Well,if in Estonia you don´t know anyone who is a colplay fan you can still relate to us here on the forum.Even if that´s not the same.And I guess almost everybody here is like you or me somehow.:D

 

Thats why i'm here :)

It truly is. I think it's because by loving Coldplay we know of the beautiful, simpler things of life and really do learn from our emotions and feelings, and at times Coldplays does get us through our deep emotions. Their music just makes me wiser and more open about our feelings.

 

Sounds cheesy, but it is what it is.

 

Your right, all these emotions get us thinking about life and our faults and we learn about our life faster than others.

i'm in the same situation as you too! as a 16 year old guy i'm teased constantly by other kids who like rap and rock (you know, songs about drugs, sex, and parties), but i like coldplay because all of their songs are so true and they reach right down into your emotions no matter how your feeling. i often get depressed and go to my room and blast coldplay and i automatically feel better. so its nothing to worry about. i think younger kids like us just have a more mature taste in music if you get my point

 

Same with me, every time when i get depressed or just im lonely i listen Coldplay music i get better :rolleyes:

 

I sure got your point ;)

Same with me, every time when i get depressed or just im lonely i listen Coldplay music i get better :rolleyes:

Just like Chris said: He wanted his music to make bad days a little brighter and good days even better or something like that;)

I'm 14 myself (turning 15 in a month). I started listening to Coldplay in March, this year, although I knew lots of their songs earlier ('The Hardest Part' - I hated that video :D or 'The Scientist' - I feel like knowing this song forever). I just got deeper into them. I've never really had friends, never cared about it and always thought other people at my age were stupid, just like your friends, I just couldn't talk with them, I've been different. I don't care about parties, I've never drunk alcohol or smoked a cigarette. We pretty much have never had common topics to talk about. I think it's true that Coldplay fans grow up faster, I may be an example myself - I'm a class higher at school than people who were also born in 1993 :P So don't worry, there are many people like you :)

man i'm 16 and Coldplay are my hole life!!!All of their songs have a beautiful meaning that not many people can understand and espessially people in our age!!but who cares,i mean most of them don't deserve listening that kind of wonderful songs!!

Sounds pretty much like my life, except I'm 20 now and still waiting for the other people my age to grow up. :P They still drink, they still smoke, and they still listen to rap and heavy metal (or whatever that loud, tuneless stuff is).

 

Most popular music was, and is, so bad that I never even listened to current music at all until last year, and I still didn't like it that much until I found Coldplay a few months ago. As silly as it might sound, all the complaints about Coldplay only make them seem better to me; after all, the accepted popular opinions of young adults and teenagers are usually so far from sanity it's unbelievable. If all the popular kids hate them, that probably means they're really good. :P

 

Seriously--the main reasons I like Coldplay's music so much are pretty much the same reasons why the immature masses hate them. Their songs have good and appropriate melodies and patterns, instead of just using thunderous drumbeats and shredding guitars at maximum volume. They have good, honest, and meaningful lyrics, instead of lyrics about sex, drugs, and drinking, or amazingly possessive and self-important lyrics about the singer's girlfriend. (Which is probably related to the fact that none of the bandmembers are drug addicts who think they're the greatest humans alive.)

 

I don't get why popular music is, well, popular, but I'd guess it's mostly because so many people never really mature. It's too bad...they don't know what they're missing. ;)

Hi guys, I'm new here and I'm also a very new Coldplay listener (just a few weeks :)).

I know Coldplay since their beginning but I never really paid attention to them. For me 14 years old, it was boring music, too slow and no highlight about it. Nevertheless I always liked the famous instrumental parts of Clocks or Trouble etc. and I always thought that Chris Martin has a great appearance on stage; I can even remember that some magazine titled him to be the best piano player (or something like this - you will better know than I do). And I can remember a classmate buying an album of Coldplay on an excursion and I thought in the one hand "how boring" and on the other hand "actually she does not has a bad taste".

 

So I had rather unconscious thoughts about Coldplay but they were definetly there. In a way I even admired the Coldplay fans for listening to music which has a deeper sense. I know that the music I was listening to and still listen to is a bit superficial - and I was always a bit unsatisfied about it.

 

I am 22 now and I had some difficulties in the last 3 years and grew up a lot.

Last year I heard parts of Trouble in a movie. A few weeks ago I watched the film again and now I just had to hear the song in full length. This was the first time I recognized Chris Martin's great voice and the lyrics that fit perfectly into my situation. I always thought Coldplay's music is only about the great instrumental parts. I buyed Parachutes and it's just like I found the songs I was looking for such a long time. ..

 

I will listen to all of their albums but I will take my time for it.

 

I just wanted to tell the "young ones" be happy that you explored Coldplay's music so early. It's great that you have found an access to it...

Oh and I agree, I know so many people who listen to really bad music. Very popular is not only hip hop but also house, techno and trance - I just have the feeling everybody I ask gives the same answer.

Maybe it's nice dancing to but nothing I would hear in my car or at home. But these people do :rolleyes:...

Or even metal - a girl I know for years is still listening to it just because it's cool in an age of 23 :laugh3:)
