First of all, may be we already have a thread about that, if so mods could merge this one there.

Secondly if that one is on the wrong sub-forum feel free to move it to the correct one.

 

We all know that Coldplay have been compared with many bands and the other way round, about the music and even about the videoclip ideas.

 

So here i'd like to bring some light to this discussion, and we all can contribute on it.

 

The idea of the thread is to post videos or songs of other artists that remind us of Coldplay, new and old song, may be that way we can do something like a timeline to can end that discussion going around on the net that Coldplay have copycat other artists works or ideas.

 

Plus that may will help us discover new artists.

 

so i'll start with Clocks:
