September 26, 200619 yr Well' date=' I agree to a certain point, I can't imagine calling any Coldplay song "crappy".. But if someone doesn't like 'Fix You' (though I honestly can't understand how anyone can NOT like it :P), then why not expressing it in this way.. That doesn't mean they're not real fans![/quote'] Saying you don't love it or don't think it's one of their best is completely different from calling it "crappy"!!;)
September 26, 200619 yr Well, I kinda do understand mc_squared, that he's offended when someone calls a Coldplay song "crappy" - I guess you expect other people to call Coldplay songs crappy, but not "your own people" = people who are Coldplay fans themselves, you know? :P
September 26, 200619 yr i'm not expecting anything from anyone when it comes to expressing opinions, nor have i stated that anywhere. i'm just defending Lera. you totally misunderstood me, i said its OK for Coldplay fans to state their opinion regarding their songs, not go with the flow. ;)

It comes across as rather "disloyal"......................... ;)
September 26, 200619 yr It is a difficult one tho. You can't be expected to like everything Coldplay have ever recorded/ written simply because it's Coldplay. I mean they have produced some questionable stuff in the past (in MY opinion! :laugh3: )

September 26, 200619 yr would like to think I'd have chosen a better word. But in the heat of the moment.....mis-typing........ya never know lol Wouldn't describe fix you as crappy tho. It's the lyrics that ruin it. I think the same thing of What if actually. Find those lyrics slightly cringeworthy at the start. Go on.....strike me down! lol

September 27, 200619 yr Exactly - the real Coldplay fans don't hate it. It's totally inappropriate to slag it off like that.;) Well, if all real Coldplay fans are supposed to be blind and say they like every song even if they don't then yeah, I'm not a real Colpdlay fan. I'm not a real one anyway though.
September 27, 200619 yr give me real, don't give me fake ;0) I don't think any of us can classify ourselves as 'more of a fan' than anyone else. We all get different things out of being a fan. So don't think of yourself like that lera. You are a real fan! ;0)

September 27, 200619 yr I'm gonna have to agree with Lera on this one. X&Y just reeks of a band trying to be as big as possible, while keeping the same musical writing styles, so they aren't really creating anything new. (Clocks/Speed of Sound)
September 27, 200619 yr x&y is one of the best albums of this century what says also more than 8 milion sold copies! fix you is probably the best Coldplay song and who dont think is sure Radiohead fan,cant complain it,but i love Radiohead! Coldplay is best band ever and in present too and nobody cant beat them,so this is no point,they are the best and i hate people who hate x&y! they are jelaous! Sorry but this comment is ridiculous.....yeah everybody's got their own opinion-.---- but if you can show me ANY proof for what you've said then you are gooood.... it's a bit too far fetched.... best album of the century...:laugh4: Even if I was a hyper Coldplay fan......I would consider things as real....and I would still be able to criticize my favourite band...
September 27, 200619 yr People who criticize other people's opinions are crappy! Most of us do live in a mostly free world, and are entitled to our opinions. X&Y was indeed a mostly crappy album - that is my opinion. You like it? Good for you. I don't. Doesn't make me any less a fan for not liking it, or not knowing their birthdays or making strange threads about their kids. I just didn't think it was a great album. I didn't even think it was all that good. I would rate it ok. That's it. Love it, leave it, like it or don't. I thought this was a thread about people's thoughts on the album, not people's thoughts on other people's thoughts. :rolleyes:
September 27, 200619 yr ^ah come on.......I only have to comment on other peoples' thoughts if they sound quite unrealistic.... I just don't like it if somebody says something and doesn't show me any proof....
September 27, 200619 yr Well her name is an anagram of real' date=' [/i']anyway!!:rolleyes: Well that's a sign for sure.
October 22, 200619 yr They went too far experimenting... there's lack of meaning in the whole album, some songs are even too dumb, IMO like Fix You and Swallowed in the sea...
October 22, 200619 yr well I think x&y is ok... it was the first coldplay album i listened to so i guess if i had listened to it after arobtth and parachutes i would have been disappointed.. but it is the album that got me into coldplay so I have to give it some credit. parachutes and arobtth are better though. :) they just have this special undescribably quality.... it's quite hard to explain but i think some people know what i mean.
October 22, 200619 yr I think X&Y is missing that connecting quality. It's like X&Y was made to play in stadiums and no where else, for ex. on all the acoustic session, they really don't play that many songs from X&Y. I don't even bother listening to the acutal CD anymore, I just listen to concerts. Unlike AROBTTH and Parachutes, you can't listen to it and feel connected with most of the songs, it's missing the soul AROBTTH had and the feeling Parachutes had. It's still a good album though... ehh... just my opinion... =D
