Oh lordy... Coldplay are back.

giving away shit for free doesnt stop it from being shit...

 

on the radio today i didnt realize that one of their new songs was playing, i thought it was the intro song to the OC....very original coldplay

 

I like them.

 

I think when their first album came out they blew every DJ on the planet and took pictures. Since then they've been blackmailing them to get airplay. I'd rather lie awake all night on a bed of nails listening to my dog lick his junk.

 

TBH I expected more ardent fans to start telling me about how amazing they are than this.

 

I would do that, but I can't be bothered at the moment.

 

My co-worker use to listen to them all day long and would hum to himself while just sitting there with his head on his desk.. all day long...

 

Ive never heard of Coldplay, But does having sex in the snow count?

 

No your thinking of Whitesnake.

 

i like coldplay.

 

OK, that's pretty funny.

But on a serious note-I like Coldplay. I saw them in concert once and they were awesome.

But then, I'm old and stupid, so what do I know.

 

we'll drink wine and snicker at all the kids who are trying to hard....

 

Coldplay appeal to maturing sorts, same way as Travis did. They have a clean image and don't swear. Further to that they both have lead singers who are of the mothering type.

Each to there own.

But hey you know I jest, I don't really hate them that much. I just think they are overplayed. There are a lot better bands out there making far more interesting music who don't seem to enjoy the same success as them.

If you like Coldplay you might like this guy, he is kind of similar wishy washy sensitive guy vocals to feel good guitar melodies.

i've really taken to drowning pool, mudvayne and rev theory.

go ahead, throw some stones at the fogey.

 

What what?

You know you have lost faith in music when you rush out to buy the new album by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss. What a crock of wank that project is.

I mean I like them both, I love love LOVE Led Zeppelin and I'm quite partial to a bit of blue grass too, but this new album is so lame you could melt it just by playing it too fast on the record table.

 

pfft. you bought music?

 

actually, the last cd i paid for was the best of john prine 2 cd pack. i love it.

 

Yes I buy my music. I believe in paying for it. Although most of them are shite, musical artistes invest a lot of time and creative effort into making it and they deserve a living from it. I have no problem with people free loading it off the internet if they can't afford to buy it though, the most important thing is that people hear the music. In the entire history of the world there has never been a time where there has been so much creativity in the world, and I'd rather pay a little a more for my music in the knowledge that someone who doesn't have shit gets to listen to it to.

 

i just get mine off myspace. i don't get to listen to much. my daughter loves country music.

 

Myspace is good for checking out bands, I just buy some of the stuff I like. Today I discovered M83.
