FIRST OF ALL I DIDNT WRITE THIS>>>ITS A BLOG

 

 

One of the funnier scenes in “The 40 Year Old Virgin,” a very funny movie, shows Seth Rogan and Paul Rudd sitting in front of a TV, furiously playing a video game, all the while firing lines back and forth on the theme, “You know how I know you’re gay?” One of the answers is “because you like Coldplay.”

 

I couldn’t help but think of that scene when Rusty was cruising around iTunes yesterday, and told me he was going to buy “Viva La Vida,” Coldplay’s massively popular album from last year. I’ve heard a handful of songs off that album on the radio, and it’s easily the band’s most commercially successful effort yet.

 

But does that mean Rusty is gay? I don’t know. If he had asked me if he could download, say, Ted Nugent’s “Cat Scratch Fever,” I probably would have grunted a couple of times and said “Dude!” as if he’d just won a motocross trophy. But Coldplay? Aren’t these the guys who dress like 19th century French revolutionaries? The Beatles pulled it off on the cover of Sgt. Pepper. These guys don’t. They look like a bunch of homeless dandies. Most of their songs feature synthesizers and keyboards, leaving little room for the good ol’ phallocentric rock and roll guitar. Their music is…how can I put this…pretty!

 

Far be it from me to tell anyone what he should listen to. Like any music aficionado, I feel a certain pride when my children take a liking to the same music I like, especially when they get there on their own. Rusty and his sister Speaker both are very music-oriented, and I hear both of them singing at various times throughout the day. It doesn’t hurt that around the Wire compound we have music playing all the time, every day, in many rooms. And when Barb was pregnant with each of these kids, she spent many an evening sitting in her rocking chair with headphones across her belly, piping seminal American music into the womb. Mozart? Naw, we wanted these kids to have rhythm. It was Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Elvis, Hank Sr., Aretha, and James Brown.

 

But Coldplay? I suppose it means that Rusty’s tastes are just becoming more sophisticated. He’s also caught up in quite a few pop nuggets, like “So What” by Pink, “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz, and someone called Lady Ga Ga. Hey, this joint is a musical melting pot, so pretty much anything goes. I’m just glad he’s not into T-Pain or anyone else who has done the auto-tune gimmick to death. Enough already. By the time Cher’s “Believe” went to number one, that effect was over like Karl Rove’s career.

 

Still, Coldplay? There are plenty of British bands who rock out, and don’t give their kids stupid names like Apple. But the bottom line is, so what if he likes Coldplay? And so what if he’s gay? He’s still one of the smartest, funniest, most true-hearted people I know. I guess I’m the one with the problem. I need to try and loosen up, try to become more musically broad-minded. I mean, I’m still kinda pissed off about Aerosmith going soft after they went to rehab. I need to let this go.

 

Besides, I’ve got other things to worry about. Speaker just downloaded “I Kissed a Girl.”

I hate when people bring this shit up still. Coldplay is the most successful band in the past 10 years and maybe since U2 in the eighties.

"Rusty and his sister Speaker"

 

 

I really really don't think we should pay attention to the judgments of someone who named their kids Speaker and Rusty.

seriously, I much rather call my kid Apple than either of those...

 

When I clicked on this thread the link only said "Does this mean my son..."

 

Did I have any doubt what the rest was gonna be? :dozey:

hey! rustys not bad! lots of people are named rusty, my dad being one of them. but how can you criticize apples name when you've gone ahead and named your daughter "speaker"

no offense, but that's about ten thousand times worse. besides, you dont seem to even like coldplay, so why are you a member here? plus, lots of straight guys like coldplay. it's just a matter of being open to different types of music. and i'll have you know that coldplay's outfits are damn sexy. :smug:

I considered tearing this apart, quoting a bunch of different parts and pointing out everything wrong with it.

 

 

 

But it's not even close to being worth that much time and effort.

besides, you dont seem to even like coldplay, so why are you a member here?

ColdplayCold did not write that, it's a quote from a blog or something.

 

ColdplayCold is a fan.;)

Just wanted to say that as well.

You should probably change the thread title, ColdplayCold, like adding "" to avoid further confusions...

 

"Speaker" really is a strange name for a human being... :o (but the ending is funny)

it's up there with blanket....and moon-unit....

this was a waste...i could imagine since chris martin is a songwriter and all it has some sort of deeper meaning, perhaps "apple of my eye" think of it that way, its kinda cute

 

but speaker? what, "speaker of my pointless views inspired by scenes from movies"?

 

"Bob Wire Has a Point (It's Under His Cowboy Hat)"

also very stupid might i point out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i posted that on the site by the way...

it's up there with blanket....and moon-unit....

 

and audio science, and jermajesty....haha :lol:

Still, Coldplay? There are plenty of British bands who rock out, and don’t give their kids stupid names like Apple.

wait seriously? this person thinks APPLE is a stupid name, but can name their kid speaker? SPEAKER? :lol: sorry, i usually don't disrespect the names people pick. i think it's okay this time only because they bashed apple :thinking:
