On radio...

 

Chris: Jon, let's wrap it up?

 

Jonny: I wanna play a Roxy Music song.. I wanna play Virginia Plain.

 

Chris: WHAT! You can't say that on radio, can you?

 

Jonny: Why not?

 

Chris: Isn't that a lady's bits? Isn't that when you've shaved your.. what?

 

*everyone cracks up*

"There's two nuns in a bath, one says "Where's the soap?" and the other says "It does, doesn't it?" "Think about that!"

 

That's a shit joke. Neither Jonny or Guy got it.

His helping with your homework jingle..

---

 

Suggesting a song to play on radio

 

"Let's play Hungry Heart, have you ever dropped that?"

 

Dermot goes on to make fun of him for using the phrase "dropped"... Chris says it's not his fault, he's been in America for 6 months... then later..

 

"So we would come up with ideas for something new and fresh, you know something off the chain that we've never dropped before... *laughter* "and uh.. we would come up with some joints that were like wow.. that is baaad"

Talking about playing the big hits

 

"Well we owe everything to Yellow and to Clocks and to.... Yellow and to Clocks. We owe a lot to Yellow and a lot to Clocks, but mainly to Yellow and Clocks"

Fan: How'd you get the name Coldplay?

 

Chris: We stole it. We saw some band walking down the street with it and fought them.

"The reason why we got stressed out when we got successful is because it was just a huge change. It was like in Terminator when Arnold lands back in time or whatever and he's got no clothes on and he's slightly confused, that was like us you know. And then goes into a bar and beats people up and says *in an Anrold voice* "I need your clothes". Well that's what we just needed ,some clothes. By the end of Terminator, everyone knows who that cat is, same with us" *smiles*

Carol just explained that nun joke to me... Chris is such a perv! :lol:

I don't get it :confused:

 

edit: Oh wait, I got it. That's terrible! :o

Well I'm not explaining it on here!! :)

Carol just explained that nun joke to me... Chris is such a perv! :lol:

 

Lol yeah. It's not really that funny though.

 

It was funny to hear Jonny and Guy try to figure out what it meant though.

 

C: Can you work that out?

 

G: No... Where's the soap? Why would there be two nuns in a bath?

 

J: Sharing water you know, saving water.

 

C: It doesn't have to be nuns even. I dunno, I just got told that when I was a kid.

 

G: Could it be two builders?

 

C: It could be two builders, yes.

 

G: Must they be female?

 

"There's two nuns in a bath, one says "Where's the soap?" and the other says "It does, doesn't it?" "Think about that!"

 

That's a shit joke. Neither Jonny or Guy got it.

QUOTE]

where are these from? I've never heard this before.

The first one is from their XFM residency.

 

The second one is from an interview with Dermot O Leary.

 

Both can be found in the multimedia section in Sue's fantastic stickied thread.

:laugh3:G: Could it be two builders?

 

C: It could be two builders, yes.

 

G: Must they be female?

:rolleyes:

Haha that made me rofl Kiran :lol:

 

Poor Guy and Jonny, I thought they were used to Chris' shitty jokes :lol:

 

A big thanks to Anna who took 5 minutes to explain me that joke :D

Thanks! ;)

Don't ask me, I barely understood it after Anna explained it during 5 minutes :D

Plus it's really crappy !

Okay so the first nun is asking "Where's the soap?"

 

But the other nun thinks she says "Wears the soap?"

 

So she says "Yup. It does, doesn't it?"

 

Cause the soap is wearing, cause she's masturbating with it.

Thanks for the explanation Kiran, well said :D

 

Now my life is complete, I understood Chris' joke, I can die... erm... well at least go to bed ! Goodnight everyone :nice:
