I first heard about them after seeing the video for Clocks on a friend's webpage about 6 months ago. The video was called "Cold Fusion by Coldplay". I was intrigued, researched their songs a bit, and the rest is history. Funny how great discoveries can happen by accident.

From my friend Zac. He insisted that I listen to them even though I thought they wouldn't be any good and I found that my assumption was just the opposite. They are like no other.

I heard Clocks on the radio one day, my first exposure ever to Coldplay. I loved the song, and later I heard The Scientist. I thought "...Is this by the same people?"

 

I loved both songs and found out the titles by searching for the lyrics.

 

Boom, boom, boom, here we are... more than two years later. :smug:

Firstly i heard Clocks and i loved it then i listen some of the released songs but i didn't try to listen other songs.. with fix you , i discovered coldplay again.

Trouble got me into Coldplay. Both the song and the word literally.

lol! Sounds like there's a good story to that one. ;)

I became a fan with Trouble as well! I didn't become a MAJOR fan until ROBTTH came out, however. I remember it had come out that week and I had a fight with my dad. He felt bad and told me I could get a CD to apologize or whatever, I can't really remember. I decided to pick that one because it was discounted. :lol: Plus I had liked Yellow, Trouble, etc etc. I think it's been almost 4 years now of them being one of my favorite bands. That's a long time...whew.

i've heard "in my place" on the tv and i liked it. thats all :P

It was a hot afternoon about 4-5 years ago I was at home switching channels when I stopped on mtv and saw chris walking on a beach and heard the most amazing song I've ever heard YELLOW! love them since then! :lol:

About 3 years ago, I met a girl. I went into her bedroom. After a while I noticed some music playing in the background... it was High Speed. Then a month later she bought me Parachutes... since then I have been hooked.

I was just listening to the radio one day and I heard "Don't Panic". Then I was just addicted to them and have been since

First coldplay song I immediately fell in love with when I heard it for the first time was clocks. But I'm sure I've heard trouble before that because when I bought parachutes and listened to it properly, I knew I had heard trouble before. After hearing clocks I asked people if they knew the song, and someone mentioned coldplay...

i saw In My Place video on TV 3 years ago

my brother :)

as always..

i love him for making me listen to good music

Erm... I heard In My Place and Clocks very often on the radio, but I never really knew, that it was from Coldplay.

I really heard about Coldplay when I saw the Scientist-Video on MTV - that was great!

It is strange but at first when I saw the television while it was changing the channels,I always saw a video of a person was walking along the beach and immediately change.I never put attention to the video,Till one day.I think it was in 2001

 

I always listen the radio before I sleep,so one night I fall sleep with the radio turn on,and a song wake me up.Its was "Trouble".

 

The first time I heard that song it was strange,cause at that time my english was not very good(in fact right now is the same,but anyway)but I could feel the message of the song.

 

The night after the same happens to me exactly,the same song wake up again.The piano sound when the song started,make feel something I ever felt before.

 

After that I start to search,who was the group or person that sing that song.For my surprise it was the same group of who did not want to see his video.

 

After I finally see the video an watched "Yellow",Coldplay becomes my favorite group ever.

 

Well that was my history of how I start listen Coldplay.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post

i remember i first heard them when i saw the Yellow video clip, and i didnt like them at first! but it took a bit of getting used to... (its one of my faves now).

 

nothing much happened after that, but then my bro asked for AROBTTH cd for christmas 2003, and i got it for him. a month or two later i was bored with what i was listening to and asked him for a recommendation and he gave me that. ahh... it was love at first listen... i was one of those freaky ppl hu listened to the album 6-8 times a day for a few weeks :lol:

Was dating a Brit fella in 2002 and he bought me a copy of Parachutes. I've since moved on (in the dating arena ;) ) but with Coldplay? I've been hooked ever since. :blush:

I think they were doing something like the UK single charts in some TV channels..maybe MTV, I can't remember...and suddenly I heard this wonderful song "Yellow"..uauh it was very simple, the video as well, but I instantly fell in love with it...then came Parachutes, I had it from one of my friends, and I couldn't stop listening to it :D

 

And well AROBTTH was a confirmation, like now X&Y, and finally I've been also able to see them live two times, hope next time will be outside Italy, I'd like to see them in London :rolleyes: :cool:

I will give Brits this much - not only do they have incredible accents, but they usually have a keen taste in good music. :rolleyes: ;)

LOL! I'm guilty there too. :rolleyes: :D

I heard "Clocks" alot near the end of my freshman year in High School.. And learned to play it, never really knowing about Coldplay, and not even knowing if I liked the song, but I knew who Coldplay was forever after that. When I got Kazaa I had Clocks and Trouble on there, and that's about it... Later I heard "The Scientist" played at the end of the movie "Wicked Park" and loved it, forgot about it for a couple months, then tried to find it, and found out that Coldplay sang it. We got A Rush Of Blood To The Head (the album) for Christmas last year, and that was it. That was the beginning of Coldplay 24/7 in our house :D

in the yellow vid..didnt like them then. :embarrased:

i liked trouble...but i didnt became a huge fan.

however, in my place made me wonder and investigate more about them, the sceintist drove me crazy....i fell in love w/them :D :D :D

 

thanks AROBTH!!! :blush:

i saw yellow on tv when i was about ten and thought nothing really, cos i was like ten, but then like 3 years later i saw all their videos play together on vh1 and fell in love with them. my favourite band in the whole wide world!!!

i worked in a music store when the first came out. we got the promo copy of Parachutes, so i popped it in to see what it was about. i loved them. and i got to keep the promo CD.
