It's true: Coldplay sucks.

Spunky, you've got it bang on again. First time I listened to Coldplay, yeah, it was alright but nothing special. Went to see them live (this is early days) with a couple of friends. It was good, they were a good act. Nothing spectactular, but just enough to make me want to listen to them again. Gradually those songs draw you in, and you start to 'get them'. Nowadays, seeing them live convinces me that they really are special. You can really tell they've learnt such a lot as a band, and there's a passion there that so many groups post 90s are lacking in. So long as Coldplay carry on doing what they have been doing and progressing as a group, I couldn't give a shit about copyright laws, rules or whatever else the record companies like to complain about.

Very true - I find them boring as hell. And I'm not willing to stick around to wait for my breakthrough moment

wow that is pretty gay

in pools of pain
well baby tonite, i'm gonna go and dance in the rain

I like this quote. is it from a song- if so what is it?

It is from a song: QOTSA's Broken Box.

Full lyrics:

i've got wine and so do you
mine came with a cork
i wish yours did too

everyone just loves you so
well hurray!
now you know where to go

in my head you're all brand new
i guess you're really all the same
in my head you're all brand new
tell your new boy where i came
in my head you're all brand new
i just didn't want what you gave
in my head you're all brand new
go and find yourself another slave

there you are
ooohh you're so in love, just like juliette
Well guess what?
that's one thing that you can for-****ing-get

tears from the sky
in pools of pain
well baby tonite, i'm gonna go and dance in the rain

in my head you're all brand new
i guess you're really all the same
in my head you're all brand new
tell your new boy where i came
in my head you're all brand new
take that broken pussy elsewhere
in my head you're all brand new
save it baby, i don't care

cool thanks for posting i'll have to check it out.. is it a ballad or rock type song?

Ugh, definitely no ballad But if you're gonna check out QOTSA, don't go by that song - it's not their best.

No no .... I don't find anything good in Coldplay.

I don't know why we hear of them so often. I think they touch a "young public". Yes boring, empty ....

Glad i'm not the only one
SamboraQueen21 you must listen to "Burn the Witch" its a great song i love it

If we're discussing the new album, yeah. I've just got into Everybody Knows That You Are Insane as well, great song. I'd recommend Songs for the Deaf for anyone wanted to give QOTSA a listening.
