Chris Martin's 80's Playlist For Rolling Stone I was reading this week's Rolling Stone and they asked 50 artists for their personal top 10's. Chris was one of them. Here it is: Coldplay's synth-powered futurism draws deep from the well of Eighties pop. A-ha, Michael Jackson, Kate Bush, Here, frontman Chris Martin names 10 songs from the decade that shaped the band's tastes. 1. "Hunting High and Low" A-ha 1985 This is from the album that has "Take on Me." It's emotional, and has the best use of seagull sounds of any track I can think of. 2. "Running up that Hill" Kate Bush 1985 It has effortlessness about it, even though you can hear how much work has gone into it. 3. "A Sort of Homecoming" U2 1984 I'm a bit superstitious, so if I have a new house, this is always the first song I play there. 4. "Buffalo Stance" Neneh Cherry 1988 5. "Sally Cinnamon" The Stone Roses 1987 We listened to the Stone Roses a lot growing up- they're like Nirvana in our world. 6. "Bad" Michael Jackson 1987 Michael wrote the bass line, and it's so powerful. 7. "Mr. Brownstone" Guns n' Roses 1987 When we were deciding which one of us would be Coldplay's singer, we made our drummer Will Champion do this one. He does the best Axl in the group. 8. "Back to Life (however do you want me) Soul II Soul 1989 9. "Orange Crush" REM 1988 10. "Brilliant Disguise" Bruce Springsteen 1987 At the time, all I knew were the cute butt and American flag. Today, I would follow him to Mount Sinai and listen to his every word.

I was JUST watching this. Nothing was on tv and I was watching it. I have all the seasons, but have yet to watch the last two haha. Marissa really annoyed me.

In a magazine I get they counted down the 100 best/worst things of 2010 and they had a really pretty picture of her in there. I totally thought of you when I saw it.

For me, No. When it comes to music, when listening I can't see their face so their looks no longer apply. If their music is shit, then I'm over it. If it's a show, their looks get old real fast, if the plot sucks. I did however enjoy going to work at my last job because the guy next to me was cute.

That is exciting! Please do post a picture when it arrives. You can just make a thread about it. Welcome to the forum!

Josh says what's on his mind. I think that's a good reason to like him.

The Killers Oasis Journey Goo Goo Dolls Coldplay

Yes, with her son Kingston.

I know this is a Chris thread, but Guy is so pretty it hurts. Here is a Chris picture to forget I just said that.

They need to bring back: Don't Panic Everything's Not Lost Amsterdam Swallowed In The Sea A Message Talk Twisted Logic A Rush of Blood to the Head (wishful thinking) I agree about Speed of Sound. Honestly, the song live just doesn't do it for me. They'll probably drop: Yes Cemeteries of London Glass of Water 42

I don't know what to say, except how sorry I am. We're all here to prop your heart up. :hug:

Is that a marshmallow polar bear in the first picture? That looks tasty.

The most important question is, does it taste good?

Pretty ace.

25...ugh

Even if Chris writes a whole song by himself he still gives equal writing credit to Will, Jonny, and Guy. So you will never see a song with just one of their names. They all share the credit.

I didn't like it. I LOVED IT!!! It's so sweet and is true to Coldplay form.

Where can I see the video?

Love it! Thank you for the link.

Does someone have a download link? I"m dying to have this song!

Phil is so sweet.

New Killers?!?! YES!

Angie, please pack me in one of your bags one day, so I can go on a Coldplay adventure with you.

Wish I had been there. That would be awesome to be in a Coldplay video.

I'm so jealous. I bet the band will show up...That's how they are.
