August 16, 200520 yr thats great, thanks for taking the time to find this. they'll probably play fix you
August 16, 200520 yr Yay! Coldplay are going now. Hope they win and we get to hear one of Chris's infamous speeches.
August 16, 200520 yr yay! this is great news, it will be terrific to see the guys on national tv once again.
August 16, 200520 yr Great. Now I have some reason to watch an award show which usually has shit performers. I don't care which song they'll play it's gonna be awesome anyway.
August 16, 200520 yr That's great news. I'm thinking they might do a medley of both songs. Isn't that what the performers usually do? Anyway, hope they win the big one that night too.
August 16, 200520 yr Wouldn't they do Speed of Sound since it's a faster song and usually performers do the upbeat ones at shows. But then again, Fix You is the new single and it does pick up the pace at the end... :surprised:
August 16, 200520 yr Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,oh i'm so excited!!I think its only 13 days away,its gonna be great!! :)
August 17, 200520 yr Oh no...does that mean we seriously have to watch it now :/ ? But what don't you do for Coldplay :P
August 17, 200520 yr Wouldn't they do Speed of Sound since it's a faster song and usually performers do the upbeat ones at shows. But then again' date=' Fix You is the new single and it does pick up the pace at the end... :surprised:[/quote'] Good point. But at the vma's 2003 they'd perform 'The Scientist'. It's also a slower :rolleyes: . But I hope they'll perform 'Fix You' to let outstanding people know how great this song is (who doesn't actually like coldplay or doesn't own X&Y).
