Andy14 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Hey folks! For the last few months I've been working away at a little Coldplay fan project I've decided to call Famous Old Painters. The goal was to build a nice looking resource for fans to learn about the writing and recording history of Coldplay's album songs. It's been a blast to make; hope you enjoy taking a look :) http://famousoldpainters.com 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMDB9 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Wow, that's amazing! You should let the band know about it through their contact form or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Amazing website !! :) Just one technical thing, on Firefox the text lines below the song videos break off in the middle and I cannot find the rest. And also, it would be cool if you could someday expand it to include the B-sides discography and possibly even unreleased songs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplaykb Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Saw this earlier on Reddit. Really awesome, and it's great to have one place where you can read the main stories behind the albums and songs. Great job and thanks for taking the time to make this!!

AMDB9 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I know it would probably ruin the look of the site, but you should add advertisements on the page...especially since Coldplay tweeted about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
