The Cave OneRepublic

I'm not entirely worried about it being hard to follow up on the album either. I agree, I am not sure how on earth they would be able to top the MX tour. I never doubt Coldplay though. VLV was a visually stunning show and they exceeded it by miles with the MX tour. I am not doubting them, but it's really hard to visualize something more spectacular than this tour....IMHO!

^ that made me laugh!! Today is Amsterdam (not sure why - sure, it's a lovely song, it just doesn't usually register as a favorite of mine).

still nothing here ( in north TX)

Christmas Lights!

It is very frustrating :-( I was expecting it would be like Amazon preorder, and would have received it on Tuesday. We were on vacation, and I had a neighbor on look out all week for it. I'm hoping it will come tomorrow. I also still haven't received my calendar that I believe I ordered in October. Very frustrating, indeed!

^ Agreed!

I completely agree!! The Hardest Part to me has a heavy Smiths influence to me. I love Johnny Marr. Tracie, do you like Electronic too??!!

Thanks!!! You should definitely check them out, Morrissey can sometimes be an acquired taste, but his best work was with The Smiths, and you should at least check out awesome British music!! On topic - YKYATCW when you talk about Chris like he's your personal friend....and people tend to think you're slightly insane

Trouble

^ uhhh???? Fix You vs. A Message

Molly, did you ever search out some of The Smiths music?? BTW - I'm American and I LOVE British music too :D

Incredible story!!! Another confirmation that Chris is the most awesome frontman evah!!!

In My Place

Don't Panic

^ the question wanted to make me ram my head into a wall.....:lol:

they should at least be logical.....my goodness if the oldest child is 6, and you're asking a question about a song from their first EP....sheesh!! I'm sure there were 100's of better questions she could have answered.

^ I listen to a sports talk radio station and they make fun of this song (and Nickelback in general) all the time. Now when I hear this song, I go in hysterical fits of laughter!

My heart breaks :( I'll choose for you, Molly!!! This Charming Man and Oscillate Wildly Not a Radiohead fan at all. PHOENIX

Violet Hill

October 18, 2012 - submitted by Tzukeet, New Zealand Q. Hi Oracle, I'm currently listening to Don't Panic, and wanted to ask if the high voice singing with Chris during the first chorus is one of Chris's children? Is this right? Thank you! The Oracle replies: Given that the song was written 6 years before Chris' first child arrived - no, it's not. It's actually Chris singing falsetto with Jonny singing the lower vocal. I mean, really........that question does not deserve to be answered....

Yes. This. I feel very "protective" of bands I love, and tend to hate most covers of my most cherished artists. I know it's probably ridiculous of me, but most likely if anyone is going to try and cover Coldplay, I'm probably not going to like it. And, I watched this episode and didn't like the performance at all. (I'm also pretending that the Fix You cover didn't happen...)

^ he does say that, near the end he says "I'm too drunk, man". Regardless, he's cute as hell in that vid :kiss:

M83 - Reunion

^Oh my, their catalog is so big, and it changes for me, depending on my mood. I always love the Behind the Wheel/Route 66 mix. I love Precious, Somebody, Black Celebration, World in my Eyes, etc. They are still phenomenal live, haven't missed a tour since the early 90's!!!
