Coldplay: The Rankdown(yes I stole this from a Spotify ad, don't @ me) I am seeing Coldplay in Vancouver in September, so I figured now would be a good time to open up a rankdown to re-discover their many hits from 2000-2017.
Want to play? Heres what you have to do: 1. Listen to all of the songs if you haven't already. I will provide a Spotify playlist, or you can listen to the songs on your own. 2. PM me a ranking of all of the songs, with #1 being your favourite one and #35 being your least favourite. 3. You have until August 1st 5th at 11:59PM PST to send in a list, this will give everybody over a month to listen/rank everything, so I will not be giving any extensions! 4. You can use the preference revealer: github.com/Xomnom/Preference-Revealer to save time, if you wish.
The List: Shiver Don't Panic Trouble Yellow In My Place The Scientist Clocks God Put A Smile On Your Face Speed Of Sound Fix You Talk The Hardest Part Violet Hill Viva La Vida Lovers In Japan Lost! Life in Technicolor II Strawberry Swing Christmas Lights Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall Paradise Charlie Brown Princess Of China (ft. Rihanna) Atlas Magic Midnight A Sky Full Of Stars Ink Adventure Of A Lifetime Hymn For The Weekend (ft. Beyoncé) Up & Up Everglow Something Just Like This (The Chainsmokers ft. Coldplay) Hypnotized All I Can Think About Is You Total Songs: 35
Spotify Playlist:

I only took songs that made it at least #50 on charts around the world, or if it got sent to any radio format in the USA, so if anybody notices that I forgot any songs, or if anybody wants a song put on there (that charted somewhere around 75-51 around the world) just comment down below :)

matteeeb That tag list is outdated honestly, I been creating a Spreadsheet of every user who participated in rankdowns recently and will introduce new tag list of who I think it could interest regarding the current rankdown. Will do 2000s decades rankdown soon. For example. No point tagging George, mikeramp, and Xaprios anymore. They have been MIA. Leon boardicided. and guys like Kentucky and countrymusicjunkie only follow country and this Rankdown wont interest them.

I just stole a tag list from the Canadian Rankdown (which was already stolen ) + everyone who participated in the 2013 Alternative rankdown, so I figured I was hitting most people. So sorry if you're a country/alternative poster and you are not intrested in participating!

I feel like "Viva La Vida" is a pretty obvious winner.
I don't have a strong opinion on some earlier songs but I think the bigger problem for me is SJLT which is one of those songs that I feel very conflicted about and it would fit either in my bottom 5 or top 5. Idk, maybe I will participate. If not, just tag me in the results.

Yes please! Not sure how I feel about "Lost" being on there twice though. The Jay Z verse isn't really that much of a difference, I would still end up ranking them right next to each other and I think most people would do the same Coldplay: The RankdownI am seeing Coldplay in Vancouver in September, so I figured now would be a good time to open up a rankdown to re-discover their many hits from 2000-2017. You're gonna LOVE it!!

Been a fan of them since Parachutes The Scientist, Trouble are part of the soundtrack of my life. I made a shorter edit to the remix of Clocks so that it can fit in a mixed CD I was burning for a road trip among the first acts I saw live in the US (have seen them twice and plan to see them again this year in DC) So definitely IN In terms of songs, three suggestions: - add Don't Panic, certainly a hit of their Parachutes era, with video on rotation in video channels and a different sound to their first singles - add Strawberry Swing: if I recall correctly this was released to one US radio format - delete Lost! (feat Jay Z): it's just too similar to the original, and in cases like this (or remixes to originals) it'd be better to rank any version we like the most. Great idea to have this rankdown!!

Yeah, for "Lost", I'd make it one version and you could choose yourself which one to rank. That's how it normally is.

I've never liked Coldplay, so I'm not willing to put in the energy and effort to listen to these, but "The Scientist" would be my #1 and everything past "Christmas Lights" can tie itself for last place for all I care

Good ideas except I think we should keep the Jay Z remix

12% in to the preference revealer and I get "In My Place" vs "Fix You". This is gonna be harder than I thought.
