The Oracle replies: They were in London but had been due to fly to New York to perform a couple of days later. That day is also Jonny�s birthday but there were no celebrations in 2001. :stunned::confused:
October 24, 200817 yr "the shadow of a flower made by the moon is sad only because the sun will never see it" This kid kicks literary behind already :stunned: October 23, 2008 - submitted by Constance, Chile Q. I have a serious problem and it is my shyness, I'm in a music class at school, but I am about to have a very bad qualification because I do not dare to play guitar, piano or sing in front of people. With just think that there are people watching and listening me, I am very nervous. But I really want to demonstrate to others that I can be good at what I like, which is mainly music and playing the piano. What can I do? The Oracle replies: It�s very hard to break the cycle of fear and nerves but it can be done. It will take bravery on your part but very many people get nervous before performing, even famous people. Nerves can be a good thing and help you give your best. There are many things you can do to help your self-esteem. There are books you can read, CDs you can listen to and mantras you can repeat to yourself in the mirror. The main thing you have to do is to start believing in your own talent. If you push yourself out of your comfort zone you will find with time that you will get used to performing in front of others. When you hear the effects of your playing you may gain in confidence too. October 23, 2008 - submitted by Jon, United States of America Q. Where was Coldplay when 9-11 took place?

October 24, 200817 yr A few days ago The Oracle answered a question from a guy named Kelly from the USA about the scratched out songs on Viva la Vida's original tracklist. She said Viva la Vida was one of the scratched out songs. Has anyone asked her yet why Viva la Vida was scratched out? Was it to make it more of a surprise or was it because Viva la Vida was not on that original tracklist? If anyone hasn't asked, I'll go ahead and do it.

October 24, 200817 yr I've just sent a question to the oracle, thanks to a thread that mygdalom opened yesterday. here is what i've sent to the oracle: Hey i've been thinking that as the album starts and ends with so similar music (LIT & DAAHF), for the lyrics it gives the idea that "Life is just a Dream and it ends when we wake up" when i got to that conclusion about the album, i inmediatelly remember a spanish play called "La Vida es Sueño", some lyrics on the album are a bit related to that play, i'd like to know if does Coldplay know about that play and if it has influended their album. some info about the play i am talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_is_a_Dream thanks in advance. Hope it has not been asked before and that they answer. If they have read it, that'll be so cool. :cool4:

The Oracle replies: It is indeed true that Chris� great-great-grandfather, William Willett, was the inventor of daylight saving. October 24, 2008 - submitted by Melissa, Canada Q. Dear Oracle, as I am sure the members of Coldplay had to experience before they were able to make a living from their passion, I am working more than I am creating (I am an aspiring writer), and I want to quit my job to follow my dreams (I have saved a lot and can totally live without a job for awhile), but I am afraid of following my dreams in case I cannot publish my book. What would you do? Would you stick with the job that doesn't allow time to follow your dreams but is "secure"? Or would you follow your dreams? The Oracle replies: If you truly believe in yourself you have either got to give it all your time or make time around your current job. You say you haven�t any, but can�t you make sacrifices to find some? It�s tough in the publishing world but as someone we know and love said, �if you never try you�ll never know�. Personally, I think if you can afford to survive whilst pursuing your dream, go for it! You only have one life so better to live it without regrets. Or should I say in this case, better to regret what you did than what you didn�t. back October 24, 2008 - submitted by Hector, United States of America Q. Who came up with the album cover of Coldplays 2nd album, A Rush of Blood to the Head? It's amazing. The Oracle replies: The cover is the creation of Norwegian artist Solve Sundsbo. back

October 28, 200817 yr October 28, 2008 - submitted by Juliana, United States of America Q. Hey oracle! So last night, I was watching SNL because Coldplay was going to perform. It was spectacular. however, at the end of Yellow, Chris said "barack obama", clearly showing his support. that's perfectly fine, but can he even vote in America, being as he is from Great Britain? The Oracle replies: I don't usually pass comment on politics/religion/personal life etc but this is a hot topic so figured I might as well join in! So, Juliana that may be true but don't forget he has children who are part of an Anglo-American family through his marriage... October 28, 2008 - submitted by Raymond, Canada Q. If Coldplay were hosting a party, which of the four band members would be: a) DJ? b) bartender? c) off in the corner caught up in an intellectual conversation? d) last man standing? The Oracle replies: Super question Raymond! a) Will b) Guy c) Chris d) Jonny October 28, 2008 - submitted by rohan, India Q. How can I get the new Prospekt's March cd without buying the Viva la Vida special edition ? The Oracle replies: I think a few people are a little confused. You don?t have to buy the album to get Prospekt?s March, you can buy it separately OR as part of a special edition of Viva la Vida as it says HERE. In fact, we also announced that you?ll be able to order it from this very website.
