Coldplay is one of the greatest bands in pop currently. Their music is very different from many of the others currently in the fray.

Pop music fans generally are always the fan of bands like Coldplay, Coldplay is a band that really is far away from the head-banging kind of music. They have this soothing effect on the soul and that is partly because of the lyrics. Their lyrics are more meaningful than other pop artists, especially if you hear music from Enrique Iglesias, Rihaana- they are more commercial in their music whereas Coldplay is more targetted on a group of pop music fans.
“Fix You” is a song that comes right from Coldplay’s core music inclination as it has one of the warmest lyrics that many have ever heard and it became a cult song for many when released in their album. Another song is the “Speed Of Sound”, this song was released in the album “X and Y”. The music with which this song starts is amazing and really is uplifting for the human spirit.
Chris Brown is the lead singer of this band and it is amazing how he has managed to blend in the modern pop music with some soul-stirring notes and lyrics. His voice is definitely different from a lot of other people in the moder music industry and that makes it a treat to listen to him. Even the videos that are choreographed for Coldplay have pretty good sentimental value enclosed in them. For example in “Clocks”, the video for this song is so good that it deals with a very sensitive part of the human heart. You want your loved one to return back somehow and regret that you did not do enouigh. Basically, the video consists Chris Brown wanting all the tragic events to reverse back as they show and get back to the normal life that he was enjoying before the twist of fate changed things.
Another indicator of how different they are from other pop artists and bands is perhaps the fact that they generally appear for concerts in simple but styilistically designed black clothes, that certainly gels with their image.
