it’s a rush of blood to the head and
music to the ears
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
Coldplay song
for this list we’ve chosen our entries
based on a combination of the artists
fan favorites and their most
commercially successful songs could it
change I was awesome
oh yeah number 10 trouble
o us spider webs turn up with me the
third single from their debut album
trouble is a prime example of Coldplay
soft sounding hard-hitting beginnings
the opening piano is instantly
recognizable and Chris Martin’s ghostly
tone still haunts as happily as it did
on cult plays earlier EPS Oh
a song about getting into a bad
situation and being unable to find a way
out it’s a tune that resonates with the
majority and delights even more
number nine speed of sound before it
starts before I begin built around an
equally iconic piano rip speed of sound
was the first song from the X&Y album
and the band’s first top ten hit in the
US it signified a dynamic change in
sound and image for the four-piece
building on their original minimalistic
approach and introducing a multi-faceted
futuristic vibe
Martin’s unique voice is still the focal
point but the whole band exudes the
confidence that their growing reputation
has given them
you
number eight in my place
the lead single from the massively
successful a rush of blood to the head
this track is Grammy winning British
rock gold I was loved
lines of crab piano lists this time the
tune is built around Johnny Buckland’s
chiming six string and it really gives
the guitarist a chance to shine
in my place is essentially a love song
as it tracks the rise and fall of a
mismatched and unrequited love
Martin and Co are saying that we all
have our place and it’s up to us to work
out what to do there in my place in my
place will eyes that I can’t change I
was lost
number seven Charlie Brown Starkey
boys me there’s a certain kid like
quality to this pick Martin wrote it
inside his daughter’s dollhouse the
lyrics refer to Peter Pan’s Lost Boys
and the title is clearly comic-book
inspired
though the peanuts character doesn’t
actually appear in the song it does
chart the story of Milo and Xyloto the
subjects of the band’s 2011 concept
album
a childish theme and an expert delivery
combined to produce an ear catching
atmospheric tunes
number six paradise
an outline of the band’s new direction
for their fifth album where she was just
she is spec Paradise is a statement
single that’s as infectious as it is
innovative retaining a melodic frame and
of course Martin’s vocals the song has
been injected with a bounce and charisma
that sets it apart from anything that
has come before
it’s about as catchy as a Coldplay
course is ever likely to get
it’s accompanied by an equally upbeat
elephant inspired video and it’s our
number six
number five the scientist come up with
such an iconic video accompaniment it
takes a first-class song to stand alone
as an individual creation and the
scientist is exactly that I was just
guessing
buzzer fear
pull
zoo was a paw
it is also one of the early success
stories that form the foundation of
Coldplay
Martin himself says the song is just
about girls I’m going back to the stop
and how everything else seems to fall to
the wayside when you’re interested in
someone
perhaps he’s right perhaps he isn’t but
give the man a piano and he can sure
work some magic
trying best but you don’t succeed number
4 fix you when you get what you want but
not watching perhaps the least
well-received of all their albums X&Y
did have an incredible trump card
this song fix you could be one of the
finest tunes to come out of Britain in
this century
the boys rallied together for a piece of
music that has everyone trying to sing
at a key that most of us cannot reach
the organ like sound of the beginning
transforms into an all-conquering
crescendo
and the tears may well stream for this
songs emotional climax
and I
try
number three yellow-star a car they
shine
the breakthrough record for Coldplay
this alt rocker is recognizable the
world over they were near enough anyone
who listens to modern music has heard it
and almost everyone understands the
point its making
it’s unconditional
sometimes unrequited love it’s having
someone in your life for whom you would
do anything
and the video is as honest as the lyrics
no you so
pole play truly sets a gold standard
with yellow
Kyle there’s chard simple genius it’s
happy sadness and it’s a Brit rock
masterpiece all the things that
number two clocks
for our runner-up we head back to the
piano and yet another supreme riff the
song was originally written too late for
inclusion on a rush of blood to the head
and was shelved for a later album
but eventually it got pushed through and
it became their sophomore efforts stand
out truck
a song that deals with the passing of
time whether we like it or not
clocks has a to-the-point title an
appropriately cyclical rhythm and a
Grammy Award for record of the year
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
– you shit
Oh
number one viva la vida
season rise when I gave the word down
with bold its ambitious it’s the start
of a new era sweep the streets I used to
three hugely successful albums with viva
la vida Coldplay proved if it’s not
broken
make it even better
I see
the boys branch out into our Kestrel
Rock add some classical lyrics and land
an international mega hit
was never
selling fans to love their lives it
charts the story of a one time king
whose empire has crumbled
Nerys you’re
money can’t buy you happiness but music
can and this record is extremely
valuable
