Ode To Deodorant
From WikiColdplay
"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 [1], 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. [2]

St Ode's Day
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. As a result, the 13th January is now known in Coldplay circles as St Ode's Day.
