1. POLITIK 2. Clocks 3. Yellow 4. Amsterdam 5. Green Eyes hoorah.

hi i registered SOLELY for the reason to respond to this thread... hehehe... pretty stupid eh? well, i personally never had a great love for U2, but then again, maybe i'm just too young to appreciate it. Well, either way, I have to admit, i wasn't a full-blown coldplay fanatic until i saw them live at the Shoreline in May. There's just an invisible energy that can't be captured on a cd. Politik suddenly became my new favorite song, and i bought a blue/black longsleeve shirt way too late and it was slightly oversized... BACk to the point. It seems to me that everybody feels u2 was a band that "connected" with the crowd. Well, in the scope of the world of music, that's an INCREDIBLY rare thing, and we can't really DEMAND coldplay to do that... although its mysteriously tempting... but how do you really DEFINE "connecting", anyways? I feel that its already a HUGE deal to have a great band like coldplay in times like these when artists are selling out left and right. I'm completely fine the way they are now.
