Yes is about lust...being in a relationship and trying desperately to abstain from sex..."but its not easy when she turns you onnnn..." He is wanting her to just please say "YES" so they can get after it!

. Well at least there is a group in your area...I wouldn't want anyone do go without support for their inexplicable worship and insecurity. Get over what now? Why do you ask questions that have already been answered?

Wow...you self righteous defenders of the insecure are sure quick on the draw. Aren't you late for a "Female Teenage Angst Club" meeting, or is that what Coldplay concerts are for in the good ol' USandA? This guy is a troll, and doesn't like Coldplay....get over it.

My example isn't effective? Do you honestly think that Coldplay, at this point in their career, catch more flack that Oasis did at the same point? I suggest you check out some reviews of Be Here Now or Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. The Oasis haters had the same old repetitive criticisms of the band, just like Coldplay today. Regardless of how valid those opinions were or are, they were topical, trendy, and still only OPINIONS...(sound familiar?) . I would also suggest that there are many on this board that would read those Oasis reviews, and agree with them, while there were Oasis fans that would whine and cry that they were WRONG!! waaa! And what would those non-Oasis fans that AGREE with these reviews think of those whining Oasis die-hards? Hmmmm? Sounds like a pretty good example to me. Do you like the way Coldplay sounds or what they stand for, or how they conduct themselves or their lyrics etc? If yes, great, but get over the fact that there are people that dont...and some of them (GASP!!) will actually write about it in a newspaper. Do I NEED to "tell you" these things? Why not? Oh yeah, i forgot, how dare I, a Coldplay fan, see things objectively?! My bad.

You guys need to get a grip. The majority of people that don't like Coldplay have similar reasons as this guy does for not liking them. It just so happens that this guy gets paid to give his opinion to the masses. Get over it. If you like Coldplay, then like them, just because this guys doesn't, why should you care? Its his (and many other peoples) opinion. Pick a band you don't like that is commercially successful, lets say Oasis. For everyone of you that thinks Oasis are tired old Beatles rip-off arseholes, there is someone that thinks just the opposite. And when someone writes a scathing Oasis slag off, you read it and think "Yes, thats spot on..." while someone else cries out foul. Well there are just as many people reading this about Coldplay that think its spot on too. Why do you think every person on the planet has to love this band? Why you all need to whine and cry everytime someone slaggs off your mostest favorite band, Ill never understand, it smacks of insecurity and immaturity, and goes a long way to solidify the perception that you are just a bunch of nonobjective "fans" that refuse to see reality..its an OPINION...just like your opinion is that they are the best! You can plug your ears and scream as much as you like, but there are going to be a lot of people that dont like Coldplay, no matter how much YOu love them...get over it.

This is the type of song that Coldplay need more of...a song that has fantastic performances from each member...the drumming and bass are spectacular...and its not based around a string section or a piano riff...hallelujah! This song probably flies way over the head of the "Female Teenage Angst Club" that are Coldplay's vocal fan-base majority, which is no surprise. This song has HEART and SOUL something that Coldplay need more of these days.....and its about SEX...mega lyrics that dont spout insecure pretentiousness.....even better! 10/10

My point is fairly clear in post #7. Wholesome? Parachutes: Yes. AROBTTH: At times. X&Y: So far from anything wholesome or pure it's laughable. VLV: AT times.

hahahaha .... Read. The. Thread.

"Location: Guy Berryman's Bed " Get a grip...

From my point of view a lot of Coldplay's credibility is lost in its fans. There are simply too many people around here that will defend their beloved band no matter how shite a song or album maybe. There is no objectivity or ability to look at the core, the music, as the subject, instead the opinion was : If its Coldplay: I LOVE IT! (^^ see above post) I think it has something to do with the amount of teenage girls that Coldplay attract that are "in love' (please...) with the members of the band and are completely missing the boat with the music. X&Y had some tunes...but any heart the album had was completely drowned out by insane and inane overproduction. The group completely lost the plot with X&Y and yet the fanbois and girls refused to see the blatant truth that anyone with any musical sense or experience or taste could see...The band, guilty by association, lost a lot of credibility from the incessant "I LOVE GUY NO MATTER WAT HAPPENS" BS that the teenys continued with... At least that's my take on it...from someone who was lucky enough to see the band when they were Starfish and who worships Parachutes as a masterpiece...the band simply lost its soul with X&Y. This album is definitely a big step forward. Songs like Yes, Strawberry Swing, Loves In Japan, Violet Hill...the heart and soul are there. We can only all hope that they strip back to basics for the next album...lose the synth and layers and get back to the heart of it all and quit worrying about who they want sound like and just be Coldplay.
