the scientist - number 10?!?!?!?

[::Hayley::]

was anyone else TOTALLY shocked :shocked: when the scientist went into the UK charts at number TEN! TEN!!!?? altho being in the top 10 is good, i was SO shocked it didnt go in waaaaaaaaaaay higher, as it deserved to :cry:
i quite upset...dam poppy popstars anyway :evil:

[dave's girl]

i thought it would have been a more popular single than that, but nevermind :?

[Tracy]

Well. I am a big fan and I am having to wait until the end of the month for payday so hopefully there are a lot like me out there and figures will be up after next weekend! :shock: :?

hee hee hee - i'm sort of the same, only i have to wait till xmas. :shock: the whole job hunting thing isn't proving to be to successful :?

[';']

i kind of had that feeling it wouldnt be that high.....but you never know it still has the chance to climb....

[brill as pie]

I have to say im not that surprised "The Scientist" didnt go further either, cause its true popsters unfortunately rule the charts....and also...please everyone out there dont kill me for saying this but....i think that coldplay actually released the two "bad" songs on the album.....WAIT WAIT HEAR ME OUT....Its that i think there are better songs on the album. For instance, i love Amsterdam, Rush Of Blood, Clocks and God Put A Smile On My Face. They are easily the best on the album, and therefore I thought they should have been released first....Scientist and In My Place just dont do it for me. But i'm sure Coldplay know what they're doing.

[Katharina]

No, it's good you're honest! Everybody should have his own opinion. I love "In My Place" and I think it was a well-chosen first single cause the song is pretty catchy! As for "The Scientist" - it's a beautiful song but maybe too mellow. My favorite still is "A Rush Of Blood..." and "Politik" rocks, too!! :D

[brill as pie]

yeah i dont what it is. In My Place is a bit, i dont know, too repetative and i dont like the way he sings it. its twangy. i think i just have issues with it. Your right its a perfectly good song, im just a bit funny. :)

[busybeeburns]

I listened to In My Place two days running when they promo'd it on Radio One but now I think it's the weakest song on the new album, but still a good tune though :)

[Katharina]

It's the catchiest but not the most brilliant one - I agree! 8)

[dave's girl]

I listened to In My Place two days running when they promo'd it on Radio One but now I think it's the weakest song on the new album, but still a good tune though :)

i remember hearing it just before i left the house to go to the lpool gig and thinking "this is brilliant". and then i heard the other stuff that night and i was :shock: 8)

[busybeeburns]

Your facial expression was exactly the same as Mr Dickinson in your avatar when all the new songs were played I bet ;)

[dave's girl]

hahaha, probably. and it stayed like that for a few days as well - it took me about a week to recover from the excitement of that gig :roll:

[busybeeburns]

I remember singing along to In My Place at Liverpool and I was looking round and no-one else knew the words :lol:

[dave's girl]

i was probably merrily singing along with my own little version of the words, as i usually do. :oops: although the lyrics aren't exactly complicated, so i probably stood more of a chance with that one :roll:

[Sweet One]

It's too bad that the Scientist didn't get any higher..it's such a fabulous tune??? Wait, who was number 1??? :shock:

[Katharina]

Believe me, Laura, you don't wanna know... :shock:

[Sweet One]

awww....who is it??? Someone bad?? You can tell me....i've got anger to spare... :wink:

[Katharina]

Actually I don't know who it is but I bet it's something horrible (since the charts usually contain mostly horrible stuff... :? )!!

[dave's girl]

christina aguilera??? :shock:

[';']

ewwww


noooooooooo...why? she's no good....nothing compared to coldplay

[';']

i bet it was a pop singer or group....ah i hate them. :?

[::Hayley::]

yes...it was Christina.... :cry: ... :shock: ... :roll:

[';']

nooooooooooooo :cry:

[Buttercup]

yes...it was Christina.... :cry: ... :shock: ... :roll:

Let's get DIRRTY!!! :lol:

Let's all roll in mud like her ... I'm kidding... :roll: That song and video gets stuck in my head! Don't you hate that??

[';']

yeah especially if its someone you dont like :x

[brill as pie]

oh man, christina? god thats got to be the worse...that video....shes so gross. she has got to learn to keep her legs closed....or if she insists on opening them all the time, she could at least put a pair of pants on.

[';']

eww its not even breakfast yet and i've already lost my apetite :x

[brill as pie]

MY POINT EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Katharina]

She is just pathetic. :?

[';']

she looks like a freakin alien with all that make up she wears sometimes.

i bet shes just doing that because its getting her a lot of attention...and she knows that at this moment britney spears is not going to take her place.

[brill as pie]

not to mention its a shit song...im going to write a letter to christina myself

"Dear Christina,
You are the epitome of crap. I am offened by your presence. Everytime i have to hear or see you I have spasms of repulsion...."

[brill as pie]

hmmm to harsh?

[Katharina]

not to mention its a shit song...im going to write a letter to christina myself

"Dear Christina,
You are the epitome of crap. I am offened by your presence. Everytime i have to hear or see you I have spasms of repulsion...."

Can I sign that aswell??? No, that is not too harsh - someone just has to speak out loud what everybody thinks... :? You go!! Give it to her and show her who's in charge here!!! 8)

[';']

well i hate to waste a good post but i'm gonna have 500 now.....hmm yeah she needs to know that shes not better than coldplay....

lmao...i bet if coldplay showed some more skin maybe their album will rise in the charts....just kidding :wink: :roll:

[::Hayley::]

not to mention its a shit song...im going to write a letter to christina myself

"Dear Christina,
You are the epitome of crap. I am offened by your presence. Everytime i have to hear or see you I have spasms of repulsion...."

[Hicksy]

just had to do it for the lads - sorry ladies :wink:

[';']

[brill as pie]

[';']

[brill as pie]

no im talking about strange girls who go to my school

[';']

hmm i wonder if theyre a part of any communities....because i've seen some strange ones :shock: :lol:

[ChRiS_MaRtIn]

OK guys,
just wanted to say I registered just to comment on this, cos I was hoping this was gonna come to light. Personally, I think coldplay are and always will be the best band in the world, and they shud continue to set the standard for bands everywhere.

However, I was actually quite pleased when the scientist *shudder* dropped from 10- 25. The scientist is the worst track coldplay have ever made, ever in their entire history, and Ive heard the Safety EP.

I mean no disrespect to coldplay at all, they're a fantastic band, but the scientist sounds like Lift Music, with lyrics. Quite frankly, I think its boring, there's on point to it. Chris's voice never rises above a monotonous drone. Johnny's guitaring stays in a very repetetive style.

Will's drumming sounds like he just started drumming, and I can't hear Guy, so I won't start on him, bless his soul.

I hope you guys take this into consideration. Cos without the scientist, ROBTTH would be pretty much perfect. The scientist is the worst, I still wonder what Chris saw in it. Ah well.

Night all

P.S. Yeh Christina's crap, but in my opinion, Dirrty's better than The Scientist

[Katharina]

Hey, that was quite a harsh monologue. And the only thing I am gonna say is: Everybody has his own taste in music. I LOVE "The Scientist"!!! Yes, I do. So if that's your opinion, OK, but I don't share it...

[Hicksy]

Harsh? I hate to disagree with a fellow coldplayer but that rant was complete bollox!!!! :evil:

The Scientist is a magnificent song - one of the best of the album!

:twisted:

[';']

However, I was actually quite pleased when the scientist *shudder* dropped from 10- 25.
if it makes you shudder then why bother posting this "info" of yours...

and I can't hear Guy, so I won't start on him, bless his soul.
and i'm glad you kept that to yourself because i wouldnt really want to hear it.

P.S. Yeh Christina's crap, but in my opinion, Dirrty's better than The Scientisthow could you say that....didnt you just say you they are the best band in the world....thats just putting them down by saying that about them.

you suck :evil:

[Katharina]

you suck :evil:

You all spoke out what I thought. I guess I was just too diplomatic! That was a big load of crap. So we don't disagree, Si! :wink:

[';']

yeah when i get pissed i pretty much let everything out....haha i guess thats the only way for ppl to see how i really feel :lol:

[Katharina]

In this case it was justified - without a doubt... :evil:

[::Hayley::]

*takes calming breath.. :x ... :? *
if you were actually a Coldplay fan u wouldnt insult one of their songs SO much and SO badly... :shocked: what did u think we were all going to say to your "opinion" ....'oh yeah i agree.. :? ' :o ok NOT...
i could say a lot more but i wont let this Post ruin my mood....ggggrrrrrrrrr.......... :angry:
i love The Scientist...ha HAHAHA to you :silly:

[::Hayley::]

In this case it was justified - without a doubt... :evil:

definitely... :x well said Ginger ;)

[';']

that was Katharina.
and we already settled this with ChRiS_MaRtIn...i think they learned their lessen :D

[::Hayley::]

that was Katharina.
and we already settled this with ChRiS_MaRtIn...i think they learned their lessen :D

yeah but i was talking about what u had said Ginger! twas good stuff 8) yeah i dont think they'll be back in a hurry... :-x ... :D

[Katharina]

Hey, we should stop picking at Pat now! He already said a couple of times he is sorry and we should respect that - even if we all think his comment on "The Scientist" wasn't necessary at all... :shock:

[';']

oh ok i see

yeah like i said before we already talked about this....i dont remember what thread it was though

[brill as pie]

ok at the risk of being outted by the coldplaying crowd....im going to have to agree with that chris_martin poster pat did you say? the comment wasnt bollox, the song is bollox. i think the description "lift music with lyrics" was perfect. it truely is a boring song. and i cant believe songs like one i love and i bloom blaum became b-sides...i just dont get it..

[busybeeburns]

lol I guess its just one of those songs that you either love or you hate... I personally think its a brilliant simple song, but other people have said its too slow or whatever. All I can say to the people who do like it is at least it made a top 10 hit... just :D

[Tracy]

My 2pence - I love The Scientist, Sara Cox on Radio 1 woke me up today with it this morning and it was a great way to start the day! :D

[ChRiS_MaRtIn]
