wheres this from? :)

 

We'll find that out!!

- Anna and Carol Coldplay Detective Agency

 

:lol:

 

MARTIN I do have a song called ''Goose Abuse,'' which goes like this:

''I wouldn't say boo to a goose, because boo to a goose would be goose abuse.''

Which is my favorite line I've ever written, but it just won't make it on the album.

 

 

 

 

 

I am laughing so much!!! :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

He's a comedy genius!

The whole interview is here. I recommend you to read it completely!

There are so many more great comments!

 

i believe it's from this:

Here's one by Chris-

 

 

Chris- "For about a month every song had the word sad in it cuz this girl had come around to our house called Alice Hill and I'd really fancied her and she'd come round and instead like a flippping nunts instead of going 'yeah Alice we can have a drink and go out yeah I said 'Alice this is Jonny he lives here this is Tim and Jim, they live here too' umm I don't know what to do I'll make you a salad' so I made this lady a salad and it was sh**, it was really not very nice, this is what made us into an angst rockband. I made her this salad yeah and it had sugar in it big mistake, sugar and lettuce something like that, I should have taken her to a restaurant or something I didn't have any money. Anyway she left, never spoke to her again, and then that night I wrote a song called 'Panic', Alice if you're listening sorry for the salad".

LOL

Ok people here are four by Jonny-

 

 

Jonny on meeting Guy- I can't remember meeting Guy I think Guy was always used to be quite drunk

 

 

Jonny- When I was about 10 I started to form bands with people, I was in a rap group when I was 10 and that was great *laughs* I was experimenting with computer music then, I did all the programming for it, it was pretty good, the best consisted of a dog barking *laughs* I was out there.

 

 

 

Jonny on meeting Chris- Chris was running up and down the corridor with his really long curly mop hair, I thought he was a bit mad a bit wacky

 

 

 

Interviewer - So how did you think the gig did tonight? How do you tell if a gig is going good?

Jonny - I normally find if I walk on and trip over a cable as I'm walking on it's going to be rubbish

On his angry side

I had this woman the other day who for some reason was parked outside our house... and she drove me so crazy that I advised her to go to Weightwatchers (2006)

Epic.

Just came across this collection of Chris quotes on The Guardian website. Thought I'd share...

 

 

 

 

 

On playing to 100,000 fans at Glastonbury

Afterwards I went back to my parents' house and got told off for not putting the milk away (2002)

 

On first singing in public at the age of 11

Two girls came up to me afterwards and said, 'We heard you singing', and then they both giggled and ran off, as if to say, 'It was shit.' And my whole life has been that day repeated ever since (2008)

 

On self-confidence

I do a lot of apologising but deep down I'm a very confident man. I'm confident in the fact that I make a lot of mistakes (2001)

 

 

 

On Coldplay

We are the best band in the world, but I just wish my hair wasn't falling out (2002)

 

 

I love those quotes. I can relate to the first one a little bit.

:laugh3::laugh3:where did you ge the first 2??

I love those quotes. I can relate to the first one a little bit.

 

Haha...the putting away the milk or the singing in front of 100,000 fans bit?

 

love the quotes! :D

I love Chris Martin quotes

 

“I got trapped in the friendship tip many, many times. It was like, ‘I need to be a rock star because this is no good: Being the kind of guy that everybody likes but no one wants to have sex with. I don’t want to be the person that makes everybody laugh before they go off and bang. I want to be the guy that everybody bangs!”

 

“Can we got on with this? I’ve got to do AIDS and Alzheimer’s and land mines this afternoon, and I want to get back for Deal or No Deal. Plus, Gwyneth’s making drumsticks.”

- Chris Martin on Extras

 

 

“I drool all over the place…If you’re in Row A at a Coldplay show, you can really go away with a lot of DNA. You could literally re-create us.” – Chris Martin

Here's another one-

 

 

I- Were you happy with tonights gig?

C- Well, yeah

I- You should be it was a great gig

C- It was alright, tomorrow will be better

I- You got a day off tomorrow, that's why it's better

C- And there's another band playing

 

 

 

 

THIS IS A FANTASTIC THREAD!!!

 

 

 

CP

Ok this is the last one for tonight LOL-

 

 

Chris on getting a bass player- What happened was the first time I met Jonny we played a song and it was called 'Love I'm so tired' and he had this brilliant riff and I thought this guy is brilliant and I started writing and singing and straight away we had a song and I thought, that's the best thing I ever did and he was like 'well that's one good thing I've done' cuz he had a hard opinion of himself and um anyways I thought lets be a duo Simon & Garfunkel meets the pixies and um that wouldn't do we'd end up playing on ferries, and so we thought we need to get a bass player.

You like the idea of chocolate & bonadge... :wink3: or kite-flying ...:thinking: ???

 

haha i love that interview...

it makes me laugh so hard:laugh3::D:wink3:

 

On 'issues'

I judge our concerts on how reasonably priced the veggie burgers are. If I see that they're too expensive I can't have a good gig (2008)

 

:laugh3::laugh3: I love this one

Every couple of months this thread pops up again and I completely forget that I posted it :lol:

I've not seen this thread! Hilarious! Thanks for sharing :) All of them made me laugh.

Feel free to add your own... he's always saying daft things after all :P

lol

chris chris chris... you dont remember you posted this, and does chris remember when he said all that things? :laugh3:

hahah this is one of the many reasons i love this man!

  • Author

It started with a collection of crazy things that Chris has said that I found in an online article.

 

After that people just commented on them, and sometimes added their own

  • 3 weeks later...

One of my favourites:

'Our music, hopefully, is about sincere feeling. And every time I try and put sunglasses on, or mention that I might get my ear pierced, it makes me think, would ''The Scientist'' really sound as good if you sang it in that outfit? It probably wouldn't, you see. It would look good, and it would sound okay, but it would be harder....'

From this link that was posted here before:

. It's not really funny or anything though..

 

And I also love the one in my sig. It's from the Glastonbury gig at 06-16-2008.
