Most underrated song on the album?

[Vivek]

I know this is saying a lot since there are so many other great songs on the album (Yes)

but I really do this is the most underrated song on the album. After we listened to it non-stop when they gave it out for free, i stopped listening to it for a long while, but after listening to it live in amsterdam, I have to say this is one of the best songs on the album.

C/D? (confirm deny? :D)

Violet Hill is a great song I think it gets its just desearves on here. Most seem to like it. IMO the most underated song on the album is Chinese Sleep Chant. While VH was different, I think CSC was too different for some.

[Aleluvscp]

nah the most underrated song on the album is Yes ..that song is brilliant!! and only a few people seem to like it :thinking:

I love it. One of my favourites on the album, but I love them all. :D

[ricardo]

yes and this one

[majgirl]

Violet hill is seriously becoming my favorite track on the album

[Fixed]

Great bass.

[Tonsu]

I think almost everyone loves VH, and quite rightly so - it's amazing. I wish they made more of it live, and also left it till later in the set. It was eclipsed far too soon by VLV as a single (probably why it doesn't get the praise it deserves), and shouldn't receive the same treatment at a gig imho.

I'd say Yes is almost universally loved too. The one I don't get is Chinese Sleep Chant. An incredible change of direction, and absolutely mind-blowing live. I'd say that and RoL are the two most underrated on the album for sure. Both great tracks.

[coldplayGeorgia!]

i don't underrate any of them i love them all but i think most underrated by other people is definitely Yes!
and Overrated one is Lost?! (both versions)

[RedGirl76]

I have to say I LOVE Lost!, and I've been surprised at the number of people on here who don't seem keen on it.

Is it on too early in the album - 'cos people don't seem to be raving about Life in Technicolour or Cemetries of London as much as some of the tracks that appear later... :thinking:

[Timothy Q. Mouse]

Great bass.


The drums make the song. By far the most interesting drum part Will has written.

[johnnycp17]

Cemeteries of London is most underrated.:P

[tennis08tarheels]

Life in Technicolor? Or maybe Reign of Love, I really like how that complements Lovers in Japan (or would that be compliments...anyone know the correct word usage there?).

[marie/pims]

Violet Hill is great.The first time I heard on the radio (I woke up in the middle of the night just to listen to it the day it was first played the radio) I was a little surprised.But now it's one of my favorite songs on the album.

[Death Hill]

I love it, Coldplay has never really done a song like it before.

[digitize]

Violet Hill is criminally underrated here in the States, especially compared to VLV, which went to number one...

I certainly hope not!

[butterfliesinjapan]

:thinking: maybe they shouldn't have given it for free so early? :\
I love Will's drums, I want one!! -whine- :D

[Pseudonym]

By far the most underrated is Cemeteries of London. Since they arent playing it live people have seemingly forgotten about it. Its so brilliant with it's 6/8 time signature and deep bassy effects. Plus the chorus is breath-taking. Never let this song go unnoticed.

[Christa42]

Lost acustic. it's brilliant:rolleyes:

[Pseudonym]

Lost acustic. it's brilliant:rolleyes:

technically it's not on the album:P


I heard they were planning on putting it on the album, but when they were doing editing they Lost the file so they had to put the other one on.:rolleyes:

[Christa42]

I stand corrected grass hopper:rolleyes:

[WilsonC]

I think Strawberry Swing is quite underrated, but that's why we have forums; to post opinions.

[livethelife16]

Yes, strawberry swing is underrated but definetly Lovers in Japan is the MOST underrated....I mean such incredible lyrics, and good piano. *sigh* I love it :)

[jrass820]

violet hill is the best song on the album in my opinion.

[Vincymon]

I think Violet Hill does have its rightly deserved opinion as a great song.

However I think they should make a video for YES ( all 7 minutes of it ). THAT song is underrated.
