Mumsnet Talk

This one seems to have slipped under the radar a bit.

It's very, very similar. Go here and play the video link:

spooky!

tis quite similar

liked the video

And it's not that much of a common chord sequence... hmm...

Hmm who are Creakyboards, I like their song.

I prefer creaky boards version actually

Thread about this yesterday

Coldplay's version is better (not saying very much).

No wonder Chris Martin is touchy.

sorry, didn't see yesterday's thread.

UQD, I love you!
I have an excuse to like it now Chris Martin knicked it!Yay!

Am I the only person to find Coldplay inexcusably dull?

Nope, I'm with you Cali

They are the new U2.
For good or ill.

Cali, they are horrid, this song has stuck in my head though and I am ashamed to admit I kind of like it

that explains it - one of teh conditions of our marriage was that the U2 CDs were never to be listened to in my presence
inexcusably dull I tell you!

yes they are
boring boring boring
and those ridiculous outfits.....

oooooooooh

tut
tut

the video on your link unquietdad has now been removed

I liked Johnny Rotten's description of them as looking "like a gang of little poncey masturbators"

Johnny Rotten is right there. Bunch of whingers!

wow LOVE the new Coldplay song but it is clearly a total rip off!

Video still there as far as I can see...

yes it's back now, I watched it just after your first post but I went to show dh about an hour later and it came up 'this video is now unavailable'
