New Coldplay eh?
I love 4 Minute Warning

New Coldplay eh?
^I agree... this, Moving to Mars and MX/Hurts Like Heaven are the only songs that have potential to be salvaged. I'm still overall disappointed with the band w/ Paradise and Teardrop, and it's an uphill battle but at least this song is a step in the right direction.

New Coldplay eh?
I enjoy it. It works well for them since it's not over the top. ...this band confuses me so much.

well briggs this forum will definitely not be the same without you. You're one of the people I have the most respect for here (especially in the WoM) and I think a lot of people would agree with that. So the WoM will definitely take a big hit for your absence. But I wish you the best of luck bro w/ your classes and whatnot, and I'll definitely miss your input on the forum.

What made you happy today?
Getting Radiohead RMX5 in the mail :D

Its just a phase guys, just enjoy it (or not)
What I meant by 5 years was that my huge dissatisfaction with the band started w/ VLV. Hearing Violet Hill (which I still hate), was the start to the end of the band for me in retrospect. Are there songs from VLV I enjoy? yes (Life In Technicolor, Prospekt's March, Reign of Love). But it's not an album I'd constantly go back to listen to. That album started their whole (in my opinion) "lets make anthem sounding songs". It's like you see the song VLV being popular on the radio and an anthem that they play live, and I feel these new songs are just trying to capture and recycle that. Also VLV was too over the top and just a mess to me. There was way too much going on in all of the songs and I couldn't find a cohesiveness to hold the album together. The band still has the ability to write great songs (Moving to Mars, Prospekt's March, Reign of Love), so that's why I spend some of my time here hoping they can turn it around. Even so Coldplay is not the reason why I choose to stay on this forum, it's more about the people here and also discussions in the WoM. Like I've expressed before I'm very dissatisfied with the band because from my perspective they've made it clear they have sold out and want to just be popular. I mean from the getups and the way they look (or looked during VLV), to the poppiness of the new songs, to using an autotune kind of sound for songs... it's just one thing after the nexts that makes me more unhappy. It's like they're reached that point in their career where like in the 60's and 70's you had a bunch of popular artists, but as the 80's rolled around and the more popular music became synth heavy with massive hair metal type sounding drums it's like all artists went for that sound (Billy Joel, Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton). I really don't see any other reason why they went for that sound other than being popular, and now look at the music they write and play... just the same sort of style that initially made them successful.

Does anyone who disliked this song from the beginning feel it has grown on them since first listen?
No. [/discussion]

This phase has lasted for like 5 years and only gotten worse so...

Have they lost their minds?
not pop? ...are you sure we're listening to the same song?

Wah Wah Wah vs. Para Para Para
Which is better sounding? :thinking:
-
Charlie Brown would have been a better choice for the 2nd single
that is true. and after 2 singles I won't be buying the album.
-
New Coldplay eh?
:lol: that's great! where's "sell outs" under their genre? :thinking:
-
Charlie Brown would have been a better choice for the 2nd single
definitely. listening to the song now it's much better than this paradise crap.

I agree. For me it's Parachutes+AROBTTH+a bunch of songs since then (A Message, Moving to Mars, Gravity, and a few more).
