I thought I was the only person who hated Coldplay. I am very relieved to discover that I am not alone.

Haha. I haven't seen any of it, but my FB is full of people saying 'geroff Coldplay, you boring feckers' - or words to that effect.

Houseofplain · 09/09/2012 22:42

I like coldplay a lot Blush

shesariver · 09/09/2012 22:44

I do like The Scientist though Smile

YouBrokeMySmoulder · 09/09/2012 22:45

Am still enjoying it you joyless feckers Grin. Coldplay work well in a stadium with a big production, I wouldn't have them on at home but at glasto theyre great. And there's not many bands that have the stadium tunes for this. U2 maybe but they wouldnt fit in really.

LadyBeagleEyes · 09/09/2012 22:45

This bit is rather lovely though.

squeakytoy · 09/09/2012 22:46

I like Coldplay too, and I think they have been great. Yep, there should have been more artists as well as them though... preferably not JayZ though!

Bossybritches22 · 09/09/2012 22:46

YABU

Been bloody Grin

Bossybritches22 · 09/09/2012 22:47

BRILLIANT that is!!

Houseofplain · 09/09/2012 22:47

Jayz was awful.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

This is one of my favs to end on. It's a fantastic stadium song.

foolserrand · 09/09/2012 22:49

Did anyone else play the Amateur Transplants' version of Yellow during the Coldplay version?

Houseofplain · 09/09/2012 22:49

Chasing cars was our firat dance....I'm such a cliche.
