The Adversary

We got a lovely poll on Parachutes birthday, so why not for arobtth? Make it happen Sparky! :arobtth::laugh3:

I'll adore Fix you Til Kingdom Come :x&y:

This is what the internet was invented for :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3: [video=youtube;1ZPQVs-y8oQ]

I have a big day tomorrow and I can't sleep :( I need someone to sing me a Chinese Sleep Chant.

It's an invalid criticism but I fell out of my seat laughing the first time I saw it (Wasn't expecting it) Some of the cutaways are brilliant.

That's Noely G my friend. The greatest songwriter of his generation.

Yeah agreed, getting rid of Parachutes is only a formality considering its not even really a song :P

On a side note, I also can't wait to hear Ghost Story performed live.

Two songs per album. Everybody lists more than two songs while I played by the rules.. :computer:

The live version of Violet Hill is extremely raw and visceral. Love it.

There's no real gain or insight gleamed from song titles. (I hope) We don't have too much longer to wait so I'd say patience is the order of the day. But I understand curiosity can be a strong motivator sometimes.

Some intern just got fired lol

Extended version of AHFOD to be Irish exclusive :laugh3:

Coldplay? Are you out there?? Throw us a bone already! :angry:

Blue Room Ep: 1. See You Soon 2. Don't Panic Parachutes: 1: Don't Panic 2: Everything's Not Lost AROBTTH: 1: Politik 2: Clocks X&Y: 1: Low 2: Talk VLV: 1: Violet Hill 2: The Escapist Prospekt's March: 1: LiT ii 2: Prospekt's March/Poppyfields Mylo Xyloto: 1: Us Against The World 2: Charlie Brown Ghost Stories: 1: Oceans 2: O ASFOS EP: 1: Ghost Story 2: All Your Friends

LP8 will be the jazz record Jonny always wanted to make [video=youtube;XDZKN4ftzns]

The only problem about that is the fear is there that you would miss out on one of your favorites because they're always changing the setlist ;)

I could see Chris going solo after AHFOD... Just a thought.

Me neither. I also can't comprehend how Chris doesn't like the recording of Speed of Sound. To me it honestly is beautiful, I can't imagine it any other way. I find it funny how the band has lukewarm feelings toward X&Y yet it is a fan favorite :x&y:

No problem, I think like most posters here it's hard to pick a top 10 and it fluctuates a bit depending what mood I happen to be in (It's very difficult to pick 10, I tried 15 in another thread and struggled:P) But off the top of my head: 1: Violet Hill 2: Politik 3: Don't Panic 4: Clocks 5: In My Place 6: Low 7: Everything's not lost 8: Warning Sign 9: Trouble 10: Yellow As for my favorite album, again it depends a lot on what mood I'm in. It shifts from AROBTTH to Parachutes (I view them as two sides of a coin really). I'd be interested in seeing your top 10 and favorite album also :)

This thread has become little more than a Ghost Story.

Even if it didn't have Rihanna on vocals it would still only be okay, It's sub par lyrics, eardrum popping synth sounds and strange song structure have all been discussed. Comparatively it's definitely the worst on Mylo Xyloto, ETIAW and Paradise are way better even despite the criticisms we may have for them. Us against the world and Hurts like Heaven are immensely superior Mylo tracks so I don't know why you would feel the need to defend it so much anyway. To me, it just doesn't have that signature Coldplay feel. And yes part of that stems from Rihanna but I think the majority of criticism is fair. But, of course this is just my opinion. If you like the song more power to you, It's just not this Oldplayer's cup of tea ;)

All I have to say is that Chris is genuinely a lovely person.

The cartoon guy clutching the albums is hilarious :laugh3: I was looking for it myself
