I get them, great songs, good vibe and all. The only thing is Chris Martin doesnt cope too well with the live singing bit.

Lighten up haters.
I'm sure once you are out to lunch, in the middle of a field with thousands of people, it is quite enjoyable.

1st album was great, but after that he really can't sing!

Chris Martin doesn't cope with the making entertaining music bit. Never has a band uninspired me as much as these limp wristed so-called musicians.
Dull as fook!

My daughter thinks they are great, which makes me think that my parenting skills are not as good as they could have been.

Oh, c'mon guys, without Coldplay, how else would we know what Beige sounds like?
But yeah, you're right.
Utter, utter, Bilge..

Apparently you should never confess to liking them on a first date....

A friend recently tipped me off to Rastamouse. Its quality, never had those kind of programs when I was a kid. It was all Willow the wisp and Ivor the engine.

Chemical Bros on bbc 3 - that's how to do a light show!
Also how good was Janelle Monae earlier?

Clearly rubbish. That's why they've not sold many records, or had the opportunity to play at big festivals. Poor buggers, bet they wish they were successful.

Bland crap sells - see the X-Factor, JLS, James Blunt, U2 etc...

They hit upon a successful formula and milked it. I think they're ok, don't see why they're hated so much tbh.

selling lots of records = success = artistic merit

Having watched coldplay and u2 last night my verdict is
coldplay 1 u2 0The pyramid looked brilliant at the end.

Tepid music with generic emotion anyone can project a connection onto. It's awfully "lite", 1 calory of emotive expression. I'll sing along to anything with a bunch of fellow drunk people, because it's fun to do not because the music is any good.
It is lucrative, however.
I love how it's hard to tell whether you like the irony in something or the genuine worth when drunk. This is why I currently have a beer.

selling lots of records = success = gullible 'sheep' who buy into the hype.
Oh, & Coldplay are utter, utter shit btw.

selling lots of records = success = gullible 'sheep' who buy into the hype + a touch of jealousy.
It's a strange British trait this one, we like success, but not too much mind.
Weren't they being done for plagiarism, or something a while back?Posted 11 months ago # -

What complete and utter unmitigated bollocks. Fair enough not liking a band but why on earth is someone gullible for liking them?FWIW I don't like them (although Yellow was beautiful) but some people like some music, others other.
Perhaps it's cool not to like them I don't know.

If you formed a focus group of middle-England radio 2 listeners and asked them what music should be about, the result would be Coldplay
I'm actually convinced that this is how they came about. Which actually makes them more cynical than Simon Cowell. And also makes me despair in this nations propensity for dull mediocrity. Music for the terminally unimaginative I'm afraid.
Oh... and if you want quality, beautifully crafted music, delivered with style and panache then check out Elbow's set from earlier on. Everything Coldplay aren't

Odd then, that their stuff hardly ever gets played on Radio 2
Surely they are the current parallel to U2. Big stadium band, fairly simple song structures, highly polished sound, bit emotive. Kind of like Elbow
