there have been a few bands who were very important to me as I was aging from my teens to early twenties. Sadly, by the time I turned 23, I wasn't following them anymore due to reasons ranging from laziness to mediocre music to the death of the audio cassette. Coldplay is one such band. I think their first two albums were great, the third was ok...and then... I don't know.


However, somewhere between those albums they released The Blue Room EP which has one of my favorite Coldplay songs ever. It's called See You Soon. It has the simplicity that I saw in Parachutes, and could never find again. Check it out here, it's not in any album.
