Could not have agreed more. The more songs in the set, the better! Doesn't hurt a bit. Both should be played as well. Not one night Lost!, one night Lovers In Japan.

I also noticed that they took out Politik in lieu of Don't Let It Break Your Heart, cause Politik was played at the 2011 shows in Europe. Why not play both!

Speaking of Coldplay randomness..

I never realized how phenomenal of a song Fix You is.

cobl04 · 04-19-2012, 05:40 PM

Ehh... as much as I dug Mylo Xyloto I think I'll be skipping them on this tour unless tickets are relatively cheap. No Parachutes besides Yellow, and just THE HITS! outside of the new album, cool as it is they're playing Warning Sign.

I can send you about a million links if you need evidence! It's my favourite song by them. The Glastonbury performance is amazing!

If they drop The Scientist, I won't be happy. However, there is NO chance of that happening...

I wasn't all that familiar with Warning Sign, however, it is quite beautiful. I loved when they screwed it up in Calgary, admitted it, joked around, and then resumed!

I'd pay the price of admission for the rush at the beginning of the show with the wristbands. I don't want to spoil it, but the videos give me goosebumps. I can't wait to see it for myself!

Judging past videos, when the wristbands turn on as Mylo Xyloto / Hurts Like Heaven starts, it gives me chills. Really cool thing to give audience members as they walk in the venue, have them be "part of the show". I really need to see them live on this tour!

ryancoke71 · 04-19-2012, 05:57 PM

I like how they are used through out the show.

trojanchick99 · 04-19-2012, 06:39 PM

The wristbands are pretty nifty. It will neat to see them in a larger venue than the first time I saw them used.

The entire X&Y album is phenomenal, my personal favorite is A Message from it.

LuckyNumber7 · 04-19-2012, 11:32 PM

I can relate way too much to Fix You. Dunno how I never saw it. Never really listened. There are those three or four songs that I keep near and dear to me, and I think it's time to make room for another.

Vlad n U 2 · 04-19-2012, 11:36 PM

I like Square One so much better. So much better.

What are the others?

I love Fix You. Fuck the haters.

I agree Square One is the best on that album though, one of the few salvageables.

All for their own very specific reasons.

*Narrows eyes* This sentence. I do not understand it.

Seriously, fine, yeah, they don't have to play it in Seattle, then. But I definitely want to hear it in St. Paul.

Ah, okay. Well, that's not a hugely drastic difference in amount of songs (18, on the other hand...yeah, wow, short indeed-the Muse show I saw in 2007, they played 17 songs), but still, agreed, throwing a few more songs in would be great. I wouldn't mind hearing "Lost!" at all, that song kicks live, and if they could play "Yes" (I'd KILL to hear this one), "Trouble", and/or "Amsterdam", that would make me a happy, happy girl, too.

Hell, yes

. Second favorite Coldplay song, right behind "The Scientist".

I do have to disagree with you a bit on X&Y, though, there's some good stuff in there. "Square One" is indeed fantastic (that song was running through my head at work tonight, actually. The fact that our computer system is entitled Square One probably factors a lot into that

), yes, but I also quite like "What If", "X&Y", "The Hardest Part", and "Talk"-those are my particular favorites. Like I said, the biggest issue with that album, I think, is mainly just a bit of editing here and there.

cobl04 · 04-20-2012, 12:40 AM

Is anyone else reminded of Clocks when they receive an email notification through Microsoft Outlook?

Didn't know you were an LCD fan, nice.

Vlad n U 2 · 04-20-2012, 01:36 AM

Oh yeah and Low and White Shadows are pretty great too. I still quite like Talk and Speed of Sound. That's all, I think.

LemonMelon · 04-20-2012, 01:47 AM

Vlad n U 2 · 04-20-2012, 01:49 AM

Beats anything on Mylo Xyloto.

inb4 MX fans

(my opinion)

LemonMelon · 04-20-2012, 01:53 AM

Square One and What If are the X&Y songs I like quite a bit. I can listen to White Shadows, Talk and Speed of Sound also.

MX has two or three songs I like.

ryancoke71 · 04-20-2012, 06:56 AM

Speed of Sound is one that they have said they don't like playing live. I'd love to hear that and Trouble .
