what are your opinions on coldplay? i personaly love them, it's better to listen to at night then metallica.

if you have only heard the song "viva la vida", you haven't heard enough coldplay. songs like violet hill and yes are much better than that overplayed song...

Viva La Vida seems to be copied from the Joe Satriani's If I Could Fly...

I don't particularly hate them, but I don't really love m either.
They're ok, and I do know songs like violet hill. But I'm certainly not gonna buy their albums...

I am not going to post a poll. I neither love them, nor hate them. I have heard them on the radio and my daughter listens to them as well. They have good songs and bad songs. There are tollerable overall to listen to.

I like a few of their older songs.

The song Viva La Vida = Satch plagiarism though

I like them, but when you compare them to other artists they stand out as being alright. I like their first two albums, real nice alt/pop stuff, but again nothing really amazing or innoative.

It seems there are a good number of bands that have issue with plagiarism with Coldplay. Not just taking the tune, but complete copying and the only thing changed are the words! One of them that was copied was called "Songs I didn't Write". Coincidence or fact? Only time will tell but it doesn't look good!

I can't listen to Coldplay without thinking about their mention in one of my favorite movies - 40 Year Old Virgin....

It seems that after last week's thread lamenting the many pointless polls we've endured, there are many more polls this week than last!!
