At 5th, we have:

 

 

This popular tune, the lead single from AROBTTH, was kept off the top of the charts by Daruis.

 

:puke2:

One of the highlights of X&Y this emotive track got to Number 4 and is currently Coldplay's longest running single in the UK.

No suprise at the last 3 but i have a bad feeling Talk will be #1.

In at 3rd:

 

The Scientist (208 points)

This popular track has a video of Chris surviving a backwards car crash, and if you think logically about the video, if you play it forwards, he is singing backwards! :mellow: :wacko:

 

 

It is an INJUSTICE that Fix You didn't go Top 3! :angry: Why did no one tell me about this? I would have put it top -_-

 

Clocks to win btw ^_^

We're studying music videos in Media Studies and we just studied this. It confused everyone! :lol: :wacko: He's miming backwards! :o

Right, its down to 2, so at 2nd place is:

 

Clocks (209 points)

This track is, for me, the highlight of AROBTTH, and is my second favourite coldplay track, after Trouble. Another piano led tune, this is a timeless classic.

 

 

So Talk is #1. What a JOKE <_<

 

Thanks for the countdown Jester

I said Clocks to win <_< Oh well, Talk's ok -_-

Which brings us to the WINNER!

:banana:

Well, as our winner, we have the Kraftwerk-sampling Talk. This is one of the best tunes from X&Y, and shows off John Barrowmans amazing guitar playing. I admit , im not as fond of this track as I used to be.

For those of you that voted (and the members that didnt!!), feel free to comment on the (in)justice of this!!

My favourite at 9? How disappointing.

I would not have put 'Shiver' last but as it's their smallest hit it makes sense it's not done that well on the rate.

Shocked at the winner. I think it's one their best but I thought one of the ballads would walk it.

To be honest, I thought that The Hardest Part should be last too :( The problem was that people put Shiver as 0 as it is less known. I think its a wonderful song, personally.

 

Anyway, on with the countdown!

AVERAGES

I added up total points, I am aware there are different ways of adding rates up, but I chose to not calculate averages.

Boooo, it is more representitive. NOTHING to do with Shiver being my favourite :(

Well, I will try that apporach next time, I admit, I wanted The Hardest Part to be last!
