My favourite band in concert. "YELLOW" Asolutely the best song of the decade. Never tired of listening to it.

Far from being my favourite band, but this song is inspiration itself

Most songs you eventually get tired of hearing, some you can listen to again and again, Yellow introduced me to Coldplay, and whilst it isn't my fav Coldplay song, I never tire of hearing it

Coldplay owes everything to four and a half minutes of music. This track ought to be in the top five.
