They've performed Lost! quite a few times on TV, and as much as I dislike Lost+, I don't believe they've performed it live ever before (correct me if I'm wrong). I suppose I wouldn't have minded if this weren't the GRAMMYS, which I believe they need something far more spectacular for.

*was also on LITii bandwagon*

 

The fact that Coldplay performs after Radiohead is gonna send Chris on a spiel beforehand about how he won't be able to live up to their performance and how the audience should prepare for a disappointment. Damn it.

My only request is that if they play Lost+, can they please play it like they did on SNL? You know, with Chris on the piano... That was awesome! :wacky:

 

But I'm sure they won't do that, they can't have Jay-Z standing there rapping with Chris sitting at a piano :\

Well we don't know that they will, that was just the rehearsal schedule.

I like Lost, but I dont like Lost+ with Jay-Z all over Jonnys riff!

Does anyone have a list of all the performers?

There you go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/51st_Grammy_Awards

 

:D

Thanks :)

 

A lot of huge names.

LIT2 would've been cooler but this was the next realistic choice. VLV wasn't gonna be done cuz the lawsuit and they just did LIJ at the AMA's. They wouldn't do a non-single this time, maybe if Jay-Z wasn't performing Swagger Like Us.

 

Should be a pretty good show, I think Lil Wayne and Coldplay have the awards wrapped up but ya never know, I mean Kanye should've won for Graduation last year and he didn't so maybe Robert Plant will take album of the year lol.

I'm disappointed that they're playing Lost+!!

I LOVE Lost! !!! :D

But Jay Z's part SUCKED! And it ruined Jonny's awesome guitar!!! Besides, having Jay Z there might take away some of the glory from Coldplay! :veryangry2:

I totally thought it was gonna be Litii!!! That would have been SO awesome!!!!

I'm glad it isn't LiTII, we all know how bad Chris' voice gets at these things, he'd have NEVER have hit those high notes.

 

At least Lost isn't too vocally challenging.

I hope JayZ throws in a dis at old Joe in his rap. :sneaky:

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!

I can totally see him doing that too!!!:D

:laugh3: :P :sneaky:

:thinking:

Good point, Mich!

But still, I would like to see something other than Lost+.

But whatever, its coldplay!! They're going to be amazing no matter what!!:D

Glass of Water would have been another good choice, but we now have to stand Jay-Z's voice over Jonny's riff.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!

I can totally see him doing that too!!!:D

:laugh3: :P :sneaky:

One of Jay-Z's lines in Lost+ goes:

Media meddles, [censored] sue you, you settle

 

They could tweak that whole line into something hilarious.

I like Lost, but I dont like Lost+ with Jay-Z all over Jonnys riff!

 

I totally agree... I really dislike Lost+ (hate seems too harsh)... Jay-Z's part seems so out of place, pointless... maybe they could've come up with a better collaboration, but this ain't it...

 

:flutterby::flutterby::flutterby::flutterby:Lovers would've been a great choice! It's a big enough song, it almost has the potential to be as big as their Politik Grammy performance, that was ace! :flutterby::flutterby::flutterby::flutterby:

I think most of the general public might not know about Lost+...maybe even Lost! in general.

The Grammys LOVE collaborations, this is right up their alley.

i'm SO glad i'm not the only one who's annoyed by that. :P

instead of doing Viva la Vida with orchestra and choir they went for the simplest solution... I like Lost , but it's not the same with Jay-Z... so disappointed it's not Viva la Vida , like Politik ... *sigh*

they do know about Lost...

thats exactly what i think too!!!!!! i really love Lost! or Lost? but having Jay z there will just take away from them :(

i just want this to live up to Politik and Talk...like the last times...:(

im crossing my fingers for them cus i want this coldplay performance to blow all the other performers out of the water!!!!!

Yeah.

 

Upon fruther consideration.

 

They should've went for something more... epic.

Are we sure that they are performing Lost? Just because it's Jay-Z does not mean that they'll perform Lost. They could perform that song or another song with him that we do not know about. Heck, they could perform Lost and then play the music for one of Jay-Z's raps. You can never tell with the Grammys.

I'm so excited for the Grammys I am going to be at la live right across the street !

So what are they playing???....Lost???

i'm SO glad i'm not the only one who's annoyed by that. :P

 

The first thing I thought was "no! Jonny's moment of glory is going to be ruined by Jay-Z!" :P
