oldiefan Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 That's funny haha[emoji23] I get the same feeling when a song I really love plays on the radio, or when someone else suddenly plays it! It's strange how the music can just be a background noise and then suddenly a song you love starts and it turns into all you hear. I often caught myself not listening to other people talking to me anymore when a coldplay song played haha[emoji23] Oh yes - so true. Just the tiniest bit of a song gets through to my ears and I have to stay with it to the exclusion of everything else. I've noticed the UK 'soaps' are using CP as frequent background music now. Also, I was in a supermarket today and spotted a young guy wearing his AHFOD T shirt. I had to say " Fabulous T shirt" as I was passing. I asked him if he'd been to a concert - yes, Manchester, same as me. It was great to see another CP fan. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamsue Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Ok. @ I Ran Away, I will take you up on butterflies. I have all birds but bad shape. Purple if you have any would be awesome. Fav color![emoji171] I have something you may want. I'll PM and then offer to the group if not. Thanks!

iamsue Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 About the radio songs, it is the same with me ! Or when a song comes on in a shop, even if the sound is really bad, I feel compelled to listen to it intently ! I just did some research and turns out there is a market for confetti: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coldplay-AHFOD-Tour-Confetti-/182212467839?hash=item2a6cb59c7f:g:NMkAAOSw-FZXj-cu People bid $36 for a "large handful" of bird confetti ! I mean, I know birds are rare compared to stars but $36 ?? Well, the good news is that I still have my confetti bag and my Birds (and stars) are still "flying free" to any Coldplayer who lives in the United States and would like some in a letter (just send me a PM)! I just checked and it said it is no longer available. Must have sold! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest diogo_sg Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 So, I'm currently on holidays in Albufeira, Algarve (a city in the south of Portugal) and here's what has been going on Coldplay-wise: 1) a couple of days ago, I heard HFTW playing VERY LOUD in a bar. It was amazing, really. That big bass Chris talks about is just awesome! 2) yesterday, in the morning, my dad, his girlfriend, his girlfriend's daughter and I went kayaking and while we were on the boat waiting to get on the kayaks, Fix You played on the radio. The boat was full of (British) people and some were even singing (including me)!! Besides, the view around us was dazzling! The blue sea, the tall rocks, all the people kayaking... It was such a special moment!! 3) same day, in the afternoon, we were walking by the hotel's swimming pool and (to my surprise) the Fedde le Grand remix of Paradise was playing!!!!! I had never heard it playing somewhere other than my phone before!! How cool is that?!?! PS: I also heard the Seeb remix of HFTW on the radio a few weeks ago!! 4) yesterday, in the evening, we went to a very cool shop selling several kinds of stuff (mostly Indian items such as incense, the Chakras stones, wooden stamps (inc. a Flower Of Life), handmade notebooks, tie dye tees, etc). So I couldn't believe my ears when I started hearing Paradise...followed by Clocks...followed by Magic...followed by Yellow...followed by Talk... WHAT WAS GOING ON?!?! I bought a notebook (handmade with recycled paper by Tibetean refugees) and when I went to pay for it, I asked the lady who made the playlists and told her that my favourite band is Coldplay (I was even wearing a Love Button!!). She smiled and said it was her boss, with iTunes. I got so happy!! It made my day!!! [emoji7] [emoji7] [emoji7] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisbe Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 The random Coldplay thread has become the thread for sharing our Coldplay holidays, Coldplay vacation or holiday with Coldplay or Coldplay is following us?[emoji14] First of all I'm glad I'm back here. I missed all of you while I was away. I spent my holiday with some friends I hadn't seen in a long time I had some of the most amazing days in my life. Obviously, Coldplay was with me these 4 days. Obviously, I listened to Coldplay while I was travelling. I love watching through the window looking to the beautiful views nature gives us, and listening to the most amazing band makes this such a heavenly view. The first town we arrived at was a picturesque place. We walked on the colorful streets watching the beautiful craft. Suddenly, I heard the final woo-hoos of AOAL, I couldn't be happier. I was just starting my adventure of a lifetime with my friends and I listened to the perfect song to sum up my trip. That’s how I was feeling. I just wanted to scream woo-hoo because we travel for 13 hours and we arrived to this magical place! The next day we visited a park near to a river. There were speakers playing music I don't like so I listened to ASFOS on my earphones while looking at the water, birds flying and people enjoying the view. Then we came back to the hotel, and someone turned on the TV on a music channel and the second song was ASFOS. That was the perfect way to end that they. The most random moment where Coldplay showed up was in an eating place on the side of the road. As you can see in the picture it looks like a very cheap place with no concrete floor and a roof made of palm leaves but with the best food I've ever tasted (a part from my mother's food). In this place there was a girl who was playing some music in a big speaker which you can see in the picture. She has the most eclectic music taste I've ever heard: regional music, banda, reggaeton, pop, children's music and alternative rock. She has The Scientist on her playlist! Unfortunately she didn't play the whole song, in fact it was just the beginning. But, I was in the middle of nowhere, and I didn't expect to hear a Coldplay song after hearing regional music. That moment made my day. Well, there wasn't many coldceptions, but I'm glad there were a few I could share with you. I still have some things to share with you in other threads. It’s good to be back to the forums with my Coldplaying family :) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flockofbirds222 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 My day wasn't to spectacular, however I was just driving home from visiting my grandma with my family and shortly before we arrived back Up&Up was playing on the radio! I couldn't help instantly having a huge smile on my face and now it just turned into a good day lol. :) My dad as usual suggested to quickly change the station, he always makes fun of coldplay (but luckily he let me listen to it extra loud in the end) [emoji16] 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 This afternoon was not so busy at work so I put in my earphones and put Coldplay music on - the B-sides of X&Y. Then I got into something that needed my attention and after and half hour or so I realised that I had been listening to Pour Me over and over again all that time (because the app was set on repeat). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
