December 29, 200916 yr Status Quo have been recognised as the hardest-working band in the British music industry, but the Performing Rights Society list also included Cliff Richard And The Shadows, Take That, Coldplay and Kings Of Leon, who took the second, third, fourth and fifth spots respectively, according to BBC News. PRS is the body that collects royalties for songwriters. The list was compiled based on the number of fans bands performed to in the UK during 2009. Status Quo played to 250,000 people at 27 arenas, putting them at the top of the list. Frontman Francis Rossi said: "Performing in front of thousands of fans is the ultimate experience for any band." Meanwhile, the Central Wisconsin Hub gave Coldplay a positive review during an article that praised them for music of the decade 'worth listening to'. Here is their review of one of the albums of the decade... 3. Coldplay, “A Rush of Blood to the Head” (2002): We’ve all heard “Clocks” 10,000 times too many while shopping at the mall, but there’s a reason every stores play it: It’s very catchy and well-crafted rock. That could be said about this entire album. Chris Martin & Co. show their musicianship and versatility as they move between from sleek, guitar-driven rock (“God Put a Smile Upon Your Face”) to piano-meets-strings atmospherics (“In My Place,” “Politik”) ? to love ballads (“The Scientist”). http://www.coldplaying.com/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=6913
