viz94 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 By searching Coldplay pics with Google I found an articlle on "triplem.com". It is about Michael Jackson fans, who hate Coldplays verson of his song "Billie Jean". I can't understand them:veryangry2: There is the article: http://www.triplem.com.au/melbourne/music/news//blog/coldplays-michael-jackson-tribute/20090716-4taw.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WordLife565 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 almost every fan of an artist or band hates any cover done, it just their natural instinct. Like I hate that stupid Punk Goes Crunk crap, and the fact that Panic at the Disco covered Radiohead...but yeah, i guess it is somewhat stupid, especially since it is meant to be somewhat of a tribute to MJ.

Vadette Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 :o I am surprised. I mean, they don't have to like it, but they could admit the performance got quality? I mean, you can make a good cover or a bad cover... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Invader Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Wanna know the IMPORTANT fact? WHY IN FUCKING HELL did Coldplay made a version of "Billie Jean"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc_squared Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Who cares? MJ fans tend to be totally "wacko" anyway.:dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpfan50 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 It's a shame they can't just see it as the lovely tribute that it, is regardless of whether you like their style or not. It's not like they are trying to do it better than Michael Jackson - it's just a nice gesture to someone they admired. It's not a big deal so I don't see why people get their knickers in a twist about it :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viz94 Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 The cover version is not something like "Hey! We can make this song better than Michael Jackson!", but it's made because of respect to M.J.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and like when the JB made the Fix You cover. But don't think I am comparing Coldplay to JB BY ALL MEANS, they suck bigtime. But if someone made a cover of the band you like, they get defensive. I really like the cover, and it's a nice thing to do for MJ, but I really wouldnt expect them to like it, just because its MJ fans, you know? Im sure deep down they like it.

nadi Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 When you come to think of it, a cover is a way of showing respect. Not all of them are good, but the thought counts :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinFan Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Well most here hate it when someone covers a Coldplay song, who cares?? Coldplay showed a nice bit of respect for the Man, but face it, most non Coldplay fans would find it ridiculous:D I found it to be pretty good myself.

Longlivelife42 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Obviously Coldplay's version was great. But I think any fan would feel the same way, if it was THEIR band being covered. Don't we all hate the Jonas Brothers' cover of Fix You? *vomits*:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
