RobRyanFan Posted June 13, 2016 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 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.
Beef Jerky Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Everyone hates Coldplay yet they make a ton of money. So in the end the lesson is... everyone lies
PromoTheRobot Posted June 14, 2016 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.

Doc Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 I like them. "Clocks" is one of my all-time faves and X&Y is an amazing album.
bbb Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 I like them. "Clocks" is one of my all-time faves and X&Y is an amazing album. Clocks is a great song
Maury Ballstein Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 Yellow is pretty good. Everything else is pretty terrible. Not a fan at all, clocks sucks.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 14, 2016 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.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 they used to be cool but, meh. You just summed up perfectly the criteria for picking a super bowl halftime act.

It's just another dull & not very precise aphorism, trying to sound noble and badass. Paul should have stuck to paint'n & sculpt'n. Edited June 14, 2016 by Cugalabanza
