Happy baby

I didn't LOVE the album right away but after a good few listens I could see how special it is. 1. Ghost Stories - this was just such a personal and intimate album for me, and really meant alot to me when it came out. I couldn't believe how different it was and some of the songs on there such as Always In My Head and Another's Arms I still listen to now and it just reminds me of falling asleep peacefully to the album. 2. Mylo Xyloto - I just love that it's a concept album. Charlie Brown is one of my fave songs of all time and the album is so inventive and amazing. 3. X&Y - love sooo many songs on this album. So so good. It's like a rollercoaster of emotions, with a perfect mix of both happy and sad songs. Can't really listen to the whole thing without crying. 4. Viva La Vida - A great departure from their previous albums, I think it was probably their true breakthrough. The sound is so identifiable and it's probably their most sonically cohesive album. I really love the overall sound and songs like Life In Technicolour, Lost! and 42 are amazing. 5. Parachutes - I really think this is one of the best debut albums ever. It's soo original and peaceful and everyybody knows this album is Coldplay. This was Alternative at its finest and really shaped the band. Don't Panic is one of my fav songs ever. The whole thing is a masterpiece. 6. A Head Full Of Dreams - Took a little while for me to really appreciate it but, I realize now how great it is. Birds is one of their best songs in my opinion and THAT VIDEO. A head full of dreams is an amazing album starter, and the whole album is completely uplifting and amazingly thought out. 7. AROBTTH - Apart from singles, I don't really care for this album much. I love the songs Amsterdam and I Ran Away but, as an album as a whole it doesn't resonnate with me too well. Best song of the album: BIRDS!! Worst song: Amazing Day Song I like more now: Everglow Song I like less now: Fun
