14. Thanks. You are not boring.
I like some Carpenters' songs, although I'm not a big fan. However, I don't think that there is anything wrong with the Carpetners. :hug:

16. Don't know about the whole "ripoff" thing
but I don't mind 'em for 2009 pop radio hits.

Better--or at least as good as--lots of the mainstream pop artists I liked when I was 13 or so: Grass Roots, Guess Who, Rare Earth, etc.

Rather CP on the radio--the handful of hits I know by them--over I Kissed a Girl, the Kid Rock "Sweet Home" thing, My Humps, that girl fight song, etc.

I had "Clocks" as a ringtone once - it makes a great ringtone! I never missed a call. Lost it when I changed phones x(

25. To each his or her own, I guess.
I don't think it's bland, but I agree that it's not offensive. Music doesn't have to be offensive to be good.

26. The only good thing about Coldplay
is that they were the punchline in a joke from the movie "The 40-Year-Old Virgin":

30. I hated it at first, but it grew on me
and now, it's one of my favorites.

Probably because I actually own Asia albums on vinyl. :hide:

39. Closet Coldplay fan here.
I don't love them, but I like them enough to buy their albums. Which is more than I can say for most music groups this decade.

40. Parachutes is a good album, A Rush of Blood to the Head is a great album
Edited on Sun Feb-08-09 10:36 PM by EastTennesseeDem
The last two are...meh.

Evidence that Coldplay used to have balls:

42. They're alright. They sound like U2 and look like the love child of Jeff Goldblum and Hugh Laurie
Oh yeah, and the lead singer dances like Michael Stipe. But they are better than listening to Rush. Heck, they are better than listening to Led Zepplin for the thousandth time in a week on a Classic Rock station.

44. Actually, I have a big crush on both Goldblum and Laurie.
But, everyone knows I can't resist Jewish men or Englishmen.
