This song is one of the gems from the old era of Coldplay

[@taska_the_first]

Its deep

[@mauricioa.riverah.5902]

Absolutely

[@gggary1424]

Can’t agree more

[@Ugk871]

But Coldplay evolved and making their music theirs instead of being a shadow of other musicians. That's inspiring (at least for me)

[@End-Result]

No, you mean the *original* era. This was what most people loved Coldplay for back in the day. What they eventually became was yet another money-making media monstrosity.

[@livelife365]

they need to play this one more often...

[@evangarry3525]

Unfortunately they wont they will probably stick to playing the sell out pop songs and not the gems on their first 3 albums

So glad they ended up playing this instead of viva la vida. Viva won the vote but all the comments were asking for Sparks which were from hardcore fans since they knew Sparks was hardly played live.

[@redko9122]

Actually they played both

[@ryanqkfcman]

@@redko9122 they played all the songs on the poll lol. AOAL and Magic were also played and filmed but they never released them...

[@leob4403]

@@ryanqkfcman why would they vote for a song that they literally have played at every concert since they released it (viva la vida)?

[@ryanqkfcman]

@@leob4403 because most fans are casual fans I guess? Idk that’s what I think. Not everyone knows what sparks is and would rather they play something everyone knows (well now a lot more people know thanks to tiktok). It’s mainly the hardcore fans that want them to play songs like Politik or Swallowed In The Sea again while most just want to hear them play a fancy guitar riff and have dancing monkeys.

[@leob4403]

@@ryanqkfcman while I appreciate Coldplay has many fans, some of them are really dumb lets be honest, they want to hear the same hit song over and over. I would vote for life is for living, daylight, life in technicolor II or twisted logic probably

[@defalcoproducoes]

Parachutes best album

[@im_Spade_]

By far

[@shilo.R.A]

I prefer Viva La Vida, but Parachutes is great indeed.

[@clarkclements7204]

You mean their worst album?

[@shilo.R.A]

@@clarkclements7204 Which one? Personally,I haven't fully listened to anything after Viva La Vida, but this is my ranking for Coldplay on the 2000's: 4.X&Y 2/3. Parachutes+A Rush Of Blood To The Head (Can't decide yet, I've listened to arobtth more) 1. Viva La Vida But all of them are really great, and each and every one of them is better than any album after Viva La Vida.

[@bradleyberdan1390]

Nah man mylo xyloto all the way

[@elijahsiegler5516]

The bass is this song is so relaxing and sweet 😌

[@javierasalgadoreyes]

The magic of Guy Rupert Berryman ❤️

[@barlailayley]

Learned it by heart, it's just so pretty

[@anasburns]

So beautiful. So soft. I missed hearing them in a more acoustic tone. I love how all their instruments standout, specially Guy's bass but honestly for me, Chris' voice... it fills my heart... I can't quite explain it but no other voice makes me feel such range of emotions as his. Such a unique timbre.

[@zachbeckman2806]

AR M. I could not agree more with all that you said. I definitely think that Parachutes and Rush of Blood to the Head showed their talent as musicians more than any other albums, even though I think that Viva la Vida is their best over all, and Mylo has their best lyrics.

[@357QueenBee]

I have teased that he sounds as if he has a cold and that's what I love about his voice.

[@camilofolan2291]

Well, you have Ghost Stories

[@arizmarlaborin9466]

[@Dankitude]

Zach Beckman pretty accurate tbh

Crying here. Remembering when heard Coldplay for the first time in 1999.

[@noursarhan8695]

You made me feel emotional and I wasn't even alive then. That's amazing

[@tortolexie3891]

:(

[@elisabeth4610]

Oh man, you have no idea how ecstatic I am to see this song resurface. I always feel like this song is so underappreciated since it's such a hidden gem. I remember the first time I heard this song and how I was instantly put under a spell by its beauty. There's just something about the acoustic, simplistic feel and the way you can hear Guy's fingers slide across the bass that just always draws me in. It means the world to me that others share a love for this song :) That's my little rant haha I hope whoever's reading this has a wonderful day. Thank you Coldplay.❤️

[@brianmendez4068]

One of the best Coldplay songs. I have a hunch they don’t play this song much because they don’t get the reaction that all the newer songs get. When bands get as big as Coldplay and they shift toward making energetic songs that make the crowds go wild, songs like Sparks suffer… Or maybe I’m wrong, people could be in tears in the crowd, who knows?

[@soundslikenicky]

I was packing my things on the second floor as It was my last day in our relationship. And he was singing this song on the first floor. I know he's been hiding his tears the past days since I told him that I'm leaving. But this song allowed him to cry, and I heart his emotional voice cracking and it made me burst out to tears on second floor. Even while I love him so much, I have to leave because he did drove me away. He just can't make up his mind and I ran out of patience and empathy for him. It was time for me to bring back the love to myself because he keeps wasting everything that I gave. If you happen to see this comment, I only wish the universe for our paths to never cross again because I don't want to get hurt anymore...
