Coldplay Album

Why it's good: The guitars and bass do what they always do in any Coldplay song...create beautiful melodies.

Why it's bad: The drums are dull, unimaginative and boring. Then, Chris Martin just goes and ruins everything by writing "gems" like these

1) "What if there was no lie?
Nothing wrong, nothing right?
What if there was no time?
And no reason, or rhyme?
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side?" <-- Awful.

2)"Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you, cause I don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
Im so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you" <-- Jesus Christ, are you kidding me? Who wrote this? A 3rd grader?

3)"When something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to repair it
Any way you can
I'm diving off the deep end
You become my best friend
I wanna love you
But I don't know if I can
I know something is broken
And I'm trying to fix it
Trying to repair it
Any way I can" <-- Uninspired, cliched crap. By the way Chris, Nothing Records called, they want their Trent Reznor back.

4)"My song is love
Love to the lovely song
And it goes on
You don't have to be alone
Your heavy heart
Is made of stone
And it's so hard to see you clearly
You don't have to be on your own" <-- You're kidding, right?

5)"You see the world in black and white
No colours or light
You think you'll never get it right
But you won't be mine" <-- Doesnt even make sense...

6)"Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it's just comes undone
And everything is torn apart" <-- Again, Nothing Records wants its Trent back.

7)"Oh what good is it to live?
With nothing left to give?
Forget but not forgive" <-- Deep.

8)"Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I never felt this way before
And the wheels just keep on turning
And the drummer begins to drum
I don't know which way I'm going
I don't know which way I've come" <-- Hahahaha....this one is my favorite. I think he stole some 8th grade goth kid's
notebook and stole whatever was written on the back while said 8th grader was
trying to be creative and tortured. How fucking terrible.

What a shitty album. The only redeeming quality is that some of the music is good. Chris Martin has jumped the shark, ladies and gentlemen.
