*BUMP!*

 

LMFAOOOOOO :laugh4: .....

 

Chris’ special dedication: chris dedicated the performance of “til kingdom come” to a 9 year old boy of bronte who:

“when jonny and i were walking on the beach, he kindly informed us that our music is shit………..

he was a cheeky little f**ker, so i kindly informed him that his balls havent dropped and he looks like a tosser…….

then the police kindly informed me to leave the country very soon…………………..for the second time”

:laugh3: :laugh3:

 

I think I remember one from the concert I went to last year in San Diego, CA.

 

Chris wanted everyone to pop the yellow ballons, so when someone poped what he thought was the last one he said something like this:

 

"Well you win a night with our drummer Will, in the hotel of you choice" :shocked2: :lol:

and then someone pulls out another yellow ballon

 

"Well you just ruined(sp) my joke, thanks a lot":lol: :lol:

 

Thats what I remeber the most about that night, the rest is kind of blurry.

:laugh4: :laugh4:

 

Oooooooooomgggggggg it's hilarious!!

On Andrew Denton

Andrew said that he can't write a song.

 

Chris: Ok, what is your favourite tree?

Andrew: Liquid Amber

Chris: Oh shit

:lol: I wanna see that interview.

More quotes from the Andrew Denton Show:

 

CHRIS MARTIN: So it's not what we've done, it's what we're going to do with it. We can either get really into coke and hookers, or we can - yes, we could just do that.

 

ANDREW DENTON: Can you go back now and listen to 'Parachute' your first album?

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: No, no, no.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: When will you be able to?

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: That's a fantastic question. I think if I ever get married again I might put it on to impress someone but I can't imagine that ever happening.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Did it work the first time?

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: No.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: We were walking down on Bronte Beach yesterday, and we walked past this group of guys playing soccer, like everybody is in the world at the moment, and they were all from the Bronte Beach Surf Club. One of them is like, "Oh man, I love your music," and then another was like, "You guys suck," and then when we were, so it started really positive. It was like, "Coldplay, Coldplay. You guys are great, you guys suck," and then when we were far enough away to not be a threat anymore, it's like, "Your music is terrible". So we're well aware that we have to improve, you know, and before we went past Bronte Beach Surf Club we weren't so sure.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: I'd like to thank that nine-year-old guy, whose balls haven't dropped, for ruining my life.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: It's funny because when someone insults you, like to your face about your music, the first thing you want to do is pick on something about their appearance. It's a terrible thing but I had this - I don't know why I'm talking about this - but I had this woman the other day who was, for some reason, parked outside our house because she wanted to get something or other. I would never say it to anyone else in the world, but she drove me so crazy that I advised her to go to Weight Watchers, which was, like, a not very nice thing to say and I'm not proud of it.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Well busking is great. We've only been busking twice. The first time was, our drummer Will and myself had no money and this must have been in 1999, and we both were saying to each other, "You're really good at singing and I think we were quite talented," and he would say to me, "No, I think you're really quite talented, and you know we really could do something." So we had this great self-importance. So one day we said, "Okay, we're going to go into the middle of London because we're great at music," obviously, and we're going to set the town on fire with busking, and on a Saturday we're going to have all the kids round and we're going to make tonnes of money and we're going to fill our hats or caps. I can't remember the specific headgear. We know we're going to really make everyone's afternoon great and we went busking, and we were there for five minutes and we played Mrs Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel, and then we played, I think, something from 'The Jungle Book', and then we got moved off by the police. And we made nothing. So that's when we decided that doing covers probably was not going to - and then we realised we weren't actually as good as we thought so we went back to square one.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: I think you have to have long hair to play a stadium, because if you flick your head in a stadium and you don't have long hair, the person at the back just thinks you're having some sort of attack

 

CHRIS MARTIN: I find it easier to play to 20,000 and to make it more intimate because I'm less intimidated by the one guy in the checked shirt, you know? Or the handsome man with the tiepin, you know? I can just see a sea of people. I can just see a sea of people...

 

ANDREW DENTON: Oh, this is obviously a private plane not a...

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: It was. Don't want to say it on television.

 

ANDREW DENTON: No, it's alright, you're allowed to have a private plane.

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Well, this is one very special instance.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Because?

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Because we were doing something for somebody and it's complicated. It's embarrassing, I don't like to say it.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: I do get embarrassed about it. You know why? Because it's embarrassing.

 

(about privet planes)

CHRIS MARTIN: Yes. Well it's just like heaven with DVDs. You know, I don't know if in heaven you can watch 'Backdraft'.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: No, that's hell. That's definitely hell.

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: But on this one you could, and it's very nice and people know you and come up and call you by your first name and they're constantly offering me sushi. It's just delightful, you know?

 

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Yes, we call it the 'Tall Poppy Syndrome'.

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Yes, okay. Well we call it the tall -(long pause) I don't know.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Okay, "...just said I was a wanker and what do I do about it?" They say, "Well, you know, in 1986 they said I was a wanker, and I'm obviously not a wanker,"

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Do you have any critics?

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Mm'hm.

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Let's get them.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Because I know a lot of people in show business--

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Come on, man.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: It doesn't matter...

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Let's get them.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: 50 per cent of people who hate us and the other 50 who really hate us.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: "Liquid Amber sing to me, you're my very favourite tree." Just start going like that you see.

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Yes.

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: You know, that's the chorus obviously.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: You know, "Liquid Amber, friend of mine, where I got stoned for the first time." It could be like that. I don't know if you've done that under a Liquid Amber, or where I kissed my favourite girl. You know, something like that.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Something cheesy. Always go cheesy for your first song.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Exactly. "Liquid Amber, not much fruiting, but there's lots and lots of rooting." Exactly. So, you know? That's very good. So there we've got it, we've got a song now.

 

(Abotu Gwyneth)

CHRIS MARTIN: Well that's particularly hard because she's had a number one in Australia and we haven't. So...

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: Do you argue about that?

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: That's as much as I can say on my private life, but that is obviously...

 

 

ANDREW DENTON: But are you aware of...

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: ...A divorceable issue.

 

 

 

CHRIS MARTIN: I'm a lady-killer.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Also we always talk about this thing, 'Fair Trade', and when the time came for us, when we were a big band and everyone started offering us commercials, like you could advertise this soft drink or you could advertise these shoes or this make up - not make up - but, you know.

 

CHRIS MARTIN: Coldplay is for people with great taste, intelligence, incredible good lookingness, talent, ability, success, grabbing of life. Coldplay's for people who know what life's about. They're always entertaining. Delightful to talk to. Sweet, charming, incredibly good in bed. Virile. They have incredible success with girls, or boys, or both. They're generally just the world's best citizens. Maybe I'm biased, but I'm definitely right.

:P

The last one is awesome! :lol: That one and "I'm a lady-killer" :lol:

Those are great. LMAO! :laugh3:

hahaha i love the quote about the 9 year old :P

"I think you have to have long hair to play a stadium, because if you flick your head in a stadium and you don't have long hair, the person at the back just thinks you're having some sort of attack"

 

LMAO!!! :laugh4::laugh4:

Such a good interview!

DARN RIGHT.

 

we're all just incredible, aren't we? lol :D

^^ Yep! We really are :D

Chris: "Each of us had very, very strict parents who would lock us in our rooms until we learnt a new chord. Will's parents were particularly harsh. He was not allowed food until he could learn a new Beatles song every day."

**Screen goes to Will who looks serious**

Chris: "That's why he's so depressed."

 

:

Chris (to Jonny): "Did you have lessons? Piano lessons?"

Jonny: " I had some piano lessons... then my teacher gave up."

Chris: "What, cos you were that bad?"

Jonny: *laughs

Chris: "You were unteachable."

 

LMAO. Good stuff

Some 2003 DVD quotes, sorry if they have already been posted:

 

Chris: What I object to about liam Gallagher’s comments, is that you look more like a geography teacher.

Guy: That’s not true

Chris: It is true. Look at his jacket.

Guy: What about that jacket?

Chris: Do I look like I’m about to tell you the capital of Peru? No.

Guy: Look at your Spanish Shirt. Spain’s part of geography, isn’t it?

Someone, don’t know who: Part of it

Chris:[mocking] “That’s part of geography, isn’t it?”

Chris: … we all look like teachers.”

 

About being back from Touring, Guy: I find myself being really stressed. When I'm back for the first day in the house, i've got nothing to do. There's no-one to tell me what time I've got to be where. There's no one to... cook my dinner.

 

Chris: I wish everyone didn't ask us about how boring we are.

 

Guy: And the phone just doesn't stop ringing all day you know? I just wanna... *phone rings*

 

Will: It makes a difference when you've got people that are trying to get interesting answers out of you.

Guy: (on the phone) An entertainment magazine? OK.

Will: You get so many that are just... really crass, asking really stupid, pointless questions.

Guy: (still on the phone) The thing about pizzas, it's the thinness of bread which makes a good pizza.

WIll: It just makes for a bad interview.

Guy: (still, on the phone) Dodgiest musical influences? That would have to be Genesis. Do you know who that is? Phil Collins, yeah.

Will: There you go.

 

Interviewer: How do you prepare as a drummer? Do you do any exercises?

Will: Uh, Table football.

 

Person: Oxfam. A million sign-ups. Desmond Tutu was the millionth.

Chris: You're joking.

Person: No.

Guy: Was that a coincidence?

Person: Pardon?

Guy: Was that a coincidence?

Chris: Yeah. He just happened to be at one of our gigs the other day.

 

Jonny: (answering the phone) Hello? Hello Mike. Really? I don't know you either, so it's OK. I'm Jonny.

 

Chris (I think), when they are driving up that mountain: ... Are the brakes still working?

 

Jonny: Who wants a run?

Will: Race you to the top.

Jonny: *runs off*

Will: Jonny! Not a good idea.

 

WIll (I think): This has to to hold a record, for the highest interview ever!

 

Jonny: I always forget my pass... *is walking to the... back stage I think*

Security: Can I see your credentials, please?

Jonny: I don't have mine yet. I'm in the band.

Security: I'm sorry.

Jonny: It's OK... I'll show you a picture.

Security: Do you have a photo ID?

Jonny: Yeah.

Security: Mind if I look at that?

This thread = awesomeness to the max and back!! Has cheered me up entirely for this afternoon. =)

 

'Martin will disclose only two things about the album title: that it refers to the "tension of opposites" and that it was chosen over "The Outstanding Pectorals of Guy Berryman."'

“I could sing something like [sings] What colour shall I paint the living room?/Blue suggests soppiness, black suggests doom” - Chris

And the one in my signature, from the Enough Rope interview..so completely and utterly true.

Love love love love love to Coldplay!! And all their fans with their incredible good-lookingness and such!! <3 <3 =)
