While "Parachutes" may lack the chart-topping hits that have defined Coldplay's latter works, it will go down in history as the album that introduced the world to it's greatest band ever. That's not to say that "Parachutes" fails to bring some quality music to the table, with Coldplay fan favorites like "Shiver" and "Everything's Not Lost". And of course, there's "Yellow", which to this day, unites the crowd at concerts like no other song. So while "Parachutes" may represent Coldplay's humble beginnings, it's a quality album that proves why the band wouldn't keep that status for very long.
