The whole album is Car Kids

^Wikipedia that bitch

These threads are starting to stretch thin.

Ehhh that's kind of a weird source though. We'll see!

I prefer "written up in marker on a factory sign / 'I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine'" :wacky:

I kind of want to join the club. Not because I think that MX is their best album (because it's NOT), but I hate being left out of things. :(

I feel like the way its written, they should have given it a lot less than 2.5

The tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties The devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes :cry:

Well, she says "you'd be MY king" which implies that he's king while she's a princess, which doesn't necessarily mean that they have to be related. You can become a princess through many different avenues. OR they're just really kinky. Who knows.

Hahahaha. FAIL.

^You, Joel, are obsessed with F7U12.

"NOT SOLD IN STORES"

I can't wait until this thread is gone forever.

No Franz Ferdinand

Although I don't agree, this is an example of what criticism should be like. Bravo.

Ca c'est qu'elle a dit!

Awww :wacky: It's okay. They can fist on the weekends. Wait what :uhoh: :uhoh2:

Toilet paper. The fluffy kind. :wacky:

Isn't that what a poster is? :uhoh:

:lol: Well either way. Requires either Coldplay or a bunch of solo records. I can't imagine Chris Martin solo. Ever.

I think it's pretty obvious that Chris wants to be Bono, which requires many, many more years and many, many more records.

I think the right way for a new direction is what Viva was: With the instrumental diversity and world music vibes they had on there. It was really something, from the bongo drums on Lost! to the sitar in Yes (my favorite song from that era). However, throwing some synths on a phat beat isn't innovating, because sooooooo much pop music does that nowadays. Not that MX is bad by any means: I think it's a really good pop album. However, it's not as cohesive as Viva is, and I think they were going for cohesiveness and experimentation this time around. And yeah, while it's a different sound to what we're used to hearing Coldplay sound like, it still seems too safe and I can't help but get the feeling that this has been done before. I hope they step back and reassess themselves for the next album. Because while I like MX a lot, this will get old really quickly. I don't want Coldplay to become the crap pop-tart that Maroon 5 has become. Yuck. I'd give it an 8/10, but Coldplay: Watch your step.

Well with the rate they're going production-wise...yeah :laugh3:

Silver MX. I decided for you.

Yeah I guess you're right :\ Still bitter though. (First world pains.)
