    1994. I was living in Seattle at the time and it was the first year that popped in my head based on Coldplay, though maybe 1995. hmm. It was soooo long ago. 🙂

            🫡 I’m commenting from my WordPress Homepage, so I can’t see other people’s comments.

            Hmm……1996? (I’m trying not to guess and then go down one year, then so forth and so on. 😆)

    1997 seems right to me. Lots happened in the world that year. Lost some fantastic people that year if I’m thinking the right year. But as Aleathia mentioned it was sooo long ago!

    Oh I was going to say 1999….but I think I confused Hong Kong with Macau. In all honesty when saw Coldplay I was even going to say 2000, so was quite off.

    Wow, from my senior year of high school. Loved all three of the songs but only had one of the albums; STP. Great memories from 1997
