With a twinkle in our eyes and a spring in our step we bid you a fond farewell. After 13yrs of hard work, some of it fun, some of it tough, we have come to the conclusion it is time to separate and seek pastures new. We are, as founders, particularly proud that our child has grown up and ask that its new voice be heard and respected. We hope that as we consciously uncouple from the site and lurk, that you will be able to enjoy new videos and new songs as coldplaying lives on.   Love   Ian, Jen
