does thom yorke like chris martin/coldplay?

Featured Replies

I heard that one time, in history class, Thom Yorke passed Chris Martin a note that said, "Do you like me?" It had 3 boxes underneath the question, one marked 'Yes', one marked 'No', and one marked 'Maybe.' Chris, in typical, indecisive fashion, checked 'Maybe' and Thom was offended. And so it all began.

quote from 5/30 issue of Newsweek:

 

Martin admits he winced when Radiohead's Thom Yorke, one of his heroes, labeled Coldplay "lifestyle music"-a dig at the band's universality in films, stores, airports, and Mom's iPod. "We're like an eager dog just yapping around their heels, and they're trying to kick us away," he jokes.

WTF, is that true? Who does that?

To me it seems like Thom doesn't care much about Coldplay nor Chris. Not in bad way, but not in a good way, either. "Indifferent" is probably the word.

I wasn't. I never for a second thought anyone would believe it. I was just playing off that old grade-school stereotype.

 

The two couldn'thave gone to grade school together, anyway - they're 10 years apart in age. :)

yeah although thom > chris i love them both =ally

Thom is greater than Chris? In what aspect?... I think Chris is much greater popularity wise, especially since he married Gwyneth and had a child. He's also better than Thom because he's all for making trade fair and promotes Oxfam!

 

I don't know much about Thom, but it seem like he has this bigheaded-ness (I love inventing words) of when too many people praise you. It sucks that he doesn't even acknowledge Chris despite him saying how much he looks up to him.

 

Go Chris! lol :D :P

In terms of musicality (how's that for invented words? :P), I think Thom is a far more proven musician than Chris currently. As overall people go, I don't think I could pick one over the other

Well, since they are the lead singers of two of the biggest bands this day in age, I am not surprised that they fight a little.

When they were staying at an LA hotel when they both had gigs (Radioheads HTTT tour and Coldplays AROBTTH) and obviously both felt it necessary to be in the most luxurious hotel, Chris reportedly tried to talk to Thom Yorke as they passed in the corridoors but Thom just ignored him... :/

  • 6 years later...

I'm new, but I've just gotta put this down, man:

Thom on Chris:

"You won't catch me making any malicious comments on Chris Martin."

"I heard people singing like me and it just made me feel quite...depressed."

 

Chris on Thom:

"Thom Yorke ignored me at a hotel and I was secretly a bit gutted. I'm sure he recognised me. "

On Radiohead:

"We're not as good musically but we're much more attractive."

You should watch the speech of radiohead at 2002 Q Awards. you can see chris in a state of euphoria.

I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard Thom is very cold and unfriendly man. Of coarse I read this online and have never met the guy, so I have no clue if that is true....

A couple of people I talked to over at atease told me how they met him after some gig and he was really nice.

 

Soo who knows

Well, the perception the media gives of Thom Yorke is that he's cold, and aloof and such.

And he is this to people sometimes. However, he is usually described as very affectionate and happy.

His music also adds to his cold persona, even though he's not cold atall

 

"it's weird to see the public representation of thom," ventures jonny greenwood after a time, "because it's quite different. I find thom to be very affectionate and child-like."

Someone ban this troll. He always seems to post about Coldplay and Radiohead comparisons.

OK, not happy exactly, but, joyful and hopeful

To be honest, I think this whole thom-yorke-is-really-miserable thing is really overrated.

Glad to here that. I was kind of bummed out when I read he wasn't very nice, but I guess I can trust Jonny Greenwood. I think Thom is definetally in his own world though. Maybe that's why people think he's being cold?

I'M NOT A TROLL, people have been trolling ME!

I only put this on a FEW Sites, ones that have rad:veryangry2:iohead and coldplay!

AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, I BELIEVE RADIOHEAD AND COLDPLAY ARE CHALK AND CHEESE

I've written about music videos and other artist, I'll have you know, mr Daft-Punk avatar!

this is a thread called DOES THOM YORKE LIKE CHRIS MARTIN/COLDPLAY, SO what DO youthink I'm going to do?

I don't do THIS all the time!! MATE.

You're the troll, honey:D

Anyway, (that weren't to you cheese-nip 2), but yeah, because he shuns publicity and he doesn't like that materialistic stuff, the media take what they have, and all that they have about Thom Yorke is that he's moody, so they exaggerate it to make a profit.

Yea, I trust Jonny Greenwood.

And I agree, that mr yorke is in his own world, but isn't everyone?

Shut up troll. This is the third thread I've seen you comment in or make and low and behold, all are threads comparing Coldplay and Radiohead. And every time you go and say 'Don't hate on me I'm new' despite having been a member since September. MY TROLL SENSES ARE TINGLING.
