"Viva La Vida" sounds more like the typical Coldplay hit, but quite a few people seem to prefer "Violet Hill". Which one do you like more?

Viva easily, but VH continues and continues to grow. Still, I think Viva is better and more likely to be extremely big for them.

...quite a few people seem to prefer "Violet Hill" Even though I'm the first one to vote for it in five weeks. . I like "Viva la Vida", but I don't "get" it. It just seems like in time it'll just be lost in the shuffle of all those other Coldplay hits. "Violet Hill" was an immediate standout, and even though it did burn out on me a little, I will remember it always for my highly positive initial reaction toward it.

I'm not sure I'd even heard the title track when this poll was posted, so I didn't want to weigh in until I'd heard it enough to be fair.
I don't know if there's any trace of subconscious backlash to "Viva" at play here from everyone who instantly sprayed their shorts over it (or if there initially was, why it would even still be lingering at this point), but nonetheless, I still prefer "Violet Hill" and have voted accordingly.

Well, I do see it holding up to their other bona fides, at least for me. I guess the whole "fall from grace" theme of the song just hits home for me.
I do regret how it kinda put "Violet Hill" on the backburner somewhat, but as awesome as that is, "Viva la Vida" is slightly moreso. So that gets my vote.
