one of the few Coldplay songs that sounds good with totally contrasting arrangements/styles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
