    True....when you said in key thats what i meant, it just wasn't said lol.

    Fair kop - I've read a couple of quotes from him saying that U2 are the only band who's discography he knows off by heart, and that he loves ASOH, but I don't see your link between him being on a Who programme and guarenteeing that he'd join up on U2start lol...

    Just as it could offend Alex when you ask him not to say that, because he could be equally offended that he's being told he can't voice his opinion (and he didn't say he sucks, he said the singing style annoys him which is a different matter lol...)...I'm a Coldplay fan y'know, but don't get touchy about people criticising artists - we all are critical of genres and artists we don't like, but we should still respect other people's views even if they differ from our own (although it's always hoped that such people take a mutual stance)

    Very true, but I wasn't aware anyone had made that assumption lol
  2. Bono sounds invigorated, however. "Everyone we've played the tracks to has said that musically it feels like another departure," he emphasised. "The last two records were very personal, with a kind of three-piece at their heart, the primary colours of rock - bass, guitars and drum. But what we're about now is of the same order as the transition that took us from The Joshua Tree to Achtung Baby."


    Truly showing us how to dismantle the atomic bomb and taking a trip to another horizon, in a similar style to Joshua Tree > Achtung Baby?

    That particular article, the way it's worded, and the bird near the building, sounds really interesting - great way to jazz up an existing article.

    In regards to Coldplay, I've never heard a bad song or bad demo from them in all the years from listening to them - although The Scientist, Clocks and Fix You stand right up in their entire catalog, as well as The World Turned Upside Down, and Yellow and Speed of Sound are great. That video clip is stunning with the LED display they're in front of.
  3. let's end the Coldplay discusssion in here. There are other more relevant topics to have that debate


  4. Not a long one, for God's sake. Enough with them.

    How about The Lemon Tree?

    Absolutely, a month before the new album arrives a new single will be released. Maybe January 1, just like Window In The Skies.


    And it gets airplay late November at best.


  6. What about a self-titled album? They haven't done that yet. Maybe:

    "October Boy In War Completely Unforgettable When Under Joshua's Tree Near The Baby At The Zoo Going Pop And Can't Leave Any Original Atomic Bombs Behind".
  7. at the earliest it would be released January 6th, the first Tuesday of the year, or I guess it would be the 5th for the Europeans. Hot Press is one of the few resources I actually take seriously, given their history with the band, I'll believe them, so I think more than likely it will be February.

    it's a bit short for a U2 album name

    January or February sounds fine. Anything after March would be a bit too long of a wait.
