Speed of Sound

Coldplay All songs A–Z

"Speed of Sound" served as the lead single from Coldplay's third studio album, X&Y, released in 2005. The track was written collaboratively by all band members and features a musical arrangement centered on piano and guitar riffs that build into a synthesizer-driven chorus. A physical single version became available in the United Kingdom in May 2005, accompanied by two B-side tracks.
