That's really quite interesting. Does it sound real, though? I feel like this story doesn't jive with Phil's remarks on the website. Anyone else get that sense?

I LOVE the second picture in your spoiler there. I think it's like a still from a movie...absolutely beautiful. :)

So, this site says the guy in the middle is our Mr. Martin... hmmmm.... http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/martin-i-like-miley_1074679

I was just watching E! news and they ran a story about how Madonna and Gwynnie "broke up" - meaning that they are no longer friends. They said that their friendship cooled off once Madonna and Guy Ritchie divorced, but now it's really tapered off. These are all things that have already been reported, of course, but it's just interesting to have it on such a mainstream source like E!. So, nothing new, but still kind of interesting that it's just now being brought up. The best part was when they showed a side-by-side of her (in her hot pink Jetsons dress) and Chris in his Grammy's gear. They mentioned how long they've been married, which had nothing to do with the story, but it was still nice to hear. :)

yeah, I thought the same thing. :)

How great is that? Love them and miss them...

Don't know if anyone else saw this week's Grammy.com's "This Week in Music" article, but Coldplay was mentioned for an entire paragraph. It's a witty little paragraph describing Chris and Johnny's involvement in Ash's video and Guy's antique store. Just thought other people might like to read it. Here's the link, and the paragraph is quoted below. Enjoy! :) http://www.grammy.com/news/the-week-in-music-elton-rocks-rush "Coldplay's own artistic heft just got heavier...and freakier. In 2002 guitarist Jonny Buckland and frontman Chris Martin starred as a murder-solving duo in Irish rock band Ash's self-made slasher flick, appropriately titled Slashed. Unfortunately, the project was shelved, but footage has made its way into the band's new video for "Binary." Meanwhile, Coldplay bassist Guy Berryman is steering clear of axe-wielding killer ghosts to restore Scandinavian furniture with his brother Mark. Berryman's Antiques specializes in tables, seating, cabinetry, and even a Swedish bridal chest. Customers who find their purchased antiques haunted should contact Buckland and Martin immediately."

Can anyone check the whiteboard from the 60 minutes or South Bank interviews to see if any of those titles match anything from this song? That could give us a clue. Also, as I mentioned in an earlier post, R #42 said that big things would be happening soon in his latest blog. Is this what he was referring to??

Do you think EMI will listen to it to determine if it indeed was Coldplay? Or do you think we'll hear anything else about this? If it's not them, will EMI let it go back on youtube?? hmmm... Now this throws an interesting wrench into things. :)

Okay, all I've got to say is that sounds a WHOLE lot like Christopher A.J. Martin. I find it hard to believe that it's NOT him...but how did someone get it?? I don't understand....:confused: It's a really, really awesome song. Is this what Roadie #42 was talking about? Didn't he say there would be something big happening soon (in his latest blog)? Did they secretly leak this just to get feedback? lol That would be ridiculous...but so would asking a roadie to construct a giant solar system, so who knows? This is insane. My mind is blown. :bomb: don't know what to think.......

I totally did not realize it was fake. HAHAHAHA!!! I read it out loud to my husband and everything. That was seriously phenomenal. LOVED it. Keep 'em coming, #43! LOL

I totally think it's reasonable for a handmade garment. I think it's pretty amazing that someone could create such a thing! :)

agreed! :)

I get e-mail alerts from e-bay when things are posted that are related to Coldplay. I was so impressed with this jacket - completely hand made and really stinkin close to the original. I would buy it if I was in the market for a look-alike jacket that will probably never be worn by Mr. Martin again. Still, really awesome. :) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220608267837&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123

Big Mike. I'm looking for a video with Litii, but it's not up on youtube yet. They played a big chunk of the song while showing a montage of past contestants who almost made it the whole way - some who acutally did. It was so great to hear the music and Chrissy's voice crooning the lyrics over sweet pictures of happy past contestants. I lllooooooove my boys. :)

LiTii just used in a montage on Idol!

Yeah, Sheryl and Chad "Ochocinco"

Is it up already? I didn't even check b/c it just happened about 15 minutes ago.

No, they weren't the greatest, but it was still great to hear. :)

I was writing a paper in my living room with DWTS on in the background and all of a sudden, I hear the lyrics, and I'm like...WHAT?! Sure enough, it was Sparks! How cool is that?! See, THAT'S what needs to happen on Glee. Made my night. :)

AH!

I think it would be kind of cool, but I would want them to sing a rare and old song - like Everything's Not Lost or something like that. That way, it encourages people to listen to their other stuff, instead of VLVODAAHF stuff - not that those songs are bad, because I love them, just that I'd like to see people discover ALL of Coldplay rather than just their new stuff.

Okay, next stupid question - what is a twiglet?

got it. :)

^ I've been wondering this forever. Is it pretzels? And what is he saying??
