Doesn't that mean "live the life" or something? They're OK. I liked that "Clocks" song for a few months, then got over it.

Cold Play sucks..........give a listen to My Morning Jacket, The Frames, The National or Belle & Sebastian

Most music that is so "called" popular, is only popular b/c of marketing BS, the real good tunes of today are the songs nobody ever heard of.

Right. Music that people can hear and enjoy sucks. The crap that your buddy plays in his basement is the good stuff.

Coldplay, U2.... sounds the same... same drivel....

If I never hear a song off of this album, my life will actually be better off that if I did actually hear it

I am still willing to poke a pencil thru my eardrums every time I hear one of Coldplay's earlier songs... so it is a safe bet my life will be better off without listening to any more of their musical excrement

Haven't you got children to call sluts, Mr. Banned One?

Hmmm.. and never have I stated DLR has more than what he is to me... an entertaining front man in front of one of the most popular and fun bands of their time.... Not going to be comparing his vocals with Placido Domingo or whomever


But at least any of the music he has ever put out has not made me want to wretch like the snorefests that Coldplay puts out... I will still contend that men who like Coldplay have a motivation of trying to impress a woman about their sensitivity, because they can't do it with masculinity

So I went to YouTube to see what you guys are talking about. Elevator Music for the 21st century. (I guess--I haven't been in an elevator since the 20th century.)

The guys voice brought to mind of the kids in Bart Simpson's boy band singing "Yvan eht Nioj" before they put it through the Navy's voice synthesizer.

It's a tired refrain. But then all of your retorts are strained and tired.

I'm not a fan of Cold Play myself. But I do understand that it takes all kinds. Which you don't obviously get. Figures.

Besides, aren't there lots of hippies that like Van Halen too?

Coldplay is kind of "Radiohead Lite", but they make some respectable stuff.
