Default B-Sides Better Then The Actual Tracks on the Albums???

In my opinion the B-sides of Coldplay are mostly the best tracks that they make.

'i ran away' 'animals' 'crests and waves' 'Moving To Mars' 'Carefull where you stand' and so on.

Why do they put mostly crap on the actual albums.????

I love Animals and Moving To Mars and The Goldrush. Hopefully we get b-sides like Golden Arrow and Car Kids!!! My expectations for this album aren't very high!!!!

Mark my words,if there are more B-Sides from the LP5 and they release it,then it will be sounding better then what the actual album brought us till now.

X&Y had better b-sides than album tracks. This time it's almost certainly going to be the same, even if Moving to Mars is the only b-side. I'd rather listen to Moving To Mars for 50 minutes than an album with the likes of Paradise, ETIAW and Rihanna.

I'll agree. Most of my favorite Coldplay tunes are B-sides.

I agree entirely, but I do see why these songs aren't released on the albums, especially the earlier ones. A lot of the best, like I Ran Away, just don't sound like Coldplay. Nothing to do with the quality- they sound good enough to be album tracks from an equally big band, but they're just in a different style to the albums.

My favourite Coldplay song ever is "Crests of Waves"!! Recently bought things I don't understand and despite it's repetitiveness I love it!!!

P.S. The chords in things I don't understand. Anyone else think Princess of China uses the same ones?
