But it sounds like Coldplay have actually got blander. Their new song sounds like it was written by a computer or came in some kind of songwriting kit you can buy at Tesco. Honestly, it was on the radio in the taxi to work this morning and you can tell whats coming about a minute before it happens.
Maybe i'm not ageing properly. Am I not supposed to like this kind of bullshit as I get older? This is music for people who don't like music. It's music for people who like to eat frozen ready-made microwaveable Tesco chicken tikka massala. I'm not talking about the people who buy it for a quick dinner, but the people who actually LIKE to eat that garbage, that's who likes Coldplay's new song.
And another thing, I was reading this week that the scum behind that crazy frog advert have bought more than 700,000 ad slots in ONE MONTH at a cost of more than £8,000,000. Assuming that they are not entirely stupid, they must have had to financially justify that sum of money. Now, I'm no economist but does that not mean that they are fairly confident of making that money back plus more in sales? There is something profoundly and, I fear, irreperably wrong with this world.
Anyway, enough negatives. On the plus side for the furthering of culture and humanity someone has filed a patent on a 'consensual sex agreement kit' so you can have a one night stand and contractually evade any repercussions, i.e. you can agree to never contact the person again or not be held responsible for any accidental pregnancy etc etc etc. Really. I'm not joking, the US patent number is 2005/0057034. |
