RobRyanFan Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 So, the signing of Chris Martin (he has the same name as Coldplay's head singer) got me thinking. What is the consensus on here for Coldplay? I, for one, am not a huge fan. However, I thought their halftime show at the last Superbowl was pretty good. What say you?

KD in CA Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Coldplay is firmly in the "I wouldn't pay for their music but I don't change the station if they come on the radio" category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Coldplay is firmly in the "I wouldn't pay for their music but I don't change the station if they come on the radio" category. More or less my take. I like a few songs but overall, meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Not my thing, but I don't hate them. They have a couple tunes that I will listen to if they are played on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just another dull & not very precise aphorism, trying to sound noble and badass. Paul should have stuck to paint'n & sculpt'n.
