Coldplay

Heloo Everybody .. ;) Let's post here interesting/funny quotes Chris/Will/Jonny/Guy have ever said during Live performances or interviews ... ok I'll start I absolutely love THE HOUR interview, Where interviewer George asks chris : "Where do you get this? This is nice" (pointing to the Picture) Chris : "That is a friend of ours" George: "That's John Lennon" Chris: "Ooooh okay" ooh and one more: Sydney 2003 Yellow Live Chris : there's no excuse to be sat down in this song please, you know, If you stand up, we'll buy you all ice cream :D he owes Ice Cream to that people ;) P.S It's my first thread :confused: :)

Rolling Stone compiled the greatest artists ever and asked other artists to write why their favourite should win. Chris wrote about U2! 22) U2, by Chris Martin I don't buy weekend tickets to Ireland and hang out in front of their gates, but U2 are the only band whose entire catalog I know by heart. The first song on The Unforgettable Fire, "A Sort of Homecoming," I know backward and forward -- it's so rousing, brilliant and beautiful. It's one of the first songs I played to my unborn baby. The first U2 album I ever heard was Achtung Baby. It was 1991, and I was fourteen years old. Before that, I didn't even know what albums were. From that point, I worked backward…

Hey Guys! New to the site!! I'm a massive Coldplay fan and they've inspired me more than any other band to play music. I would be so appreciative if you could give a song I wrote a listen and give me any comments/suggestions.

Hey, if you’re in Canada, there’s this great War Child best-of CD, called War Child 10, it includes Coldplay's ‘How you see the world No. 2’. All proceeds go to Haiti recovery programs!

I know there are some song that have strange meanings, and there are also some threads talking about terrible lyrics. But there is something about this song. what the fuck? an ode to deodorant, just because it is the confidence he needs. Is there someone that can explain me this?

1. Do I mean lets make a thread with 42 jokes in it or jokes with the punchline being 42? hmmmmmmmm:confused::confused::confused::\:\:\:\:sneaky::sneaky::sneaky::sneaky::inquisitive::inquisitive::inquisitive::inquisitive:

One of the things that I love about Coldplay is that no matter how many times I listen to an album I always seem to find something that I didn't notice before. This was the case when I decided to listen to Parachutes today for the first time in quite a while. Before i share what it is that found I thought it would be interesting to ask other board members to go back and listen to the album again, really listen, and then make a post on this thread with anything new that you just never really noticed before. It's like finding out something new about and old friend and if enough people participate we can do it with the rest of the albums. What I found: So I was listening …

Prince Harry was greeted at the Garrison Museum in Bridgetown, Barbados, Saturday, by the vibrant sounds of a steel drum band playing Coldplay's 'Viva La Vida.' "Go on Harry, have a go," cried out one gnarly British paparazzi who goaded the prince as he stood and listened to the band. " I'll be doing it afterwards," Harry retorted quickly. "We're just going in to practice inside," he quipped with a disarming smile. Dressed casually in an open-neck blue check shirt and beige slacks, after thanking the steel band the Prince continued inside the former Colonial prison for a children's Garden Party, where Harry took his seat in the audience to watch a performance of tr…

Warning: Satire! In an exclusive interview with The Spoof's, Bill Skywalker, Coldplay frontman and chief charity botherer Chris Martin has announced a new direction for the band - by turning them into 'a rude bunch of bastards!'. In a shocking turn of events for the band known formerly as 'the nice boys of rock' Martin said: 'The best way to change our image was to turn into a completely different band. So from now on I'm going to be rude. My fellow band members have already started. Guy Berryman, our bassist because I'm sure you don't know their names, already shat in out producer Brian Eno's hat, and when he was leaving our studio yesterday he put it on and the ne…

http://rateyourmusic.com/list/TheScientist/a_decade_of_coldplay/ Well I put one big timeline for Coldplay's career. A discography of their releases, a gigography of their shows, youtube clips and links to their videos, and personal observations and a few clips to the shows i saw them at in Denver. Its one of nearly 300 lists I have on RYM (rate your music) but probably one of the most personal ones I've put out. While there's plenty of silent fans there I thought it would be best to (briefly) shout of my love for the band and what they've been able to do this decade. If you feel i missed any important moments or factoids that others should know let me know and I'll…

We had everyone post their months ago in this thread http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2459700 which gave some rough vote totals for people's favorite songs: http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2459700&postcount=104 However I would like to get the DEFINITIVE Top 50 Coldplay Songs as many people did not rank their lists which is very important in putting together a master list. (for example VLV won for sheer volume of votes but a song like Clocks may actually be higher on people's lists; or not) So here's the new rules: 1. Collaborations are ok, as long as the entire band was in on it (aka no Homecoming, All things come to, etc..…

After the success of the Hope for Haiti Now telethon, the digital album "Hope for Haiti Now," including live recordings of the night's performances from artists like Christina Aguilera, Coldplay, and Madonna, hit #1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 171,000 copies sold. The album was available for less than two full days when sales were tracked for this week's chart. The album is also the first ever album to hit #1 on the Billboard albums chart on digital sales alone. Coldplay's "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" is the only other digital album to have sold more copies in one week. It's also the third charity album to hit #1 on the Billboard charts, follo…

ALAN MCGEE called yesterday for the Brit Awards to be abolished - and branded this year's nominees "an embarrassment" to music-lovers. The outspoken Scots music mogul unleashed a volley of insults towards artists from Coldplay to Paul McCartney, insisting rockers should retire at 40. And he accused the Brits of being nothing more than a marketing exercise for the big record labels. McGee, 49, said: "I saw the Brit Awards nominations and I mean, God, is it that bad? They should get rid of the Brits and start again with 20 music journalists who actually care about music getting together, instead of a bunch of self-interested record company people who just vote for their …

Regular users on this board certainly know that Chris' older brother Al Martin has his own band, called Milk Teeth. I just read on Mirror.co.uk that Milk Teeth performed at the At Proud Bar in Camden, London, and Chris was there, watching them :D Isn't that cool? I wish I would have been there, too :P For all who haven't heard of Al so far, that's him (backstage at a Coldplay gig, no idea when it was taken): Source: http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/tm_headline=arctic-reception-for-boys-&method=full&objectid=18079231&siteid=94762-name_page.html
