September 19, 20231 yr I don't really think Coldplay do bad songs just ones less good than their best. The last album I properly listened to was Mylo Xytolo (or whatever it was called) so anything after, unless it was a hit, would struggle in my rate. That said 'Ink' sounded very nice on first listen.
September 20, 20231 yr Oof 'Ghost Stories' already losing 2 of its songs! 'Ink' is admittedly one of their more forgettable songs (not sure why that was chosen as a single) but 'True Love' has been done dirty here, I nearly gave that a 9 even! (but I was trying to be at least marginally more discerning with my scores than just giving 9s and 10s to like 80% of the list lol)
September 20, 20231 yr Author 35. A Head Full of Dreams = Avg Score – 5.29 (Highest Score (9) Jester, RyanFM // Lowest Score (1) Michael, JulianT) vGZMvV9KBp8?si=6KFQwtXwV8ezZEOw 36. Atlas = Avg Score – 4.91 (Highest Score (10) Iz // Lowest Score (1) Cow P, Michael) Nsm88tX8CIA?si=NnpMwC7Kj9SBUMg- The title track from the bands 2015/16 album 'A Head Full Of Dreams' pops up in this first duo reveal with it receiving two 9 scores whereas Michael and Julian were not fans giving it lowest of 1 each. We also lose 'Atlas' which was the soundtrack to the Hunger Games : Catching Fire film from 2013 and peaked at #12 in the UK Chart . Again a few higher scores in there but both did get more lower scores overall. Still both do better over the 3 that had already been announced!
September 20, 20231 yr Oh poor Atlas bowing out already. I have a soft spot for that, used to love most things on the Catching Fire soundtrack.
September 20, 20231 yr 'Atlas' being below a 5 average :'( the Hunger Games films produced some great soundtrack songs and this is definitely up with the best of them.
September 20, 20231 yr Author 33. Up&Up = Avg Score – 5.64 (Highest Score (11) Cow P // Lowest Score (1) Michael) BPNTC7uZYrI?si=z-PdsILSHDpWCqO8 34. Everglow = Avg Score – 5.44 (Highest Score (10) Cow P // Lowest Score (1) Popchartfreak, Nina West, Michael, JulianT) xn_1hFdE-5g?si=SOsBRNGNFgtvjc1V 'Everglow' and 'Up&Up' head out next. The former has Chris Martin's ex Gwyneth Paltrow on uncredited vocals despite divorcing in 2014 with the video finishing on a sample of Muhammad Ali's speech from 1977 in Newcastle. 'Up&Up' was the one to collect at least one 11. 'Everglow' got four 1 scores here though oop!
September 20, 20231 yr Up&Up's the first one I really like that's out, incredible video and a really lovely song, deserved better x
September 20, 20231 yr Thought 'Up & Up' was slightly cheesy. 'Everglow' pleasant but nothing ground-breaking. Definitely thinking that these are coming out in the right kind of order. There's no massive hit that everyone hates appearing.
September 20, 20231 yr Author I wouldn't speak too soon ;) although on further look wouldn't say it's as hated as I'm thinking but there is one massive hit that's on the way, all the same!
September 21, 20231 yr 'Atlas' and 'Everglow' are two of their best ones, especially given the quality decline in recent years, shame they're out so early. Really good feelings on both.
September 21, 20231 yr Can't say I'm surprised about either but 'Atlas' and 'Up&Up' are far too low :nocheer:
September 21, 20231 yr Author for Wardy lol. -- Will post the two unfortunate songs to miss the top 30 in a few hours!
