Jesus this video is old..... has been on tv for months now (at least here in belgium, I think at least 5 or 6 months).

Anyways it is a nice video, don't think it is that special though.

I like Coldplay, but lately when I listen to their music I get a little depressed.... it has a bad effect on me. Don't get me wrong, it is nice music, but I do enjoy other music more right now.

Besides, what they are doing has been done by thousands of other artists, I don't think their music adds something to the music scene. I think they are a bit of a copy of Radiohead.... I think Radiohead is better too actually.

I rather see Robbie Williams for example, I like what he is doing. Making great music and being one of the best performers around.

yeah, i know the video is old, but i just saw it for the first time recently. yeah, the music can be depressing, depending on your mood, but it's such good music that i don't care. i can see the similarity between radiohead, but i think radioheads music right now, and coldplay's music right now are totally different. radiohead is totally out there (which i love), and coldplay still has that rock influence in them (although i think coldplay is better than 99% of the rock bands out there)

About as moving as a paper bag with the words "I aint really moving at all" written on the side of it.. the video had nothing to do with the song (except for the going back to the start bit).

Song = crap

Coldplay = crap

How can some bands as uninspiring and as pleasent to listen to as a washing machine full of nails like coldplay, muse and radiohead be so liked??

Boring.. usually slow.. and out of key

*rant over but waits to get flamed for having an own opinion* :rolleyes:

p.s coldplay aint ****ing rock... its indie

When I first saw that video I was amazed by how bloody depressing it was, as far as the theme goes. Then again, the theme is reversed, so that could be debated easily. I've seen that type of video done a few times, most notably from The Pharcyde for the video "Drop", and to be honest, backwards never gets boring... somthing about that jerky unsure motion that grabs me.

I've been a Coldplay fan for a LONG time, my guess is a few years before Parachutes was released. My question to all of you is how you can compare ANY band and/or style of music? How can we even copmpare their first album to their second one? They've changed as people and grown as artists and musicians over the years in between the two. Maybe its just human nature; we need to define what something is in order to process it, but comparing Coldplay to say, Eminem would be pointless, as it would be with Travis or Radiohead. Granted, music lends itself to eachother, Hip Hop takes elements from R&B and Jazz, Country takes from Rock and so on and so forth, but why can't we just leave well enough alone and see where it takes us and just enjoy each piece of music just because? My $.02.

Don't hate. :)

Umm, no. Its an awesome song. Parachutes is better than AROBTTH. Spies and Trouble are two of the best songs ever written imo. Both are great albums, but Parachutes is my favorite.

Oh, and thank you for your useless opinion Rivers. When you do better, insulting them will be ok.
