Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars decent b-sides.......2003-08-26

"Don't Panic" is a great song, but that's not why you're considering buying this CD; if so, get "Parachutes," the whole album. You're here for the b-sides. Both are live recordings, but they sound very professional. "You Only Live Twice" is a good take on the Bond-movie title song; nicely adapted to fit the band's style, while remaining true to the spirit of the original. "Bigger Stronger" is even better, an aggressive rocker that must have been great in concert. Do these two songs add up to enough to make them worth the price of the single? If you're a big Coldplay fan, then definitely. If you're only a casual fan, you might want to try and hear the songs first, then make a decision.

4 out of 5 stars 4th (and last) single off "Parachutes" really shines.......2001-06-07

Following "Shiver, "Yellow" and "Trouble", "Don't Panic" is the 4th single off Coldplay's debut CD "Parachutes". This single has 3 tracks and runs 11 min.

"Don't Panic" is the lead-off track from the album, and is a 2'17" gem of a song. Starting of gently with Chris on accoustic guitar, the song then drives into the chorus, featuring Coldplay's unofficial motto "We Live in a Beautiful World". One phrase seldom has captured the essence of a band as well as this one. When the song reaches the end, you can't wait to hear it again.

Track 2 is a live version of "You Only Live Twice", yes, the title track to the James Bond movie! Coldplay used this song as the set closer on their February US tour. While staying true to the song, Coldplay nevertheless makes it its very own. A great example on how to treat a cover song.

Track 3 is a live version of "Bigger Stronger" (which is the lead-off track from their "Blue Room EP"). One can tell that the band has "matured" into the song, and this version is perhaps better than the early studio version. Very enjoyable.
