"It doesn't really mean anything, that's the main point, we made it up, we conjured it out of nothing and we like the idea of having something that has no context, people don't have any preconceptions about it. For us it's like a blank canvas, it's something to start afresh with. I think making this record we felt freer than we've ever felt before. Part of that is to do with us having children and having different things in our life, part of it was working with Brian Eno again, he really inspires us to try new things and not be tied down by what we've done in the past so we really felt we could play any kind of music and have fun."
That's Jonny Buckland of Coldplay, proving that Coldplay are a band (of bedwetters) though head play Chris Martin had this to add "We've just been experimenting like we've never done before. We've not been afraid to try lots of different things, we've worked with people and collaborated with people and we've just felt a great sense of liberation."
Coldplay isn't the worst band on earth (close, but not the WORST) but they are more irritating than U2. Bono is a self-proclaimed ego centric with a messiah complex, Coldplay are the St. Paul of rock: they keep on getting blinded on the road to Damascus and seeing the light. yes, they have learnt humility while they tell the millions why they should follow them. Yuck, that was a crap analogy but you get the point.
What can you say about nonsense like "it doesn't mean anything…"? It might not COUNT for anything, but it has meaning: the meaning is that it is crappy, crappy crappy lost love story.
