Why is everyone hating on Coldplay's new songs so much? If you don't like it, keep it to yourself, don't go around making threads to just bash the new songs or style of the era. Coldplay are taking a new direction, I like it because they really branched off and dared to try something new; they are being creative. I mean, come on, look at the fucking piano, it looks ridiculously detailed and colorful. I really admire them for things like that. I don't know why you guys are being so closed minded about it. The new songs haven't even been out for a full day technically, and people are saying they hate them, and blah blah blah... shut up. I hate to be mean, but I mean really, grow up.

 

This is not kindergarten. If you don't like it, then that's no problem, those are your own reasons. I just feel like people are overreacting.

 

Not every single song that Coldplay come out with are going to be deep songs like Swallowed in the Sea, See You Soon, We Never Change, A Message, ect. I don't see what the problem is with having a few upbeat, happy-go-lucky songs honestly?

 

Oh, and for those of you who are the old cranky fans and think that Coldplay taking this route might bring new fans, I don't see the problem? What's wrong with new people loving Coldplay. If you honestly find that annoying, you should really consider just not even listening to any band anymore. Because it happens with everyone. Not just Coldplay.

Thank you for your time. :dozey:...

So, uh, how about that new Coldplay song?

Um, that one with the piano is nice.

This is what I love about coldplay, they are not stagnant they take risks, they experiment, and they think out side the box. If every coldplay song was they same and coldplay never did anything new then I would get sick of them and so would everyone else (even the people that want the old coldplay back). You see there is really only one option for any band that does not want to drift into obscurity and that is to constantly try new things and be creative. Coldplay are doing the right thing with this new direction and if people don't like it than they don't have to listen to it; coldplay have TONS of old wonderful songs to listen to, there is something for everyone really. Although I like it all :D

shane really liked you and made a thread about you agh

 

Well I don't know. You should just ignore it. Just enjoy the song and don't go into discussion. As long as it doesn't change your opinion.

 

ok bye

Um, that one with the piano is nice.

 

COOL, sweet piano doods but uhm, the music NOT SO MUCH. And fuck them for releasing that shit song when they have all those other good ones.

This is not kindergarten.

 

You're right, this is not kindergarten. If it were, every single thread and every single post would be warm and fuzzy. But based on your post it sounds like that's what you want...

haha, sig!

Christoper. I am being legitimate... :dozey:

It's all decorated and painted nicely. :nice:

I'm not implying that at all. I'm just saying some people are taking it too far and throwing little temper tantrums over how much they hate the new songs and ranting and raging over them.

rainbows and fucking butterflies.

Im tired of them too :D

 

But really dont know what we can do.

Since lp5 era started,they been spamming all Coldplay section with silly comments

 

If they dont like something,they should say it with respect,cause they are in a Coldplay forum

Someone made an excellent comment in another thread, once I find it I will put it in this post. And although you think it's all of the songs that people hate, it seems to me that most of the haters of ETIAW like the rest of the songs. Most of the negativity came from ETIAW, because the core of it is based on another song and therefore isn't really creative like you say. People don't have a problem with them having an upbeat song as you suggest. Coldplay have had plenty of other upbeat songs, it's just the nature of ETIAW that irks a lot of fans. (Oh and the band aren't all of a sudden being creative with decorating the piano, they did that during the entire Viva era and in the Christmas Lights vid.)

 

 

Here's the comment from a different thread:

Because a good band would love to listen to any critical opinion made by their followers on their produced song. It's an important part of the process of changing for the better. On the other hand, "omg it's the most brilliant song everrrrrrr" does very little to their progress.[/color]

People would have different opinions and different ways of expressing them. If you can't accept that, then it's too bad. People wont stop criticising the song(s) just because you created a thread asking people to. It seems the title of your thread is applied to the making of this thread at the first place.

I love it .........

^^ its not that.

for me Its the way they complaint

plus I already know that they dont like it,they dont have to say it 1000 times!

i think that if ppl dont like it then they could at least respect the fact the others do instead of some ppl saying they must be deaf and all that shit

^I'm pretty sure that that is said TO the people who don't like it either but of course you are fine with that..

what? sorry that didnt really make sense

i think that if ppl dont like it then they could at least respect the fact the others do instead of some ppl saying they must be deaf and all that shit

 

it should work both ways. exhibit A: from the world of music section.

 

IF you still hate the new Era after this gig.

 

I really dont understand you,or you are blind :P

I was too lazy to look for it up but yeah, THAT^

In my honest opinion I am loving LP5 so far to bits :D

 

 

But I think wether you do or dont like it I think respect should work both ways

The thread creator made no complaint of the manner in which people were expressing their negative opinions of the new material. Her complaint was that they expressed negative opinions... period. That is what my posts are directed at.

^I reread the first post and you're right. Which brings in bigger irony seeing the title of the thread..lol

I didn't necessarily mean it like that. I meant that the things that people are saying are a bit out of hand. Like there is a little thing called respect. I know that people are going to have negative comments, but it would seem, in my eyes, that it would be better if they did it in a different matter or just didn't say anything at all.

 

And no, I don't believe that being a "true fan" is loving everything they do? I think that being a true fan means that you support the band 100%. I'm not saying you have to like every song. To be honest, I actually don't care for Politik that much. But I don't go bashing it.

 

ETDIAW I will agree with you, isn't too strong with the lyrical aspect, but like I said before, I don't believe that every single song needs to be heartfelt and have the best lyrics. I personally believe that that is impossible in a sense.

 

I think that them taking a step in a new direction is great, I don't know why people expect them to just keep doing Parachutes era material forever? It's not exciting to watch a band stay the same, and not try to step out of their comfort zone and try something new. To be inspired by something new, such as the graffiti in New York City.
