doods who the hell is that guy walking along the beach (the one in yellow)?! he is so freaking ugly. i love coldplay but guys like that have just got to go.
I think that Coldplay should make an album with only all the perfect B-side songs they've made! Cause I like some of the B-sides more than the normal album songs. I really love this song, it's one of my favorites. If they'd only read all these comments... maybe they would make such an album! :)
I totally agree. I've always thought that. It would be its own great album. I've always been a great fan of this song, "Moses", "I Ran Away", "Things I Dont Understand", and a few others...but those are my fave b sides.
yeah me too! I also like Sleeping Sun very much. They´re just greatsongs. Maybe those bsides are not the music that masses like, but we coldplayfans do. so I vote yes on making a bsides album :)
Hear hear! I remember the first Coldplay song that got me hooked was the popular clocks, back in '05. Then I got obsessed. Currently fav Coldplay song? Swallowed in the sea. Beautifilly stunningly..... ah, can't think of an adjective there :)
@dinmamma3234 They must surely be thinking of doing that at some point, problem is they have so many good ones it could end up being longer than most other bands' greatest hits albums!

as much as I like Coldplay, I have to state that IMHO, the lyrics in this song are rubbish. More's the pity for poor GHiuonmtaenrach who's going to get a lyric from this song tattooed on himself.
I love their work from Parachutes and A Rush of Blood but since then, they haven't challenged as they should have (music-wise). At least their older stuff had edge, reason and was pleasantly different.
I may agree on your first statement, but with all do respect, I'll have to disagree on the second. I'm only 17 years old and Belgian, but I'll do my best to explain :-)
I think they HAVE challenged with music after AROBTTH and Parachutes. Maybe XandY was a fail to the critics but they really faced new music on their new album. They tried a ritmic song (Lost), They tried some sort of an African swing (Strawberry Swing)... The Goldrush, Death will never conquer and Dubliners idem.
Don't pity me you poor fools. They may be rubbish to you, but to me they mean something specific and special, that i obviously don't have to explain on here.
It doesn't matter whether they challenge themselves artistically or not. That's not the point. I couldn't care less about that. It's about the meaning of the words. Even though I still love all of their music. It's not like i'm going to get a tattoo of "All of Coldplay's songs are amazing and so artistically innovative!" on me somewhere.
Wow I just discovered that Coldplay had other stuff BESIDES parachutes, x&y and viva la vida. I never bothered to listen... this is FANTASTICC!! Coldplay, come to NIU!!!
holy cow. i'm seeing coldplay next week, and i've never heard any of these bsides. and they are LEGENDARY. i can't believe i listened to the same stuff so many times when this stuff is just as good. wow.
i am a big fan of Coldplay...i wan on their concert in Budapest,and i thought i knew all the songs by them,but i have never heard this...how could this happen?is it hidden?:) or somethin like that
Meh, I have to disagree on that one :P. Viva La Vida is one of the best Albums I've ever bought. This isn't a song that can match Fix you/In my place or Lost... But this could easily be a succesnumber like Lovers in Japan
yeah they blew me away im still raving about it to anyone who will listen,im tempted to get tickets for hampden but it'll be hard for them to capture the same magic in such a vast space.
Mate, the atmosphere will be amazing at Hampden. Look at their performances at Glastonbury in 2002 and 2005 and they were simply awesome! I went to the SECC gig and it was fantastic!
Chris Martin represents today the minority of right thinking people. Coldplay's songs are filled with all of his opinions. I'm really grateful Martin is singing what others really think. You got my respect, Martin.
Probably one of my favourite Coldplay songs. I particularly like the guitar riff all the way thru the choruses. It's kinda like one of Coldplay's "musing songs", like Spies and Speed of Sound.
Yu can flip over some cd's and it has some secret songs on it. This is one of those songs. They aren't that common because it costs the bands alot of money to do. Only bands with wide fan bases can do it. Flip Parachutes over and try it out.
ahhh, ok thanks for explaining. I wish they didn't do that. I want ALL of there songs, but I don't feel like buying songs I already have to get one I don't. Anyway, I still LOVE Coldplay!!
the term b-sides come from vinyl singles flip it over and you might find a gem.i just discovered this song when i got the clocks vinyl one of coldplays best song love the guitars.other great b- side bands are suede,oasis and the verve worth checking out.
This is Coldplay at their best. It really is.
