In response to the recent interview Chris Martin gave to Q Magazine this month (May 2010 edition), the media have picked up mainly on the parts where Chris Martin talks about what it would be like if he went solo.
Say the Metro and Monsters & Critics - Chris Martin said he has no plans to release a solo album and thinks the idea would be 'cringeworthy'. Chris said he had been chatting to Natasha Khan from band Bat For Lashes about the thought of a solo album and decided that he is nothing without the band behind him. He said to UK's Q magazine: "This is going to sound cheesy, but what makes a great frontman is the great people behind him. I had this conversation yesterday with Natasha from Bat For Lashes, who's on tour with us, and we were talking about how if Bono or I were to release solo albums, they'd be cringeworthy."
Chris went on to say, "It's still the same person singing, but the gang aspect makes you acceptable. If you take me out of the band, I can't dance, I can't do what Beyonce can do. I'm only surviving on enthusiasm and collective chemistry. All frontmen become shit as soon as the perceived least important member of their band leaves."
