Data Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Does anyone of you know what the Coldplay members listen to? Radiohead, Dylan, Beatles,...? (If this thread already exists, please ignore. I couldn't find anything by searching.) And maybe which Bands like Coldplay?ย (Especially: Do Coldplay and Radiohead listen to each other?)

Flying Sparks Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I think we had a similar thread before, yeah.. The first band that comes to my mind is, of course, Sigur Rรณs, who they appearently absolutely admire! They're also big fans of U2, the Beatles and Radiohead, as far as I know.. These are the most important I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol_Berryman Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Oh...Chris loooooves Johnny Cash! And I've read Guy likes James Brown, Pink Floyd and Neil Young. Hmm...the rest I know you already said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitta Rensolo Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Doesn't especially Guy like Echo and the Bunnymen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Sarah* Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 chris loves The Arcade Fire :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Who doesn't? lol Jonny likes Happy mondays I think. Will loves Tom Waits and Neil Young, and Guy said Genesis in the DVD but I think that was more 'back in the day!'. And the Beatles, he said he collected Beatles covers.

ImGiftedButAmLazy Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Well,I think U2 is an obvious one,since they pretty much took their sound and made a few alterations to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpfan50 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Jonny, Will and Chris were photographed at a Strokes gig not that long ago so I guess they like them...ย Not sure I agree that they took their sound straight from U2 and made a few alterations... I'm not a mad fan of U2 but and a great fan of coldplay... :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Sarah* Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I remember chris once mentioned supergrass and muse as well ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Sparks Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Oh yeah, Supergrass, definitely! He said that at the gig in London, when Supergrass and Morning Runner were supporting - they said they've always been "huge Supergrass fans" and also thought that "Morning Runner are great and are gonna get huge" :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgey79 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I've also heard the guys saying in interviews that they listen to Kate Bush and Kraftwerk, (they used a line from a Kraftwerk tune in Talk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasluvsjonny Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 On their old coldplayer, the one that they put other band's music that they liked they had Kraftwerk, Aretha Franklin, Ryan Adams, Oasis, 50 Cent, and a bunch more but that's all I can remember right now.

anna111 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 isn't Chris like obsessed with Bob Dylan?ย Didn't he say that Buckets of Rain was his fav song before playing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitepanda Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Apple was born to Sigur Rรณs. Chris loves them especially.ย They also love REM (Obviously), The Flaming Lips (They love their shows), Elton John, Jay-Z, and I've seen the guys wearing Joy Division shirts. They also love The Smiths. Jonny once said that Johnny Marr was his biggest influence. And of course Chris loves Ah-Ha. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petra_coldplay Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I believe Guy was from the jazz side and that kind of music. Motown is also possible, that kind of music like james brown and stuff. I believe it was guy, or jonny. But i think guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
