Coldplay AMA awards LIJ

 

^ I noticed as well.

He must have been VERY nervous playing in front of other well-known musicians, some of whom are friends.

I'd be a bit apprehensive too. It's like doing a massive school recital or play in front of your peers. :uhoh:

 

Hehehe, I loved how he flubbed up the 3rd chord into LIJ and giggled about it. :heart:

So Chris, so humble :nice:

I found this on Yahoo music from a reviewer's blog:

 

"Coldplay probably delivered my second-favorite performance of the evening, after Annie's. Compared to most of the AMA acts, they came across as positively out-there avant garde (they were probably the only artist at the ceremony whose album was produced by Brian Eno--I highly doubt Miley's was), delivering a dynamic performance in the center of an autumn-leaves windstorm, dressed in their vaguely fetishy crossing-the-Delaware military uniforms. It seemed like everyone loved this performance. Everyone, of course, except for the poor janitor who had to sweep up all those dried leaves."

 

He obviously didn't know that they were butterflies.

Just saw this from a blogger on yahoo, thought you might like it!:

 

:embarassed: Sorry ~ I didn't read the earlier thread before I posted the same quote. Smart minds think alike!

why does chris get so nervous on tv? I've seen waaaay better performances of this song on youtube, his voice is so shaky this time, and I've seen Chris running and jumping more too, so I just don't understand why this was so bad :(

but tell me, did colplay win anything?

Coldplay was sooooo robbed last night....like really Chris Brown....eww! Come on America! See....I soooo do not belong here....UGH!! I need to move to the UK!

Well I guess we will see how this all pans out at the Grammy's....I hope they can appreciate real music! :D

they won nothing.......... :\

 

but i think he gets nervous because he's used to sing in front of crowds that absolutly adore him, and getting an award ceremony crowd excited about a performance is next to impossible...... ergo, his nerves and insecurity get the best of him......

He gets nervous in front of other bands/celebrities.

 

I don't think he was that bad. His voice was shaky. I liked his movement though.. not TOO over the top. It was fine.

 

Shit happens. Lol.

Whats going up with Chris his voice? :D

Or the mic?

 

I think, he needs a cup of tea?! :D

Okay - I´´m a biig Coldplay Fan but that sounds absolutly terrible! :P

Chris, you can it BETTER! :P

they won nothing.......... :\

nooothing? bah!! but the jon@5 broth#r! did?? wth is wrong? I mean it's ok if it was a nickelodeon awards but someone who is more than 12 or 13 and likes those guys must be retarded

sheeesh that show was AWFUL front to back. Coldplay did great (minus a few mess ups)

 

the categorys and nominees were just laughable...what a odd show

so daughtry, linkin park and chris brown beat coldplay up?

this cant be true.. it's even illogical!

does anyone else get the feeling that chris was wasted?

 

i LOVE them, but just puttin that out there

I didn't think their performance was terrible probably one of the best of the nights (in comparison). But the award show in full perspective sucked ass. I waited all that time hoping Coldplay would win, but they just loss, and loss to suck ass bands too. Totally not fair. What a waste of my time, and Coldplay's time. Hope they didn't stay the whole time!

But all in all at least Chris looked A-M-A-Z-I-N-G right!? :D :D :D :D :D

My friend thought the same thing (she is a huge coldplay fan as well. It didn't come to mind when i watched it. But that was the first thing she said about the performance. I loved when he rolled on the floor lol too cute:laugh3:

 

Oh well they still are the best band BY FAR out there. They are AMAZING live and I'm sure he was nervous. I've heard that before that he's gets nervous when he's in front of the camera and other artist. That makes him human

One thing ive noticed coldplays the only brit act to be nominated at all.... in the AMA's I guess thats a feat...

Coldplay doesnt seem to ever have great performances at these kind of things. They have always had subpar performances at the grammys and the MTV awards this year werent good at all just like this. But i dont really see it as a problem b/c this is a much harder thing for them to do. It's harder to perform in these kinds of things w/ so much attention on one person or group of ppl and i think its good that chris isnt always perfect.
