I love all of these quotes

Here are some from my favorite interview of them:

""Fame is bullshit," he says today. "But that was a moment where even I thought, You lucky bastard. Enjoy it!"

"We're not Travis, OK? We've just been doing horse off a hooker's back,"

(Not a Chris quote but i just found it in here and it makes me LOL

)
"University College, they recruited bass guitarist Berryman after he confronted them in a student bar and demanded to be in their band ("We couldn't really say no," says Buckland.)"

"That's one of my great hobbies in life...trying to convince Will that my songs are any good."

"Was I going to admit we are one of the best bands in the world? I thought, I might die at ny moment and I've been given this amazing opportunity with my best friends. And at that point we were doing ridiculous things--hanging out with U2--and I thought, I wouldn't want to be in U2, I am actually already in one of the best bands in the world."

"Please use your discretion. There is a strong possibility I will act like an utter ****."

"I might well die and I will certainly lose my hair".

"I do enjoy getting asked for autographs," says Martin. "I might try and act cool but it does feel good. People's enthusiasm gives me a real buzz."

"Radiohead gave me hope," says Martin. "They were the band who gave me permission. I'm a public schoolboy from Devon and I'm not supposed to be in a band. Well they proved I could. I thought, I'm a bit like them. Jonny was OK because he's northern and so is Guy. "

"Julian Casablancas is as much a geek as me!" he exclaims. "OK, he's a better-looking geek, but he's a geek! "

"There's a dichotomy between the wannabe rock star in me and the son of my mother," he says. "I think girls are amazing but I also feel really guilty about doing stuff with someone that you don't really like. I don't believe there is such a thing as casual sex. Someone always gets hurt. And I hate that feeling. One thing about girls is that I get scared. I get scared of my feelings being in the hands of another person. I know that feeling of waiting for a girl to call. That's scary.
"My mum always said to me she doesn't believe in sleeping with people before marriage. She's not being prissy. She's very rock 'n' roll--it means doing what you feel and damn everyone else--and she reckons waiting and committing leads to great sex. I didn't agree entirely, but I haven't slept with many people. I didn't lost my virginity until two years ago. If I was good with women I'd go and enjoy it. But also I'm obsessed with the band, so I refuse to commit to a relationship...I'm an ambitious little tosser."

"I know I'm going to get shit for saying this," he says, "but yeah, I don't want to be too happy. To write I have to feel slightly sorry for myself. You have to be in a slightly self-obsessed state of mind to sit at a piano for six hours and not worry about meeting someone for a date. My best songs come when I have that feeling that I've left the party early. And the other reason our songs are all about struggling and worrying and being beleaguered is my dad. He's a terrible worrier. He's always after the next thing. And I am too. Luckily the other members are more relaxed. Three other members like me and we'd go nuts."

"Of course it's rock star conscience. I mean, I am loaded! And I love my life! And I'm selfish. I flick through OK! magazine and look at pretty girls and I worry about my reviews and, yes, it's a cosy, cocooned existence. But I've woken up to the shit underneath. When you realise that there are rules keeping people in poverty because they're not allowed to trade, you wake up.
"And I think, Is it chance? How did I have the luck to be born here and meet Jonny and get signed and get success? I reckon there must be something higher. It feels like it was given to me and that's why I get scared I'll die before we make the most of it."

Will talking abotu Chris's cooking

""He should learn to cook. He has two meals in his repertoire---both highly dangerous."

i like how he only mentioned Jonny.

Fan: Hi guys, I'm Jen.
Chris: Hi Jen, "Hi Jen", that sounds a bit like hygiene, are you clean?
K/B: She smells very nice yes.
Fan: Thank you. My favorite thing about you guys is how humble you are. How do you stay grounded?
Chris: Because we're brillant. That's how we stay grounded....... I don't wanna be the only one talking , but everyone else's still waking up! Jonny, how do you stay grounded?
Jonny: Uhhh... I dunno.
Chris: See? It's like getting blood out of a stone at this time in the morning.

K/B: Can you tell the difference from place to place in the audience? Is there a certain part of the world that's different than..... here, different than England?
Chris: I mean, France is different y'know.
[silence, people start laughing]
K/B: Because?
Chris: Over here they go "Yeah!" over there they go "Oui!" That may can tell.

Jonathan Ross: Okay so when you were a young band when you guys first got together... how long have you been together now as a band?
Chris: 74 years.

Jonathan Ross: So how many copies? It's called X&Y how many?
Chris: 46.
Jonathan Ross: 46 copies so far and counting.
Chris: So far.
Jonathan Ross: No.
Chris: And five of them got returned to Woolworths.

Chris: This is the part of the concert where everyone can just nuzzle back with their girlfriend and eat popcorn. If you haven't got a girlfriend, just eat your popcorn. If you haven't got any popcorn, just eat someone's girlfriend....'s popcorn.

Chris: Each of us had very, very strict parents who would lock us in our rooms until we learnt a new chord. Will's parents were particulary harsh. He was not allowed food until he could learn a new Beatles song every day.
*Will looks serious*
Chris: That's why he's so depressed.

Chris: At the same time I was feeling like a bit of a failure
Interviewer: How can you be a failure after selling more than 20 million records?
Chris: Well y'know alot of people voted for Hilter.

Chris: I'm pretty sure that me and Guy would have an equal match (fistfighting) but I would never even approach Will with my hands raised. It's very good to be scared of your drummer, actually.

Quote:
"When it comes to girls, I behave like an idiot...I'm very good at maintaining my relationship with Jonny, though. If we had sex, though, it would ruin everything." -Chris

Interviewer: "What makes Jonny Buckland such an amazing bandmate?"
Chris: "Bedmate?"

oh Chris

whats this one from? ive always liked it(:

from the Spin interview
here's the link:

Chris: We just didn't want to repeat ourselves at all.
Jonny: At all.
Chris: At all.

´´That's just about girls. It's weird that whatever else is on your mind, whether it's the downfall of global economics or terrible environmental troubles, the thing that always gets you most is when you fancy someone´´

“Some people are into bondage... and some people are into crossdressing... and some people are into Coldplay. It's okay, I don't mind being a fetish.”

“I don't mind not being cool.”

“Well, I was swayed by boobs. Let’s face it. They’re fantastic.”

“I take the credit for being the only band member that everyone else has threatened to hit.”

My fav!!
“Coldplay is for people with great taste, intelligence, incredible good lookingness, talent, ability, success, grabbing of life. Coldplay’s for people who know what life’s about. They’re always entertaining. Delightful to talk to. Sweet, charming, incredibly good in bed. Virile. They have incredible success with girls, or boys, or both. They’re generally just the world’s best citizens. Maybe I’m biased, but I’m definitely right.”
