I'm getting old ! What's the deal with Coldplay and Amy Winehouse ? Can someone give me 2 or 3 examples of their work that I can listen to that best represent their work ?

What stations in Vancouver play their tunes regularly, if any ?

Coldplay is a decent band. I would recommend Clocks and Speed of Sound. The funny thing about Coldplay is they try to act and play like U2...but they have about 10% the talent...but even 10% of the talent of U2 is better than most...

I just finished listening the new Coldpaly album - Viva La Vida and it's actually quite good. The music is broader in range, less U2ish, and the lyrics are definitely less whiny. Not a bad place to start.

I wish Amy would just go away with the other junkies and come back when she's done. Good voice but can't stand looking or reading about her shit.

Amy Winehouse, with her ridiculous hair-do and makeup, is in the media all the time, but I have yet to see one picture of her that looks good. Why is the media so obsessed with her ? Most drag queens look better than Amy Winehouse.

I know the names but not heard the music of either one of them ... time to put away the vinyl and go buy some CDs.....

I keep trying to get "into" Coldplay....some of it is just too cluttered for me.

My friends say "oh, it's layered..."

Oh well, maybe it'll grow on me.

Boy Amy Winehouse used to be quite the dish.

Out of dumb luck I heard both Coldplay and Amy Winehouse on the radio today. Can't say Coldplay did anthing for me but must admit I was quite impressed with A.W. I didn't know what to expect but was surprised by her voice. Now if I could only get over her personal foibles.

WOW, Winehouse is killer...I really don't think ANYTHING in America can touch that! Then, there's her incredible band.



I concur, just picked up Frank and Back to Black......she may well be a train wreck, but so were/are a bunch of the greats.....

I also like KT Tunstall a lot

Peace
