Have you ever feel to cry with joy everytime you listened to particular songs? Your spirit lifted by positive vibration, want to scream but at the same time feeling life is so fulfiling. Well, this is what I feel everytime I listen to X&Y Coldplay.
Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, Chris Martin, and Will Champion works are really solid in this album. First time I listened to “Yellow” from their debut album Parachutte, I think that they are just another one hit wonder. However, the second album, “A Rush of Blood To The Head”, were proving my cynisism has no ground. They are really trully a bunch brilliant artists. I was then develop my love to their music.
When X&Y arrived, I saw their uber cool video of “Speed Of Sound.” I listened carefully to the lyric and OMG… I got goose bump on my neck. From 13 high-quality songs in this album I would say there are at least 6 songs that capable to change the way I look into life : Square One, Fix You, Talk, Speed Of Sound, The Hardest Part, and Swallowed In The Sea.
This is brilliant album that I listened over and over again without never getting tired.
Some “rock” album are really cannot be listened in the middle of the night, but try this album, and set the volume very low...another magical feeling will transcend to your soul.
Throughout the album, the lyric also well-written, take this for example from The Hardest Part :
And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
This is an album that able to evoke my imagination, emotion, hope, and sadness. I can see the music!
