Are those amps covered in rhinestones, or is it just the picture? :inquisitive:

Really wish I lived in London now :phu: . . . . even though it's really unlikely that I would get drawn for the tickets :rolleyes:

And I, in turn, agree with you Moses :D @ Juanif - I would have to say that, in light of what Moses said, Viva is THE greatest singalong the guys have (maybe that any band has) and it will get the crowds riled up no matter what the circumstances. I can't see them replacing it anytime soon, it's become a setlist staple the same as Clocks and Yellow (and IMP, I suppose :P )

Lovely new episode! :D

You think Fix You is cheesy? The falsetto gets a bit tiresome after a while, but I think it's a great emotional song with all the glamour and hype stripped away--it's pretty much a love song laid down in bare bones. ;) ANYWAY. . . I don't think their Live 2003 performance will ever be topped by any live band. Ever. So I agree with you there--ARoBttH era songs are absolutely epic songs. There are very few songs from X&Y and Viva that have that feel, but Coldplay play with the same energy and passion as ever, which I think is more important than the actual songs they are playing. In the area that I live in, there are VERY few people that even remotely like Coldplay, so I know where your worries are coming from. Generally, admitting that I like Coldplay means that several classmates will loudly proclaim that Coldplay are a gay and horrible band. Are you afraid of admitting being a fan of the old Coldplay, or new Coldplay? I'm guessing the latter, by your post. I think the only thing you can do is tell people you are a Coldplay fan, and then when they scoff/laugh/tell you that they are a shallow/gay/boring band, you can clarify what about Coldplay it is that you enjoy. Do they think Coldplay are shallow? Play them A Rush of Blood, Cemeteries of London or the almighty Clocks. Do they think Coldplay are boring? Play them Politik or Violet Hill or for heaven's sake, get them to listen to Yes! In short, people will think what they think; you may be able to convince them otherwise, or you may not. You shouldn't worry about it because it is out of your control. Coldplay will never stop writing beautiful songs, you just have to remember that whenever you feel that the guys have let you down with their new 'commercial, stadium rock, cheesy, plain teengirl lyrics'. Coldplay will meet bumps in the road, as will all bands, but in 50 years when Coldplay's era has long been at its end, I know you'll be able to look back proudly and say to people 'Yes, I am a Coldplay fan.' And they will agree that Coldplay was an f-ing good band.

:laugh4: I read The Oracle's answer and I was like :stunned: 'what? The almighty Oracle is actually wrong?!' It's okay, Oracle, we Coldplayers still love you! :hug:

At this point, I would be surprised if it was called LP5 :wink3:

:whistle: I find it really boring for some reason (believe me, I've tried to get into it and it hasn't worked) and the only good part is when the crowd joins in on the 'yeaaaahhh' bit. I would rather them start playing PoC again! Spies = :thumbsup: I would die if they played it live Aww, come on, THE SCIENTIST? And I'm mental? :P

:cool: It will be awesome.

I agree with what everyone says about Lovers in Japan being better than Lost! I can never get into Lost! and it's the only track on Viva that I don't listen to on a regular basis. They should replace it with LiJ, LiTii, Speed of Sound, or Strawberry Swing I'll probably get ranted against when I say this . . . but In My Place should be replaced also :curtain: It's my least favorite of Coldplay's singles (except for The Hardest Part).

Well. What a pointless way to waste my morning. See ya, Coldplayers :dozey:

Ohmygawd. I'm so angry right now! :veryangry2: :censored:
