From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Ode to Deodorant" was the first song performed by Coldplay and released as an ensemble single. It was recorded and released in 1998 as a double A-side demo cassette tape for local concert promoters by Phil Harvey, the band's original manager. The second A-side, "Brothers & Sisters" went on to become one of Coldplay's early staples.
In an August 2003 article from Interview magazine, Coldplay drummer Will Champion commented that it "had a good ending and a good bass line, but it was a crappy song." When asked whether the song is cringe-worthy, lead singer Chris Martin joked that he doesn't listen to it.[1]
In late 2005, a cassette tape of the song was sold on eBay; a fan bought the tape and "leaked" it onto the Internet on 13 January 2006.
