My Coldplay.com

For all Coldplay and Coldplaying.com fans, Ode to Deodorant, that long-elusive rarity, is now available for listening.

After many months of waiting and over 120 pages of discussion by fans on the Coldplaying.com messageboard, the elusive and — until now — rarely heard demo tape of Ode to Deodorant has at last been uploaded!

Accompanied by the earliest version of Brothers and Sisters, “Ode” has until now been unavailable to most fans for listening. The amusing lyrics are accompanied by what can only be described as early Coldplay, but clearly foreshadow the music fans have come to love.

The songs can be found at the multimedia forum on the messageboard under the “Ode to Deodorant, First Coldplay Recording, Anyone?” thread, here

Lyrics below [Thanks Ian]

ODE TO DEODORANT

f# d c# b d c# b g f#

Here’s an Ode, ah, to deodorant
It’s my thing, ah it’s my favourite hygiene
It keeps me through the day

Another ode, ah to deodorant
It’s my thing, ah it’s my favourite hygiene
It’s the confidence I need

It’s medicine for the soul
It’s medicine for the mind
It picks me up and makes me whole
It makes me feel alright

Here’s an Ode, an ode to aerosol
It’s my thing
Ah, it’s my favourite hygiene, it’s the confidence I need

It’s medicine for the soul
It’s medicine for the mind
It picks me up and makes me whole
It makes me feel alright

It’s okay Oh, would I ever let you down? No way
Oh, would I ever let you down, okay?
Oh, would I ever let you down, no way
Oh, would I ever let you down…

I’ll never let ya, I’ll never let ya, I’ll never let you down, no way

Would I ever let you let you down, no way
Would I ever let you let you down, no way
Would I ever let you let you down, no way
Would I ever let you let you down, no way

OMG! This is my new favourite song!
