I've been thinking about this for a long time now, lots of my friends can't stand Coldplay at all and roll their eyes when I start talking about them!

 

And when I meet a guy, one of the first questions I ask is whether he likes Coldplay (or this kind of music in general) or not.. Is it important to you that your partner likes the same type of music and especially likes Coldplay? For those of us who are absolutely OBSESSED with this band, it could be hard for our partners to deal with it :P

mmmm I guess I could be with someone who hates coldplay but that'd be so great to be with someone who loves coldplay like I do :D

I wouldn't mind...

 

...because, eventually, they'd be a Coldplay fan... :wacko:

hate is such a strong word

 

but ... i dunno.

coldplay almost mean the world to me ... :dozey:

Damn good question.

i'd say its pretty vital for a couple to share interests, specially if they are pretty strong. Liking same food or music isnt the same as having a certain lifestyle and i could never live with someone who doesnt stand my 24/7 rambling on Coldplay. my concert going Coldplay thing and my Coldplay shirt wearing. Same as i couldnt possibly live with someone who isnt a vegetarian.

so as a conclusion

NO.

:D :smug:

my friends like Coldplay so that's not pro for me:D

I wouldn't mind...

 

...because, eventually, they'd be a Coldplay fan... :wacko:

 

 

Exactly! :sneaky:

I think i'd quite enjoy the challenge of trying to convert them :wacko:

 

A guy who's sort of...well...interested in me :blush: at the moment likes Coldplay....it's given him some SERIOUS plus points I tell you!!!

I wouldn't mind...

 

...because, eventually, they'd be a Coldplay fan... :wacko:

 

The Conversion to Coldplayism: The Greatest Saga.

I'd read that.

:D

^ I totally agree with you. I converted many of my friends, my best friend even knows all the guys' names by heart now, I'm really proud of her :P And whenever there are baby news or other news, she acts like she's excited as well ;)

 

As I don't have any friends who like Coldplay, I had to pay the second ticket for a friend to come along with me to the gig in London and afterwards she absolutely LOVED them, she said she was amazed and that the band is great and that it was the best gig she has ever been to :D

 

I think I could do the same with my boyfriend.. The weird thing is, I met a guy in Ireland in February and when I had to leave, he said "Whenever I'm listening to Coldplay, I'm gonna think of you" - and that was the cutest thing a boy ever said to me :D

OMG. that is the cutest.

My best friends are getting into Coldplay as well, One knows them all and is loves all their songs and GUY. i actually managed one of my art classmates to stop hating them(literally) and now he stands them at least. im sure in no time he'll love them as well.

My dad is a huge fan and my mum loves them as well.

:i love converting ppl into Coldplayism.

:nice:

^ Yep, me too :D I think a person who really appreciated and likes you can see how important Coldplay is to you - and when you're important to them, they'll appreciate the band as well :D

yeah, that's it.

:D

lots of my friends can't stand Coldplay at all and roll their eyes when I start talking about them!

 

same thing with my friends...i think it's that way because i talk about coldplay all the time :D

 

and i could be with someone who doesnt like coldplay because if i like him it doesn't matter what sort of music he listens ....I know i love coldplay and i wouldn't change it because of any boy :D

I could be with someone if they didnt mind Coldplay.....maybe not if they despised them though.

Well I think it wouldn't be a problem...can't match on every point...

I hope so...as I Coldplay-maniac-aholic-addictive...but if she loves them....wow!

it would depend. None of my friends like coldplay some I'm used to it. I couldnt go out with someone who hated them tho. I'd want someone who would come to see them with me and put up with my little obsessions! lol

I'd be surprised if anyone actually cared if his/her partner thinks fondly of coldplay.

Coldplay won't determining factor of who I'm with :laugh4: cuz I'll just listen to 'em anyway!!

As long as they aren't vocal about it. Music is music, I don't care what YOU listen to, and you shouldn't care about what I listen to, either. Just be prepared for some occasional Coldplay rants.

Uhhh... depends.

 

If it's somebody I really like and share other interests whom happens to like different music, then yeah.

 

If it's somebody who labels all fans of a certain thing (s)he hates as worthless idiots, then I wouldn't waste my time with them.

 

It's common sense... which isn't so common these days, I'm afraid.

mmm it depends on the person. there are some who i can deal who wish not to be "enlightened" :dozey:

 

bottom line: people have different tastes. it isn't worth fighting over which is better/worse, so respect their choices. otherwise, if you can't say something nice, just shut up...let's keep the peace :P
