Q. Oracle, At the 2006 Brits Coldplay performed Square One. Chris murmurs something during the performance in the beginning and towards the end. Do you know what he is saying? Around the 1:05 mark and the 3:35 mark. Thanks.

The Oracle replies:

He says the same thing both times; how can we be lovers when we can't be friends. Maybe he'd been listening to Michael Bolton before the performance...?

(Coldplaying can shed more light on this - during a Radio 1 interview in 2006 Chris Martin promised to Chris Moyles to add lyrics to the Square One performance...) [thanks SueDeNimes]

Q. Dear Oracle, Please take the following as constructive criticism. I was wondering why you answer questions like this- "Which Coldplay song contains the lyrics 'look at the stars, Look how they shine for you, And all the things you do, Yeah they were all yellow'? It's been puzzling me for ten years". I believe that questions like that don't deserve an answer. A true Coldplay fan recognizes the lyrics of ALL the songs that appeared on the albums and EPs (and even on the singles)of the band. Although in some countries the complete discography isn't available, a true fan has at least listened to all the "official" songs. I believe there are other Coldplay related questions that are far more interesting and therefore should be published. Thanks a lot for your patience and understanding!!

The Oracle replies:

You're entitled to your opinion Josh but I don't judge the people who ask the questions as I don't feel that only people who know every fact about the band should visit their website; it's open to one and all at all levels of interest. You have previously asked a very worthy question that I may get around to answering in time... but even the ones that some may find are obvious, aren't to everyone so all are welcome here.
