Album of the Week: Coldplay – "X&Y" (2005)
2009/07/12Track 7: Speed of Sound:
Coldplay has become a staple in my listening rotation, and this album in particular. The album is solid, so solid I rarely skip any songs and it was difficult to pick out 5 favorites. It may be that many of the songs are similar in tone and many feature a slower start and rise to a climax. It is hardly the most creative album musically or lyrically, and Coldplay is hardly the most creative band I ever heard, but it is a sound I like, a lot. It is a sound I can listen to over and over without tiring. Ethereal and yet active, and always familiar and comforting.
Here are my 5 favorites from the album, with "Speed of Sound" being my favorite.

Coldplay – "Clocks" (2002)
2009/06/08
Clocks was stuck in my head today when I first awoke. (Although it could've been Coldplay's "Speed of Sound" too. They are both very similar sounding. I forgive them because I love them both!)
I'm old enough to not care what about whether I'm cool or not. I know it is probably not cool to like Coldplay because they are so popular and successful. I'm just not punk enough. But whatever. I was never one to let my peers decide what kind of music I should or should not listen to. If you like it, then listen to it!
