I ran away

Yeah, definitely two different songs and both should be represented !

I agree, it's probably easier to focus on which songs you absolutely wanna save and then vote tactically. But even this is hard when they're all so close to each other in terms of quality and personal appreciation ! I may not vote this round, I don't know.

1. Charts don't display musical quality, just popularity, which are two entirely different things. 2. Just because someone doesn't like Mylo Xyloto does not mean "no musical appreciation", thank you very much

oh what a thing to do

yeah it was all yellow

Wow, you got an even higher Coldplay density score than me :D

And call it magic, when i'm with youuuuu

Loved this game so much I actually took 4 different samples. Funny, I almost never listen to MX but my phone apparently wants me to listen to it a lot... Sample 1: Owl City - Fireflies Coldplay - Up With The Birds Coldplay - Prospekt's March/Poppyfields David Guetta & Sia - Titanium Coldplay - Paradise Coldplay - Careful where you stand Les Choristes - Vois sur ton chemin Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah Radiohead - Karma Police Coldplay - Famous Old Painters Sample 2: Franz Lehar - Gypsy Love, Track No.12 Coldplay - Paradise Coldplay - For You Coldplay - Glass Of Water Gustav Holst - The Planets, Saturn Riot of Colours - Voltaire Coldplay - Idiot Christina Perri - Jar Of Hearts Young The Giant - Apartment Antonin Dvorak - New World Symphony, Adagio - Allegro molto Sample 3: Soundtrack snippet - Uncharted 2 OST Coldplay - Princess Of China Vashti Bunyan - Some Things just stick in your mind Coldplay - What If Beatles - A Day in the Life Family of The Year - Hero Pink Floyd - Arnold Layne Rimsky-Korsakov - Sheherazade Suite Op.35 Coldplay - Us Against the World Coldplay - Death Will Never Conquer Sample 4: Pink Floyd - Is There Anybody Out There ? Radiohead - Creep Coldplay - The Scientist Bruno Mars - Marry You Coldplay - Charlie Brown Coldplay - Lost! Lana Del Rey - Video Games Avril Lavigne - S8ter Boi Coldplay - Animals Les Choristes - Cerf-volant

Great, those are the two finalists I wanted to see ! They absolutely deserve it. I vote for the AROBTTH Era to be eliminated because in my opinion, the X&Y Era is the best Era of all ! Here's why: THE ALBUM - the highest density of awesome songs. Coldplay at its peak. Packed with a range of emotions that all touch you in one way or another THE LYRICS - conjures up strong emotions while staying deliberatley vague so everyone can relate to it and find comfort during difficult times THE MELODIES - really every song has a powerful and unique melody THE CONCERTS AND APPEARANCES: Glastonbury 2005. Need I say more ? Probably the best concert in Coldplay history ! Another thing, not important, but I couldn't help noticing that Chris has the best style of all Eras. Haircut neither too short nor too long, equality sign and tapes on the hand, dark jacket - perfect !Also, the band were big, but not too big. Good balance between intimate songs and stadium anthems.The Twisted Logic tour with its disposable cameras and Chris talking to someone's cell phone during Talk must have been awesome judging from the footage. X&Y deserves to be the No.1 Coldplay Era ! :x&y:

...you know I love you soooooooooooo !

This is the current status: Magic 1 UIF 3 Moses 3 THP 1 POC 4 ASFOS 3 True Love 1 Atlas 1 Miracles 2 Paradise 1 Four songs are pretty close to each other, can we get some more votes perhaps ? :)

I honestly don't know what I should vote for.

Oh dear, yes, I find this kind of fandom very inappropriate and immature. I always thought because Coldplay is a more serious band and its members are all very decent people, that they attract a more serious fandom too. But as has been said in another post, those are the fans that its mainstream pop direction inevitably attracts.

Can someone who has the Atlas Project App share the full version of the interview, maybe ? Thanks !

I know, :( :( :(

Yes, AROBTTH and Poliik are the best two tracks ! For me it's 1. AROBTTH, 2. Politik. AROBTTH is a masterpiece of emotion and atmosphere.

The alternative video fits more to the song, I think. Twisted Logic Tour vs. A Rush Of Blood To The Head Tour

You all know how much I dislike MX but honestly, comparisons to German history and Hitler (or by the way Mussolini, I don't think this is a great improvement for a comparison) are really tasteless and inappropriate. I hate it when comparisons to the Nazi era are taken so lightly.

Totally disagree there ! One of their best in my opinion. So much raw emotion in one song and I like the melody.

Only saw parts of the Zane Lowe interview, but didn't appear rude to me. Duran's Interview on the other hand was very low-level, I go for Duran. Lovers in Japan (album version) vs. Lovers in Japan (Osaka Sun Remix = Prospekt's March Version)

Good instrumental, bad song - this is the case with Anothers' Arms, I think. As for Up in Flames, I don't really like the instrumental either

The follow-up Elimination Game is ready ! Join here: http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/threads/104834-***Coldplay-SINGLES-Elimination-Game***-let-s-single-out-the-best-single

Welcome to the newest edition of Coldplaying Elimination Games ! This time we're gonna vote on all Coldplay Singles, and by that I mean all singles accompanying their regular releases. I've based the list on Wikipedia information, please correct me if I have forgotten any song. Rules are as you know them - roughly 24 hours per round, tiebreaker vote if a tie results. And don't forget voting for a song means voting for its elimination ! Here's the first round: Brothers and Sisters Shiver Yellow Trouble Don't Panic In My Place The Scientist Clocks God Put A Smile Upon Your Face Moses Speed of Sound Fix You Talk The Hardest Part What If White Shadows Violet Hill Viva La Vida Lovers in Japan Lost! Life in Technicolor ii Strawberry Swing Christmas Lights Every Teardrop is a Waterfall Paradise Charlie Brown Princess Of China Up with the Birds/U.F.O. Hurts Like Heaven Up In Flames Atlas Magic Midnight A Sky Full Of Stars True Love Ink Miracles One important change to the rules as we know them: Due to the large number of songs you have now got 2 votes each ! Please vote for the two songs you like least. For the first few rounds, we'll have these 2 votes per person and also eliminate the 2 most-voted for songs per round. This serves to quicken the pace and prevent the game from dragging on too long. So my first 2 votes go to: Magic Up In Flames

There is another flying reference in the UATW lyrics.
