Ok, so after having heard Speed of Sound and 9 other track of X+Y on "The leak", followed by their Live MTV gig where they played several songs off "X&Y", I was glad to proclaim that album as SUCK-ccessful and the band as overhyped-U2-wannabes. BUT today it was given to me as a present and after 3 run-throughs, I must say that I was dead wrong!:p
It is a very good album with some great tracks. It's not a ground shaking masterpiece either but I consider it a must have for '05.
I think that alot of my prejudice was due to the comparisons in terms of greatness and musical relavence with respect to my beloved U2. It made me a little defensive and started to dislike Coldplay(especially after his "wanting to be bigger than U2" comments). This was wrong. :shame: Coldplay is not U2, nor do they sound alike. CP is great Brit-pop rock and U2 is...well, U2!
