Q. Hi I saw a Coldplay video on a music channel once, I haven't seen it since but really liked the song and the video. It looks like they are playing in a studio room, Chris Martin is wearing a Rolling Stones t-shirt. Can you tell me what the song is and where I can see the video?

The Oracle replies:

The song (and video) you're looking for is Shiver. This was the band's debut single with Parlophone after their first release - The Blue Room E.P.

Q. Hi, Oracle, I'm 17 and I have an issue I really need help sorting out. There is a chance I could be pregnant, but I really have no clue as to what I should tell my parents. I know they'd be angry if I told them. But they'd be just as angry if I didn't. My boyfriend is very loving and kind, and he promised to stay by my side through everything. So a part of me says that I don't need to tell my parents. But all the same, I don't want to lie to them.

The Oracle replies:

Sweetheart, if there's a "chance" you may be pregnant the first thing you need to do is find out for sure! Go to a family planning clinic or doctor and take a test then if you are; tell your parents. They may be angry, hurt and disappointed but at the end of the day they are your parents and you will need to tell them. The longer you leave it the harder it will be to both hide and then consequently tell them. If you are carrying their grandchild once they have got over their initial reaction to the news, they will hopefully be a great source of support and comfort.
