Coldplay: Best Mood Music?

Just a poll to see if Coldplay works for you as "mood music", i.e., music to set the tone when with that special someone. In my experience, Coldplay is absolutely PERFECT for that sorta thing...their albums have a certain fluidness and consistency to them- no loud song, then soft song, then loud, soft, soft, loud...it's quite nice. No having to switch music in the middle of things. ;) I just put Parachutes or Rush of Blood on loop in iTunes, and the ladies swoon. How bout you?

I hate them, I always choose another type of music to get the mood...

coldplay is awesome... no need to skip a single song on there 2 albums... i think that says enough

#34833

I like just a couple of songs, I think they have talent, but I dont consider them that good for the mood.

if i have to recomand any type of "pop" (i donno what kind of genre this is),

i would recomand a-ha, thats a group from norway, who is in the same genre as coldplay, and the singer in coldplay did say once that he is a big fan of a-ha :o

btw some may remeber a-ha's hit in the 80's "take on me" whit that funny cartoon movie, just wanna let u guys know :canadian:

btw i voted nr.2 :ninja:

peace

Is disappointment a mood?

I just checked out coldplay, I was dissapointed. I thought it would be a difference from all the pop music that's out there.

I don't know do you also think that all music that has come out in the last 10 years is either;

1.) Musically unsophisticated, screams and squeaking yelps, ((US style) i.e. punk, screw everything, screw life, screw teachers, screw parents, screw money, hell screw music, screw melodic awe, screw thinking, screw self reflection and screw myself-->, Linkin Park, Adema, etc, etc) aimed at the millions of infantile wannabe (fake) rebels, who are so profitably convinced by record compabies that yes, the people they see around them who have what they can't, who they admire so much, do have an air of disregard to certain issues, and that yes, even you, lucky you, when you screw everything you too will have the admiration of your fellow confused minions.

Instead of showing that the real (as opposed to wannabe) rebels were people who knew exactly what to dismiss or overlook, and what to relish.

and

2.) Musically much more sophisticated, though droning, dreary, monotonous, dull whining men, ((British pop) i.e. Blur, Suede, etc, derivative and commonplace weeping and howling men, who's conceit and self-importance screams at the poor girl playing violin on the studio take for getting her pitch wrong. Call everyone an amateur because you are (surely must be) the artieste, treat everbody with disdain because you simply cannot understand that the money didn't change your status, you yourself assume you are more important now that you have it. Therefore walk around like a pompous snob, while the people you treat with such contempt call you sir (read: "git"). Think that you are god's gift to music because everybody in the UK feels as bad as you do when they listen to your music and therefore buy more of it.

I dunno dude, it seems like music in the '00's just turned into fastfood,

and it PISSES me off that all young children's perception of it (and therefore: passion/sentiment) becomes so twisted merely because some fat, dumb powerhungry, egotrip, moneyslave, cowboy hat, leather boots, record producer wants to make even more money so that he can outbid his 28 year old penthouse pet wife's new husband on that rising stock, so he can buy that 60,000 acre ranch and devastate cassanova and win her back, so that he can show her off to his golfing buddies again and win back his self respect, which he still hasn't realised has nothing to do with them,.. or her.

All the while the kids in the world listen to: "I wanna diiieeee, I wanna diiiieee".

i find rammstein or nine inch nails sets the tone for an evening of hardcore action with the ladies works quite nicely

and yes, i said ladies
