COLDPLAY have stopped performing the song Green Eyes live because it’s about a girl who frontman CHRIS MARTIN knew before GWYNETH PALTROW.

 

He told 150 fans at their tiny gig at Sydney’s Opera House: “It’s not about the right person. It’s like an old pair of trousers, it doesn’t fit.”

Green Eyes has been replaced by a track called Moses, which is about his Gwynnie, as Chris told fans in Denver last month.

 

It includes the lyrics: “Like Moses has power over the sea/So you’ve got power over me.

 

“You’re a refuge, somewhere I can go/You’re air that, air that I can breathe/’Cause you’re my golden opportunity.”

:stunned: But they play Yellow still, and that ain't about Gwyneth! :rolleyes:

:lol: maybe they should ban all songs that are not about Gwyneth! :smug:

 

Kidding. Kinda understand him though, the song just doesn't "speak to him" now, I'd much rather hear him song that you can feel it comes from the bottom of his heart :smug:

yeah I guess, but Green Eyes is a lovely song. But then again I'm in love with Moses at the mo! :D

Me too :smug:

hey

i luv moses :D

but i still like green eyes. Well couldn`t fink of a betta song 2 replace it

luv kirsten

Moses rules! Jonny plays the guitar really well in this song! :D

Yes! Jonny's guitar part in Moses, I think, is absoultely amazing! :)

too bad about it. i wanted to see it performed live. but i understand. and the performance of it wouldn't be filled with as much emotion as it usually would be so the performance wouldn't be as good.

but... A lot of other Coldplay songs are not about Gwynnie and they're still performed. I think its rather retarded. :lol:

well all of those songs weren't written about a girl he might have been in love with. *shrug* i want that smilie back. it was so good. maybe this one can be used instead of it... :/

ah well.

Yeah... I miss the *shrug* smilie, too. :(

And that *LOL* one is just freaking me out. I like the old one better.

Its not just about the song its about chris's personal life effecting the music

I always thought it wasn't any of our business who he goes out with but

which songs are gonna get the chop if he breaks up with

paltrow :angry:

Oh jeez, why does everyone assume this is true and he meant it like that, he didn't said he doesn't sing it b/c it's not about Gwyneth, he says it's the 'wrong person', maybe he had a nasty break up with this person and no longer wishes to song about her. I mean if it were really true that he wouldn't sing about ex-loves wouldn't 'The Scientist' be struck off? AND don't credit the other guys with so little credit as to assume they would let Chris walk all over them, if they wanted 'Green Eyes' on the setlist, they'd out vote him and tell him so! :angry: :)

They were probably sick of it anyway like they were with 'Shiver'

Yeah and, although a great song, it's deff not the best on the album!

i heard moses on radio 1 on monday,and i woz just blown away,jonnys guitar part is stuck in my mind rite now

luv kirsten

lol okay nobody will miss green eyes. that song was crap. maybe yellow wasn't about gwyenth, but it's way too big a hit to stop playing. it's a coldplay staple. people expect to hear it.

 

i think this article is the cutest! :D

Aww 'Green Eyes' is actually one of my favourites! :embarrased:

They haven't played it for AGES though, the last time was probably before Christmas, so it's not like it's a recent thing.

Gwen must really make a difference to him....cuz he's doin all sorts of sacrifices with their band to make her happy.... :huh:

No he's not - the band is a democracy, he isn't their leader, if they don't wanna do something they won't :rolleyes:

hey

gud on ya

they always say,they all have an equal say in the band.Mabey they don`t c eye 2 eye but don`t u fink thats chris busisness not Jonny`s Guy`s and Will`s?

luv kirsten

yeah, cos Chris didn't want Warning Sign on the album, but the other guys DID, so there you go! Democracy in action :D

I don't believe in everything these newspapers say...

Chris only told about 'a wrong person' and these journalists speak about Gwynie and all that stuff, drawing conclusions about something they don't know...

Aaaargh, damn press!!! :angry:
