MADONNA'S SKIN SECRET *********
Type : Oxygen for acne - now on Ebay!
their song is called violet hill. not vilet 4:11.
NIN did it better. Louder.
Maybe they are doing this to take the spotlight off Chris' booty check-flashing "proper" wife?
Nice of them, too bad it's not a band I like. I just can't get over the fact that the lead singer looks like the typical short skinny guy in a bar who is a jerk, starts trouble then runs out just as trouble starts.
YEAR ZERO - NIN DID IT FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't stand them! I hate those arrogant English musicians who think they are just soo cool and above everyone else. They make me sick!! Artsy, fartsy, earthy, pseudo-intellectuals who eat the right things and are so elitist. I hope nobody buys their stupid album and they shut the fuck up.
oh, so they're copying radiohead again? good one
The album comes out on the 17th, not the 12th. And it's called "Violet Hill". Get your facts straight.
COLDPLAY SUCKS
perez - lovin your work baby but the song is called 'violet hill' x
umm england is only 5 hours ahead of us in EST…so that would be 7:15PM EST and 4:15pm PST?????
You can download their new song, Violet 4:11, starting Tuesday at 12:15 pm UK time (7:15 am Eastern Time/4:15 am Pacific) for ONE WEEK ONLY at Coldplay.com.
I just hope this song/these songs do not sound like everything else they have made since they began torturing our radios so many years ago–
CAN'T WAIT! It is Violet Hill and I think they've brought the release date forward from the 17th to the 12th so that it is released at the same time globally.
And they aren't remotely arrogant or 'above anyone else'… in fact Will, Guy and Jonny are really, really shy and very sweet. Chris is just goofy! Oh, and Cambel - Chris is tall, not short - over 6 foot!
Love them and can't wait for the new music!
This sucks!! The NYC free concert is on my freaking due date!!
They need to do another one…
Thats really cool!! Im Huge Coldplay fan so im siked about the free concert and single and the free concert is on my birthday in my hometown so this is juts awesome!! Thanks Perez for putting this info up!!
Thanks P
o come on. you suck. please stay away from music news.
the album comes out the 17th, not the 12th… maybe you should start checking your shit before posted stuff that's inaccurate yo
Coldplay is SOOOOOOOOOOO boring. Oh I know alot of people are their fans, but wow- just boring to listen to. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Violet 4:11??? —-It's VIOLET HILL—–
I dont care if Coldplay has decided to give their music away for free, they could offer me a $1000 to buy it, and I'd still turn it down.
who the fuck wants to hear these communist pieces of shit sing? fuck them and their shitty elevator music.
taking yet ANOTHER cue from Radiohead lol. God, does anyone really still give a shit about this band?
I read not too long ago, that Chris Martin said the group was disbanding. And he made reference to the fans not liking them or the direction it was going. Anyway, I think if it was anything it was him singing like a girl.
I think is great they are giving free their music, it looks like they are working for fun, they are making music for art, no for money, that's something to admire!!, They are really doing everyone's dream, do what you love and besides get millions and millions for payment, I wish I would have their luck, jajajaja.
Is it just me or does the guy in front with facial look a lot like a younger version of Hugh Laurie from House?
Re: they suck –
ughh YOU make me sick… youre such an ignorant idiot
Re: AGG – No, YOU SUCK
