If you mean what is being played on guitar, like they said it's an Ebow. I've never seen one before until I saw Jonny using it. It vibrates to make the string sound continuously rather that you having to pluck it with your fingers. So you can make the note last and last as long as you want. That is my take on it. But if someone else knows better, by all means, help me out.

The Mad Hatter · 22-02-2008, 08:15 PM

1. Proof
2. Yellow
3. Moses
4. What If
5. How You See the World no. 2

I hope I don't catch hell for this.

Thanks! That question has bugged me for a while.
But that still qualifies as guitar playing in the song then, right?

^ oh... do you mean top 5 MOST fav coldplay songs???

quite surprised to see don't panic, speed of sound and arobtth are in your list. all three are my top faves. white shadows and brothers sisters also are good enough.

SamH · 07-03-2008, 08:17 PM

Shame on anyone for mentioning ANY old b-sides

With 1 being my least favourite:

1. Proof
2. The Hardest Part
3. Low
4. How you see the world (either one)
5. What If

What If would've been alright if he wasn't singing falsetto throughout the entire chorus. As you can see, 2005 was a disappointing year for me

I actually agreed with the stuff on yours.

"What If" is just...ugh. They lyrics are simple and not that great. He rhymes 'wrong' with 'wrong' and that really annoys me.

A lot of the writing on X & Y annoys me, really.

Sorry...

I absolutely agree with you.

"The hardest part was letting go, not taking part. That was the hardest part."
Argh! He sang 'part' 3 times in that line...3 times!

dmare · 08-03-2008, 06:30 AM

1. marianne
2. murder
3. poor me
4. animals
5. Twisted Logic

Oops....

I read the opposite... those 5 were my MOST fave songs...

Thanks for making me notice that...

well, my 5 least fave now (among the ones I know):
5 Twisted logic
4 Sleeping sun
3 The world turned upside down
2 A whisper
1 Daylight

5. Spies - I've tried to like it, but I just can't.

4. Harmless - It's short, but unlike Parachutes, not in a good way.

3. A Whisper - Worst song off of AROBTTH. Why in the world was it was chosen over I Ran Away!?

2. White Shadows - I just don't like it.

1. In My Place - Waaayyyy too radio friendly.

Open, Politik · 08-03-2008, 06:17 PM

^ Spies is so brilliant. So inventive which is something you dont see in Coldplay sometimes.

rudy_o · 09-03-2008, 03:41 AM

^ Quite surprised to see 'in my place' is in your list
