coldplay's first album was really good. I put one of those songs on a bunch of mix tapes at the time. 

next album was... well, ok- more of the same, but watered down and kinda meh. I think they've had some more albums since that second one.

I've always considered them contemporary easy listening I guess.  Just seems like the kind of music you always hear at a doctor's office or the dentist.

ok, cool guy. 

I have no qualms saying it was really good when it came out. friend of mine went to london and came back with an ep of theirs... thought it was great. when the album came out- had the same thought. the stuff since has washed them out pretty well, to the point where I don't bother going back and listenting to that first one ever. but I do remember liking a number of songs on it, and the sound seeming fresh at the time (1999?)

but dammit- I'm going to listen to it right now, and do my best to listen without the baggage of the ####-show they turned into... see if it held up.

 
For the last few weeks our English department has had the kids working on "job skills" type stuff. Writing resumes, letters of recommendation, etc.  One of the last things they have to do is go to a "job interview".  Various teachers have volunteered to play the role of the interviewers.

Guy that teaches next door tells me he has a kid come in and he asks the kid "What would you say is your greatest strength?"

Kid says "I can control my anger".

Yes.  Me AND Shuke.  

I would have thought the lead singer getting rid of that ubertwat actress would have made the band less swishy, but whatever it is they are playing on the radio is so bad I feel like I have to disown them now.

My spotify recommendations and "because you listened to...." used to be all jacked up because I have a playlist for the classroom.  

"Because you listened to Megan Trainor/Selena Gomez/Katy Perry..."

But I think it's somehow learned that I'm really not into that crap.  My recommendations are pretty decent these days.

They should try Auto-Tune to freshen things up.

yeah... ok. done.

it's benign at best. but taken with the rest of their stuff, bleh. still really like the first track, don't panic, and also like having cysts removed to the rest of it. as long as I'm thinking about something else.

:lmao:    Wish I could claim this.

 
Music snob is one of the world's most annoying traits.  Ranks right up there with political zealots for me.  If there was ever an appropriate time for the jay cutler meme, it's when the music snob starts passing judgement. Doooooooooooooont. Caaaaaaaaaaaaaare

It's thinking like this that gives us Creed, Jonas Brothers, and President Trump.
