How the hell did u do that?

Hahahahahahahaha.

Sorry, had to get that out.

Good song. =]

Extremely simple song.. but hey as long as its catchy its ok right?

That iTunes commercial with this song was awesome.

"Extremely simple song.. but hey as long as its catchy its ok right?"

I need to listen to this song some more.

"Extremely simple song.. but hey as long as its catchy its ok right?"

Chris Martin is an extremely talented artist, also greatly helped by a good band. He also has a very attractive wife.

Right. I mean, everyone knows that only complex music is worth listening to."

"I just dont think someone who spends 30 minutes to write a catchy song is deserving of having a music career. Anyone can do that, it takes real skill to add complex beats, harmonic bass lines, ear gripping guitar riffs, exc. But no one values skill these days."

The idea that the musicians have to be super skilled to make good songs is just laughable.

That's never been funny and you just make yourself look even more ridiculous."

"Thank you for proving your point. you have really let me leave informed about your side of the story and i am walking away smarter because of it.

There is really no use in arguing if you dont even know your own point. Calling my points "laughable" just "make yourself look more ridiculous" when i have layed out my point in an intelligent fashion as you fail at insulting me."

Good song. Great lyrics. I don't say that about new songs much, if this is new.

Joe Satriani's version? You mean Joe Satriani's SONG.

The following responses are acceptable:

In the pub quiz the other week there was a question about this song. It was a few lines from the song, and we had to name the song, and I was singing along to it in my head, but I couldn't remember the name of the stupid song!!!! So the song which  I once liked is now officially on the "Songs I hate for non-musical reasons" list.

So, wait. You're complaining about me just saying your case is laughable and then one sentence later, you're not even going to continue backing up your point? Look at people like Johnny Cash. He's no Steve Vai but i'd much rather listen to his albums than some guitar wankery. I wasn't insulting you as such, I'm just saying that if you're so correct, stooping to typing like a dick just makes you look like an elitist bellend."

never heard that song
:D

There is a difference between having good music and being inspirational. Johnny Cash inspired hundreds of artists who helped create a musical revolution. He also was around during an age of simplicity, take a look at other artists he was with, Conway Twitty, Elvis Pressley, Jerry Lee Louis, exc. None of their songs were complicated or even very good by todays standards. If someone names johnny were to go into a record company and play some of the songs he did back in the 50's-70's today he would be laughed out of the building. By main argument is skill to popularity ratio, if your into that kind of music, cool. But someone putting a song together in 30 minutes to an hour and making millions of dollars just because of that one song.. Kinda makes me cringe inside, specially if that song isnt even that good.

Quality of music is not dependent on the amount of time taken to create it. "

Not a fan of Coldplay at all, but I do like that song. I remember that commercial alot.

Time was just an example. putting in 30 minutes to make a song means you dont really care very much about the quality, but about the number of albums you can get out to make as much money as possible."

You really have no idea. Leonard Cohen spends months tweaking his lyrics because that's his style. Others find it all comes naturally and then it's just tweaking and editing to fit the music that's been created. There is no right way or wrong way to make music unless you believe that being able to pull off some 20 minute solo is worth more than a normal song that a lot of people actually like."

No, no, no, no, no!! And no again. That fact that this song is becoming more popular than any other song that Coldplay is making me extremely upset. A Rush of Blood to the Head and X &Y are fantastic. Viva la Vida is garbage. Please, go back and listen to Coldplay's old stuff.

Eh. Mediocre song.
