Will's name is the only one listed in that part of the properties section...besides ... B as in Buckland and Berryman would appear before Will's if that was the case

My music player (WMP) lists Will Champion as the composer. I'd thought that this was Chris's song. But Will has some good songwriting talent.

Noel Gallagher quits Oasis
It is surprising somewhat, but I hope Noel ends up doing solo stuff. He's very inspiring to me. Great singer and brilliant songwriter... I really don't see how Oasis can go on as a band w/o Noel.

Guitarist Joe Satriani sues Coldplay for plagiarism
Beware... There is a youtube video that is somewhat popular about this. The problem with the youtube video, is the AUDIO has been edited so the songs match. In the video, VLV's pitch has been raised a 1/2 step. And the Joe "I've never heard of this guy" Satriani's song has been lowered just to match the Coldplay ballad. The problem with it is it creates a perception of right-out theft... When listened to the actual songs, they are about 5 half Steps apart from each other. Hopefully this lawsuit gets thrown out. And they aren't even exactly alike. It would be like if Paul McCartney sued Oasis for using a similar tune/lyrics at the beginning of "Fade Away" as "Help." Just ridiculous. The easiest defense for Coldplay would have Kraftwerks come in and testify.

Coldplay song quote for graduation
brothers and sisters unite ... It's the time of your lives there's nothing here to run from... 'cos yeah everybody here's got somebody to lean on To the Teachers: "and I never meant to cause you trouble. and I never never meant to do you wrong. well if I ever caused you trouble, oh no I never meant to do you harm" Oasis if you feel like it: Maybe you're the same as me. We see things they'll never see. You and I are gonna live forever

Possibly more to this than expected...
Yes . . . like Parachutes II: The song is so pretty, feels like if it was made any longer, it would ruin it.

'Prospekt's March EP' will be shipped in 250.000 copies only!
I pre-ordered it off of Amazon. I ordered the UK import... Yeah, it was 2wice the cost, but I want the right CD cover. But I guess I don't have to worry about if I get it or not. I took the 2 day shipping, and said it would be here the 28th...the day after Thanksgiving (Black Friday...I work in retail, so I probably wouldn't be able to listen to it until that night at the earliest).

Good songs to start with that don't use chords but tabs instead.
I've played guitar for about 7 years now, but I've never been very good at picking strings individually. Dashboard Confessional has a few good songs that I have done pretty good with... "Standard Lines," "Age Six Racer," and "End of an Anchor."

Favourite song of the day?
Keep the Dream Alive - Oasis

The Oasis Thread
For the most part I like 'Dig Out Your Soul.' I do think it would have been much stronger, and would have benefited w/'Stop the Clocks' and 'I Wanna live a Dream' IMO. Despite that, It doesn't change the fact that Noel Gallagher is a genius songwriter. Anyway..."I'm Outta Time," "Shock of the Lightning," "Ain't Got Nothing," "The Turning," and "Falling Down" are really good sounding tracks.

"Sound isolator" for acoustic guitars?
I have one...but I don't have many uses for it...I had to look it up, but it is called a "feedback buster"

The Number 42
- The age I will be in 19 years: 42 - The number which comes before 43: 42 - 644,210 + 3,583 divided by 3, minus 215,889 = 42 - The number of calories in a Snickers bar: .......not 42

HELP! Quick Question about "Viva" and Lost Acoustic
thanks for the reply...but the mystery has been solved. My sister's friend sent it to her...but it does say Track 11 on it. Oh well...cool nevertheless.

Voice heard speaking at 1:45 into "42"
I hear it too. Another one, it's funny: In the ending of "The Masterplan," you can hear Liam saying "I'd like to be under the sea, in the Octopus' garden in the shade." real fast...it is hilarious.

HELP! Quick Question about "Viva" and Lost Acoustic
Ok, so I bought the album at WalMart...and ripped it to my PC. On iTunes, it mentioned a Bonus Track (Lost Acoustic) ...and as far as I knew, it wasn't on my CD. Well anyway, I go look in "My Music\Coldplay\VLV\" and there it is...Lost Acoustic...I just don't have a clue in the world how it got there. As far as I know, I'm the only person in my family that is even a big CP fan. Don't get me wrong...I love the fact it is there...I just don't have a clue how it got there. I looked at the file details, and My files say they were created on "June 19th" but the Lost Acoustic was created on "June 29" ...so, 10 days later. I never saw it there till today. But I haven't listened to the album much on my PC since then. Was the Lost Acoustic exclusive to iTunes? Or does my PC have a mind of its own, and have great musical taste? Thanks in advance.

Track Skipping.
Not a big fan of Yes...but mainly CSC. Everything else I don't mind listening all the way through...the rest of it is pretty awesome.

Am I mad for not liking "Yellow"?
You should seek out the Yellow recordings where it is just Chris and Piano...and he plays it slower...sounds so pretty.

How much piano does Martin play on Viva?
I know Chris is quite modest when it comes to his piano playing...but there isn't any piano on the album that I now think he didn't play...Many bands aren't able to mix in a piano in their songs and make it sound so good as Chris Martin or Ben Folds. The album is very heavy on the instrumentals/synths, effects, etc...but Chris is a lot better at piano, guitar, etc more than he'll ever give himself credit for.
