Coldplay have wanted since the release of their first single Shiver. I think he was playing the guitar and the voice of Chris Martin, to stop me and you listen first, and I was kind of a fan of Travis at the time, which have a similar style. When album Parachutes was released I had gained 100%, the album was one of my favorite and most often played for several months until one of my colleagues threw him out of my car window along the M60 motorway, because they said I played a lot. I also buy a newcopy, but kept at home, where I keep an eye on him.
