Coldplay is 100% better than u2

 

 

just sayin

 

I would have to agree with you. I find Bono's voice . . . annoying--I can listen to U2, but after three or four songs I get tired of it. Whereas Chris' voice is very soothing and I've listened to Coldplay for hours on end and not gotten tired.

 

But I do respect them because I know they're a great band that have made their mark on the music industry :nod:

Bono's voice used to be brilliant. New Year's Day, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Pride, Bad, With Or Without You, Red Hill Mining Town...I'd like to see Chris sing any one of those. Plus, U2 has got FAR, FAR better lyrics. And so, so many classic songs. Sorry guys, but for now U2 > Coldplay. Come back in twenty years, we'll have this debate again.

Coldplay = U2

 

They're both mediocre in their own special ways. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go masturbate to the great masterpiece that is The King Of Limbs.

 

Enjoy yourself!

:rolleyes: :dozey:

No I honestly thought that was kindof funny. :blank:

Exactly. I love Sunday Bloody Sunday, but I really don't think any of their new material is up to scratch :shrug: And I can't put my finger on it, but Bono's voice sounds different now (but it may just be me, idk).

 

Again, exactly. In twenty years, when Coldplay has as much experience as U2, then it will be a fair discussion :)

Gesse man, Briggins didn't even start this thread with a Coldplay insult, just a simple sentence about how this was their time to shine or whatever. Why is everybody getting so defensive about this!?

:lol:

Why, oh why, does it always come to this! :laugh3: Comparing Apples and Oranges again!! One has a daughter named Apple, the other had an album called Lemon (citrus family), so that fits.. :P Hey, relax, I know, it's only rock and roll, but we like it, we like it, yes we do!!:cool:

But there was no comparison in the first place, just an example of a band's highlight moment.

:lol:

He wasn't just a good guy he was a really good guy.

WERE not getting defensive YOU ARE so stop getting defensive IT ISNT US OK!?!?!

SONG[/color][/b] called Lemon (citrus family)...

 

Fixed. :P And a wonderful song it is, too.

Oh also, Chuck Kottke's definitely right. Don't question him.

Yes, sir. Sorry, sir. Won't let it happen again!

I've only now actually listened to it - pretty cool. :cool:

Question me all ya want, I likes it!:P

(some have said the album was a lemon, but I think it's pretty good actually!)

He wasn't just a good guy he was a really good guy.

it's a good song

it's a good song

And quite refreshing too! After listening to all the really big hits U2 has out there, sometimes it's nice to hear what their experimental songs are like.

Coldplay were influenced by A-ha, so from that era, I seem to detect a little bit of A-ha in this song.

that song :lol:

I dont have time for this. We should let tweens have these kind of debates like Gaga vs Katy Perry or Beyonce vs Rihanna

We all are unique and have different tastes, just because you don't like a band or singer doesn't mean they are bad.

Some people like orange juice, some prefer apple juice

:P

that song :lol:

 

It'll make you cry if you know the story behind it.

I'M SO GLAD SOMEONE POSTED THIS!!!

 

I have been comparing them for a while now (not just their sound, but the way they've been progressing as bands).

 

U2 released 3 albums before they hired Brian Eno to work with them on The Unforgettable Fire. Coldplay also released 3 albums before they hired Eno to work with them on VLVODAAHF. The Unforgettable Fire got U2 far on the charts with Pride (In The Name of Love), and VLVODAAHF got Coldplay far on the charts with Viva La Vida.

 

I definitely see similarities, and I hope those predictions are right!! Eno really made U2 bloom, and he did the same with Coldplay on VLVODAAHF.

 

Coldplay is doing far better than U2 was in their first 4 albums (look at certifications. VLVODAAHF is already diamond in Mexico... but the internet has changed a lot) , hopefully MX is Coldplay's Joshua Tree (Arguably U2's best album aside from Achtung Baby). This would mean that Coldplay could definitely out-win U2 in the best band of the world earlier than expected-- that's if LP5 is good.

 

Mind you, U2 is still making music... while they're on holiday, Coldplay takes the limelight :D
