I'm not being funny or anything, but all the people who've commented on this article...and slated it, one question. WHY HAVE YOU EVEN BOTHERED TO COMMENT IF YOU HATE COLDPLAY OR THE NEW SONG? I'm not saying you can't slate it, but its_rudimentary, why go around saying "bland, souless people"? There are clearly Coldplay fans who like the band and want to make a fair comment. Stop discriminating against other music fans just because their tastes aren't the same as yours, we're all different. You people who have backed its_rudimentary, can't hate Coldplay that much if you can be bothered to click the link bringing you to articles such as this. Why take the time out to do so, when you could comment on bands you do like..End of rant, just wanted to get that across. As for the actual download, i didn't have a problem with downloading it, and i think 'Violet Hill' shows a new direction for Coldplay. Fans shouldn't start saying i don't like Coldplay now, or Chris Martin has gone mad, because 2008 seems to be the year for change. I mean, we've got hip hop at Glastonbury, and PATD have gone folk, why shouldn't Coldplay change too? Let's give 'Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends' a chance, it could be the record of the year.
