  • Digging through the Strombo archives, we came across this segment from The Hour's 2008 Coldplay special, for which George travelled to the band's London studio. In this clip, Chris Martin talks about the band's creative process, the critical response to their music and working with Brian Eno.
    Oh, and he plays a little Elton John for George too.
    Here are the rest of the clips from this episode:

Doesn't have to be your favorite. But Clocks, and Viva la Vida for example are undeniable.... so kudos and long live...

    the key words were "more colorful" because they certainly have been going that route with the last three albums. It would be cool of them to get a bit more organic in their production of the next album but then again I'm not the one in the freakin' recording studio.
