A fantastic British Alternative Rock Band(experimented with many different genres by now), band consists of Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, and Will Champion. They have released 6 studio albums to date, Parachutes, A Rush of Blood to the Head, X and Y, Viva La Vida or Death and all his Friends, Mylo Xyloto, and their latest being Ghost Stories in 2014. All the members are very talented and have equal parts in most songs. Coldplay has their own unique sound and every one of their albums has it's own unique sound which is fucking awesome, seriously they have never made the same album twice. One of the biggest selling acts of the 2000s so far. Liked by many by Criticized by some on here that for some reason hate music that isn't all repetitive pop bullshit, so kindly suck my ass if you don't like them. Have songs that are slow and mellow but still great, and also really high energy songs. Also are amazing live. Major hits include Viva la Vida, Clocks, Paradise, The Scientist, Yellow, Fix You, Speed of Sound, A Sky Full Of Stars
I turned on the radio and Coldplay came on and my day immediately became better.

A verb. To coldplay. The act of taking someone else's idea and passing it off as your own.
Man 1: Hey check out this cool hat
Man 2: Yeah thats a pretty sweet item of headgear there

*later*

Man 1: Hey whats that on your head?
Man 2: Oh, um, nothing...
Man 1: Dude you totally coldplayed my idea.

A forgotten secret Nazi vengeance weapon next to the V1 flying bomb and the V2 rocket.
The use of Coldplay on the civil population causes severe social problems such as: mass depression, mass self-pity, mass nausea
and also brutal anger in partially immune civilians.
Long term effects include severe debilitation and apathy.
Coldplay on the radio:
"Is there anybody lost and hurt(...)"

1. A band that writes easily accessible music that happens to be entirely void of meaningful substance.

2. Adult contemporary emo

3. Shit on a stick

Noise that people call music and every song sounds the same.

Just a way for people to be cool
The sound of styrofoam rubbing together is Coldplay.
