Top Ten Coldplay Songs That Were Never Released as a Single

Amsterdam is truly unique. No other Coldplay song features such a great piano solo by Martin. The lyrics are lovely, and it perfectly captures a melancholic mood.
Most underrated Coldplay song, in my opinion. Under my top 5.

Amsterdam is such an underrated song, and it's a beauty. This song makes me cry when I listen to it, and it has a great build in emotion, and even though it isn't bombastic, it tells a great story, just like 'The Scientist' did. - ChristianDavid

My favorite Coldplay song, and my eighth favorite song of all time. The vocals are perfect and detailed. Great piano work. The song simmers for a while and then gets louder.

Amsterdam is an awesome song. It builds slowly and then explodes suddenly. The piano is awesome, the lyrics are great. And yet, it isn't a single.

Swallowed in the Sea embodies everything that makes Coldplay Coldplay. It has a very moving melody with a heartfelt lyrical meaning. It has the atmospheric sound that Coldplay has come to patent over the years and is really an anytime song. Happy or sad, this is your tune.

Probably the best Coldplay song of all time and I mean it I know most people can't be bothered to listen to it but seriously this one is worth it

An undisputed favorite of listeners familiar with all albums. Listen to the words and the beauty of the song will reach out to you. It is very poetic and communicates strongly.

Best ever! Nothing more to be said!

An absolutely beautiful song. One of my favorites from Coldplay and a highlight of the album "a rush of blood to the head". Love it.

Really great song! I love the dramatic feeling of this song and I think more people should hear it.

I'm so glad I came to this page, this song is amazing!

Agree that it is one of coldplay's best. Makes AROBTTH their best album along with politik and amsterdam

This song is amazing! That is all I can say. The pure emotion of the song make my feet tingle. How can someone not like this song? Please listen to it! - alexismusa

Chris said it was one of the best works of Coldplay.

The song that got me into
Coldplay

I have no idea why this wasn't realeased as a single.

One of the most haunting, memorable choruses I've ever heard; can't seem to get it out of my head. Just when I thought the band couldn't get any better, I stumbled upon this absolute gem. Instantly became my favourite Coldplay song.

Awesome song. Really cool guitar riff. As much as I love this song, What If is better in my opinion. I think it amy have been released as a single in France though.

Fantastic chord progession, beautiful chorus, unfortunately, this should not be on the list, as it WAS released as a single, but that was only in Mexico, so it's OK

Between this and Strawberry Swing for me, but ended up siding with White Shadows. Amazing song nonetheless.

Up with the birds IS a single.

This is so underrated!

Absolutely amazing. It's sort of a companion track to the song X&Y, it has some of the best passion and emotion, a true classic to me. "You'll go backwards again... you'll go forwards again" is a wonderful chorus, the whole song has powerful lyrics. And listen to Jonny Buckland on this! I think it has his some of his best guitar work. I read somewhere that people were telling Coldplay to not put this on the album... I'm glad the band didn't give in, or we may have never heard this!

This is definitely the most underrated Coldplay song ever. It's one of my favorite songs by them.

This was proven by psychiatrists the most relaxing song with lyrics of all time. It actually slows your heartbeat and makes your brain process situations better. Oh yeah and it's a great, unique song :).

Was a single but a great song nonetheless. Go listen to it, especially if today is not your day.

One of my favourite songs of all time, a true fans vote and just a great relaxing song!

This song was a single.

Best and most creative Coldplay song, the fusion of Eastern melody gives it a very haunting and unforgettable feel

No, no non on, this song sucks

I love this song it should be #1

It's a great song, really deep

Everyone sais this songs bad, but I love it

beautiful

From their EP Brothers and Sisters.

Viva La Vida's version of Amsterdam and while it doesn't quite reach the height of the classic, it builds up similarly and is very enjoyable. Highly recommend it especially if you are more of a fan of the newer stuff

A very quiet and emotional beginning, followed by a crashingly loud ending section makes this an amazing song. Don't just read this, listen to the song!

A great ending song to an amazing album :P

Yes! My favorite on Ghost Stories. It's so grand but simple. Great vocals and lyrics. - pandagirl

Charlie Brown is a single

The most beautiful Coldplay song there is. Underrated but incredible!

Amazing song. It's so beautiful and emotional. I can't believe this song is so low on this list. It just shows how all the best songs are the underrated ones.

First song to ever make me cry

Love this one!

Because we live in a beautiful world, yeah we do yeah we do

Don't Panic is a single

It's a single. - sdp

Square 1 is one of my favorite Coldplay non-singles. It has a strong energetic chorus and soft lyrical verses. Chris Martin's vocals and range, Will Champion's drive, Johnny Buckland's playing, and Guy Berryman's support are all fantastic.

from their single Yellow... it pwns

Ink is a single

True Love is a single

Paradise is a single

Probably my favorite from X&Y!
