Request to Coldplay

[Saffire]

Please make another Parachutes.

 

Don't get me wrong - I love Rush of Blood just as much as Parachutes, but for different reasons. Each are superbly good at what they do.

 

From the tracks I've heard on X&Y, I'm inclined to believe Coldplay are attempting to become even more "epic" (or "mega" as alot of you have jokingly said, using Chris's own word). And that's cool, but there needs to be room in there for some of the old-fashioned slow-paced guitar-driven stuff like Sparks. Not EVERY song has to be euphoric or climax to the stratosphere (like What If).

 

Certainly, some people here will disagree with me, or indicate that Coldplay are attempting to stake out new ground. And that's cool, but I'd prefer if they'd mix their albums up - with the epic and the slow.

 

Right now it sounds like X&Y will be nothing but epic (even Til Kingdom Come is said to be fast-paced). It's hard for me to imagine a band reverting back to slow-paced songwriting after two albums of mega - but if X&Y does really well, the band might be inclined to continue on this path. I don't know Chris's psychology.

I once was listening to a radio interview with Chris and Jonny, and one of the interviewers asked Chris is he's ever gone online and looked at the different fansites, and Chris said he wouldn't even bother or something like that lol.

Being serious I'd be indignated if he really thinks that way.

I've a feeling that's what Chris is trying to convince himself of (that fan's opinions don't matter a twat to the direction of music they're taking)... But I think he prolly secretly does browse through what we say... he being the neurotic & perfectionist he is :D

 

And I'm sure he's a very happy man :lol:

Well, for me would be very sad if he really doesn't care about us in the way we all care about his band, how we get crazy with their songs, how we spend so much time here talking about them and their music... you know Coldplay is like the best band I know and I guess we're all here because of them. Have to say that would be so disappointing, I even have seen some attitudes in Chris of "indifference" for his fans before... :shame:

I love their music the way it is. I don't think it's really necessary to revert back to their original styles.

[Shiraz]

From what I've heard of X&Y so far, they do seem to be hanging on to that AROBTTH sound......but I'd rather see more of the fast parachutes song styles on X&Y, like Don't Panic and Shiver. A little bit of everything.
