Top 10 Most Generic Coldplay Songs

The Top Ten
1 Clocks

I've Heard this song so many times that I find it more generic every time I hear it.

Where's the "All of Them" option?

2 Adventure of a Lifetime

This song is so generic and poppy.

3 Yellow

An incredibly boring generic Pop Rock song.

4 Sky Full of Stars

The Techno beats in this song sound incredibly generic. The lyrics are also poppy, and extremely cheesy.

I agree with this one.

5 Viva la Vida

For one this song is a rip-off of If I Could Fly by Joe Satriani. Second, it is incredibly generic sounding, in both the instrumentation and Singing. And Third, the song is very repetitive.

How in the heck could you hate this?

6 Something Just Like This

I know that the Chainsmokers are in this song as well, but the song is mostly Coldplay, so I count it as more of Coldplay song. This song sounds just as generic as every other Indie Pop Rock song made now. The DJ beats from The Chainsmokers also sounds extremely generic. The song is also painfully poppy.

It's better than Sky full of stars in my opinion.

Generic only because it uses the same chord progression as every other chainsmokers song, seriously they’re all the same.

7 Paradise

Extremely generic, and overly poppy pop rock song.

8 The Scientist

You can't hate this, you just can't

9 Charlie Brown

A very generic Pop song, this song is indeed.

10 Princess of China

Another song they made with a pop star, this time with Rihanna, this time they also managed to very generic and overly poppy.

The Contenders
11 Hymn for the Weekend

This is what made Coldplay going downhill.

12 Miracles (Someone Special)

Incredibly generic.
