If you think that version of "Lost!" is the best , think again.
Some hold that there is no better Coldplay track than Everything's Not Lost, though Shiver comes a close second.
"Amsterdam" can be used for a pick-me-up whenever shit gets real.
"Violet Hill" is brilliant.
"Sparks" is both truly depressing and beautiful.
"God Put a Smile on Your Face". If that doesn't get you head nodding, or your toes tapping, or something, your heart is a block of fucking concrete.
On the topic of "God Put A Smile Upon Your Face," the live remix mashes it up with "Talk," adds some dance elements, and pretty much pushes the whole thing Up to Eleven
"Fix You" is nothing compared against "The Scientist".
This Troper prefers "A Rush of Blood to the Head"; it's more of a quiet-awesome type of song.
In a way, it's the sound of self-justified madness.
"Strawberry Swing", anyone?
The frequently ignored (or maybe just no very publicized) "Twisted Logic" has one of their most absurd and yet most brilliant lyrics, backed up by instrumentals that make me shiver inside every time I hear it.
Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends is probably the most magical thing Coldplay created.
Agreed. Prospekt's March just adds to the awesome. LeftRightLeftRightLeft, the free live album from the Coldplay website, [1], also makes this troper very happy. In some of the songs, the audience's clapping becomes a part of the song.
"Christmas Lights," the band's 2010 Christmas single, is utterly beautiful, and the music video features, among other things, Elvis impersonators playing violins, a self-playing piano, fireworks, and fish puppets. Hell, this song is the musical equivalent of An Ass Kicking Christmas. Bravo, Coldplay.
'Cemeteries of London' is one of my favourite songs. Ever. There are a couple of other songs from Viva la Vida that I really love, especially 'Violet Hill', but I don't get why everyone ignores that one. And I think that most of X&Y sounds like slight variations on the same song, it is a damn good one.
