Wtf is this shit? Were the first 4 albums not rock albums?

LMAO

 

 

Well tbh I expect everything and nothing from this album. I'm just chilling here like

and see what's gonna happen.

Are you really sitting like that, Batman ? If so, please send us a photo ! :D

 

I'm convinced no one around here would want to see my sorry excuse of giant Hobbit feet

I wish I could balance a tea-cup on my feet...

 

@Batman: Believe it or not some weird people have a fetish for feet (not me!) but sure I wouldn't mind seeing anyone sitting like that even if they had hobbit feet (like me haha).

Hmmm...there is A LOT of tension on this forum as more and more interviews are revealed.

 

And it ain't positive....

 

Not good.

Dude you have been around long enough, you should know that it's always like this before every Coldplay album. People will lose their crap and start getting angry for no reason. This is just a giant virtual cage full of angry monkeys :awesome:

Da hell do y'all want from me, I ain't gonna post a pic of my feet so that some twisted head can fap to it! :lol::laugh3:

Chris Martin thinking they were a rock band (and then finally realising that they were more than that)? :P

Look, they are good musicians, and they clearly can do rock... The thing is, they have always been able to do more (witness all their covers of and Chris' writing for other musicians through the years) - And it looks like they are choosing to do that at the moment

As someone that likes pop music, I'll live.

 

Do I feel that ...circumstances in this timeline of events for Chris' parallel universe numero uno... has brought about the death of the Coldplay we once loved? Yes, It's different now.

 

But.. if you love pop like me. Then it's just going to be the best pop ever.. and I will have to settle for that.

 

Like 5 years ago or something..I was listening to that song ..Empire State of Mind ..pretty sure that it's Alicia Keys.. and I'm like.. really diggin the melody. After listening closer- I realized they took the melody from The Scientist. And that's when I first remembered thinking that one day Coldplay would take this route, musically. The fact they're such close friends with Jay-Z and I'm sure he has his influence on him. And even Gwenyth and that whole life... he, along with the bandmates, all became mainstream because their lives were becoming that.

 

But there's another timeline out there where...Radiohead embraced Coldplay. And Thom and Chris were best friends... and Chris had Thom do backing vox instead.. and Philip Selway did percussion on a few tracks. And it was the most brilliant thing ever.

 

I take a little solace knowing that Coldplay took a lot of sharp ..and widely curved turns with producers that were giving them crazy directions.. to get to this album we're all bracing for right now. But the good news is they haven't stopped changing yet..

^ Very nicely observed there Lobabe! Who knows what might have happened if Radiohead had embraced Coldplay? The funny thing is, things have in a way evened-out / come full circle - over the years, Thom has been writing less angry music, RH are sounding more accessible, and all the members of CP have become substantially better musicians! :laugh3:

 

RH may yet reach a point eventually where they might be willing to work with CP, although CP may no longer want to... The irony!
