Why Chris Martin moved to Los Angeles to make Coldplay's 'big and colorful' new album [LA Times article] Chris Martin has lived in Los Angeles long enough to speak enthusiastically about his spiritual teachers and about the benefits of cutting sugar and dairy from his diet. But the Coldplay frontman hasn't been here long enough to know that the guys handing out DVDs on the Venice boardwalk want you to pay for them. "Thanks, brother," Martin said as just such a man pressed a compilation of basketball clips into his hands on a recent morning. Dressed in a bright-blue hoodie and matching baseball cap, the British singer kept moving but came to a sudden halt when …

Hey guys, just wanted to know if anyone has any information regarding this clip from quite a while ago: Was this just a random song or was it transformed into some song on AHFOD? Thanks!

Read a short online version (don't have the magazine), here are the key quotes for you translated, including interesting info on "Fun": "It's about how to change suffering and pain into something called happiness. Life is what you make of it. So you can either sit around being depressed and resigned because so much shit is happening around you and in the world. Or you can face life with a positive attitude. By saying: Okay, there are problems, but why don't we make an effort to solve thess problems ?" The AHFOD song most reflective of the separation from GP is "Fun", according to Martin: " That's for sure the song that is the farthest away from feelings like happine…

Hey Guys. Remember that post I made a while back? http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/threads/104739-Life-In-Technicolor-ii-lyrics?highlight=life+in+technicolor+ii Turns out I was right! According to the official Coldplay website: http://coldplay.com/song/life-in-technicolor-ii/ Not that it really matters or anything, just wanted to let you guys know as currently all or most of the current websites have the lyrics wrong. (I think the original confusion came with the fact that the coldplay timeline lacked lyrics for that song, as it is a b-side) TLDR: "Time only can lead you on" is actually "Time'll leak and lead you on"

I have noticed that there isn't a place for general questions in this forum. So, this is a place for anyone to ask any Coldplay-related question. (I don't really get how forums work so feel free to move or remove this if I'm going against some rules ar anything lol)

I haven't really been active in the Coldplay fan community since the release of MX, but from what I have read a lot of people, including myself, seem to feel as though the rest of the band has kind of become more of Chris's backing band. Don't get me wrong, I think Chris is great, but I haven't seen or heard any interviews with the other 3 in a long time (if they've done any, I'd like to see them). Back during the Viva La Vida era, they were all doing interviews and seemed to all be very proud of their work. They may still have the same dynamic they used to have, but on MX and Ghost Stories, the rest of the group almost doesn't seem as prominent. That being said, th…

Coldplay’s ‘Viva La Vida’ is the best song to wake up to, according to science (and Spotify) It’s one of the few things that can get most of us out of bed in the morning – music. But what is the best jam to get you out of your jammies? Some go in for heavy metal to kick-start the day, while others prefer to ease into consciousness with some smooth jazz. However it turns out the best song to wake up to Coldplay’s anthemic Viva La Vida. That’s according to a study by Spotify, who have partnered up with music psychologist David M Greenberg to identify the best ‘wake up’ tunes. Their list was determined through a set of criteria of musical ingredients a …

Whats your favorite line or phrase? Mines: Just because im losing doesnt mean ive lost (lost?) when the futures architectured, by a carnival of idiots on show, you better lie low. (Violet hill) Oh brother i cant get through, ive been trying hard to reach you cause i dont know what to do (talk) Said im gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you can tell me something worth fighting for. (rush of blood to the head) I use to rule the world, seas would rise when i gave the word (viva la vida) give me one cause one is best, in confusion confidence (politik)

Well I've basically grew up listening to Coldplay. I'm 16 years old, and ever since I was 12 I've been listening to Coldplay. From about 12 - 14 I listening to nothing but Coldplay. I've branched out to more bands such as Radiohead (completely obsessed with them too). I've listened to them so much that my friend and I were playing guitar and singing one day and we noticed how extremely similar I was singing to Chris Martin. I had adapted his vocal style just from so much listening. Every time Coldplay is brought up, I feel extremely proud and always let everyone know about how awesome they are. They kind of feel like parents to me. More than just a band I …

As I write this, I am downloading NextVR’s app for the fourth time. What I’m trying to do is watch the Democratic presidential debate in virtual reality, but the only thing I’ve gotten so far is Coldplay in 3D. For weeks, CNN and virtual-reality startup NextVR have been building up tonight’s debate as a historic moment—”the first-ever live stream of a news event in virtual reality.” But as I resort to plain, old, boring, predictable 2-D to tune into the debate, it’s clear: Virtual reality is not ready for primetime. It’s not for a lack of trying. I searched online, on CNN’s site, on NextVR’s site, and on social media hoping to find a solution, but each time I came …
