Samuel_94 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 um,was good...but did anyone else had the impression that chris sounded a bit "stressed"...? Is it any wonder with 17 milion in the UK alone watching? :D;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shira Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I watched the performance again and i just have to say that Guy looked really miserable and it looks like he just didn't want to be there at all, unlike will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I watched the performance again and i just have to say that Guy looked really miserable and it looks like he just didn't want to be there at all, unlike will. Yes indeed, he looked like "WTF am I doing here!?" Again judging from twitter the publicity they got last night has created a massive jump-on-the-band-wagon following of new fans, particularly teenagers who A. Thought their music was dreary/bland/depressing before they heard Charlie Brown or/and B. Didn't realise how hot Chris Martin was before he got tanned and started going to the gym :lol: Ahahaha! :laugh4: Spot on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I watched the performance again and i just have to say that Guy looked really miserable and it looks like he just didn't want to be there at all, unlike will. He may looked like that but still being sexy, as like Coldplay & Chris Martin he was trending worldwide right after their performance :charming: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Yo! Coldplayers! Guess what! Coldplay went on X Factor to promote and sell their music! Just like all the evil manufactured pop acts you despise so much! But they're REAL and AUTHENTIC so it's ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Just found this on the offical X Factor youtube page. Apparently they've changed the name of the song and everything. Silly X Factor. :angry: Stupid is as stupid does. :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 :facepalm: LOLZ. Fail. Bet that journalist feels a right numpty :lol: This :D I was not at all happy that they'd agreed to do the show and I absolutely HATED the idea of them dueting with one of the finalists. Thankgod they refused (if the reports are to be believed). As rampantly defensive as I am of the boys, I'm not sure I would have been able to forgive them if they'd gone ahead with a duet :laugh3: So glad they've chosen Charlie Brown as the next single, it's such a euphoric colourful song that epitomises MX as a whole perfectly. And I think they're the only band ever to play two songs on the show in one go. They totally nailed the performance and pretty much stole the show off everyone, including the awful girl band winner. The final results were a total anti-climax after the awesome spectacle of the wristbands and their REAL musical talent :awesome: It was a great idea giving them to the audience for the performance because from what I saw of the reaction on Twitter a lot of viewers (some of which think of themselves as fans :dozey:) had no idea about them or that they'd already been used at previous gigs and were all freaking out over how awesome it was and saying how desperate they were to get tickets to see them live in the sold out summer stadium shows :D Ah, the wonders of flashing wristbands, a bit of confetti and a handsome bass player :lol: Again judging from twitter the publicity they got last night has created a massive jump-on-the-band-wagon following of new fans, particularly teenagers who A. Thought their music was dreary/bland/depressing before they heard Charlie Brown or/and B. Didn't realise how hot Chris Martin was before he got tanned and started going to the gym :lol: Paul McCartney did two songs. I'm all for proper bands playing on the X Factor. Show them all that there is no substitute for hard work and songwriting. But the duet thing... No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viva4life Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 +1 More Mylo love please! Do you think they might play at the Grammys? Could something like this be pulled off? Everyone... would be stunned and amazed. They HAVE to perform at the Grammys this year. I feel its gotta be Charlie Brown with the xylobands, or maybe a duet with Rhianna in POC. Everyone here thinks shes the greatest thing ever lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveintechnicolor Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Paul McCartney did two songs. I'm all for proper bands playing on the X Factor. Show them all that there is no substitute for hard work and songwriting. But the duet thing... No. Ah right well I did say 'I think' ;) Plus I didn't really think of McCartney as a band per se lol.

viva-la-coldplay Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Teenagers who A. Thought their music was dreary/bland/depressing before they heard Charlie Brown or/and B. Didn't realise how hot Chris Martin was before he got tanned and started going to the gym :lol: So I never, ever, ever believed in A (I've always loved their music with all of my heart and defended it when it was called 'depressing' - which, to this day, I maintain it is NOT!) but are we saying that B is a bad reason to love Coldplay? :laugh3: Because while it's not the main thing I adore them for, obviously, it isn't a bad bonus... :lol: Just sayin' ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC34127 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Thanks for the video! Charlie Brown has become my new favourite. Paradise was ok too. ;) Actually it was, still get goosebumps during Jonny's solo. Yeah, why can't Jonny shred it on the studio version as much as he does live? I love his guitar solo on the live version of Paradise, it is brilliant. Paradise is one of my favourite Coldplay tracks EVER! Must video my soon to be four year old (who is word perfect, pretty much) singing the track and upload it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin Z Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Sort of makes me sad that Guy (and possibly Will) didn't seem too comfortable performing :( But in the end I think it was a great move. I know it's sort of appealing to a new generation of teens, but it's not like they're changing their music for that - it's still the Coldplay we know and love. And because of this performance, my Facebook/Twitter has exploded with people amazed by the performance - sort of feel like saying 'I told you so!'

Nikola Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 They (Chris) said they always suck when they perform at shows. Always. :( They did suck at the EMAs, but that's cool cuz the EMAs are worse than AIDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplaymom Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 They’re making the very best music they can and they’re putting it where as many people as possible can see it and make their own minds up. Rodie 42 Enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viva-la-coldplay Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Loved R42's blog today. Total two fingers up to the haters i.e. pretentious indie hipster snobs who disown a band when they get more than ten fans. Yeah, Coldplay got popular (God knows they always deserved it) and they want to make their kind of music the norm, rather than soulless, generic crap. See nothing wrong with that, and if they decided to go on X Factor then that's their choice. Personally, I thought they were great. Forever in agreement with 42 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
