Princess of China: Worst Coldplay song ever? - Page 17

^ you did not just say "RiRi" please tell me you didn't do that

Witfang_7 · 05-04-2012, 04:49 AM

^ I mean Chris and Rihanna's duet is good

nanda · 11-04-2012, 02:07 PM

PoC is not in my top Coldplay songs. Heck, it's not even in my top MX songs. But I hardly think it's the worst. In my opinion the worst Coldplay song is Up in Flames. It's boring and annoying.

Ugh, I (personally) think it's Coldplay's worst song. By far

The lyrics are just downright bad--to me, lyrics are the most important part of the song--and the synth intro reminds me of video game music

^^

you can really tell that chris dumbed down his lyrics for Rihanna. Part of what makes me love Coldplay is how everyone can take what they will from the lyrics; they're very open to interpretation. With POC, that all gets thrown out the window, it's a break-up song and nothing more

beginning worst from middle this is good song ending part great

simpsonowa · 03-06-2012, 01:17 PM

yes, it is the worst Coldplay song ever. and it's BECAUSE OF RIHANNA.
when she doesn't sing it's quite nice.

Agree.

CurtisJ · 04-06-2012, 11:19 AM

I think Princess of China is really cool, it's not like Coldplay is taking this direction permanently. Rihanna is their first feature, so it's a nice change of pace.

Cyan Kat · 04-06-2012, 11:46 AM

PoC is one of the best off MX, it is not very good IMO but it's not their worst, the lyrics might be crap but at least Chris isn't trying too hard to write some poetic masterpiece like 'cathedrals in my heart' or 'wa wa waterfall' it stands up ok as a pop song. I don't listen to it really but i don't mind if it comes on the radio it's just a meh song for me.

Rainystrawberry · 04-06-2012, 04:25 PM

I guess whether you think POC is Coldplay's worst song is a individual decision, as some people really like POC.
I don't see the point of these "worst song ever threads", since everyone will have a different opinion. If the thread was called " Whats your opinion on the song" I would get it. Or maybe its just me that feels this way ?

Coeurli · 04-06-2012, 07:06 PM

^No you're not, I actually agree. I don't really get the "worst song" threads, as music is really a matter of personal opinion. I feel the same for the "best song" threads too, btw.

EmmaLouiseSmyth · 04-06-2012, 07:12 PM

I honestly don't understand all the hate D; I don't mind the song. It's up there with Charlie Brown with my most listened to tracks on the album, haha.

I couldn't agree more, I'm amazed that people can spend so much time and energy "hating" one song. I dislike Yes and Prospekt's March but they appeal to other people for different reasons.

We're never going to all agree as we all have different tastes and our opinions are all unique, so rather than arguing and bitching at someone who happens to disagree with your point of view, why not just accept your fellow fans right to express their throughts respectfully without ripping them to shreds?

Oh yeh, and I personally love POC, Lost+, ETIAWF, The Hardest Part and Paradise

*waits to be ripped to shreds*
