Fun fact: I thought this would be Nick's 35. Glad to be proven wrong by ten spots.
I'm really not upset about this. I thought that "Trouble" had a chance of making the top 10, but I was under no illusions that it was a #1 contender. Wish it would have made the top ten, but hey, what are you gonna do?
No joke, this is one of my all-time favorite songs. They could make 100 terrible songs, and I'd be willing to forgive them because of "Trouble".

2 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 20 | 27 You can probably guess which song that I was hoping would make the top ten. I'm pleasantly surprised that "Violet Hill" made it. I thought it would go out around in the mid-teens, around where "Shiver" was revealed. {Top 10?} 10) Violet Hill 9) In My Place 8) Yellow 7) Talk 6) Paradise 5) Speed of Sound 4) Fix You 3) The Scientist 2) Viva la Vida 1) Clocks
I was actually the most torn on the top two. I feel like it could go either way between those two.

1. What song(s) are you surprised made it into the top 10? "Talk", "In My Place", and, to a lesser extent, "Violet Hill"
2. What song(s) were you disappointed to see not in the top 10? I was hoping something from Ghost Stories made it in, namely "Magic". "Midnight" is all sorts of amazing, but I knew it'd be out earlier.
3. How do you think the top 10 will play out? (predict it) 1. "Yellow" 2. "Clocks" (1 and 2 are interchangeable, but I'm willing to bet these are the top 2 songs) 3. "Fix You" 4. "The Scientist" 5. "Viva La Vida" 6. "Paradise" 7. "In My Place" 8. "Speed of Sound" 9. "Talk" 10. "Violet Hill"

I think Viva La Vida & Clocks are battling it out for the top, but perhaps Yellow? I wouldn't be upset if Speed Of Sound was a surprise winner

Trouble was a really nice discovery and I was hoping for it to make Top 10 :/
Remaining ranks: #1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10 12, 13 21
Great top 10! would love to see any of my top 10's winning.
1. What song(s) are you surprised made it into the top 10? Violet Hill, Paradise, In My Place. 2. What song(s) were you disappointed to see not in the top 10? Trouble, Hymn For The Weekend.
No idea how the top 10 will turn out to be.

Damn, so close to the top 10... Glad I had a friend ranking it at #1 to also be disappointed at the reveal
Beautiful song, one of the first I really remember loving as a kid that still resonates today.

Pop or not, "Hymn" is just terrible. We could argue over whether Coldplay's lyrics were ever that profound, but they certainly hadn't previously sunk to the level of repeating "I'm feeling drunk and high, so high" over and over again. (Though "para-para-paradise" was a terrible chorus too.) They have had better "pop" songs than that... case in point, "Every Teardrop", which landed around where it belongs.
"Magic" is boring and I'm glad it's finally out.
I'm satisfied with where "Charlie Brown" landed here. I would say it got justice.
1. What song(s) are you surprised made it into the top 10?
"Paradise", though maybe that's more disappointment than surprise.
2. What song(s) were you disappointed to see not in the top 10?
"Shiver", "Don't Panic"
3. How do you think the top 10 will play out? (predict it)
10. In My Place 9. Violet Hill 8. Paradise 7. Talk 6. Fix You 5. Speed of Sound 4. The Scientist 3. Yellow 2. Viva la Vida 1. Clocks
Aside from "Paradise", I could have also done without "Speed of Sound" up there, but I'm not surprised by it. Otherwise, I'm satisfied with the top 10.

24/35 of us still have our #1s in, that number will become 23/35 after the next reveal. Im surprised to see how far this song has gotten, but its journey is about to end.

Consider this revenge for ranking "Trouble" bottom ten. Nah, seriously, I like this song, but I've always thought that it's overrated.

Nick64 will be the last person to lose his #35 with the next reveal. Any guesses on what it'll be? I will give you a hint. The song is from Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, which means it can only be 2 songs....
