viva-la-coldplay

Lots of cute little Buckin moments last night at Glasgow! Chris looked to rest his head on Jonny's shoulder at one point (I have a picture but can't upload it :() and when they were coming back up the runway Chris linked arms with Jonny and twirled him round! He said something that I can't quite remember about Jonny being a beautiful mam when he was doing band introductions and for me it's all about the looks, Chris and Jonny always just seem to stare deeply into each others eyes :love: (so in my completely unbiased opinion it must be love haha!)

I won't classify myself as either an 'Oldplayer' or a 'Newplayer', as I like most of Coldplay's work throughout the years and I feel there's an element of musical snobbishness in those terms (similar to 'real fan') which I don't like - but I have to say that it has reminded me to delve back into Coldplay's back catalogue and rediscover some real gems. Their Parachutes, and pre-Parachutes, era songs in particular are just :dazzled:

I'm going!!! :bliss: :dance: After the stress of leaving my mum to get tickets - I was working - and getting texts from her saying that it wasn't working, we got tickets!!! Roll on concert #5 :D

- Love the piano throughout and the guitar at the end - I like the song the most from 2:50 onwards - Definitely unsure about the production - a bit too much for my liking - You can definitely tell it's Chris singing! - I feel like it hints at their ballad-y origins but with a new spin Overall, I quite like it but I don't love it as much as I was expecting to from the snippet - and that's kind of disappointing as I was probably most curious about Everglow

PLEASE DEAR GOD LET ME GET TICKETS TOMORROW ... that is all :laugh3:

So so stressed about getting tickets! I have a presale code but the experience of trying to get tickets for RAH last year scarred me! Praying that it's not too traumatic this time round... even if the prices are!

Musically, I absolutely adore it already! I love the bass and the sound and I think it's a really new direction. Lyrically, to be honest I haven't really focused on that yet or analysed it but they don't sound life-changing... That said, Chris has rarely been (with a few notable exceptions) an absolutely remarkable lyricist - but it comes from the heart, which is what matters as far as I'm concerned. Lovelovelove this :D

Love the look of the new artwork, hopefully the album will be as inspired and take Coldplay in a whole new direction (I love most of Coldplay's directions, but I've always loved even more that they have a different sound each album!) Now, as others have said - I'd just like some sound! Please!

Life gets so busy sometimes that I haven't been on the forum for over 10 months now but.... NEW COLDPLAY ALBUM NEWS OH MY GOD!!! This particular European has indeed just woken up (well, come online for the first time this morning!) and seen the news and gone into a frenzy of excitement! I'm praying that this isn't a troll... and if it's not, then we're going to have a new album hopefully by December ohmygodohmygodohmygod today is a GOOD DAY :D

If I have a bad day I like to hide in my bed and listen to Coldplay and pretend that the world doesn't exist and I honestly feel 100% better for it :nice:

Just watched the Magic video again and honestly I don't think I've ever seen Chris look as good as he does in that video :dazzled: (also I want a fangirl picture with Chris!!! So jealous!)

ugh dp

Genuinely a little bit scared to post in here now :laugh3: I've had a bit of bad day and I've listened to Miracles about 5 times just to calm myself down, so even thought it's not perfect and perhaps a tad more poppy than I like my Coldplay to be, it gets a solid 8-9 from me for sheer joy of listening. It's just a really lovely, uplifting song

Just treated myself to watching the Guy/Jonny interview - I'm studying for exams at the moment so that's how I'm using my study breaks haha! - and oh my god, I'd forgotten that Guy can actually speak! You'd almost have thought that he was a bit excessively talkative from that interview! No complaints from me though, any time Mr Berryman feels like speaking is fine by me :nice: Their interviews with Jo are always good and I suppose it's nice to hear non-Chris viewpoints about the band and their progression sometimes!

I just came here to post that review - but beaten to it haha! It's a lovely review, really pleased that someone has decided that bashing Coldplay has become rather passe now and actually spoken what I feel is the truth!
