High Speed is one of the best early Coldplay songs

shipoffools · 09-06-2009, 10:37 AM

Do you agree?

Corkus · 09-06-2009, 04:02 PM

Absolutely. I've seen several folks call it the weakest track on Parachutes, but I prefer it to probably half the tracks. It's a rather toned-down listen, but the gentle tune really sucks you in at the beginning.

Twisted mind · 09-06-2009, 04:04 PM

Yes I agree. It's wonderful.

William · 09-06-2009, 05:15 PM

I agree

I'ts so calming.

shipoffools · 09-06-2009, 05:24 PM

It might possibly be my favorite track on Parachutes.

noonsun · 09-06-2009, 06:49 PM

I agree also. I think it's the only song on Parachutes with that REALLLLY early Coldplay "sound".... does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Crests · 09-06-2009, 06:50 PM

i agree

and yes sara, i know what you mean

i miss it.

If you mean pre-Parachutes sound, I agree, which is not surprising since it was indeed first released before Parachutes.

MasoKnight · 10-06-2009, 03:11 AM

Yes, definitely. I think it suffers b/c of its placement behind all of the singles. It sounds a bit flat after hearing Spies, Yellow, and Trouble.

ImLovingGuyBerryman · 10-06-2009, 04:40 AM

wonderful song

Twizted Logik · 10-06-2009, 07:45 PM

100% yes, it's terrific

Prospekt. · 10-06-2009, 09:14 PM

Much better than "We Never Change"

shipoffools · 10-06-2009, 09:31 PM

I agree, We Never Change is a bit overrrated.

I absolutely agree. People here are so high on that song. It's a bit flat for me.

yeah that's what I meant. And yes, that's also correct.

Also, I rather like We Never Change, but it's not SUPER AMAZING or anything
