Customer Reviews Well... I havent listened to this, but I looked at the song list and. . why buy this? Actually, if you want a little bit of Coldplay for a small price, and you're just getting into COldplay, then get this. If you're already a Coldplay fan like me, you already have Parachutes and maybe Brothers and Sisters. (I have it; it's great!) So, if you're just getting to know this band, get this CD. For the rest of us, there's no reason to buy this except maybe for the extremely hardcore fan that would want the live version of In My Place for six dollars. . Even I have to say excellent I love to listen to it on lo-fi tape, extra bass, loud and relaxing at night time. I know I really should be hating Coldplay for invading rock with blandness etc etc as a rock fan but I really cannot critisise such a heartbreakingly beautiful melody as this. It can carry you off into another world. Trouble is destined to become a future classic. Third Single from "Parachutes" Just Short of Perfect The single contains 3 tracks and runs 14 min. "Trouble" is the third single from "Parachutes", following "Shiver" (March 2000) and "Yellow" (June 2000). "Trouble" is one of the best tracks of "Parachutes", with Chris Martin on piano and as often is the case, singing about love, love lost and regret ("I never meant to cause you trouble/I never meant to cause you pain"). "Brothers and Sisters" reworks their earlier version, issued independently. This version, while still showing that it is one of the early songs of the band, is more complete, and also sounds "fuller". "Shiver (Jo Whiley Lunchtime Social)" was taped at some British talk show if I'm not mistaken. This version is essentially an "unplugged" version from the song found on "Parachutes": no drums, no electric guitars. It makes for a very different sound, quite intimate. Very Coldplay! I give 4 stars, instead of 5, because in comparison to the "Shiver" single and "The Blue Room EP", this single is slightly less compelling. Not a must for those who only know Coldplay from the current radio exposure of "Yellow". But a must-have for any Coldplay completist. .
