I never understood the love or the hate for Coldplay. I think the best quote I ever read about them was “Coldplay is the musical representation of the color beige”.
There are far worse songs about trying to change your partner, which is still a better theme than desperately trying to convince someone they should be your partner. But a catchy tune can make up for some pretty pathetic lyrics.
I have the same reaction to just about everything from Smashing Pumpkins and a good chunk of System of a Down’s songs. And yet, I also like classic Queensryche stuff. Go figure.

According to Coldplay themselves, in a lyrical tour de force, “it was all yellow”
Chris Martin’s vouce annoys me like no other. “Fix you” is in my opinion one of the worst, whiniest songs ever. I can’t stand it.
If Thom Yorke forgot to write a good song because he was too busy banging anorexic girls.
