Coldplay
They catch a great deal of shit (mostly undeserved, in my opinion), but Coldplay at the very least have a strong list of singles to their name. Even at this relatively early point in their career, they could release a damn fine greatest-hits CD...if such releases were still relevant in the era of the MP3. Which of their songs is your favorite?

Re: Favorite Coldplay song?
There's no poll choice for "none of the above" - - the only correct answer for U2-lite Coldplay.

I used to be hardcore Coldplay fan until the last album. It actually was good but it was such a disappointment for me personally. I can barely listen to any of the songs except Hurts Like Heaven.
I have the same Top 3 in that order.

Re: Favorite Coldplay song?
Ugh, I accidentally voted for "Yellow" but it's "The Scientist" I meant to vote for. Not that I dislike "Yellow."

Re: Favorite Coldplay song?
Unusual (for Coldplay) new song and video, which many people are comparing to Bon Iver:

Re: Coldplay
I like it! I wonder if this is the direction they're going with the whole album, I'm excited!

Re: Coldplay
Definitely heavy influence from Bon Iver. Not sure how I feel about the song.

Re: Coldplay
Yeah the song is amazing, but I don't want the whole album to sound like this (which I doubt it will). I would love to hear another "acoustic" album a la Parachutes or A Rush of Blood to the Head. If I wanted to hear this, I would just pop in For Emma, Forever Ago.

Re: Coldplay
Awful choice for a single, but the song is exactly what I was hoping to hear them go back to.

But the instrumentation is the best they've done since Viva La Vida. Almost feel like I would like this better just as an instrumental.
Nah. Charlie Brown.

Re: Coldplay
You can definitely draw a comparison between the xx and mylo xyloto. U.F.O., Up in Flames, Up with the Birds, maybe even Us Against The World. Charlie Brown is not a valid comparison at all. Thematically, perhaps.

i do not like Charlie Brown as much as everyone else.
The instrumentation reminds me of The XX debut album with the addition of a piano. Indie-electronica pop with a R&B groove.
I thought you were comparing charlie brown and the xx. My bad.

Re: Coldplay
Absolutely impossible for me to choose. I like so many of their songs. I've gone through so many times in my life with Coldplay as my soundtrack. Love them.
