LOL! funny thread. Seriously though - Chris going from tenor to barritone is a good thing IMO. It will make for more variety on future albums and he will be less likely to just hand the singing duties over to us fans at the stage shows. Not that we wont be singing our voice boxes to shreads anyway!!! :D

LOL! So, youre saying the NYT will be one of the first major publications to get it right then? Sign me up for a subscription then! :wink3:

Dont Panic... Cause it was the first song on the album Parachutes... I bought the album because a stranger at Barnes and Noble recommended it. Yellow had not been released as a single yet, by the time it was I was already listening to the Blue Room EP and turning anybody on that would listen...

NOT in order by any means... May need some tweaking before the summer is out. Hopefully some VLV b-side will eclipse old standards... 1. see you soon 2. fix you (all the haters can just deal! Im a sucker for a positive message:P) 3. the scientist 4. strawberry swing 5. clocks 6. viva la vida 7. warning sign 8. swallowed in the sea 9. amsterdam 10. i ran away 11. sleeping sun 12. lovers in japan (if alternate versions counted, i would say acoustic! The album version may actually be a tick better somedays then I like the accoustic. This song is great either way) 13. in my place 14. a message 15. don't panic 16. yellow 17. trouble 18. the world turned upside down 19. speed of sound 20. gravity 21. proof 22. things i dont understand 23. a rush of blood to the head 24. god put a smile upon your face 25. cemetaries of london

hmmm then it wouldnt really be my accurate list... b-sides count? edit: nevermind I see approximate has already included them....

^ rule #3? Why allow collaborations and not diff versions of songs? Seems to me that we should honor songs that are other versions because they are indeed Coldplay songs. Collaborations are sometimes not? Are you willing to make an exception to rule #3?

Agreed! Video with a storyline, a mini-movie like the videos of old.... I liked it when music new music videos were epic "events". Although a full version of the iTunes commercial is what I would expect. Not a bad thing, I guess.

over- The Hardest Part (why was this a single?) under- Chinese Sleep Chant (viva la different)

Chavi that was hysterical!

Chinese Sleep Chant and The Escapist could have been listed as unhidden IMO. They also could have been longer. The Same can be said for DAAHF. I think they missed out by combining DAAHF and The Escapist as each is clearly a different song but with albeit similar meanings. As a combo they are too short to stand on their own and thats a shame. As for Yes and CSC. Yes is perfect on its own. Choosing CSC as a hidden track to follow just seems strange. CSC is soooo different, a wonderful exploration of something new and unique for Coldplay. I would definately like to hear more songs like this and A Spell A Rebel Yell in the future. Reign of Love is too "childrens lullaby" for me to get into. I know that there are some that like it so its fine that its there. As for me I split the track from LIJ and it is no longer on my MP3 player (a Creative Zen if anyone cares. Me no likey iPod or iTunes). After having listened to the album all the way through dozens of times I honestly can say that I dont like the song and I am not sure why they bothered letting it be on the final cut. I would have rather they fleshed out Postcards From Far Away and put it on the album in place of Reign Of Love as a piano solo...

Not a big fan of the kooks here either but, that was pretty cool of them to stand up.

Reminds me of an Irish folk/country song... Has that kinda vibe, I like it.

Postcards From Far Away mp3s! I'd like to apologize for making extra threads about the song, but I wanted the first post to have the downloads without any trouble. :wink2: I'm a sub novice when it comes to piano, so instead of playing the music out, I put it all down in Finale and then exported it as a midi. I converted the midi to an mp3 in Garageband. Since there's no way of knowing the key, I used C Major for the sake of ease. There's two tempos, 70 bpm and 120. It's obviously not the whole song, and it's all chopped up because the wallpaper cuts off in the middle. But it's better than nothing! :laugh4: Hope everyone enjoys! :) 70 bpm http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?somlmyocvxm 120 bpm http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jyim3ijbmhi Edit: Oops! Somehow I didn't notice the peddle wasn't down for half the song. Excellent testing I suppose. :stunned: I would suggest redownloading if yours sounds choppy. Sorry.
