Paradise and 9/11

Featured Replies

Anyone else realize that then new single (or EP or whatever) is right after 9/11 the day where three thousand people died 10 years ago? Why on earth the name paradise?

 

 

P.S.

I'm still excited to hear it, just disagree with the title and date.

 

So... do you think it would have been more appropriate for them to release Up in Flames instead?

 

I mean really... I don't understand the logic. It appears that the rest of us don't understand it either. I'm not trying to be rude, but...

 

I think it's safe to say that Paradise will have nothing to do with it. NOTHING.

omg the NFL is going to have the first official games of the season on 9/11

 

HOW DARE THEY PLAY GAMES AND HAVE FUN AND GET PEOPLE EXCITED AND HAPPY I MEAN WTF I DON'T EVEN

 

It's also Jonny's birthday. HE BETTER NOT CELEBRATE IT :angry:

:stunned:

 

 

 

 

Anyway, I don't think it has anything to do with 9/11. Although, wasn't there a rumor that it would come out a day early on another thread? If that happened, I feel like that might be a little weird. Just because it's a day for remembrance, etc. Not a new song called "Paradise". I'd rather wait until Monday.

 

I don't think it would be offensive to anyone, really, but I don't see it being a great idea.

It's not even released on 9/11, FFS

The two events are not even related, it's not even on the same day.

This. They are completely unrelated.

I have to say this is the worst WORST thread I have ever seen. It's a day after and the song will have no relevance to 9/11 whatsoever. I say close this thread, its ridiculous.

 

I do what to say however, how shocking and upsetting I found 9/11 to be and my thoughts are with those effected as I'm sure this is an extremely difficult time of year. Those who lost and risked their lives will never be forgotten.

OH MY GOD! COLDPLAY ARE RELEASING A SONG A DAY AFTER 9/11???? OH NO HOW AWFUL. DON'T THEY HAVE ANY RESPECT?

 

Seriously, topic creator. Grow up. Not everything revolves around 9/11. Yes it was awful and everything but why do some people insist on bringing it up at every possible opportunity?

It's not about 9/11, it's about Jonny's birthday.

 

:nod:

it's just for celebrating it

The world can't stop just because of that. You can't find the words to describe how atrocious it was but surely a song with a name like Paradise it will help people get through it

Glad to see that everybody finds this thread stupid.

On Sept. 11th, most Americans will be partying because of the NFL kickoff. Life goes on.

My mom was in New York that day and she doesn't Coldplay and the NFL disrespectful.

I think a consensus in England is that however bad the 9/11 tragedy was, it's not our tragedy to still be mourning.

I disagree in some ways. Whenever I have spoken to people about this event, everyone still feels sad. Now I am i no way saying we can relate to anyone who was there but I still to this day feel upset when I see the images and documentaries on tv. I had to turn one off the other day as I found it so upsetting.

That's what I was trying to say. We can't relate to the Americans. We all think it's terrible but we don't bring it up.

 

As for this as a whole thread, I think it's sad. We've had a fear culture since 9/11, and Coldplay make perhaps the most optimistic music of any band in the world. Revel in that. Revel in your freedom. Revel in the fact that the man who you wanted to catch has been caught, go out, enjoy your life and live for those who died. But don't keep bringing up 9/11, because if we don't move on, fear has won.

Silly pointless thread.

Super insensitive thing to say. C'mon now.

 

On Topic, there is no issue at all with a song called Paradise coming out ten years and a day afterwards. I'm sure it will in no way be offensive. Not a big deal.

 

Agreed 100 %

ahh sorry, fair enough! As for your second paragraph I could not agree more....thats probably the best thing I have ever read on this forum. Well done you!

 

As for the creator of this thread, don't beat yourself up about it. :) Just enjoy Paradise and enjoy Coldplay's Music :D
