The phone directory that was lying on the table – they will never let you know. It could be about the colour of a coward. There are a million different truths about ‘Yellow’. With additional words from Andrew Trendell, El Hunt, Hannah Mylrea and Sam Moore Here then, ranked in order of greatness from worst to best, is Coldplay. Hidden tracks, however, are allowed and celebrated, as are charity and festive offerings. But we’ve banned all unreleased tracks, included no covers and counted nothing from ‘Los Unidades’ (which is probably for the best). Some criteria before we get going: instrumentals are allowed and included, as long as they are not purely transitional or recycling the loops of another full track. To celebrate 20 years since the release of their still-great debut album ‘Parachutes’ on July 10, 2000, behold: a full, colourful, impassioned ranking of every single Coldplay song to date.Ĭoldplay (Picture: Samir Hussein/Redferns/Getty) From embracing indie rock to trying out nu jazz - and dipping their toes into electropop and EDM as well - they’ve also always been hungry to have a go at anything and everything when they get to it in the studio. #5 Coldplay Song Remix: “Clocks” (Rogue Dubstep)Ĭlocks’ simplicity gets sucked into a dubstep beat turning the smooth track into a mind-bending rework of the piano-laden original.When you come to appraise the 20+ years of Coldplay material on offer – music written by the four people who forced the world to invent new synonyms for “heartbreak” – a study of every single Coldplay track actually teases out much more nuance and variety than the straightforward moans and groans of some of the saddest guys in the business might suggest.Ĭomprising of Will Champion on drums, Jonny Buckland on guitar, Guy Berryman on bass and Chris Martin on vocals – and, when he fancies it, guitar, piano and whatever else he can find - Coldplay have often been cocky, sometimes political but always furiously fascinating. The build up alone makes you “feel alive” but it’s the beat drop that throws you into a frenzy.
#4 Coldplay Song Remix: “Adeventures of a Lifetime” (Audien) The Norwegian DJ/producer turned his hands on the mysterious Coldplay song (and equally mysterious video) and flipped it into a magical piece with traces of his tropical aesthetic laced throughout the track. When Kygo touches a song, you know it’s sure to be a banger. #3 Coldplay Song Remix: “Midnight” (Kygo) #2 Coldplay Song Remix: “Paradise” (Fedde Le Grand Remix)Ĭoldplay’s 2011 single gets the Fedde Le Grande treatment as the Dutch house producer bolsters the song with a hazy uptempo beat.
#1 Coldplay Song Remix: “Every Teardrop is a Waterfall” (Swedish House Mafia)įrom disco vibes to a full blown dance craze track, boost your Monday mood with this mix from the Swedish House Mafia.
