band bit floyd growth left listen natural organic pink
On 'X&Y,' we're utilizing the band a bit more, ... In the same way that when you listen to Pink Floyd and the Beatles, just for example, it's all about the band. It's a development and a natural organic growth from where we left off.
anonymity bands benefits best biggest certain happy perfectly
I think I've kind of got the best position. I get all the benefits of being in one of the biggest bands in the world and have a certain anonymity as well. So I'm perfectly happy with the situation.
crowds fact favorite songs strong white
White Shadows' is one of my favorite songs on the record, ... It's just really strong rhythmically. And the fact that it's going down so well with crowds is very cool.

That was an amazing night. I remember it very well,
beach few good home length nine road sitting time weeks
I've never been away from home for this length of time before, ... By the time I get home, I will have been on the road for nine weeks. When it's over, I think I'm going to have a good few weeks off just sitting on a beach somewhere.

personality brain different
We have very similar brains. But they come out in different personalities.
song feelings trying
I don't concentrate on technical things like where a microphone is placed and things like that. As a producer, I try to keep the initial feeling from when I first heard a song and make sure we do what were initially aiming for.
school thinking white
At school, there was an annual school disco and I'd be standing in my bedroom wondering what to wear for hours on end. Eventually I'd arrive at a decision that was just the most ridiculous costume you could have ever devised - I think it was probably knitted Christmas jumpers on top of buttoned-up white shirts.
love-is artist creative
I'm never happier than when I'm being creative, whether that's with Coldplay or other artists. I just love being in the studio.
radiohead
I'm in love with a lot of things. Some of those things love me back. And some of them don't--and one of them is Radiohead.
song band pieces
Magne Furuholmen is a very dear friend of mine. A-ha are a classic pop band and they've got some brilliant songs. I'd say 'The Living Daylights' was one of my favourite Bond tunes: regardless of it being a Bond song, it stands alone as a great piece of music.
