I checked the forum and there is no thread about.. Coldplay.
They are a very good British rock band. Anyone here are a fan of them?

They are one of my all time fave band. Coldplay's song are nice, soft and not that rock like other rock band.They are more to soft rock.

My current fave song is Yellow and In My place.

I love Coldplay. I think piano rock just rocks.. I love Yellow too, haven't explored them very much (eeps) but I've heard some of their songs and the mood of it just moved me.

If you also like piano rock, check out Something Corporate. They're not bad. =)

Well, i'm not a fan of Coldplay but i love their In My Place and The Scientist..and..i think one of its member named Guy-he plays the bass- is pretty cute!One unfair thing that i noticed is that we always get to see just Chris Martin in most of the mvs..like in Yellow and The Scientist mvs but the rest are kinda like being ignored..well maybe it's becoz Chris is the most popular member..plus..he's the lead singer...well i dunno.I think the rest of the members should be featured more.

Coldplay...I like them. I love the "Parachutes" album (Yellow, Shiver) "A Rush of Blood in the Head" was good too. Most of their song are rather melancholic simple melodies (and gets stuck in your head real fast).

Chris Martin's vocals is very soulful. Ü

I think coldplay is pretty good, my favorite song so far would be Yellow. I think that's a song where you listen to it once and you'll like it. It's just different.

I still have much to explore for their music and I wished that I would of went to their concert when they were in my city. Oh well, I guess next time. My cousin went and he said that the concert was really good. Too bad I missed out.

i love coldplay..there's just so much talent in that band. I think my favorite song is The Scientist. such a great music video and the lyrics really get to me. coldplay is really different from mainstream music..i think that's what helps them stand out. it's nice music to fall asleep to.

Oh ya...speaking of Coldplay's MV The Scientist..
how Chirs Martin sang the song in the Mv?

kahel
11-11-2003, 05:37 PM
In the "The Scientist" MV Chris Martin took time to memorize and sing the song backwards rather than technical reversing. I think that's pretty impressive! Imagine the effort he did for trying to memorize the song backwards!

He's dating Gwyneth Paltrow, right?

gosh, i love coldplay. they're so cool. i usually don't listen to soft rock that often, but coldplay have some of the coolest songs ever. my favorite songs right now are "god put a smile upon your face" (the melody's just... :angel: ) and "the scientist".

Miss_gun
11-12-2003, 02:22 PM
Gwyneth Paltrow, yeah. I think they are engaged.
There is a rumour that she is gonna sing in the next Coldplay album...it's Just only rumours.

Holly gosh!....Now I know it's so hard to film the MV for that song! Thanks for telling Kahel!

Gwyneth?? I hope it ends as a rumour only. If someone would collaborate or sing on a Coldplay album, let it not be Gwyneth. I know their in love, but if she sings on Coldplay's album, how would Chris Martin achieve his dream of making the most beautiful song ever?? hehe.

And for the MV info, you're much welcome, Miss_gun. :)

i'd love to go to one of their concerts. they've been to germany a couple of times, but unfortunately i haven't had the chance to go to any of them, cos their concerts usually sell out rather quickly. argh. :dry: maybe (i hope!) next time.

I will go then! I think they are on a tour again...next year I think.

Please...include Malaysia in!

11-23-2003, 05:43 PM
yeah, let's hope that they'll be getting back on tour soon. i'm not really sure about this, but i heard that they're already working on their next album. so maybe we'll get a chance to see them live sooner than expected. :wink2:

Oh, oh Punk Rock Princess!! :)

Anyways, I like In My Place.
I think Chris Martin's kinda weird in the Yellow MV...Lol...

Hmm...Which album do u ppl think is better? Parachutes or A Rush of Blood?

kahel
11-23-2003, 07:06 PM
Parachutes is better than A rush of Blood for me. I favor the songs there more. But A rush of Blood does have its highlights like the famed "the scientist"

11-24-2003, 01:23 AM
I LOVE In My Place. Great song. They did a new version of it on the new album and that sounds great.. And Yellow is a cute song. They played it at my school dance and I was floating. ;D


myo: did you get something corporate's new cd North?

Jerria
11-24-2003, 05:33 AM
yeah i like them....really? did he remember the song backward in 'The Scientist' MV? Wow thats impressive...i love that song...and also i like 'In My Place'...the best one i think...i havent got their cd yet....>_<

i really like their meloncholy depressing songs that make u want to jump of a cliff or slit your wrists ^^

"the scientist" and "yellow" are the only songs i know by them, are all their songs like this? :?

But their song, "Clocks" are pretty fast..and it's quite good too. Besides that, In my place is another good song.

i remember reading a recent interview with chris martin. he said that he's getting a little bored of the same old tunes, and he wants some major changes for the next album.

12-07-2003, 06:39 AM
Really? Oh! That's cool!! Can't wait for their next album...
anyway, I hope he won't change too much....

yah..i've only heard yellow,t eh scientist and another one but i didn't like it as much so i didn't d/l it...
i luv slow, depressing songs..i dunno why..i guess i think it has a lot of meaning to it...no what i mean? i luv songs like ath..that's y i like rock...metal's a little hard core for me but it depends...

10-21-2004, 04:16 PM
you know how you use to hate this particular band and in the end you realize you'll like them as you're older? yeah, that's kinda what happened to me.. i used to think coldplay's lead singer martin was drunk..you can tell in the way he sings, don't you? doesn't anyone? so yeah, when you get older, you suddenly have this natural sense in you that tells you to appreciate music that you might not like but maybe will as you play the song again and again and start to understand the song's meaning. i have quite a number of songs by coldplay. i would suggest getting "yellow" (yes it's a good choice), "trouble" (my absolute favourite track), "in my place", and "clocks". honestly, i didn't find "the scientist" all that good of a song, even if it was one of their debut hit singles.. each one of us our entitled to opposing opinions anyway, right? :tongue:

10-21-2004, 05:26 PM
omg they are os damn great!!! :excited: ...i like scientist the most...its really very nice...the words are great...and the tune is perfect...god they are really awsome :angel:

the one ...yea i agree with you...i used to hate them coz the lead singer was like..looking like a retarded when he sing...especially in those live concerts...but as i grew older i slowly realised that its not retarded at all...its just a deeper physical expression of inner thoughts....

Seltsi
10-29-2004, 04:18 AM
Ohhh, I love Coldplay! They're so good, xD. My all time favs are Yellow (first song i ever heard by them) and In My PLace...the Scientist is okay, I don't overly like it either. =)

yenny1106
04-27-2005, 11:33 AM
haha i agree with u pple here! i hated the song yellow at first! the radio and mtv channel kept playing it.. but after listening to a few times, i loved it a lot! n i bought their album n loved their songs!! i thought they were a very different band from the usual US hard rock or metal or noisy bands (sorry ah.. to those who like such music..), and their music just gives such a soothing or calm feeling haha.. other than the song politik all these la..

btw, has any coldplay fan heard their newest song speed of sound? i thought it was very very good! but it sounds like clocks.. rsther similar.. can't wait for theirnext album!! =)

batman
04-27-2005, 11:49 AM
yay!!! coldplay! they are one my fave rock bands. i first heard 'yellow' and thought it was one of the most annoying songs ever becasue they kept on playing it over and over on the radio, but then it really got to me after a while and i really like it now!! hehehe...my other fave songs are 'god put a smile on your face' because i just love the guitar intro to it! and i also like 'trouble' and 'the scientist'....their songs are so catchy they can sometimes get stuck in my head for days! lol...
has anyone heard the chinese version of 'yellow'?...its really nice!....it was on a soundtrack..can't remember.....but i fink it should be in the house somewhere!....lol

05-13-2005, 08:13 AM
omg! i thought i was the only one who hated yellow at first LOL but it just grew on me and by now iit has become of my all-time faves.
and yenny! yes Speed of Sound is good.. reminds me of Clocks (my TOP coldplay favorite!!) as well in fact i think the guys meant it this way.. for Speed of Sound to be the bridge betw their last album and their next, X&Y. can't wait for the album arghhhh.

ftlouiea
05-13-2005, 09:12 PM
Oooh!

Speed of Sound was apparently the top song for downloads since its release (as it being aired, but not being released on CD yet).

It does sound a bit like Clocks actually! :happy:

06-21-2005, 05:23 AM
anyone heard X&Y their latest album?
i think its not bad but for some reason none of the songs really captivated me the way Clocks, Yellow, or The Scientist did.
X&Y, What If and Fix You are probably my favourites off the album. the rest are still growing on me.

I've been wondering how their new album sounds because I'm still deciding if I should get it. Any feedback, comments ? How does it compare to their previous albums ? I've always loved "Yellow", such a classic. It would be awesome if their new album contains tracks that run along those lines.....

Coldplay is definitely one of the best bands ever. :D
Their music is really cool. I love their Parachutes album best :happy:
but I think all their albums are really good,including their new one - X and Y. :shiny:

I never really paid much attention to COldplay until I did a fundraising event at one of their concerts and I got to be on the floor monitoring everyone at their seats and basically got to watch the whole concert for free!! They are really good live and their music is totally growing on me..my current favs are clocks, speed of sound, shiver, talk, and scientist..there are so many! defnitely a good band!

Crazygiggles!! I just came back from Coldplay's Twisted Logic Tour in Singapore! And like you, I enjoyed it tremendously over here!~ Same, they had these huge yellow balloons filled with "confetti". Very pretty sight! And throughout the whole concert, everyone was so high! And I must really praise Chris Martin - so energetic throughout the show, prancing, kneeling, hopping skipping,lying down & singing etc etc. Towards the end, he even came off stage & ran to the audience at the back! Surprised everyone! Lucky girls over there, got to hug him! haha... But I totally agree, that his voice is amazing! Very strong & mesmerising haha..Live music always sound great, especially with such a cool band haha..Can't get enough... how I wish it was longer!

Lukcy are those who got to see them perform live in Singapore and HK.
Anyway, I got some goodies for all you Coldplay fans.
