I hope you intended that sarcastically. Because Gavin B raised some very important points about Coldplay, and also presented them intelligently and eloquently. The band do and always have had extreme weaknesses on the lyrical side of things. If anybody ever stopped to actually listen to the words and consider them with a little more than a pinch of salt's worth of consideration, they'd be struck first and foremost by their sheer vacuous insipidity. I could go ahead and start quoting direct examples, but the snippets presented by the earlier poster are more than enough to give an adequate taste of what we're talking about.
