I bet Coldplay will do 3 songs on SNL tonight.

[theu2fly]

Just like U2 did...

I bet they'll play these songs;

1. Speed Of Sound
2. Clocks
3. Yellow

I can picture Yellow, Chris getting everyone up.

 

[timothius]

Sounds feasible. Although I think that Clocks won't be played.

 

[timothius]

Of course why this is in EYKIW is beyond me.

 

[AtomicBono]

Because U2 was mentioned in the post?

They might play Talk too. Coldplay doesn't deserve three songs imo...I mean I love them and all but that should be reserved for...U2, and no one else!

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

Chris does not have the power like Bono to pull three songs off on SNL.

 

[sami0201]

I love Coldplay, but is it just me or is Chris starting to freak you out about how much he is trying to be the "next U2" or top U2 or do whatever he wants to do? it almost seems like he wants to BE Bono! and it doesn't help that in every review I have read so far, they compare Coldplay to U2

 

[kakvox]

Coldplay doesn't deserve to play 3 songs.

Considering the recent quality of SNL it might be a good idea to just let whoever is the musical guest play for the whole 90 minutes.

Yeah, now that I would watch!!

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

hey, what was the name of the last song they played on SNL?

 

[timothius]

I love them and all but that should be reserved for...U2, and no one else!

But why?

I mean sure U2 are in the top portion of bands. But surely if say Paul McCartney were to play SNL he would be worthy of 3 songs? What about the Stones?

Plenty of Bands are in Legend status that deserve 3 songs.

Coldplay really don't but I wouldnt complain. It's better than Lindsey Lohan singing 3 songs...

 

[XHendrix24]

Well, looks like they only played two.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

hey, what was the name of the last song they played on SNL?

nevermind, I found out the answer to my question.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

just because you find a way to mention U2 doesn't mean it belongs in the U2 forum. please keep non-U2 topics in the general music forum, bang and clatter.

 

[theu2fly]

The last song Coldplay played was called "Fix You"

It sounded so beautiful.

 

[X-it 7]

Coldplay's performance on SNL was cool. I've always been a fan of theirs. However, a lot of the time they sound like U2 on pain killers.

 

[U2IrishOne]

If any of you missed the performance, and want to see it. I found a torrent for it:

You have to sign up for the site, but it only took me a couple of seconds. Alright, enjoy. If there is any demand for it, I am making a YSI link of it for some friends, so I can post if guys can't work the torrent.

Cheers

Mp3's, please? I will gladly repost on YSI once I download them.

Thanks u2popmofo, you rock!

Yesterday's performance confirms it: Speed of Sound is incredibly boring.

yes but it also confirms that Fix You is actually quite wonderful

 

[zoopop]

I feel the same way.

 

[yimou]

Fix you sounds great !!

 

[hippy]

Thanks for the sound files!

Fix You is so wonderful

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I might be the only one that did not care for Fix You.

 

[hippy]

I might be the only one that did not care for Fix You.

Probably

[Miggy D]

Fix You = awesome.

And it'll sound even better on the record.
