I like Coldplay, but so does my 50 y/o momma.

"Clocks" is a freaking awesome song. :D :D

7. "Speed of Sound" is also good, but in many ways it's like "Clocks"...
Martin got stuck in a chord progression rut, I guess :D

Their LYRICS are what I find most impressive.

18. I agree.
Unfortunately, I'm a lot closer to 50 than I am to 30.

1. A last ditch attempt to ward off crazy frog
Which arguably makes them a good thing.

3. Loved "Parachutes"
But they are smoking crack if they think they will ever produce the same body of work as U2 who they are trying to outdo by their own statements.

13. They arent Gods
But Coldplay isnt in the same league.Not even close.Radiohead is the only well known band that I would name as being their peers.There are lots of great bands out there but Im only talking about the bestsellers.

6. The most passive listening experience I've had in some time
I don't love or hate them. I feel no real emotion towards them at all.

12. I don't think I've heard Coldplay.
But then I'm not a thirty year old mother.

19. The songs are good - I just wish Chris Martin could actually carry a tune
I could stick a carrot up a cat's ass and get the same effect.

DISCLAIMER: I would NEVER stick ANYTHING up a cat's ass - just trying to paint a picture here, folks........
