I never have understood what the appeal of Coldplay was lol
I'm not a huge fan but they make some good music. I really liked their debut album but completely fell off by the time they released that Daft Punk ripoff
Side note about that track: You don't even have to change the bpm or key. Just put the tracks on top of each other and line it up. It's nearly the same song with different vocals
Which tracks?
Get Lucky and...I think the Coldplay song is called Adventure of a Lifetime
[Edit] I forgot how bad the music video was
That was very unpleasant to watch. I had to stop a few minutes in. Oof.
The animation reminds me of early Cool 3d World animations and not in a good way.
Yeah I have no idea what they were thinking, it looks so cheap. Either fully commit to the bit of janky graphics or don't use them at all.
Not an avid listener, but The Scientist (2002, so... old) really sunk in for me when I heard it. His voice gets criticized but I think it fits in perfectly with that song's subject matter as an exploration of grief and unsuccessfully trying to confront trauma with reason and logic.
Haven't listened to anything newer that that, so ignorance is bliss over here!
If you've never seen the video, this is a rare example where it adds really valuable context to the song itself.
