In my opinion, Coldplay are the best band in the world right now. I don't think anyone couldve had any more hits, or have had any more anticipation for an album...X&Y ripped through the charts around the world. They were the biggest headliner at Live8 next to U2 (who are the only ones who beat Coldplay)...
they really crept up on the world...such an interesting style...

discuss...ie: Love it or Shove it...

top band

although they did faced alot of criticism when they started..i remember someone quoted them as being "the softcore Radiohead"

eh, either way, its music. you don't need a reason to love them(as long as you don't love them cos your mates do).

I'm getting X&Y next week cos i've got exams and i need to work a bit before i go spending again :p

Rush of Blood to the head rocks

I wouldn't say they're the best band in the world at the moment but they're ok. I prefer Athlete - similar to Coldplay but 10000000000 times better - Coldplay stole a lot of their stuff from Athlete, so yeah, thats my opinion.

i like some coldplay songs but i don't LOVE them. and i can't believe you think u2 were the best act in ALL of live8. there were so many better performances.

Look. I know Coldplay is a great band with great hits, but saying they were the biggest headliner at Live 8 next to U2 is JUST BULLSHIT. According to online polls, Pink Floyd's performance topped, and for a good reason too, not coldplay. I'm sorry.

before i start...id just like to say i have nothing against Coldplay (infact i have parachutes)

more hits??? like what? clocks....and.......yellow maybe....

speed of sound is clocks backward....or they r incredibly similar...

ripped through the charts? record companies buy places on the charts...anyone can do that as long as they have the cash...

why do most albums come out at number 1?

if it were based on sales then the would start at the bottom and work their way up...

i believe the charts are purely commerical based....

Umm....how the hell do you figure this? They come out at number one because people buy the album the first week it comes out.
